Excellent washing machine by LG!
This is the first top loader washing machine my wife and I have purchased in 15 years. Our old unit had finally started making those noises. So off shopping we went and came across the LG Turbo Wash 5.0 Cu. Ft. 12 Cycle Mega Capacity High Efficiency Top Loading Washer in White #WT5480CW. I thought, how can no agitator work on cleaning the clothes. Let me tell you, with the clear glass, sitting watching the machine do it's thing, is pretty amazing. Clothes get washed thoroughly and the spin cycle really gets the extra water out. The washer has all the needed functions my wife was looking for and works from heavy dirty yard clothes to dress clothes and everything in-between. My wife says she "highly recommends this washer"!

Very quiet washing machine.
I have had this washing machine for about a month and it has been the quietest washing machine I have ever had. It is very easy to program and operate. The turbo wash is awesome! I like the 10 year warranty on the motor. I think we made the right choice going with this washer.

Finally a washer that works
That is what my wife and I said after the first load with this washer. We moved and our old washer died during the move and we got a new one that wouldn't actually clean the clothes. Then I wised up and got this LG. It is amazing. It cleans like it should. It has a bunch of useful settings. It is so easy to use we haven't even opened the user manual. It has a huge capacity. It is super quiet. It is right outside our kid's bedroom and we can do laundry at night with no fear of waking him up. Plus our kid likes that he can watch through the glass door.

very nice unit for the money
This LG Unit is a replacement unit for a Whirlpool front loader. I needed extra space in my wash room because both front loaders (washer & dryer) faced each other and opened up to each other. No room to move around in such a small space. This LG top loader was the answer to my search for a unit that could handle many different kinds of washing challenges, unit is simi quiet , very strong, many options and different settings, can handle big bed comforters with ease. I can now soak clothes, Extra rinse cycles and has a Turbo wash for quick washes when you're in a hurry. Please read instruction manual first for proper loading and usage instructions. The barrel is deep so shorter people may have trouble reaching the bottom of the barrel to pull out stuff. Over all it is a great unit for the money and very well constructed. Now I have room to move around and get in and out of the wash room to do laundry . . . Happy Camper!! I miss my Whirlpool front loader but I am getting very use to this LG and it is really a great Unit for a top loader. You will be very satisfied with this top loader. LG makes great products!! and they are a great company. Best Buy delivery folks were early and cleaned up their mess. Very respectful and helpful. Great Experience.
