Great Dryer
on February 18, 2015
Posted by: benborgs
Verified Purchase:Yes
Does a very good job of drying clothes; lots of drying options and an easy to clean button console are an added bonus. The dryer's sensor seems to be pretty accurate and aside from comforters everything seems to come out dry the first run. Overall very happy with this purchase.
One annoyance: the chime that plays at the end of the cycle is WAY too long and gets annoying fast. You can disable it but it would be great if there was another chime to choose from.

Do more laundry in less time. This spacious Samsung washer takes fewer loads to get all your laundry done. Plus, you can use it anytime, because everyone will sleep right through the reduced noise and vibration levels.

Great Washing Machine

Overall good with some annoyances
on February 18, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
The original movie was pretty good but felt a little long; added content in the extended addition didn't really add to the overall enjoyment of the film.
So this is annoying: Digital copy is Ultraviolet only which is essentially worthless to me. Ultraviolet's apps are buggy at best; they used to give you a iTunes key if you asked but now their support pretends that was never the case.

Not much to say; this movie is really fantastic. Like what you'd expect from a Marvel movie there's a lot of action but a lot of fun.

Effective but lots of cleaning
on February 18, 2015
Posted by: benborgs
Verified Purchase:Yes
We purchased this to help increase the humidity in our bedroom and to that end it has been very effective. As we have a rather dry house we have to keep it on the highest setting for it to be effective which reduces the time the unit will run (down to about 12hrs); considering we only need it at night it's all we need.
Cons: mineral build up can be significant even following the instructions of cleaning every week; after only two weeks of use all the cleaning in the world couldn't remove all the mineral build up on the heating element.
Overall this product does it's job just fine but I don't expect it to last particularly long.

Quiet and Effective
on February 18, 2015
Posted by: benborgs
Verified Purchase:Yes
There are two primary functions I look for in a dishwasher: that it is effective at cleaning and that I'm not bothered by it when it's running. This LG tackles both of these functions very well.
Cleaning: Arguably the most important feature in any dishwasher; if it can't clean the dishes well then it's wasting time and resources. The LG dishwasher rarely leaves a dirty dish and the few times it does I can generally tack it up to the fact that my wife likes to use the eco-friendly detergent which has always been less effective. Overall I'm very satisfied with how effectively this dishwasher cleans. As an added bonus, both of the dish racks are pretty customizable making it easy to have lots of dishes that fit well together, or a good number of larger, awkward dishes. Aside from being clean the dishes are always dry whenever water doesn't pool on them (like every dishwasher)/
Noise: Wait.. what noise? This LG washer is easily the most quite washer I've had; once I leave the kitchen I don't even know it's running and even in the kitchen I easily forget. I noticed while installing that the washer tub (directly on the other side of the door) has a thick flexible rubber ring around it to help fill in the space between the surrounding cabinet and the washer itself.
Clean Time: an issue that a few reviewers have brought up. The standard Normal run is about 2.5hrs since the drying time takes longer as there is no heating element. Add extra dry time and it goes to over 3 hours; alternatively an extra rinse cycle (which effectively helps the dishes have fewer streaks) brings the total clean time to around 2hrs 50min. It's not a speed demon but I'm not exactly sitting around waiting for ti to finish so the speed doesn't bother me.
Install: Install is about as easy as any other dishwasher; if you're comfortable working in small tight spaces and you have the right tools the install is easy; otherwise I suggest getting a professional to install.
Other Thoughts: Other reviewers have mentioned that they did not like the fact that there was no "done" light on the to tell you when the cycle is complete. There is, however, a rather unintrusive little song that plays to let you know which has been perfectly effective for us.

is installation of dishwasher included in price?
is installation included
Unless Best Buy specifically notes it, no. Delivery and removal of the old dishwasher is generally included but you have to uninstall the old dishwasher yourself for them to take it.

It appears in the picture, that there are no tines on the top rack. Is this correct?
I wash a lot of baby bottles, which require tines on the top rack of the dishwasher. Are there no tines on the top rack?
The Tines are actually adjustable (to and bottom). Bottom racks can lay the tines flat if desired; top rack can do the same or angle them. Overall very handy.

is the front of the unit actual stainless or stainless look. I want to know if fingerprints and watermarks will show?
is the dishwasher actual stainless steel or stainless look. in other words, does it leave fingerprints and watermarks all over it?
Stainless; but not a fingerprint magnet like most stainless appliances I've used.
