Better than the rest

I read so many horrible reviews on the manufacturers that I expected to use, e.g. Maytag, Kenmore. LG customers appeared satisfied and happy, which is more than I could say for other washer reviewers. It has a cycle at the beginning called Load Sensing. It moves the clothing around. I'm assuming the purpose is to "even it out". It does the opposite. If you put the load in evenly, it changes it so it's out of balance and you have to redistribute it prior to the wash cycle. Just weird. It has the Add a Garment feature, which shouldn't even be a feature on a washer but I'm happy it has it. The capacity is HUGE. I have never filled it. Seems like quality equipment, which it should be for the price. I've had it for a month and so far, so good. The number of wash settings is excessive. Nobody needs that many. I always choose the same cycles...partially due to what other customers complain about from other manufacturers: the agitation is so rough, it can damage or twist your clothes. I always use the "lightly soiled" setting and it's not a problem. My clothes still come out fine. The cycles are longer than the old machines...45 min. - 1 hour. However, there is an Express load. I would have given it 5 stars but didn't due to the Load Sensing issue.

WE have had the washer for five months, and we are very dissapointed. We like all the features that are present and bought our LG off of the reviews. We are very dissapointed with the lint and wrinkled clothes left behind on the clothes, we have tried everything to alleviate the problem.

Comments about LG White Top Load Washer:

I've had my LG washer for several months and so far I love it! I purposely selected a top load HE washer because I've heard that front load washers can collect water in the door and start to get funky. Plus I never have to bend down to load it. Even though it's a top loader, it is still beautiful, and the capacity is awesome!

Rusting!

Comments about LG White Top Load Washer:

I am very disappointed that my 1 1/2year old machine is rusting around the bleach dispenser. It runs fine but the body is going to fall apart around it. I have been very careful to leave the lid open and dry it after use. I like that I can wash large items, comforters etc.but I feel the machine will not last. I would not recommend this product.

I love this washer! It has a huge capacity and for a family of 5 it is wonderful. It get's everything really clean and is whisper quiet! It's also more gentle on clothes than the washer with the agitator. I love all the different features and settings. It actually makes laundry fun!

Do not buy this product

By Brenda1

from Clayton, GA

Comments about LG White Top Load Washer:

This is the worst washer I've ever owned. There is not enough water when washing and you can't control the water amount. It doesn't even cover the cothes. It is CONSTANTLY out of balance and if you aren't in the room the entire time it will fill up with water to try and balance itself out which runs your bill up even higher. You cannot get hot water in half the selections. Very unhappy with this washer!!! The dryer is great but stay away fromt he washer.

Comments about LG White Top Load Washer:

Love this machine - using the tide pods in it - took me a while to figure out that you just throw the pods in the machine & not try to put them in the liquid detergent tray.....duh.....No problems so far but love the capacity! And are old machine used to "walk around" but not this - very steady.

I love the LG brand. I looked at this washer last year and the price was a little out of my budget. But one year later I'm proud to be the owner of this washer. The features are fantastic. The ease of use incredible. Would recommend this washer to anybody that wants to listen. Thanks LG!!

Comments about LG White Top Load Washer:

I bought this to replace a broken maytag. I couldn't be happier with the choice. With no agitator, I don't have to worry about it being out of balance. It also allows me to wash bigger loads, but I have to be careful because my dryer is not as big. Once it dies, I will get an LG dryer.

Who would have thought LG could make good washing machines? I can tell you, they do and it works great!

I've been shopping at Abt since the mid-90's and wouldn't go anywhere else. From price to sales to delivery service. The store is ... well simply put, AWESOME! Way to go Abt!
