A: Sorry, I have not found any front load that does not need to leave the door open to prevent the smell. I think if you used every day you might not need to, but if you use the way most do and run weekly loads, you need to vent the drum since the units are built to seal well and not leak during operation. The same may apply to the soap and softener drawer as well. The units are sealed well enough that any moisture has no why to evaporate.
A: To use the pre-wash option, you need to press and hold in the extra rinse button for 3 to 4 seconds. Thank you so much Ms.TereseaS This was literally driving me up a wall lol.
Q: what is 6Motion Technology?
A: Hello, Magnolia. The LG WM3470CM front-load washer features 6Motion Technology, which uses up to 6 different wash motions to provide a smart cleaning experience that is gentle on clothes and maximizes washing performance. Specifically, the 6 different wash motions are: Scrubbing: The combination of water supply and the washer's movements scrubs the clothes to remove dirt and stains. Rolling: A rolling wash motion helps lift and tumble the clothes for thorough cleaning. Stepping: A stepping wash motion gently moves the clothes up and down to clean them effectively. Swing: The swing motion helps move the clothes from one side of the drum to the other for even cleaning coverage. Filtration: This motion filters the wash water through the clothes to remove dirt and detergent. Tumbling: The final tumbling motion helps rinse away any remaining dirt or detergent. This 6Motion Technology, combined with the washer's ColdWash feature, allows the LG WM3470CM to clean clothes effectively using cold water, providing energy and cost savings compared to a traditional warm water wash. ^Sam
Q: How long is a normal cycle? How long is the towel cycle?
A: The normal cycle on the LG 5.0 cu. ft. Mega Capacity Front Load Washer, model WM3470CW, has an approximate time of 57 minutes. The towel cycle, which is used for washing towels and cotton garments, has a longer duration. It has an approximate time of 73 minutes. The duration of the towel cycle may vary depending on factors such as load size, fabric type, adjustments to wash/rinse temperature, spin speed, and soil level. ^Danee
Q: does this fit a california king szed big comforter well without being cramped?
A: Yes it fits great I have the same type of bed and can fit a quilt and more in
Q: What does the Wifi do? Is there any use, since there is no app?
A: Hi Polly, this model washer is Thin Q compatible. By connecting to the app via Wi-Fi, you're able to use the smart diagnosis feature to easily access the current state of your product and help you troubleshoot your issue when the appliance malfunctions. ^Chris
Q: Does this washer have speedwash? if yes how long is the cycle.
A: Yes and the time varies depending on how dirty the clothes are. The fastest cycle is 15 minutes, the slowest for dirtier clothes, 25 minutes. You set it. Note that the default heat setting for speedwash is hot. You'd need to enter warm or cold if you don't want hot.
A: The unit does come with a drain line, the length was already cited by LG answers, but it does not come with new water lines, that is either an add on charge if you buy them from Best Buy as part of your purchase, or you can buy most any length from local hardware sources. My local stores had 3', 6' and 10' lengths. You should replace your lines regardless of the condition of your old ones, it is just a good safety measure. In addition, if the 60" drain is not enough, many hardware stores sell universal drain lines that should also work with this device.

Good washing machine.
Bought this together with the stackable dryer. Assembly was a little cumbersome due to space limitations, definitely need two adults to do safely. Washer had a mild factory smell that disappeared after first few washes. Cleans well despite using hard water. Is reasonably quiet and although we got the most basic model currently offered, it has all the options we need. Large size allows to wash bed covers, comforters, blankets etc easily, however also means that one can’t really do small loads of “fancy” items (wool or other delicate fabrics). One thing that gets a little annoying- when using it with the stacked dryer, the stacking hardware impedes the ability of the detergent tray to pull out smoothly - must use force to pull the tray out (could potentially shorten lifespan). Overall we’re happy with the washing machine. Hopefully will last a while.

Perfect washer for any home
I recently purchased the LG 5.0 Cu. Ft. 6Motion, and I’m thoroughly impressed. This washer is a game-changer. The 5.0 cu. ft. capacity is perfect for handling large loads, saving me time and energy. I guess the 6Motion technology offers a thorough, gentle clean by using six different wash motions, and my clothes come out spotless every time. The washer is also incredibly quiet and efficient, with a modern design that looks great in my laundry room. The intuitive controls are easy to use, and the various cycle options cater to all my laundry needs. Plus, it's energy-efficient, which is a bonus for both my utility bills and the environment. Overall, the LG High-Efficiency Front Load Washer is a fantastic investment. It delivers excellent performance, is user-friendly, and makes laundry day much easier.

Look no further if you need a new Washer
This LG washing machine came highly recommended by a service technician who came out to my home for my previous washer. It cleans so quietly and efficiently. I love all of the washing options including the ability to change the speed of the spin cycle. I also like the size of the tub, it easily accommodates king size bedding. I highly recommend this model and would purchase it again!
