LG - 4.5 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Top-Load Washer with TurboDrum Technology - White
- Key Specs
- Color Finish: White
- Product Height: 44 1/2 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Product Width: 27 inches (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Product Depth: 28 3/8 inches (The out of box depth of the item. Depth is measured as the distance from the front of the item to the back as it would be primarily used or placed.)
- Height With Door Open: 57 1/4 inches (Measurement from the bottom of the product to its top, with lid fully open.)
- Capacity: 4.5 cubic feet
- High-Efficiency: true (Washers with this label feature technology meant to use less water. High Efficiency (HE) washers may also be larger in capacity. Using High Efficiency (HE) detergent in these washers is highly recommended as they are designed to be quick-dispersing and operate in low water conditions by producing less suds, requiring less detergent. Not using the recommended detergent can lead to additional rinse cycles and increased water usage.)
- Steam Function: false (In washers, this feature may be employed before, during, or after the main wash cycle. Steam aids in stain removal, activating detergent, sanitizing, and softening wrinkles. In dryers, this feature can be used to remove wrinkles or quickly freshen clothing items.)
- Washing Mechanism: Impeller (There are two washing mechanisms to choose from in today's washing machines: agitators or impellers. An agitator is a column located in the center of the washing tub. It may be finned or vaned, and works to clean clothes by rotating and rubbing against clothes to break down stains. An impeller is a low-profile cone at the bottom of the tub that uses fins, cones, or discs to create motion. This motion pushes clothes to rub against each other, versus against an agitator, to break down dirt.)
- Washer Load Type: Top load
- Matching Dryer Model Number: DLE7100W, DLG7101W
- App Compatible: false (The product can be connected to a program or software application on a mobile device, which then receives collected data from the product.)

Q: does this washer have an agitator
A: This washing machine does not have the center agitator - however, once you put your clothes in this amazing machine will jiggle and wiggle the clothes until they are all balanced and ready for washing. The stainless steel inside of this washer is huge! You can easily do two sets of sheets at a time, and again, with the new technology of back and forth/swishing washing system your clothes really do get very clean! The lid is clear so you can watch all of the nifty things this washing machine does. It also has a slow close lid which is rare. No more slamming of lids on your hands or HEAD!! I am not a professional reviewer! Just a very happy customer.
A: Have the same problem with this lg machine. There is either not enough water or to much. Have no control over the water. I have tried every way i can think of to adjust it. No success. I will know better about which machine to buy next time. It will not be a lg.
Q: Can I wash a king sized comforter in this machine?
A: Yes I have washed my king size quilted spread in it.
A: When you press the Start/Pause button to begin the wash cycle on the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 4.5 cu. ft. Mega Capacity Top Load Washer in White, Model # WT7100CW, the lid locks and the Door Lock indicator lights up once a cycle has started. The indicator light stays on until the cycle is paused, stopped or has finished. If you need to add additional garments after the wash cycle has started, you will have to wait until the "Add Garment" light illuminates near the beginning of the wash cycle to indicate when it is safe to add items to the load. At that point, you can press the Start/Pause button to pause the cycle. The lid will unlock and you can add garments to the load and press the Start/Pause button to resume the cycle. The wash temp can be adjusted for most cycles. The rinse and spin cycle is only available with Cold water. ^CP
A: NO, It should not be doing that. When placing your clothes in the washing machine, your center of the machine should not have clothes covering it. Place clothes around the sides of the machine tub, evenly. go around adding layer on layer. Your manual gives directions on how to place clothes in machine.The clothes in the machine must be balanced, so when it spins, it does not mess up the bearings, with an unbalanced load. I hope this makes sense to you. I had to replace my washing machine, because of uneven loads, it got so bad my washing machine sounded like a jet taking off, when it was spinning the clothes dry. I hope I helped.
A: Hi Kawena. Make sure that you are using only HE (High-Efficiency) detergent with the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 4.5 Cu. Ft. 8-Cycle Top-Loading Washer with 6Motion Technology, Model # WT7100CW and that you are following the detergent manufacturer's directions on how much to use. Using the wrong detergent or too much HE detergent causes excess suds and the washer will try to get rid of the excess suds by adding time to the cycle...^IFV
Q: Is it difficult for a short person , say 5'3" to remove the wet clothes?
A: Yes it is difficult it's just too deep I fel like I'm going to fall in
Q: What additional items are needed to hook up this washer? LG Model WT7100CW
A: You’ll need new water supply lines. Just make sure you replace the supply lines with the metal braided type. This type is a must to prevent a possible blown hose in the future that could cause water damage where your washer is installed. If Best Buy is installing, they will bring the right supply lines to replace with. They will charge 29.99 for a set that’s 6 ft in length, but when I purchased this unit online they came without an additional charge with it. Not sure if it was a promotion so give it a try. By the way the washer is awesome and well worth buying. Enjoy.
