Features
  • 7.3 cu. ft. Ultra Large Capacity Alpine White Gas Dryer

    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.

  • With Smart Pairing, the washer can even tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle¹, making it the ultimate laundry hack.

  • 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.

  • ThinQ UP

    ThinQ UP enabled smart appliances receive continual software updates for new downloadable features and enhancements sent wirelessly to the appliance. Choose which features you want and customize your appliance based on your lifestyle and personal preferences.

  • ThinQ Care

    Available within the ThinQ app, ThinQ Care sends proactive usage, maintenance, and diagnostic alerts to your smartphone to help keep your LG smart appliances running smoothly.

  • TurboSteam Technology

    Go ahead, wear it again. TurboSteam technology reduces wrinkles and odors in garments when you don’t have time to wash. Also refreshes children’s toys, decorative pillows and more.

  • Digital Dial Control with LCD Display

    LG’s built-in intelligence and intuitive LCD dial make it easy to get laundry day dialed in. Streamlined controls give you more of what you need with each turn of the dial, from helpful prompts to status updates to remaining cycle time.

  • ENERGY STAR Certified

    High efficiency sensor drying and low-heat settings save energy and money by using about 20% less energy than conventional models without sacrificing features or performance.

  • NeveRust Stainless Steel Drum

    Just because you want your dryer to last for years doesn’t mean you want it to look its age. The NeveRust Stainless Steel Drum is built to keep drying your clothes more efficiently without showing wear and tear.

  • 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.

  • Shipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug. Gas dryers are configured for natural gas hook-up, but a gas connector must be purchased separately.

Questions & Answers
  • Ive had this dryer for about six days and with every dryer load clothes or towels or seem to get stuck in the door. The trim around the inside of the door catches clothes and then spins it into it as a knot. How do I stop this?

    Clothes getting twisted into a knot, rope, or balll in the ENERGY STAR Certified LG 7.3 cu. Ft. Ultra Large Capacity Rear Control Gas Dryer with LG EasyLoad™ Door, AI Sensing and TurboSteam™, Model # DLGX8601BE, or ion any dryer, Yes, clothes getting twisted into a knot, rope, or ball is a primary sign that a dryer is overloaded. When the drum is too full, garments cannot tumble freely, causing them to tangle and trapping moisture inside, resulting in damp clothes at the end of the cycle. Your clothes need room to move, lift, and separate. If they cannot circulate, they twist together. Overloading prevents hot air from circulating through the center of the load, causing outer layers to dry (or overdry) while the inside remains damp. As the dense, damp, and dry items rub together, they create high levels of static electricity, causing smaller items to get trapped inside larger ones (like sheets) and forming a "burrito" or ball. Instead of lifting and falling, the overloaded mass tends to just slide or stick to the drum walls, which prevents proper separation...^Ivan.
