Save Your $$$
on August 25, 2015

This is a terrible washer. It was bought to replace an older one but now I wished we would have gotten the older one repaired. This washer uses too little water and clothes do not come out clean so they have to be washed again negating any savings of water.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Pricy junk

I have had this for some time now. It is not a good machine for cleaning. Water savings, maybe. But, I don't like clothes not coming clean.

terrible product

About half of the loads trigger the unbalanced error, and then have to baby sit it and re-arrange the load a handful of times before it will finish. 2+ hours a load. We cannot identify a reason for this; we have read the manual and all the online advice. Owned it for a year. Stinks too; we have to use SmellyWasher regularly.

Perfect example of scrap
on January 29, 2017
Posted by: Emjamca
from Indiana, United States
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this washer and accompanying dryer for 3 years. The dryer is wonderful and I have no complaints. The washer is incapable of washing without becoming "uneven". We have tried as suggested by placing clothing by weight around the drum like a donut, small/large loads, making sure the washer is level and nothing works. I despise this washer so much that I am considering taking it somewhere to have it crushed because I could not in good conscience sell it or give it to another person. I feel taken advantage of for spending the amount of money that I did on this piece of garbage.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Junk!
on February 1, 2017
Posted by: Miss Jo
from Tulsa, OK, United States
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this machine less than 3 years ago. If you had asked me a month ago how I felt about it, I would have given it 5 stars. But then the dreaded UE code started to appear multiple times in every wash load. It even appeared when the tub was empty in a Tub Clean cycle! How can the load be UnEven when there is no load? I have googled this problem and found out it is quite common and difficult/expensive to fix. It takes HOURS to complete one load. Sometimes I just give up and hand wring the wet clothes (the UE always appears during the rinse/spin cycle) and put them in the dryer. I have also shut off the power and restarted the machine in the Spin Only cycle. Don't know how much longer I can handle this before buying a new one. Not happy with LG.
Pros: Style/Design, easy to use
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

UE codes galore
on April 8, 2017
Posted by: chronometers

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 80% of wash cycles result in UE code. The washer is 2 years old. Enough said! Poor design and poor investment.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Uneven load every time
on February 16, 2018
Posted by: Melforce1
from New jersey
I bought this washing machine three years ago. There has not been one day that I use this that the load doesn’t go on even. It’s supposed to be economical with water. I don’t see how it could be if for every uneven load the entire machine will fill with water to rebalance. It goes through this cycle three times. And then when you go to get your wash out of the machine it’s not done. It will take me days to do one load of Laundry. I will not be keeping this machine much longer will though functionality wise it should work. I will be investing in a different machine in the very near future just so that I don’t have to spend a week washing the same load
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Goes “uneven” ALL THE TIME.
on February 10, 2019
Posted by: vs3729
from Colorado Springs, CO
I’ve had this washer for years, got it new. About 75% of the time it goes “uneven”. Too many clothes, not enough, wrong mix of clothing weights combined together, it rarely matters. Uses more water as it TRIES to sort itself out, never helps. Just takes longer and uses more water.
Never getting a model with these “features” ever again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
