    In Nov. 2022, I bought an LG electric dryer (Model DLEX7900WE) for about $1,100. I made this purchase because Consumer Reports recommended this “smart” dryer with turbo steam and other features. It worked fine, but I never used most of the features. In Jan. 2025, the dryer began NOT drying clothes. The drum turned, but didn’t heat up. I followed LG website troubleshooting steps, without any improvement. Scheduling an LG service call was incredibly difficult as their chat system routed me to someone who expected me to run all the troubleshooting again instead of just scheduling a service call. He closed the chat session while I was running the test he insisted I run!! Frustrated, I scheduled a repair appointment from another national appliance repair service. This repair tech told me the Main Control Board (the “brain” of the dryer) was blown and had to be replaced.

    The service tech told me the Board must have been defective to fail so quickly. The estimated repair cost: $719.00. Unbelievable! Of course, the manufacturer’s warranty doesn’t cover this repair. Based on this experience, I will NEVER buy another LG dryer! I do NOT recommend anyone else buy one. This unit was built during COVID when computer chips were in short supply. In my opinion, LG put junk computer chips in these dryers and sold them to unsuspecting customers. My next complaint will be to CR for routinely recommending LG dryers year after year when their dryers are junk!

    We purchased the TrueSteam Smart Wi-Fi enabled 7.4-cu ft Stackable Steam Cycle Vented Smart Gas Dryer with next day delivery before Christmas and while the product arrived as anticipated it has never worked and Lowe's faulted us because it was not within 48 hours - while the store was closed on Christmas. Now, we're battling LG (anticipating 3rd repair visit today) through our warranty. Adding insult to injury, the repair company that LG is using (Sears) has cancelled the repair day last minute 4x now.

      Purchased a dryer Aug 2024. It quit heating Dec 2024. Filing a repair claim took a day. It has now been 2 weeks and a repair is yet to be scheduled. The only communication is when I contact them. And the only response I get is to be patient. I'm now told that I need to give them 31 days to try and fix it. If they don't get it fixed, they will try and replace it. Terrible customer service. Cannot recommend.

      I have the LG thin Q dryer. Their largest capacity. I’ve had it just over a year and I use it constantly to wash clothing for my busy retail/thrift shop. I absolutely hate the dryer lint trap. It’s really difficult to clean. Lint gets trapped in all these little holes, it collects on every lip and the lint does not stay contained within the lint trap. Everything else is great but the lint collector is really horrible. If it were a better design I would rate this a 5 out of 5. I had a hard time giving it a three cause that contraption can really annoy me but overall everything else is pretty fantastic.

      Unreliable from day one. Routinely got the infamous “d80” error, despite constant cleaning and realignment of the vent duct. Eventually moved it to a new room, with a minimal run to the vent, and after a few months, it then started giving a new error that suggested it wasn’t receiving enough power. This despite the fact that it’s on a brand-new circuit, and the plug is securely connected.

      When we managed to operate for a time without errors, it still couldn’t dry reasonably-sized loads in only one cycle. We found ourselves having to run extra spins in the washer, just to give this brand-spanking-new dryer something it could handle. But hey: it looks super shiny and has lots of great settings that don’t appear to do anything, and a cute little song that plays when it’s done with your load, whether that load is actually dry or not.

      Worst customer service ever... I used to be a LG promoter until I needed LG customer service, I paid more than USD$2000 in a washer and dryer plus premium service and extra warranty... 3 weeks and 7 calls after received them, I still do not have them working because it is missing parts.

      DLE3400W. This dryer does not completely dry, small or large loads. You can add time but only a couple minutes which is inadequate. Most of our loads are done on delicate or permanent press and don’t come out completely dry. We have reduced the amount of clothing that we put in the dryer taking time to do laundry. When we try to add time it reverts to normal settings as opposed to delicate or permanent press. Customer service wants five dollars to talk to somebody about the problem. The old dryers like whirlpool with the electric timer motor was far superior. It’s been a huge hassle. This machine is not user-friendly and customer service is not user-friendly. I can’t believe Consumer Reports recommended this machine. I tried to post a review on Consumer Reports, but was unable to find a way to do so.

      I purchased a scratch-and-dent LG washer-dryer set on Aug 29, 2024. On Wednesday, September 18 around 1:30 am I was awaken to the dryer on fire. After investigating it the heating element appears to have stayed on after the dryer turned off causing the drum it continue to hear in one spot and catch the clothes on fire.

      I purchased an LG DRYER Model DLE7300WE From Lowe’s approximately 3 years ago. I have had to replace the heat sensor once and now the Main Control Board. When we purchased it there wasn’t many reviews to confirm if the dryer was a good buy. I can confirm after 2-3 years and reading how others are having similar issues. I would not recommend buying LG products. You may think you are saving a few hundred dollars. If you enjoy working on your washer and dryer and replacing parts every 2 years then I highly recommend. If you call someone to come diagnose and repair a control board issue you will pay $500 + equal to what a new unit cost. Fortunately I can replace the board myself for $180. The next time it breaks I will take it back to LOWE'S, put it on a cart and leave in their Showroom for them to dispose.

      The dryer has an insert to catch the lint, that is easy to clean and easy to catch cloth and turns them to shreds. Catching a bedsheet turns the whole load in a big clump. Knitted fabric gets unraveled. Very disappointing.
