Our machine works great!
One problemo though.
There are two gray plastic brackets on the back, on the top left and right corners. One can be seen at 0:44.
In our house, one of those intersects with a water pipe and prevents us from pushing washer all the way back, which prevents us from closing the laundry closet door.

Is it okay to remove these brackets?

is there a link to the other video mentioned at 0:24

Just got a new top loader, my LG front loader crapped out after 7 years. Didn't want to but an LG, but they are the highest rated by CR. Hopefully this one lasts longer. At least I got it on sale. Same washer is $150 more today.

There are two small plastic plugs on the water inlets for the washing machine. One is blue and the other red. We assumed these should be removed before connecting the water hoses. The video shows them still in place. Should these not have been removed?

Wow! This video saved me tons of time and hassle with Home Depot. Thanks!

Cant we just put the drain hose on the bathroom floor? Do we have to use the elbow bracket?

[garydonnison]

Do I have to use the hot water connection or can I just connect the cold water inlet?

Can I trim my drain hose shorter if it is too long?

My stand pipe is directly above where my lg drain hose comes out of the machine, 40inches from the floor.

The drain hose about 5ft long is not flexible enough to bend to the other side and back to the drain pipe...

From Pakistan ❤

How about washers with "steam function"!?

[jazzygamingyt]

How high should the drain be placed? LG front load direct drive 10.5/7jg

[helenlimpin]

Why waa the hose raised instead of down rhe floor straight into the drainage so that the water could be fully drained from tbe washing machine?

[terryyouth]

I have a 7kg one and it is not connected to hot water!! The techie said no need to connect hot water..does that mean for past 8 years it was doing cold wash even when i was selecting temp?

[Pinpadprompts]

Still get OE error no matter what. I have to put the hose on the ground and run it out the door otherwise it simply will not drain.

[DominicVictoria]

I don’t understand the molds part. How does the elbow prevent that?

[jimlarge]

How do you replace the drain hose on this model?

[ayyanghazi]

Washers can be damaged by some thing and connect holes to get your machine some water and lg can do terrbo wash

Why the LG washer doesn't have metal covering plate at the underneath bottom of the machine? It will collect dirt and debris from the floor. Thanks.

I thought LG's came with some kind of shipping bolts?

[robfrancis]

It's absolutely ridiculous how you don't mention to remove the 4 transit bolts in this video, which could supposedly void your warranty if you run it without them removed. All you say is to "Make sure washer is completely unpacked and all shipping materials removed, " and that's it? This is an official LG washer installation video, is it not? What is wrong with you people? Why go into such detail about a drain hose and spend 75% of your video focused on that and not even mention the transit bolts once? That's literally the most important thing and it's not mentioned. There should be a class action lawsuit against LG for this. You're basically just hoping that consumers void their warranties on your cheaply made machines so that you're not held liable for any issues in the future. What a dishonest company, but I guess this is the world we live in now. Anything to make an easy dollar. Wow.
