Great water heater
Great water heater. It is much quieter than the one it replaced and seems to be more efficient. Had it month and I am pleased.

So far so good, but only 1/2 day of use of this product so too early to give a full assessment.

Love it for reliable, quality, and "made in USA"
My previous gas water heater was GE one. It had warranty of 9 years but it's been working for 14 years, and still working, no trouble at all. The reason that I have to replace it because my home insurance company gives me a hard time if I want to continue my home coverage. New water heater is still GE. Love it for reliable, quality and "made in USA".

GE realMAX 50 gallon 8 year
Just bought a NEW 2022 "dent/scratch" on the backside GE realMAX 50 gallon 8 year for $350! Replacing my old GE-- GG50T06AVH00 installed 2006 is still running. I will see if I can get a couple more years before installing the new one, but couldn't pass up a new GE for the price. Go GE!! They make a great water tank and I'm the proof with 17 years and counting and zero maintenance on the old one .

Our installer, Jacob did a terrific job. He was very courteous and professional explaining features of the water tank. The GE water tank looks good.

Excellent for the price
Easy Install, quick recovery, well built, more than enough hot water. For the price, it definitely beats other options.

GE 50gal Gas Quality Made Hot Water Tank
I replaced an 20 yr old GE 40gal hot water heater it was still working but I decided to replace it before it went with a 50gal GE. I'm a handy man with skills and replaced it. Simple installation. I went with GE for the quality and that my first one lasted for over 20years. That tells me something about the quality. Hoping my new one will last the same.

Replaced the same model that was 14 years old and still working fine, but didn't want to press my luck. My plumber had it installed, up and running in less than 2 hours.
