GE Profile Washer Model #WPRE6150K2WT review: NOT WORKING 2

I bought this washer one year and three months ago, and from one day to the next, it will no longer spin. I called GE Cares, they scheduled an authorized technician to come out and take a look, which cost me $70, just to have him tell me that I need a new motor at a cost of $420! Might as well advertise these washers as "disposable units" since I will probably end up buying another washer, different brand of course!
Steer clear of this product.
