$1, 300 of junk ‼️ Along with all the other complaints which I 100% agree with under this video, my favorite is I have to stand in front of the machine every time it's filling with water because when I put a comforter to wash (or any other load of clothes) the water line fills to below the comforter so the top half of the fabric/s is sticking out of the water - dry.. and you have to keep pressing add more water, add more water, add more water and wait. What an expensive piece of garbage‼️I wish I had read these reviews before buying it.

I'm using my LG 13kg top loader for 14 years now... Used between two and three times a week.

No problems from day one 👌👌

it's far better than our old maytag, the clothes actually smell clean and you don't have to spend time readjusting everything

We bought one of these LG models without an agitator - its awful. Clothes don't clean 1/2 as good as the 30 yr old model it replaced!

We just purchased an LG steam washer and dryer set from Sears in 2010. Yes we have going through a couple repairs. just a couple of days ago. We noticed that on The spin cycle, that it’s not seeming to spin very well. We took them out of the washer and they were dripping soaking wet. Yes talking about the clothes them selves, we had put them in the dryer and we had to run the dryer twice. Once this wash machine and the dryer set goes up, I will be looking for an old school grandma Kenmore set from the early 70s or the early 80s, or looking for a speed queen. Will be the last step we will ever buy from LG or Samsung or whirlpool or Maytag. We even have to run the washer when the speed wash cycle at night since it’s a lot cheaper, how is this high-efficiency?? This will be the last time we will ever buy or even own high-efficiency appliances again.

I've had mine for about 4 weeks now and I hate it! It is a joke, no roll over whatsoever!

Hello everyone I see a lot of comments on here about people saying that they're disappointed with their LG washer will I had the 7300 and now I have the 7900 both are excellent they do everything that they said they're supposed to do the 7900 is humongous but the 7300 was big as well the 7900 has theme effect along with the dryer and that's an excellent feature very satisfied with these features and the ability other cleaning thank you LG thank you folks out there for listening God bless.

I have this washer the newest model . I like it but I really do miss the old school washers where u can soak your clothes specially whites !!!!

I wanted it to work so much and I believed these commercials and thought "people were just not doing it correctly or not reading instructions" but the reality of the fact is I regret it now. Clothes often come out dry in spots (even on deep water setting) and more than 1 out of 4 come out with detergent spots still on the clothes. Whoever came up with the "new technology" it talks about in this video is/was incompetent. (probably fired by now.. I hope)

Strange. I got a similar model 3 yrs ago, but why mine spin a slower than the one in the video?
I always doubt why the drum does not spin powerfully. Now I see mine is defected.. but 1 yr warranty expired. =(

All of these LG washers were obviously engineered by people who live in cities and never get anything worse than a cappuccino stain on their clothes. These are not suitable for country folk who get serious dirt on their work clothes. Really dirty clothes need to be FULLY IMMERSED in hot, soapy water and agitated for a LONG time to mechanically loosen and rinse away the dirt. I'm sure these machines are great for suburban gardeners who need to clean a bit of mud from their Dockers. But real working people need to be able to control their tools to serve their needs. Why not give us a setting that completely fills the tub and agitates for a long time? Like many parts of the country, we don't have a water shortage here. This is not the Central Valley of California. I live on a farm in Kentucky and have unlimited well water.

what i don't like about these machines is them determining how much water i have to use

[laurat]

2 months old and problems already. Wish I bought Maytag with agitator.

I bought a wash machine TS1365NTP / 01 a year and a half ago and 3 weeks ago we noticed a smoke smell coming from the machine. We contacted the customer service over 2 weeks ago and we do not get our problem solved. Our old machine was also LG and it worked fine over years, but it seems LG products are not what they used to be.

Does LG sell Top Loaders with agitator in Australia?

Sorry for my poor English...
I made so much research after we exchanged our Maytag washer bravo XL for this one (I had before for 14 years the American classic... manual with agitator).
I am super picky person, I have no idea for how long this LG washer will last, but so far I am satisfied with it. There is not perfect product these days! Samsung wasn't the option for soooo many bed reviews, I didn't like Maytag Bravo XL. But I did like the dryer, although 8.8 CU was huge.
Back to this LG washer...No issues here with low water or dirty clothes after washing. I pre soak dirty clothes, or also do extra rinse.
If I will have a man who comes home from work with extremely dirty clothes...or children with extremely dirty clothes...then I would choose a good washer with agitator.
With this LG, if you aren't satisfied for some reason with level of the water...here is a trick...add one basket of water top of the dry clothes before washing, you will fool the sensor, and it should give you more water in the drum.
I was NOT satisfied with the LG dryer! It had sensory issues and stopped cycle sometimes over and over again. It took long time to get dry certain clothes.
It has overall bed rewies. Cracked drum, sensor issues....
So.. I wanted Electrolux... highly recommended by my friend's and my sister...but Best Buy doesn't have them...So I got Maytag with steamer👌🏻

This is the exact washer I have with the matching dryer. I’ve never in my life been so disappointed in two expensive machines ever! People ask what all is wrong with this pair and basically to sum it up; everything!

[UberKrispy]

Well I bought the LG 4.8 top loader with the agitator. I've only done a couple of loads but it seems to do a real good job. I kind of regretted not getting the impeller but I had just heard too many bad things about it.

[lunardream]

in the inside of the washer at the bottom mine came off now I have what looks like a hub cap sitting in my washer I am pissed since my washer isn't that old!!

[fartpluswetone]

I've used this washer after a Samsung front loader had an accident with the belt snapping, and I've had no issues, it's clean and it smells good, just make sure to use a n affresh tablet and tub clean cycle once a month, clean out the gunk in the bleach tub, and cycle out the wet laundry quickly.

Update: LG dies due to drain pump failure.
