General Features
Depending on the type of load and size, washers can be divided into three categories: top-load, front-load and portable.
Whirlpool WTW4800XQ and GE GTWN3000MWS belong to the top-load series and they will be a worthy choice for those customers, who are limited in budget. This type of washers offers simple and time-honored technology in combination with advanced features. They are more convenient, because you don`t need to bend over every time you load clothes.
The size of a washer should correspond to the size of the family and space available for the installation. There are three main categories of washers: compact, mid- and full-size.
Whirlpool WTW4800XQ with 3.5 cu. ft. capacity and GE GTWN3000MWS with 3.6 cu. ft. capacity are ideal choice for large families and for those people, who often wash bulky items, like sleeping bags or comforters. The capacity of full-size washers varies from 3.5 to 5.2.

Whirlpool WTW4800XQ and GE GTWN3000MWS with rear control panels provide you with time-proven and convenient technology. The controls are easily accessible and you don`t need to bend over each time to change the settings.
Technical Details
Stainless steel drum in GE GTWN3000MWS makes the appliance more durable and efficient. This washer can withstand higher spin speed and extract more water from clothes, what will reduce the drying time.
Whirlpool WTW4800XQ and GE GTWN3000MWS include leveling legs, so the height of washers can be set without any efforts. Besides it is a useful feature for uneven floor, because poorly adjusted washer operates more loudly.
Whirlpool WTW4800XQ and GE GTWN3000MWS feature Quiet Package system that keeps the operational sounds of the washer inside. Due to the usage of sound-absorbing materials around the wash baskets, these units can be easy installed near the living area and they won`t disturb your general lifestyle.
