I like the features
on January 24, 2015
Posted by: old lady
from Austin, Tx.
However, at 5'2" I may be shorter than average user but I have to have step stool next to machine to enable me to reach in to retrieve the laundry. Also living alone my loads are small and balancing does not seem to be a problem.
Pros: Features/Settings
I would recommend this to a friend!

Always Uneven Load--Huge Waste of Water
on January 24, 2015
Posted by: zeusytravel
from Green Bay, WI, USA
Since purchasing this washer in May 2014, it constantly goes into UE (uneven) load. We have purchased a premium service plan and have had the service tech rebalance the washer. It continues to fill the huge drum to the very top with water. We want to return it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Dryer works great
on January 22, 2015
Posted by: GPW123
from Amarillo, TX, USA
My Dryer is easy to operate. The select buttons are pretty much self explanatory. I also like the design & silver drum. The notification ALARM is great also. The lint trapper is tooooooooooooooo large. I hope that it is alright to use dryer sheets. I'm afraid to put the dryer bar in it since the manual does not touch on these type of products for it.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality

Constantly out of balance
on January 22, 2015
Posted by: Washerwoman448
from Washington DC
Do not be fooled by the sizable drum or the direct drive anti-vibration technology -- you can't fill the drum more than a third of the way full without it going out of balance. I do an average of 7 loads per week and generally 5 of them are out of balance, requiring me to constantly monitor the load and redistribute wet clothing. This is the worst washer I've ever had in 30 years in terms of balance. Other than that, it performs well, but unless you enjoy standing in your laundry room and playing with wet clothes all day, avoid.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Washer, Great Features, Great Performance
on January 20, 2015

I really love my washer and all of the features that it offers. I have found that you can go beyond the Normal "one-size-fits-all" cycle and use the other cycles to get specific results for special types of wash loads. With the bulky bedding cycle, the washer compensates for the size of the load and actually senses that it needs to add more water to the load. I have soaked towels in a water & bleach solution prior to adding them to the washer. The sensors on the washer literally "feel the weight" of the load and compensate for it. I am always fascinated by the washer's ability to check and recheck the washload to make sure it is centered properly, that enough water is in the washtub, and that it can successfully clean the washload within the cycle you've selected. It is really uncanny - the washing machine is amazing, fun to watch as it does its check and recheck, and at the end of it all, it has a nice, sweet response for you when it is finished. Not the annoying alarm that older washers have like a five-alarm fire horn, but a little melody to let you know that it is finished with your request. I'm still learning about the features, but I will tell you this, you cannot go wrong with LG appliances. They are the best and Consumer Reports Highly Recommends LG Appliances for that very reason. It is the Rolls Royce of washing machines!!!
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality, intuitive, smart options, fascinating to watch

A great washing machine`
on January 19, 2015
Posted by: millstap
from New Orleans, LA, USA
Our fairly new washing machine was smelling funny and our towels never smelled very good. So, I decided to go with this matched set. I really liked the idea of the front push button controls. This was our second LG product. We had just bought an LG French Door refrigerator. This new was has a huge capacity and I really like the stainless steel tube. It is very easy to use and you can program your own custom cycles into it if you like. I think my wife would like that but we have not done it yet. We have just used the standard cycles. I just did my first monthly tub cleaning cycle that LG recommends for maintenance. You just push the "Tub Clean" button, drop in a cleaning tablet and you are done. I will continue to do this to be sure the tub always smells fresh. The machine is quieter than our old standard unit with the center agitator. Cloths seem to come out very clean and fresh. I think this washer's cycles take longer, but the clothes come out so dry after the high speed spin cycle, that it usually only takes 20-30 minutes for them to dry in the dryer. This washer seems very well built so I don't expect any issues with it for years to come. I had read some people with vibrating tube problems during spinning. It is self balancing and it works great. You have to be sure that the washer is lever as per the installation instructions for it to work correctly so I would definitely recommend having it installed by a pro and make sure they know how to level it. I would double check it to be sure. I had to move one leg just a bit because I am a perfectionist when it comes to following instructions. You can wash two comforters at once. We did that with no problems.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality
