Needs a redesign. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had high hopes for this washer, unfortunately it did not live up to my expectations. It seems to be too smart for it’s own good, it senses first, then spins the dry clothes to the outside of the drum, adds a little water with soap and pretends to wash. The agitator turns one direction while the drum turns the other neither one actually moves the clothes although occasionally the agitator will grab a partially wet piece of clothing and stretch it beyond repair. After using the heavy duty cycle to wash a coat and winter overalls the coat came out with the same dirt on it that it went in with and yes I put the soap in, I’m not even sure how that’s possible. I do not recommend this product.

Great large capacity washer. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This model has everything I wanted — extra large capacity, agitator, stainless tub, and lots of options. I am very pleased with the efficient way it uses water and the clean results.

Happy with Purchase. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this set not too long ago. However, this has been the best machine I have ever used. I love all the available option choices for load selection and it is super quiet!! My clothes actually smell clean coming out of this washer. I am VERY HAPPY with my washer and dryer set!!

Want to make your cloths even dirtier? This is the 2nd LG washer in a row that we have purchased that has this issue. After about 9 to 12 months of use little black specs come out from the bottom of the washer and end up smearing all over our cloths. We use minimal detergents and tub clean regularly. It is ridiculous that a protect is supposed to clean your cloths actually ruins them. We bought the 2nd washer because we figured the 1st LG may have been an outlier. Unfortunately it seems to be a problem You can expect from an LG washer.

I like this LG, it has every feature you can possible need. Went back to agitator. I had a Samsung washer with no agitator. Never cleaned clothes well. I purchased LG dryer that matched as well. Also a great machine.

Perfect size tub. I bought my washer nearly 3 months ago and am very happy with it. The tub is large enough to wash a comforter or large blanket and the option of a high water level is what I was looking for. I’ve had enough of trying to wash and rinse clothes with too little water and I always rinse each load twice with my last machine. I had seen a couple of reviews that it is a noisy washer, but I haven’t found that at all with mine.

Great LG Washing Machine. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this machine about two months ago and am extremely happy with it. Works great, quiet cycles, and user friendly.

I enjoy this washing machine for the agitator option, and the fact it has a matching dryer, however there’s definitely some quirks. This is my fourth one in 6 years, so i highly recommend the extended warranty option. My first 2 washers experienced a variety of problems after the first year…

Washer for Susan –
Does not remove lint and loud squeaky noise. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the first time I bought a top load, and somewhat disappointed. First of all, all the lints are not removed from the clothes and damages my garments even in ” normal cycle”. Recently I had to have service to change major part under drum because it was making loud squeaky noise when ever it was turning. Third complaint is that dryer does not connect with ThinQ like the washer. called the service and was told there maybe problem with my wifi. washer connects fine and the dryer is right next to it.
One positive is that there is no more oder.

Please LG continue to be a good product leader. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the washer at the top of 2024. My Mom has almost the same washer and I loved using hers. the clothes come out clean and fresh. it doesn’t use a lot of water, my old washer died. I had it 20 years though, so it served us well. This washer is quiet and efficient. I hope it served my family well, it seems to be doing a good job. my only issue is it doesn’t have the short wash feature , like my Moms. otherwise I have no issues.

Checks all boxes! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Superb machine in all aspects. Quiet as possible, hard to even hear in next room. Agitation cleans remarkably well. Spin eliminates water and reduces dryer time & $.

Absolutely love this washing machine. it’s huge and deep and it’s actually cleans the clothes just don’t overfill it. Only laundromat machines can clean when full. Had a front lading prior to this and I don’t miss it all. I wash and sanitize my nursing scrubs and deep clean my daughters…
