Compacts as expected. Can get a weeks worth of garbage in one bag. Only drawback was it doesn't come Cafe Platinum Glass to match all nu other appliances.

Darn thing doesn't compact worth a darn and the foot peddle has a terrible design witch can cause you to start the ram then your foot hits the peddle to open jamming the ram and requiring a service call that takes weeks to schedule to fix it

Do Not Buy this compactor
Teepee man
12/18/2020
Do not buy this product. We purchased this as part a remodel for our home. The unit worked for less than a month and had a material related failure to the compressing mechanism. We waited two months on back ordered parts. It finally was repaired and lasted less than two weeks and the exact same part failed. Now we are being told all we can do is wait another two months for parts to fix it again. Do not waste your money - this compactor has a design flaw and it will never be reliable due to cheap materials used to build it. Worse, GE will not live up to their word to replace it within the warranty period without weeks of delays and hassles.

Nice overall appearance. Easy to use. Compacts trash well. Love the toe
operation to open the compactor and then to operate it. I suggest to other
users to install the compactor as high as you can so that there is plenty
of room for the toe operations.

Looks Great, compresses OK, functions poorly

Unit looks great, but from day one it does not open or close smoothly. Bounces as it opens and closes, what you would expect if something was stuck to the wheels. I checked, nothing stuck to the wheels. Now the unit hardly opens and it appears the door is bending due to the large amount of resistance from opening it. Also, do not feel the 2400 pounds is enough force to properly compress the bag.

Nice looking compactor, parts failure at 9 months

We like the unit. Clean look, reasonably quiet, good compression of the trash. I downgraded the unit to 4 stars because after 9 months of normal use the frame roller assembly bearings failed on the drawer slide. Just ordered new ones on the site and noticed they have been replaced by a newer version, so there maybe a design flaw in the original roller bearings??? Will have to see how the new ones hold up.

NO reverse operation.

Read through the troubleshooting and manual and there is no mention of any way to run this in reverse. When it will eventually get stuck (guest in my house accidentally flipped up the bottom when going to move foot to open the compactor) it proceed to compress and then got stuck on the drawer. There is no function to run in reverse which means it will have to be REMOVED from the built in and hand operated to be raised back into position.

We are very pleased with the new trash compactor. Looks great with the other new stainless steel appliances we purchased. I like that there are no buttons or words on the front of the compactor, just a clean, smooth surface. So easy and convenient to use. Holds and compacts a lot of trash so we don't have to carry out the trash as often. We've only had it for a couple of months, but I highly recommend it.

We just installed this about a month ago(9/21). The controls are a little different than the Whirlpool compactor that we had for 25 years. Unfortunately, the compactor quit cycling 10 days after installation. We hadn't even come close to needing to change the first bag. It is so new, I thought maybe I was doing something wrong, but it is pretty difficult to mess up, I think. Lift the pedal with your toes and it cycles. The motor runs, but the ram won't compact the trash. A repairman was out a couple of weeks ago. He was fixing it, the compactor cycled and bent the bin. I thought we were supposed to have a new bin shipped to us last Friday, but I haven't seen the bin nor have I heard from the repairman or GE. A little disappointing! I'm giving it 3 stars because I'm assuming it will get fixed or replaced and will then provide years of trouble free service. If not, I will be editing my review.

I like the toe control to operate it. I have been told that it's not the same construction as my older one so I reserve judgement on quality until later. This one is considerably lighter than my old one

The compactor is everything I hoped it would be, it can hardly be heard when it is running, I love that it has no handle to get in the way and the hands-free toe pedal control to open and to start it. It does a great job of smashing the garbage .

I bought this compactor to replace one that came with my home built 21 years ago. I have a trusted appliance dealer just about to go out of business and he could only get this one. I figured they all looked the same so why not. From the day I put it into the encloser I could feel the difference between it and the 21 year old appliance it was replacing. The slider was not as smooth and wasn't as quiet. I ran into some issues closing it early on and today the door was completely stuck after only 3 months of use.

This compactor looks great in pictures but feels cheap and performs about the same...the flimsy construction and rough feeling tracks for the compartment make this product less than desirable...we are actually trying to return this model to the store and get a better quality product.

Just got it and so far so good. Only thing is when one pressed to open, the drawer doesn't open sufficiently. Since there's no handle on this model, one must touch to pull open the drawer. Maybe with more use or a little WD40 it will pop open more widely.

The compactor works beautifully. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a handle, so that if I forget and touch the top of the stainless steel, I leave a mark, which I then have to clean off.

I haven't had the product for a week yet but I love the sleek lines, the hidden power button and the fact that I was able to install it by myself. The Lowe's delivery guys were outstanding and opened the wrapping on their truck and then delivered the trash compactor within inches of its final destination. They were punctual, courteous, cautious and wore their masks. Thank you Lowe's. I will be buying the rest of my much needed GE appliances from you!

This is not a very good quality appliance. The drawer does not glide well. It really needs a good shove to insure its closed. There is no "extra pack" feature and even the regular pack is not as effective as previous compactors I have owned. I tried to save a few hundred dollars and wish I hadn't.
