LG Washing Machines Reviews

LG Waveforce Inverter Direct Drive is the dumbest smart washer. Makes all sorts of unnecessary movements, supposedly "balancing" the load. The movement changes nothing. I almost always use "Bulky Bedding" to make sure there's enough water to turn the clothes while agitation. The water finally comes on, full blast, then slows to a trickle until filled. What?! Does the same when doing the rinse. It has to be monitored and adjusted to make sure the clothes are going to get cleaned properly. Give me an old Kenmore with simple, usable instructions and water levels for small, medium and large loads, hot, cold, warm, gentle cycle, kickass cycle. Sometimes, simplicity is the solution.

LG appliances are the worst appliances I have ever purchases. My washing machine leaked and flooded my entire laundry room and my finished basement. I incurred over $12k in damages. The machine was still under warranty. They sent someone out to “fix” the washer, which took forever because I had to keep following up. When they came out to “fix” the washer, I told them the leak was coming from the bottom but they didn’t believe me. So they replaced a tube in the back. Then a few weeks later, when my basement was almost redone from the previous damage, it leaked again and flooded again.

This is by FAR the WORST WASHING MACHINE I’ve ever had. It was getting DIRTY in my dryer so we took it apart and it is DISGUSTINGLY DIRTY INSIDE. We removed the entire drum and it is GROSS. To think I have been washing our clothes in this machine makes my skin crawl. DO NOT BUY ONE.

Purchased a LG All In One in April of 2024 direct from LG.com. We purchased The LG Premium Care. We have had four service calls made. One for not drying and three for the vibration sensor error. Last time it was down for a month waiting on a tech and parts. Now it went out again, we called LG and they told us we are not in their system. We gave them credit card information for proof of purchase, and told them they have approve 3 repairs. They still were no help. Worst customer service ever, worst washing machine I have ever had. Don’t even walk by these machines when you are shopping, run. $2800 down the drain.

Sucks!!! Costs extra $$. wastes extra water and extra energy $$$ due to extra cycles when it should be rinsing!! There is no end to the rinsing cycle. Constantly adds water and re-runs again! Never stops!!

I bought an LG top load washer at Lowe's little over 1 year ago, it's junk. It never gets clothes clean no matter what setting you put it on. It was junk from day one, do not buy this junk. I had Kenmore washer for 25 years with no services at all, clothes clean for 25 years. I think LG should take their junk back and give me other machine. By the way I have used this LG only 6 times. What a waste of my money and I am a senior but LG only cares about fill up their over fill pockets.

Just spent over an hour trying download their app and get the machine connected to the internet just so that I could try to get the washing machine to only spin a load. Why? Because my clothes are still damp after finishing a regular cycle. Unbelievable how frustrating these clowns have made laundry. Never, ever, ever again will I buy another LG product.

I am in an Airbnb rental that has an LG washing machine. I can’t believe how complicated it is to operate. I want a WASHING machine NOT a COMPUTER with AI. I can’t believe how tech obsessed the designers of these products are. I would never buy one. We are going to have our laundry done professionally since we are in Mexico.

I have moved many times and I most always leave the washer & dryer. That being said, I have purchased at least 10 washers & dryers in my lifetime. The LG ThinQ is by far the worst machine I have EVER owned. I made the mistake of getting the one without the agitator. The clothes do not wash properly. When I remove them from washer to put into dryer, there is white residue left on the clothes. I only use liquid detergent and no other product.

I am a loyal LG Appliance customer. We have had 4 LG washers and have been very happy with all of them, except for our latest purchase. We purchased an LG top load washer with an agitator, Model WT8405CB. The water temp on this washer defaults to "sub hot", which is one level lower than hot. However, the default water on this temp setting is still very hot. The owner's manual and LG service center both indicate it should default to warm, which is the middle setting on the washer. No matter what cycle chooses, even delicate, it defaults to this setting. This is not what the owner's manual indicates.
