LG Dishwasher Reviews

Many things to like about the LG dishwasher that I bought in January 2024, but other things about it not so good. Pluses are the quiet operation and the good success with cleaning the dried or baked on/burned on residue from dishes and pans. The problem that doesn't seem to have a resolution is this: the AUTO cleaning cycle and the 1-hour option will run only the first part of cycle and then the door releases. It leaves murky water in bottom of tub that has to be drained out (thankfully this can be done by using a 3-second hold on the start button, that fortunately automatically triggers the function to drain the water).

I can't believe this dishwasher. There are so many buttons. It seems like you have to have your college degree in LG just to figure it out, it's a brand new dishwasher and it's already giving me error codes, not to mention it takes 3 hours to wash one load. Can you imagine if you were an actual dishwasher at a restaurant and it took you 3 hours just to wash one load you'd be fired for sure. Come on LG.This is ridiculous.

Three years old. Faithfully followed maintenance instructions. Pump started to leak at base. $350 for a new one. Sorry LG easier to buy a new dishwasher than pay for parts and service. Will not be LG.

Bought mine with the top tray about 4 months ago, top tray is worthless, can't fit any tray. The instructions says "don't need to rinse" even when I rinse, dishes come out dirty. Have tried different settings and none does the job which is clean! It's loud and takes more than 2 hours to complete a cycle.

Our Quad Wash dishwasher seal failed entirely after only 2 and 1/2 yrs of daily use. The rubber was completely shredded at the bottom on both sides, leading to leaking which damaged the cabinets and the floor, and the warranty only covers 1 yr. It cost us $366 CDN to have repaired. I watched the technician install the new gasket and it would have been an easy job. I would just buy the part if it goes on you, and install it yourself. I would suggest checking the bottom of the gasket just before 1yr of use, and if starting to show signs of wear get it replaced before the warranty expires. Watch how they do it, then you are ready for next time.

I bought 6 new LG appliances. They are nice to look at & very expensive, which I thought meant quality. The "steel" on the outside, dents very easily & the inside steel of the refrigerator & microwave scratch from a ceramic or glass plate. I'm extremely cautious with my items & take excellent care of them. I live alone & do not have kids or pets over. I'm home only 2 weeks a month. This should not be happening with anything new & high quality. Also, the expensive dishwasher doesn't even clean your dishes or glasses on the hottest cycle, that is 4 hours long! Yes, you read that correctly. I wipe them off with a paper towel & load them in, no prerinsing as instructed (Tried that too). You must first run hot water in your sink faucet to get hot water to it. That is in the manual! I only drink ice water, so the glasses are not even dirty. So, it doesn't clean them with hot water, Cascade Platinum Plus & Jet-Dri.

LDTH5554S AE error code, service tech said no leak but water is in tray raising float to shut off cycle and flash AE code until circuit breaker is flipped off. So, water is leaving the tub someplace. Second service call placed. Very frustrating. It looks nice, though.

I purchased a LG dishwasher in late Sept 2022, along with the extended warranty and at the beginning of Dec 2022 LG had to replace the motherboard as condensation gets in. Since then my LG dishwasher has had the motherboard replaced 3 times for the exact same issue. I contacted LG and told them what has been happening and their response was that it is after the 1 year warranty and they can't do anything for me. I stressed to them that it has had this issue literally from the time it was purchased and still they are not doing anything for me. LG designs a dishwasher that allows condensation to get into the motherboard and that became my problem according to LG. NEVER PURCHASE LG PRODUCTS - I will make sure my family and friend never purchase LG products - Very, very disappointed..

PIECE OF JUNK! The absolute worst piece of junk called a dishwasher I have ever had. Stay away! It is about 2 years old and I have had constant issues. It beeps all the time, won’t drain water, and does a lousy job of cleaning even when set on heavy wash. What a waste of money!!!

The control board on my dishwasher failed in less than 4 years after the manufacture date. It costs almost as much to repair the unit as it does to replace it. LG will not cover it beyond the 1 year warranty. Customer service escalated my claim and no one contacted me. There should be no problems whatsoever with an appliance of this age.
