Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Hot water when you need it!!

GBarb 8/17/2020

I've had this product for a little over a year now and it has met my expectations. I replaced my 40 gallon gas water heater with a 50 gallon GE Appliances electric model to save money on my gas bill. I have a big family and there are times when more than one person needs hot water. This unit has handled it very well.

Great Performance

Coworker 7/29/2020

Never ran out of hot water after installation of this water heater even when we had two or three visitors in addition to my family of four. Three people were able to take nice hot shower simultaneously and followed by another three .

Great quality for home appliance

bamatunz 7/15/2020

The tank came very sturdy, clean, and quite tall - about 6 feet. I did have to adjust my pipes but it performs perfectly and heats water in just a few minutes.
