A:AnswerHi JJ,
Great question! We have found that the total height of the washer and pedestal is approximately 55.75". The washer is 39.75" and the pedestal is 16". I hope this helps. Best wishes -Mike
A:AnswerHi JM - Thanks for considering GE Model GFW850SPNRS! The pedestal is an optional accessory and not required for the washer to work. Optional Pedestal Accessory GFP1528PNRS (Sold Separately) simply raises the washer 16" and provides flexible multi-use storage. Keep in touch at GEAppliances.com. Sue
A:AnswerI don't know what a "planked" load is, but it can wash blankets and big loads. The instructions break it down into what you can put in the tub. I've washed a Queen size blanket with no problem.
