The dry cleaner misses my comforters - not sorry!
She sure is pretty! I love that the settings allow us to adjust to desired dryness (as if max dry isn't always the option). Even more love for the digital display that shows estimated timeframe to complete the cycle. You can adjust temp and time or let the dryer use its sensors to run the load on its own. I trust myself more though! The coolest features to me: the steam fresh cycle cause who likes to fold wrinkled, cold laundry? Not me! I've used the sanitary cycle a couple of times but geez that takes more than 2 hours to complete. Still cool and overall it's easy to use! If I could change something about this machine it would be the door and the lint trap. We had the machine professionally installed which includes a (right swing, left open or top partial pull down) door. Of course that was the opposite of what we needed in our laundry room for the most efficient in/out laundry swap! The manual explains how to switch the door swing so we gave it a go. I'm pretty handy but next time i'll grab some cash and ask the team installing the machine to make the changes before taking off. We literally had to unscrew every single bolt, rod, screw, panel and glass piece to dismantle, flip the positioning and reassemble the aforementioned zillion pieces! Don't skip any steps like my husband likes to "attempt" cause you'll just have to start again. Sigh. At least he tried to help! All in all it took about 2 hours of time for something I would've estimated to be less than an hour to complete. Nit picky about the lint trap too. It's placed at the front of the door which is great to remind your kids to use it (hopefully). However, when I pull it out after each load I see small pieces of lint falling and collecting down inside the lint shaft (is shaft the right word?). Maybe this is normal but I can't help but try to scrape the walls and stretch my fingers to grab the loose pieces in hopes to prevent an inefficient dying cycle or eventual clogged vents somewhere inside my house walls. I refused to scratch my bare knuckles anymore and started using a long-ish swirl brush to do my lint collecting. It works but i'd think some smart person would've invented a "lintless" dryer by now! Tech stuff: a king size comforter fits just fine. It still took 2 full dry cycles on the highest heat to complete the task all the way through the middle. All good - I was paying more than $30 to clean each of our comforters at the dry cleaners before. The size of this dryer makes this purchase decision an easy win! If you like the small unexpected things in life like me you'll enjoy the sing songy musical tone the dryer plays at the end of the cycle. LG style. Love it! Final same but separate review - we bought the matching LG top load washer with the 5.5 cubic capacity (we wanted big - we got big). It's so deep I can just barely reach the bottom of the tub to retrieve the clothes. Seriously - i'm 5'4 and can't stand it anymore. I've tried different tools to grab the clothes and a step stool but inevitably end up smashing my "chest" as I lean head first, feet out dangling to swap out the wet clothes. If you're considering the matching set and you're under 5'4 i'd venture to a store to give it a test run!

Love my LG
Exceptional performance. Easy to use settings. Has all the bells and whistles we needed. Dries all our items fast and efficiently. Plus, the door opens in two directions. Very handy. We love our new dryer!

LG Washer-Dryer Set
Bought this pair for a new home in California 3 years ago. Loved the Best Buy delivery & set up and loved the washer-dryer even more. When I sold the house the buyer wanted this washer-dryer set included with the house. So they went with the house and now I bought a new set. Just as happy with the new ones. However the latest delivery and set up by BEST Buy was probably the best delivery and set up that I have ever had on an appliance. The delivery was prompt, professional and the set up and demonstration was everything that we could have asked for. The only reason to go any where else would be for a better price. However since Best Buy matches the lowest price, even after delivery, there is no reason to go anywhere else. Very happy to buy all of my appliances from Best Buy.

First new washer/dryer matching set in 15 yrs!
My first brand new dryer with matching washer set in 15 years I am excited :-)! First, huge shout out to Installers Kyrik and Casey. Both of these young men were highly professional, courteous, took extreme care of removing my old set and bringing and setting up my new set despite my laundry room being located on the second floor of my home. Simply wonderful and polite young men which just added to the thrill of my new purchases. I can’t thank Kyrik and Casey enough for yesterday. Both the new washer and dryer set are beautiful inside out and love the super capacity it holds. I can wash more clothes in one wash instead of multiple washes. I haven’t navigated all of the settings just yet and I still need to set up the wifi function along with the LG app. Bye bye white appliances and hello new technology and style. I love that the dryer comes on by itself if it detects the clothes are still damp. To say that I am pleased with this purchase and over all experience is an understatement! Thanks Kyrik and Casey and thanks Best Buy!

Great dryer
Bought this to replace a still-working dryer because I wanted a set with the washer. It's amazing. The two-way door seemed gimmicky at first but really does make loading easier, and it's larger than what I had before. I really wanted the smart features because I got used to them on my last dryer. Steam refresh is my favorite feature and works great here in just 10 minutes. Regular cycles and sensor for dryness all work well. Had a bit of trouble connecting to wifi at first but unplugging the dryer reset everything and it connected easily after that. No regrets, just enjoying fresh, clean clothes.
