Best Buy is offering folks an affordable upgrade for laundry rooms with the GE Profile 4.8 cubic-foot UltraFast Electric 2-in-1 Washer and Dryer with Ventless Heat Pump for $1,749.99 shipped. Normally going for $2,900, we haven’t seen as many discounts over 2024 as we have for other ENERGY STAR-certified models, particularly from other brands like Samsung and LG. There have been four notable discounts that occurred off GE’s website, with two of them dropping a tad further to the $1,749 low in June and last month. Today, it’s coming in here just $1 higher with a 40% markdown from Best Buy that gives you back $1,150 in savings at the second-lowest price we can find. It even beats out GE’s own website where its listed for a higher $1,999 rate.
This electric 2-in-1 washer/dryer starts with a condensed design that gives you both functions in one space-saving unit, able to complete both washing and drying a large capacity load of laundry in just 2 hours, making transfers a thing of the past. Its ventless heat pump technology, aside from “providing 50% more energy efficient airflow drying,” also allows you to reconfigure your laundry setup to regain space or you can move it to a new location instead, as you’ll no longer be dictated by vent constraints. It also boasts a complete array of smart features to make life that much more easier, updating itself regularly when connected to your home’s Wi-Fi while also providing status alerts and remote controls over its settings through the SmartHQ app.
My partner and I have regularly used this exact model when visiting her parents, and as we are all pet owners (while the entire family is ironically allergic), one of its latest software updates has greatly helped with all the shed hair and dander as the airflow system now separates it from our clothing before the wash cycle and collects it in the EZ Access lint filter. Another standout feature here is the SmartDispense tech that holds enough detergent and fabric softener for up to 32 loads before needing a refill – plus, you can scan the barcode on the detergent bottle in order for the machine’s AI to adjust dispensed amounts based on the detergent brand and the load size.

Head over to our Green Deals hub for more eco-friendly appliance upgrades, like Samsung’s Bespoke A.I. All-in-One Electric Washer & Ventless Dryer that starts from $1,800, with plenty of additional ways to save aside from the massive price cuts. You can also head over to our home goods hub for more standard electric models like the LG WashTower Single Unit Front Load 4.5 cubic-foot Washer and 7.4 cubic-foot Electric Dryer that is still sitting down at its Labor Day rates.
