GE Profile Ultrafast Key Features and Technology
Shop GE Profile 4.8 Cu. Ft. Washer Dryer Combo
Offering much more than a simple two-in-one laundry option, the GE Profile Ultrafast Combo is packed with features seen in many of the most advanced separate units. With 12 optional cycles to choose from, this model also includes:
- A fast airflow drying system: Using high-speed recirculated air to dry laundry at a low temperature, this advanced system does not require a dryer vent. The flexibility this allows is cutting edge, but the lower drying temperatures also help to extend the lifespan of your clothes.
- Energy savings: Drying with recirculated air and requiring less heat energy, the innovative GE all-in-one washer dryer combo saves significant energy and lowers your laundry bills.
- Microban antimicrobial technology: A valuable feature for keeping your home and family healthy, GE’s Microban™ technology helps to prevent mold, mildew, and odors.
- Wi-Fi connectivity: A smart appliance connected to the GE SmartHQ app, controlling your laundry and selecting your settings is simple with remote access to this machine.
- Adaptive SmartDispense™ Technology: Removing almost every time consuming step from doing a load of laundry, SmartDispense™ intuitively dispenses the right amount of detergent for every cycle.
- Steam cycle option: Keeping laundry wrinkle free, the built-in steam cycle loosens fabric, sparing you from ironing chores.
- Vibration control: When you don’t want to wake your family or annoy your neighbors on laundry day, the vibration control in this model helps to keep your machine steady and reduce disruption as it cleans and dries.
- EZ Access lint filter: Front access and easy to remove, the lint filter in the GE Ultrafast Combo makes machine maintenance a piece of cake.

Pros and Cons
Every home is unique and has a different laundry schedule and cleaning needs. This is why having a wide range of appliances available helps every customer to find the right machine for their household.
The GE Profile Ultrafast Combo is a model that challenges norms and rethinks laundry. We take a look at some of the pros and cons of this new and innovative machine.
✅ The Pros
- No need for venting: In many homes, the most ideal spot for doing laundry is not close enough to a dryer vent to make it possible. With the PFQ97HSPVDS, no venting is required, so you can put this one and done washer in the spot that works best for you.
- GE Profile’s brand heritage: GE has a century of experience making reliable appliances for homes worldwide. Choosing a heritage brand instills confidence for buyers who take comfort in seeing a long record of sales and service.
- Space saving: Using less space than stacking machines or laundry centers, the GE Profile Ultrafast Combo can even fit under counters or inside closet space.
- No more switching laundry: Eliminating the problem that makes laundry day so dreaded. When we forget to switch laundry over after a wash, we lose time while waiting, money on repeat cycles, and get surprises waking up to wet clothes. This two in one option does it all from start to finish.
- Convenient Smart HQ app: Get laundry updates, control your cycle from anywhere, and use remote troubleshooting to solve issues via the convenient smartphone app.
- Large capacity: With space to wash and dry a king size comforter, this GE 2 in 1 washer dryer is bigger than most combo machines.
This style of laundry machine isn’t the best choice for every home. It also has some downsides when compared with other two-in-one options.
❎ The Cons
- Investment: The convenience and space saving of the ventless GE Profile Ultrafast Combo comes at a higher price point than alternative options. By shopping with an experienced discount appliance store such as Slager Appliances, customers find that high-end appliances like the Ultrafast Combo are surprisingly within their budget.
- Range of options: This GE 2 in 1 washer dryer offers a long list of available wash and dry cycles. It can offer almost too much for people who prefer manual controls or simple, user friendly selections.
- Longer cycles: Saving energy by using lower heat for drying, the full cycle time to wash and dry a load of laundry is longer with this combo model.
- One load at a time: As many people complete several loads on laundry day, starting a second wash while the first load is drying, this model may slow the system down. Only washing and drying one load at a time, each cycle needs to finish up before you can start on the next.

Installation
Compared with vented dryer models, installation of this model is fairly simple.
With a 66” power cord length and a 60” drain hose length, it offers flexibility for installation. Although the GE Profile Ultrafast Combo can be installed in a closet, it is vital to allow ventilation around the machine with either an open alcove or a louver door to allow airflow.
Despite the simpler instructions detailed in the manual, many customers prefer to opt for professional delivery and installation. This option saves you additional work including lifting, installing, and removing packing material.
Maintenance
Maintaining any washer or dryer correctly is vital to keep your machine in tip top condition, stay energy efficient, and prolong its lifespan.
- Lint trap cleaning: Featuring an easy access lint trap at the front of the machine, cleaning your lint filter as recommended helps to keep your cycles efficient and safe.
- Check and clear the pump filter: As a front load washing machine, very small items can sometimes escape into the machine and are blocked by a pump filter. Intermittently checking this filter can prevent issues and sustain peak water flow.
