A: You will need to fill detergent for each wash in the ENERGY STAR® Certified LG 5.3 cu. Ft. Mega Capacity Smart Top Load Washer with 4-Way® Agitator, EasyUnload™ with TurboWash™ 3D Technology& AI Sensing, Model # WT8405CW. It does not have LG's ezDispense® Automatic Dispenser that you can just fill the reservoirs once and you’re set for up to 14 to 25 wash cycles, and will add just the right amount for each load size—at just the right time. You can even get an alert on your smartphone when it’s time to refill, This washer is designed for use with only HE (High-Efficiency) detergents. For proper wash performance, you should always measure detergent using the measuring device provided by the detergent manufacturer. For an average load, use less than half of the recommended maximum. You will need to use less detergent for soft water, light soil, or smaller loads, and use extra care when measuring 2X and 3X concentrated detergents because even a small amount of extra detergent can lead to problems. Never use more than the maximum amount of detergent recommended by the manufacturer. Using too much detergent can lead to oversudsing, poor rinsing, detergent buildup in clothing, and residue buildup that can contribute to odors in the washer...^Ivan.
A: Hi there, Susana. Thanks for your question about the LG WT8405CW Top Load Washer! This model does include an agitator, but it is not designed to be removable by the user. The agitator is factory-installed and integrated into the washer's TurboWash3D® system to enhance cleaning performance. Removing it could affect wash quality and potentially void the warranty. https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-wt8405cw-top-load-washer#pdp_specs If you're asking for cleaning purposes, the Tub Clean cycle is your best option to maintain your washer’s performance. For any servicing or if the agitator needs to be replaced due to damage, we recommend reaching out to an LG-authorized technician. If you need further help, feel free to send us a message @LGUSSupport—we’re always ready to assist! —Renzo
A: Hello there. Thank you for reaching out with your question about the LG WT8405CW Top Load Washer. We understand your preference for function over efficiency, especially regarding the Deep Fill option. Currently, the Deep Fill feature is not designed to be set automatically for every load. You will need to press and hold the Deep Fill button for 3 seconds before starting each wash cycle to add the maximum amount of water. This ensures flexibility in adjusting water levels based on your specific needs. Please note that after the cycle is complete, the setting will automatically revert to the high-efficiency water level for the next load. https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-wt8405cw-top-load-washer#pdp_specs If you have any further questions or need more information, feel free to send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport. We’re happy to assist! Thank you for choosing LG! —Renzo

Q: Does it have a presoak option. Example load to sit for some time to get socks white
A: The ENERGY STAR® Certified LG 5.3 cu. Ft. Mega Capacity Smart Top Load Washer with 4-Way® Agitator, EasyUnload™ & AI Sensing, Model # WT8405CW, does not have a Soak cycle or a Pre-Soak option. You can download the Pre Wash+ Normal cycle that pretreats immediate stains without hand-wash.

A: Using too much detergent, leaving wet clothes in the machine, and using hard water are all common causes of scrud buildup in your washing machine. Regular cleaning of your washing machine drum, rubber seal, and filters in the ENERGY STAR® Certified LG 5.3 Cu. Ft. High Efficiency Smart Top Load Washer with TurboWash3D™ Technology - Alpine White, Model # WT8405CW, can help prevent scrud buildup and extend the life of your machine. If your multiple attempts to clean the scrud ahve done nothing to resolve the issue, you may have a hard water issue. Hard water contains high levels of minerals like calcium and magnesium, which can leave deposits on the washer's surfaces over time. These deposits, known as scrud, can lead to corrosion of the washer's internal components and reduce its lifespan. You may want to consider installing a water softener, which can help remove minerals from your water and reduce the risk of buildup in your washing machine. The washer is designed for use with only HE (High-Efficiency) detergents. HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of the washer clean. Using a detergent that is not HE may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory performance, which could result in error codes, cycle failure, and washer damage. You should run the Tub Clean cycle monthly to remove residue and prevent odor. Inspect and clean the rubber gaskets and seals. This can help prevent mold and mildew buildup, which can contribute to scrud...^Ivan.
Q: Can I use Deep Fill with all cycles except for bedding? Can it be used with Normal?
A: Deep Fill can be used with the QuickWash, Heavy Duty, Deep Wash, Waterproof, and Downloaded cycles on the ENERGY STAR® Certified LG 5.3 cu. Ft. Mega Capacity Smart Top Load Washer with 4-Way® Agitator, EasyUnload™ & AI Sensing, Model # WT8405CW. When you select the Normal cycle and the Deep Fill option, the cycle is changed to the Deep Wash cycle before starting...^Ivan.

Great Washing machine!! Got this with the matching dryer when they were on sale for just a little more $$ than buying new cheap units. Coming from a cheap 10 year old GE set these are faster, quieter and smart! Well worth stepping up in cost. I connected to the LG ThinQ app and get notifications on my phone when laundry is done. Although I mostly use the normal settings, they are customizable and you can even download different settings to the unit through the app. You can even customize the built in settings if you choose to make them a little different. For example Normal is defaulted to use warm water but my wife prefers cold so I was able to change the normal setting to use cold instead without needing to change this setting every wash. It is connected to the dryer for an AI feature where it can supposedly detect the fabric type, use appropriate settings then give a recommended settings to the dryer but I have not tried it out yet. It is very good at sensing, measuring and monitoring the load to use the correct amount of water and soap without you needing to select that yourself. It is ridiculous quiet, so much so you can barely hear it spinning yet it spins so fast the clothes are barely damp when ready for the dryer. Very efficient. Even though it’s almost the same size as the old cheap washer it holds A LOT more. For size, style, price, performance and features these were in our sweet spot vs other brands. I have been a fan of LG for a long time for TVs and other electronics so had no reservation giving their appliances a try. We have been so impressed we will be looking at LG appliances for our kitchen renovation too.

Just had both washer and dryer installed. Unfortunately the dryer vent hose kit was not secured to the dryer, but just placed in position. Also the vent was smashed a bit due to them placing it into position. The power cord to the dryer was not secured properly to the dryer and was free hanging. Only noticed because it got warm in the washroom while the tech said to run it for the first time to burn off any oils, by than they had left.

I have had this washer for a little over a year and love it. It washes my comforter with ease. I have been so impressed with the washer. I moved from a front load and am so happy I did. Highly recommend this washer.
