Rated 5 out of 5 by from 17 Smart years! Installed this morning and just had a long and hot shower! Easy install. Purchased two new supply lines and a drip pan before it got here. We already had a 30 amp breaker and #10 wire. Looking forward to a long and clean relationship. 🙂 Our last Smart GE hot water heater was with us 17 years before we retired it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Well built well insulated unit I had a 20+-year-old GE SmartWater heater that was getting a little rusty so I proactively replaced it before it could leak. I had such good luck with the last one that I wanted another GE. It installed quickly and easily. Not a single leak anywhere. I love the brass drain and overflow. I love that this one is better insulated than my last GE. I won't use the WiFi features since they are not useful enough. If I could setup schedules or track the kWh usage it would be interesting but just setting vacation mode on/off and changing the temp setpoint is not useful enough to bother with it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the Smart Feature I enjoy the ease of setting the temperature for times when we are not home or over night.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great value and user friendly app! Very modern and sleek design, app is very user friendly and great for when going on vacation to set it for a less efficient usage and lower your bill.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Smart water heater? I thought I was going to set a run/on daily schedule , Nope I can set a vacation schedule, Set temp & that's about it.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not a very smart water heater The purpose of this heater was to use the wifi capability to control scheduling weekly so we can turn it off evenings and weekends. The smart capabilities on this unit have very limited functions. It can be turned on and off, set temperature and put on vacation mode, but it cannot be set on a schedule. Also, the set up to connect the wifi is very complicated.
