    We have our laundry room on the second floor. Our previous washing machine created so much vibration that we feared it would shake our house apart! We tried the sponge pucks under the machine, we always rebalanced the load, but to no avail. We were going to move the laundry room to the basement, at enormous expense, but we decided to try the LG first. This machine produces so little vibration and so little noise that we can sit an chat in the next room without even realizing the machine is running. We have on occasion gone to check the machine to make sure! We used to wash no more than two blue jeans at a time, and we would take our bedding to the laundromat, but no more. The new machine has huge capacity, at least double our old machine on its best day, and I can fill it with blue jeans and it is still almost silent while it works. Whereas before we were reluctant to do laundry, and always carefully chose what items to wash together, and at what time to run the loads, now we find ourselves eager use the machines and we don't have to worry about anything. The machine uses very little water (the self-sensing of the correct water level is very nice!) and very little detergent, yet the clothes come out cleaner and smell better than they ever have with any of the washers we used in the past. (By the way, I read a review where the lady waits by the washing machine with a pitcher of water to add. To her I say, read the manual. You can simply push a button and the machine will use extra water. We find it completely unnecessary, though.) We give this machine the highest marks. We went to the appliance store to buy a different brand, but the obvious build quality and features of the LG won us over immediately. Boy are we glad we made the choice we did, because it changed the way we do laundry.

    I think I was just taken in by the snazzy appearance and electronic wizardry. This is a really pretty washer/dryer combo and looks great in the laundry room but the washer lacks certain features I wanted, features even the salesman didn't know what he was talking about. I wanted a soak cycle, one I could soak clothes in overnight. The salesman assured me this washer would hold a tub full of water overnight or for however long I wanted, even pointing out the "Soak Cycle" on the machine. It doesn't. It drains out after about 45 minutes no matter what you do, even unplugging the machine. There's not a "hot" cycle. Even though you can select "hot wash" what you get is tepid at best. Now, after reading other complaints about this, I find out that this is part of the Energy Star rating for this machine--you never get "hot" water washes. I was not particularly interested in saving the planet when I bought a new washer. I wanted what I wanted in a washer and I didn't get it in this LG Wave Force. Over all, this washer does and okay job on everyday clothes as far as getting them clean and it is pretty to look at; however, if I had it to do over again, especially for this amount of money, I would buy another kind.

        My wife loves the large capacity and the speed of doing a load of laundry. The stainless steel exterior looks nice and the glass lid lets you watch the action.

                    This washing machine is incredible! The features and variety of cycles are great. Clothes come out clean and spun "dry" so they don't take long in the dryer. Machine is quiet and easy to use. I love to do laundry again! Life IS good!!

                        LOVE THIS WASHER!! This washer replaced a 22 year old washer and we have come a long way. The capacity is so large, I only do a few loads a week. The washer is so quiet, you barely know it is running.

                            I love this washer. At 1st I was kind of scared to use but once I got the 1st load in I was in AWW. I love this machine. My clothes have never been so clean and smelling fresh. My laundry room is so small and they fit perfect. I just wish I knew what the heck it was doing when washing cloths. lol but I do love this washer!

I can do 4 loads a week-for a 2 person household and bedding for a boxer pup.--a real time saver. I've never enjoyed doing laundry until now!

                                      We purchased this washer, even though our previous washer was still new. It washes faster, and is so much more quiet..Our other washer was a front load(it was okay)but nothing compares to this. Its holds even more than my other, and still cleans thoroughly. I would recommend this washer to anyone: Quality, Price, Performance.

                                          I love this washer! Its huge which is great for my family. I do about 2 loads a week for a family of 4! Its awesome and I'm so glad I got it. It saves water on its own, but then its large capacity size reduces the number of loads. I've had it for a few months and so far, its been amazing. Honestly, its a bit expensive but its well worth the money. Great washer!!
