When I was a load with two large beach towels the spin cycle does not work properly. The towels are as wet as if the spin cycle never occured. The cycle will not go up to full speed when two large towels are in the washer. What is the solution.
The washer will not proceed into high speed spin with just two large beach towels in the basket. The washer is detecting a out of balance condition, and remains in low speed spin. Solution? Try adding more items into the basket. With only two towels, there is not enough mass to balance the washer. With more clothing or towels, there is more items for the machine to balance, and reach full speed spin.
The only other thing that could cause this, would be if the water in the tub is not completely draining in the time allowed. This washe does not have a cleanout, and checking for an obtruction in the pump is difficult. I would go with the more clothes first, then see.

Thanks for your comment. I am aware that if I added more items it would spin. There are times though that I only need to do a small load. It is frustrating that in a washer this expensive that a small load option is not available and there is no other solution other than add more clothes!
I have a similar problem, but I've found no matter how many towels I have in the wsher, 2 or 8, it usually doesn't spin out unless I turn it off, set it on the "rinse and spin" cycle or just start over with a full cycle. I heard that I should remove the bottom plan, and unscrew the drain. what a pain that is. We finally just leave the bottom off of the washer becuase we always have to check it when it won't drain. Today we removed the drain and the very next load wouldn't spin out without turning it off and setting it to the "rinse and spin" cycle. I regret buying GE and my husband reminds me every time I have a problem that we shouldn't have bought it when our other top loading machine worked just fine. I would not recommend this washer to anyone!!
