A:
There really is no such thing as a "regular cycle" with this machine. There are so many different cycles and options within those cycles you can choose and each impacts the wash time. That said, jeans can go 1hr 15 min. Perma-pressed about 45 minutes.by

A:
it depends on amount of laundry/wt of load- you can adjust the soil level too and this will add or subtract to time- the standard setting is about 50min. I have no problem using the speed wash-bump it up to heavy soil and clothes are done in 20-25 mins.by

A:
that's a tricky questions because there isn't a "regular wash cycle". There's towels, permanent press, jumbo, bulky, wool, whites. And all of those can vary if you add an extra rinse or use turbowash. I would say in general you're looking at about an hour for most wash cycles. Sometimes less and sometimes more. Our typical wash cycle (permanent press with turbowash) is about 45 minutes.You can see my in depth review on YouTube at http://youtu.be/P5Bf4XGweQw

Q:
Washer is brand new - we quickly noticed that whenever the drum is being powered, there is a constant high pitch squeal like an old CRT (tube) TV or computer monitor would make. Noise is constant in pitch/volume whenever the drum is powered regardless of how fast the drum is turning. No noise when the drum is simply coasting to a stop, it's only noisy when powered.Anyone else have this noise?

Answering my own question here...After discussing with LG support I decided this noise may not be "normal" so I actually returned the washer as defective and had a replacement washer (identical model) installed by BestBuy. The service was great.
Unfortunately this replacement unit makes the exact same noise. At this point I'm deciding it is in fact a normal noise, however it is such a high pitch I suspect many people simple cannot hear it. It's not a major problem for us as we can close the door to our laundry room and not hear the noise at all anywhere in the house. So just a minor annoyance.
It would be nice if LG or BestBuy would document this issue, I'm sure it will cut down on needless repair calls and returns.

Hi dadolphson.Thank you for your inquiry.
Some noises are normal for a new Washing machine, but the squealing noise that you're hearing from your new LG - 5.2 Cu. Ft. 14-Cycle Mega Capacity High-Efficiency Steam Front-Loading Washer - Model # WM8000HWA may be that the shipping bolts were not removed. Check to make sure that the shipping bolts have been removed. Regrettably, I am not familiar with what an old CRT TV or computer monitor sound like, but the sound you're describing can be helpful if you have removed the shipping bolts and it persists. Contact the LG Customer Interactive Center for assistance at (800) 243-0000...IFV
