Awesome product
on February 8, 2015
Posted by: Keporter17
from Palmyra, MI
This was a replacement for a older "other" brand washer we had. The turbo wash is awesome. Love the different load sizes available. Quiet running. For those who complained about the noise on washer filling up. Buy a water hammer kit at local home improvement store. They screw right onto the water fill area and work great. This washer is a huge improvement from what we had. Would recommend this to anybody looking.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works perfectly, including the load balancing
on June 15, 2017

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This washer was delivered about six weeks ago, and it works wonderfully. A typical load takes only about 37 minutes. Unfortunately, six weeks ago, the appliance dealers' installers also forgot to put in the screws attaching the washer to the pedestal washer I also bought, letting me test this full size washer's advertised load balancing feature, which worked perfectly. Whenever the washer started shaking while spinning, the load balancing constantly turned off the spin and gently rotated the clothes until the washer could spin without significant shaking. Two days ago the dealers' installers finally returned, installed the missing screws, and the washer now spins smoothly on high. I'm very glad I bought this washer.
Pros: Style/Design, Features/Settings, Performance, Quality, easy to use

Disappointed
on October 7, 2015

We bought this washer about three months ago and have used it many times. It appears to be well made and is attractive. However, two aspects of it cause us to believe we made a mistake and should've bought a top loader. First, the water level never gets above an inch into the drum and large loads aren't close to being immersed. We rinse three times, as you can smell residual detergent if you don't, and we've cut our powdered detergent volume down by half, to a minimal amount. Second, you cannot wash highly absorbent cotton items, such as a small bath rug, with or without additional items such as a couple of bath towels, because the machine will not spin due to the weight of the load. We've not had this issue with these items with top loaders covering a period of 40 years.
Pros: Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality

Flooded my laundry room after 45 days of use
on May 29, 2015
Posted by: dgibson1
from Salisbury, NC, USA
This washer was purchased, delivered and installed by a big box store along with the matching LG dryer. After exactly 45 days it has started pumping water out of the bottom instead of the drain hose. It appears the drain plumbing (hoses, pump, etc.) inside the washer has failed. My last washer, not an LG unit, was still working fine after 14 years; it had just gotten a little worn and ugly. In fact, the household that inherited that washer is using it today and I'm waiting days for a repair person to arrive just to look at my brand new washer. My point is how can I trust this product at this point? Even when it’s repaired I’m going to be afraid to close my laundry room door while it’s in operation. This washer has a number of features that are nice, but pretty standard in this size and price range. The premature failure makes me think it’s not a great value in the long run. This will be my last LG purchase.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We have had this washer for 2 years. For the past year we have noticed it smells musty- we have cleaned out the filter several times. Today I pulled the rubber door seal forward and found lots of gunk and mold. I have wiped it in the past and we keep the door on the washer open to prevent this. Super hard to clean, I’m not sure what I am going to do now!!!

Leaks from orange turbo wash spout
on November 17, 2015
Posted by: TurboWash
from California, United States
This LG washer WM4270HWA leaks from the orange turbo wash spout for about 6 hours after the wash finishes! I exchanged it for the same model after a Geek Squad exam noted leaky valve and recommended exchange. The 2nd LG had the same leak! It's impossible to keep the rubber dry because of the leak. It even leaked through to the floor. I have now scheduled a return and ordered a different brand. We have an older, discontinued LG in another location and love it. I am very disappointed with this LG model. Compared to the older model, the clothes also seemed very wet after the last spin of this model. I'm writing this review to inform potential customers of the problem with model and to ask LG to take a look at this problem with the WM4270HWA. I wanted to keep it, but could not put up with the leaking.
Pros: Style/Design
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Pure Quality

We wanted a washer that could handle comforters, pillows, bedding and get the job done right. We are very much pleased from the smallest load to the largest load. Several years ago we purchased a competitors front load washer & we were so disappointed. We can say nothing negative about this front load washer. The washer gets the clothes clean, no soap residues. Just Clean, Clean, Clean. The washer is very quiet & highly efficient. Easy to learn about, with every function a person could want. I think we only have a great product that will bring us years of quality Service

DOESN'T SPIN!!!
on January 25, 2016
Posted by: GHT1
from Fort Walton Beach, FL, United States
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was super excited about my washer and dryer... It has all the features plus style... Very big size and a pretty high price...
Currently, washing 6 pairs of jeans and 1 hoodie... It have been well over 3 hours and the washer doesn't spin!!! It keeps giving me error codes...
This is pretty big washer! So i refuse to believe that the load is too heavy for it!!!
Its only 6 pairs of jeans and a hoodie! What is going to happen to when i wash my towels and sheets???
