    Purchased my dishwasher 02/23. Love the appearance, my silverware sparkles as never before, dishes are properly cleaned - however - after every 4-6 washes I have a putrid smell. I was informed via service call to use vinegar in a dish - tried that - it helped but did not solve the problem. Everything possible has been checked, my dishes are relatively clean when put into d/w (only crumbs are rinsed off). I am very frustrated because my previous d/w gave me no problems and I had it for 20 years.

    I bought my LG dishwasher two years ago. The dishwasher is a swamp when it is finished washing the dishes. I called customer service after the first use. I was told that dishes were not dry because I had not used the extra dry cycle. Used it and that did not work. Then next customer service person said because I was not using Jet Dry, my dishes would not dry. That did not work either. I called for service before warranty expired. No one ever replied and could not reach a live person to set up appointment. Two years and still I have to dry my dishes. I absolutely hate this dishwasher. It does use very little water which is probably why often the dishes are not even that clean after a three hour cycle. I also do not like the silverware rack design.

    After having a Maytag for 21 years, I researched dishwashers thinking that after this time, dishwashers had improved. I always loved LG products. The love affair is over. Customer service awful. I do not think I will ever buy an LG product again. In short, I would not recommend LG dishwashers. Their other products may be a worthwhile purchase, but from reading the other reviews, LG dishwashers should all be recalled. Mine turned out to be junk. I wish I had my Maytag back again.

      My LG dishwasher is not even 2 years old and just paid a $700 repair bill, the computer portion malfunctioned and had to be replaced. I got it fixed and lg refused to help me unless I used their repair people but was using an lg authorized dealer. Don't buy lg, big mistake and will never buy from them again.

      Just got a new LG dishwasher installed, it doesn't dry dishes AT ALL even on high dry setting, entire chamber and all dishes wet. The appliance store said it was LG's problem, LG told me it was the stores after putting me on the phone with an AI assistant, etc. Upshot: I lost $1000 on a piece of garbage. Never buy this brand of anything!!

      I bought an LG dishwasher Quadwash with Inverter Direct Drive about 2.5 years ago. The day after the warranty expired, it started ending wash cycles before they were completed. I called LG for help, but the minute they found out the warranty was expired, they refused to even talk to me. The problem persisted till a few months ago when I had a repairman come and look at it. He cut the power at the breakerbox, re-seated the unit, but he really couldn't say what the problem was.

      After his visit the unit worked. About two weeks ago, the problem started again and then the unit stopped completely draining. I looked at a couple of YouTube videos (because, heaven forbid I try to get LG to help). I shut the power to the machine at the breaker box. I found no problem with the filter or anything else. I started up the power, and I watched the unit re-boot, it worked fine. Then it struck me - we have a couple of short power outages every year. Every time the dishwasher stopped working, we had lost power from a few seconds to a few minutes. In order for the dishwasher to work, every time there is a power outage, it needs to be powered down at the breaker box for 10-15 minutes and allowed to reboot. WHY CAN'T LG LET PEOPLE KNOW THIS???? I am going to buy a new dishwasher and it's going to be anything other than an LG.

      LOOKS LIKE I BOUGHT A REAL LEMON!! I bought an lg LDFN 4542B and it was finally installed the 29th of February. Less than 45 days later, It has been used maybe 5 times as I broke my jaw 6 days later and have had only cups and glasses to wash. I am single so it will never get heavy use anyway. I to went use it two days ago and it would not turn on, dark control panel that does not respond. A service person called yesterday and said they could not come out today, as scheduled, as they had to wait for a part and would call me when it comes in. Last dishwasher a GE lasted for thirteen years and cleaned better.

      Model LDT5678SS top control panel. Dishwasher began leaking after 10 uses. No one can figure out why. Leaks from lower right door. Replaced tub gasket. Still leaked. I have placed tape over door lower seal which seems to help a little. Will be replacing right hinges. Been a nightmares owning this appliance.

      Our quad dishwasher control panel cracked due to faulty parts. The unit is useless after only a few years use. Customer Service is a joke. Chastidy from the pres department offered us 15% new unit. So, they want us to purchase further useless LG appliances?! I will never purchase a LG appliance again. This is from a long time LG loyal customer. It’s sad that you have to wait for a class action lawsuit to finish in order to get decent customer service from LG.

      My LG dishwasher, model #LDT7808SS, is two years old and stopped working after no problems for the first two years. I did not have warranty on this machine. A repair man came and said I needed a new starter, he installed a new one and it did not work. Weeks went by and he said he would diagnose the problem, this never happened. Finally, he called and said I needed a new control board. They wanted $285 for this board, I had already spent $200 on a new starter. I called the company and explained my problem. After much back and forth conversation, all they could do was offer me a 15% discount on parts. For this amount of money I have decided to buy a new machine. My new machine and any new appliances will not be LG.

      I moved into home with new LG smart dishwasher. 9 months in and the smell is horrible. Have cleaned filters, had plumber out. The dishwasher stinks. Tried everything. Smells climbs to my second floor. I think these low water appliances are not using enough water so bacteria from food waste must build up in hoses. And all my silverware is rusted. Beige 20 year old in my old house was much better. I now use 3x as much water washing dishes by hand. Putting this to the curb! Beware before you buy water saving dishwasher.

      LG Refrigerators author review by ConsumerAffairs Research Team

      LG was founded as GoldStar in 1958 in Korea. It is one of the world's largest producers of consumer electronics and household appliances.

      • Moderate to luxury pricing: While LG doesn't offer discount models, it does have a range of pricing to fit most budgets and a variety choices in features.

      • Steam washers available: Hot steam can loosen even the toughest food debris, and many LG dishwasher models use its Truesteam Generator to maximize cleaning power.

      • Height-adjustable third rack: Rearrange the interior of the dishwasher to accommodate different loads as needed.

      • Half-wash mode: Get the convenience of a two-drawer dishwasher in on large tub using the half-wash mode, which allows you to only wash dishes in half of the dishwasher.

      • Large capacity: Wash up to 14 place settings at once. This feature makes holiday cleanup a breeze and is useful for smaller restaurants.
