This dryer cord is required for successful hook-up of your new appliance. Our delivery personnel will determine whether a 3- or 4-prong cord is needed based on the outlet behind your existing dryer.

When you've got the power of steam, you've got the power to clean~from serious grime to your most delicate fabrics. The Allergiene cycle uses gentle yet deeply penetrating steam to remove over 95% of pet dander allergens. Simplify your laundry to-do list and access key LG washer features remotely using ThinQ technology. And, master multi-taskers take note: This LG washer is TWIN Wash System compatible, which means you can add the ingenious LG SideKick pedestal washer to tackle two loads of laundry~both large and small~all at the same time.

2 month use review.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Installation went smoothly with the exception of me needing to move the catch pan location 9" to the right and relocate the drain hole so the washer door would open fully. You will be required to buy a new set of braided water hoses ($29.99) if Best Buy does the installation.
As already known, it takes much longer to wash a load of clothes vs a top load. The clothes are as clean as the top load was. Nothing better or worse.
The LG design wizards missed the boat on the location of the washer filter/drain tube (door) location. Per building code, washers are to be placed inside a catch pan with drain. The lip on the catch pan blocks the filter door from opening. Should have left off 2/3 of the useless settings and spent another couple bucks on moving this door up 5".
I intend on removing the door entirely so I can remove/clean the filter per the manual. We will never use the majority of the vast array of settings or the wi-fi. When it stops washing, its done. I don't need washer info sent to my phone.... some millennial in need of constant attention thought that was a good idea?
It's an over priced washer that appears to use less water and gets our clothes clean in about twice the time as our previous top load. *Make sure you have provisions to leave the washer door partially open all the time in between uses or mold will form.

Efficiency can mean a lot nowadays, and this dryer knows it. Its ultra large capacity will handle extra-large loads, so you finish your laundry faster. The Intelligent Electronic Controls with Dual LED Display make it easier to get the settings right, so you can just ~set it and go.~ The Sensor Dry System will detect the level of moisture in the fabric and automatically adjust drying-time and temperature. And, stay ahead of the cycle and access key LG dryer features remotely with ThinQ technology. If you appreciate efficiency, so does this dryer.

LG - 7.4 Cu. Ft. 12-Cycle Smart Wi-Fi Electric SteamDryer - Sensor Dry and TurboSteam - Graphite Steel Model:DLEX3700V
SKU:6181263
Installation went smoothly. You will be required to buy a dryer cord ($29.99) at purchase as it doesn't come with one and a rigid dryer vent ($29.99) which we didn't need as we used flex so that was returned/refunded via the installation guys. We didn't see a practical use for the steam feature on the dryer and didn't purchase the steam hook up kit. *Note: If you elect to install the steam kit, by building code you will need to install a catch pan and drain under the dryer (same as the washer as it will have water). The kit requires that a Y be placed on your washer cold water fawcett and braided water hose run to the dryer. Best to have the catch pan install completed prior to the arrival of the new dryer.
Dry sensor setting vs set by minutes is worthless. It can't tell when the clothes are dry. Waay to many settings available. Most folks will only use 2.
Dryer operation is very quite. Did not/will not utilize the wifi notification feature. The clothes are done when the dryer shuts off. I don't need that sent to my phone?? Some millennial in need of constant attention was involved with that feature??
It's a very over priced dryer with allot of useless features and has dried our clothes effectively for 2 months.

These stainless-steel washing machine fill hoses are ideal for connecting most washing machines to hot and cold water.

I got this HDMI cable when I purchased a new 4k tv. Not a requirement as any serviceable HDMI cable will work. More silver in the cable drives the price up but doesn't add any real viewing benifit. Get a standard cable for allot less and save your $.

The previous model was better.
By Roth
I miss the old model. Useful setting like custom program and turbo wash are gone. The capacity is smaller. and the companion dryer is the worst I have owned.

Huh?

Does this machine wash well? Not a place for dryer review and you don't say what's wrong with it.
Do a decent review or don't use up space here.

The WiFi can also be used to update the washers firmware and remotely diagnose issues.
*No indication from LG that the WIFI can be used for this.
Where does that catch pan drain to?
*2nd level location. Drains into basement sump. Would prevent floor damage with a small machine leak. Wouldn't do much for a hose break.
I've heard of drain pans required for water heaters but not washing machines.
*Required by most building codes if machine is located in a living area level.
Couldn't you raise the washing machine so the door clears the pan?
*That would induce instability and increase the chance for vibration/movement. And it would be a bandaid for poor LG design knowing it needs to go in a pan.
