Excellent washing machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very happy with top loader. Several friends have had front loaders that burn out. This was recommended by sales person. He said front loaders hang on a bearing and they burn out. This machine cleans as well or better than any machine I had in the past
Pros: Quality, easy to use
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Don't waste your money!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Worst wash machine I've ever purchased! I have owed this washer for 4 years and spent countless hours rearranging unbalanced loads, wringing clothes out by hand, or re washing them because the clothes were still dirty after washing them. The clothes aren't even submerged in water..How can your clothes come out clean !!? Now my clothes won't even rinse!! I haven't been able to wash clothes for two weeks!! I've tried everything and called LG they just brush me off and say that it's not under warranty anymore! I will NEVER buy anything from them again!!! Do not buy this washing machine!! Nothing but a piece of JUNK!!! No wonder it's discontinued!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Do not buy

This washer constantly gives me a code of UE in EVERY wash no matter how large or small the load is. It has caused my water bill to sky rocket because it goes through at least 3 wash cycles before it is complete.
Pros: Style/Design
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It’s well known that this unit will fail and the front main board is the issue. The drain pump will eventually start running continuously and not shut off unless you unplug the machine. The only fix is to replace the whole board. This issue is all over the internet and well know. This unit will fail within 7 years.

Wouldn't buy again

I don't like that a load takes so long, usually an hour or more and all it seems to do is twist and turn with numerous pauses. I also want an option to add more water. We've always been told not to overload a washer because the clothes need room to move around freely. This washer barely covers the clothes and they mostly just rub together. I now just wash everything in the "bulky" mode so I can have more water. It is definitely not energy efficient when I have to use a high water cycle and run an hour of electricity.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Piece of Junk
on September 13, 2015

from Fort Worth, TX, United States
I can not get my clothes clean. If I add more detergent, does not rinse out. So I add more water, load becomes unbalanced (no signal that the load is unbalanced). So I back up and add two rinse cycles, takes 1:47 to wash a load. It is a good thing all my kids are grown or I would never get my laundry done.
Pros: easy to use
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bad engineering operation design.

LG please send my regards to the people involved on designing this machine. High efficiency!!!! That is more like very poor efficiency. First of all worst buy I’ve ever done Waste of my hard earned money waste of my time having to babysit the dang machine waste of water when it goes off balance this is a very non reliable machine that all it does is agitate for a bit then spin clockwise then counterclockwise is just very frustrating and disappointing. I know this is a discontinued Model but, I hope you’ve learn from all the bad reviews and have done something about it. One thing for sure is that this is the first time I bought an LG product and the last I’m so mad that I’m not interested in giving you another try.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Large capacity/new design
on January 19, 2013

I've been using this machine for about a month now. I read some reviews before I bought this machine concerning top loaders and was hesitant because so many said they don't clean as well. I haven't noticed that but in fairness we don't have really soiled clothing. I do have a dog that sheds alot and when I clean the dryer vent there is a lot more dog hair so that makes me wonder. Overall I love the efficiency of the machine, the sleek design and as others have mentioned when the spin cycle is on high you can cut your dryer time. To those short people like me...I'm 5'2" and have to get on my tiptoes to get the wet clothes out of the bottom of the machine but because the tubs so big - I do less loads :)
