The 2-way LG EasyLoad door opens hamper style for loading and swings open for unloading for maximum versatility. Quickly move clothes from washer to dryer and dryer to basket—and cross laundry off your list. Easy-to-use electronic controls with LED display and built-in intelligence with AI Sensor Dry take out the guesswork. Activate Smart Pairing in the LG ThinQ app and your LG washer will automatically tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle.¹

  • 7.3 cu. ft. Ultra Large Capacity: Free up your day—fit more clothes in every load with 7.3 cu. ft. of space. Running fewer loads saves energy and money on your utility bill.
  • EasyLoad Door: The dual-opening options of the LG EasyLoad door make loading and unloading the dryer easier than ever. Transferring wet clothes from the washer? Simply press the release button and pull the door down, hamper style to keep that stray sock from hitting the floor. Removing dry items? Swing the door to the side to clear the way for your basket below. Even tight spaces and challenging laundry-room layouts are no match for versatility like this.
  • Built-In Intelligence: AI Sensor Dry with Smart Pairing: Forget about endless sorting or toggling through cycles—built-in sensors use AI technology to detect fabric texture and load size, then automatically select the right drying motions, temperatures and more for advanced fabric care. AI Sensor Dry detects moisture levels and automatically adjusts drying time for loads of all sizes—no more damp clothes, no more overdrying.
  • ThinQ Smart Technology: The ThinQ app offers control and convenience to help you simplify life and enjoy the comforts of home. Control your dryer remotely or use voice commands with Google or Alexa voice assistants. Plus, download additional cycles and access Smart Diagnosis, customer support, and more.

  • FlowSense Duct Clogging and Lint Filter Indicators: FlowSense Duct Clogging and Lint Filter Indicators let you know when your ducts and filter need cleaning to avoid lint buildup, improve the dryer’s performance for greater efficiency and lower utility bills, and help give you safer, worry-free operation with fewer service calls.
  • ENERGY STAR Certified: High efficiency sensor drying and low-heat settings save energy and money by using about 20%² less energy than conventional models without sacrificing features or performance.
  • Aluminized Alloy Steel Drum: An advanced aluminized alloy coating is added to the steel dryer drum to enhance durability and maintain its luster and attractive finish. Helps keep nicks and chips at bay so your dryer looks like new even after years of use.
  • LoDecibel Quiet Operation: Run the dryer whenever you want, without interrupting naptime or your favorite show. This dryer is designed for quiet operation, from the motor to the cabinet to individual components. Pleasant end-of-cycle chime lets you know when clothes are dry.
  • Reversible Door: When space is tight or your laundry room doesn’t fit the “typical” setup, this dryer’s door can easily be reversed to fit your needs. Go from a right swing to a left swing in minutes—just unscrew the hinges and reattach using the pre-drilled holes on the opposite side.
  • Wrinkle Care Option: When you hate wrinkles but can’t be there to remove clothes as soon as they’re dry, just select the Wrinkle Care option before hitting start. The dryer will periodically tumble the load for up to 3 hours after the cycle is done or until the door is opened to help keep wrinkles at bay.

Q: Hi. I already exchanged this dryer once. This is my second one and when the gas kicks on it’s loud. I can hear it come on in the other room. I had LG come out and they said it was normal, however my first one didn’t make this noise. using natural gas

A: My LG dryer is louder than any other dryer I’ve owned, it hasn’t been an issue since it is located in our garage. I’m pretty sure it doesn’t make a difference but my dryer is flat black.

Q: Hi, can we change the vent from the back to the side with this LG model? Thank you!

A: Hello there, thank you for your question! We understand you're asking if it's possible to change the vent from the back to the side on the LG DLG8401WE Front Load Gas Dryer. Yes, this model supports side venting, and you can switch the vent to the side. To do so, you’ll need to purchase the Side Venting Kit (part number 383EEL9001B), which is designed specifically for this purpose. https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-dlg8401we-front-load-gas-dryer#pdp_specs Once you have the kit, follow the instructions included to ensure proper installation. If you need further guidance or have any questions during the installation process, feel free to send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and we’d be happy to assist you further. We appreciate your patience! —Renzo

Q: Can this dryer be run on propane instead of natural gas?

A: Hello there! We understand your inquiry about the LG DLG8401BE 7.3 cu ft Smart Gas Dryer and running it on propane instead of natural gas. This dryer is propane (LP) convertible, but it does not come with the conversion kit in the box. To convert your unit, you’ll need the LG-approved Propane Conversion Kit (part # 383EEL3002D / LPK1), which can be purchased separately through our Parts Store or an authorized LG service center. Troubleshooting Step: Once you’ve installed the propane conversion kit, always perform a gas leak test on all connections before operating. Mix a small amount of dish soap with water, apply it to each fitting, and look for bubbles—this confirms a secure seal. Also, verify that your gas supply pressure matches the specifications in the installation guide to ensure optimal drying performance. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lg-7-3-cu-ft-smart-gas-dryer-with-easyload-door-matte-black/6573550.p?skuId=6573550 For step-by-step guidance on conversion or to schedule a service appointment, please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be more than happy to assist you. We appreciate your patience and look forward to helping you get your dryer set up just right. —Renzo

    Great dryer

    Great dryer!! Got this with the matching washing machine 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. It is connected to the washer for an AI feature to get recommended settings from the washer but I have not tried it yet. It is very good at monitoring the load and adjusting time so the clothes are perfectly dry. Can even have it tumble awhile after to keep wrinkles at bay until you are ready to remove the clothes. Even though it’s almost the same size as the old cheap dryer 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.

    LG 7.3 Cu Ft Smart Gas Dryer

    We love this dryer. The noise level is almost nothing, the door has 2 options for opening so you don't have to switch the washer/dryer around to load from the washer into the dryer. Very clean look. Dries in half the time in comparison to the old dryer.

    Dent and scratch give it a try!

    When I bought it from Best buy it didn't have as many dings and dents it was delivered with more dents. I actually have the before and after photos when we purchased it in the store first thing I look for was the dings and dents. However with some persuasion the dents were then magically improved the dryer works perfectly. The installer that came in was amazing fast and polite. It definitely dries much faster than our previous and this is a gas dryer it does have more space than our previous one The only downfall is the LED touch screen the sensor is somewhat temperamental so don't have oily fingers.
