Terrific washer so far.
on April 20, 2015
Posted by: Sechal
from Massachusetts, USA
This unit has worked flawlessly. I do note that some users have received units that always seem to go out of balance- not ours. I fully read the manual and looked at people's tips on use. No errors, none, nada. We've tried several different settings. We're not overly aggressive with spin speed, choosing the lowest when possible. We are also conscientious about how we load the washer, as suggested, from outside in.
You're always going to find people who don't like a product, none work perfectly. But for the majority of buyers of this model, the numbers speak for themselves. Couldn't be happier with it. Clothes come out clean and fresh, even my 12-year old's hockey clothes....now that's saying something!
Do not hesitate to buy this washer, it works beautifully.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great top loading washer
on May 23, 2015
Posted by: natnat
from Georgia, USA
I reviewed washers for hours and went with this one after reading the reviews all over the web and after reading that it was recommended by Consumer Reports.
It holds MORE that the awful expensive front loading machine I replaced that kept leaking. (I will NEVER have a front loading machine again.) This washer has a FLAT bottom (no agitator). It is fully electronic. (really didn't want that, but it has turned out to be very nice.)
I do want to WARN buyers that is a VERY tall washer. Originally when it was delivered, I was upset that I could not open the lid because of the cabinets above washer. However, it has a feature on the door that makes part of the lid "collapse". Sounds weird, but it is very cool and works great. You may want to measure your space and then add another foot or so for lid opening etc. (Read about the lid locking feature....)
I love my washer. The people that complain about the low level water, must have only had the water guzzingly older models of decades ago...... I found it funny when I read the complaints. My clothes are clean.... I am a women and am very particular. Buy the washer. I have had mine for 2 months but a colleague at work has had hers for 2 years and loves it still. (It plays a cute little tune when the load it done!)
The washer is idiot proof.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality, pretty

Doing Laundry and enjoying it
on May 26, 2015
Posted by: ncclassyman
from Wendell, NC, USA
It took a little getting used but now I actually halfway enjoy doing the laundry whereas I always used to put it off and hate doing it. Like this washer and it runs so quiet and has many great features that I am still learning to use. My clothes come out with less wrinkles from the spin cycle and most things come out of the dryer ready to hang up or fold. I'm very pleased with this washer.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality

Constant UE Error Frustrating
on May 31, 2015
Posted by: ReyBey
from Northern Virginia
This product worked fine for about a year. Then the UE or unbalanced load error made washing a hassle. Each load now has this problem, often multiple times. It means you must redistribute the load by hand and then hope it will finish washing and spin to the end. But, most times that is not the case and the load must be adjusted again, and again by hand. Others have reported this problem. As others have noted, we also chose this washing machine based in large part on a Consumer Reports recommendation that it turns out in our case was just wrong. We also liked the LG brand for its product reliability but that is also now in question with this experience.
Pros: avoid
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great machine for small space.
on July 16, 2015
Posted by: Traveling Grandma
from Pennsylvania, USA
I bought this machine when I downsized my lifestyle. My former home allowed me to have a 5.3 cu. ft. washer in my laundry room but my space was limited in my current home. After much research, I found your 4.1 cu. ft. top load that had almost all the features of my other machine. It does a great job of cleaning in cold water, the number of cycles is surprising for a narrower machine, as is the level of dirt in the clothes and the spin speed. This is my first LG washer and it will not be my last. I am thrilled with the choice I made.
Pros: Performance, Features/Settings, Quality

Love it, but.. it is tall
on August 11, 2015
Posted by: treescot
from Phoenix, AZ, USA
I am 5'4" and actually could use a stool to empty the washer to the dryer. I have to tippy toe to pull the clothes out of the bottom of the washer. It is TALL with the controls in the front of the machine. But I happily reach cause this machine is way better than our old Cabrio. Grr Whirlpool!
Pros: Performance

Large capacity easy to use
on August 23, 2015
Posted by: Bryan
from Boston, MA, USA
We purchased this washer to replace our 20 year old one. Obviously technology has changed and the new washer looked a little bit more complicated to use. This is not the case though, the controls are super easy to use and the large capacity is great for comforters. No more going to the laundromat! There are some reviews regarding a balancing issue, have not had one problem in the 8-weeks we have used it. Great washer and an affordable price.
Pros: easy to use, Performance

Nice machine
on September 5, 2015
Posted by: Mary S
from Colorado Springs, CO, United States
Waited a couple of months to do the review, just in case the "new" might wear off. Works great and is extremely quiet when compared to a standard Kemore. I like the leveling feature and especially the folding lid since it need to fit under cabinets. Clothes end up nice and clean and can't find anything to compain about.
Pros: Style/Design
I would recommend this to a friend!
