For every big load you wash, there are smaller loads that are a big deal. The compact LG SideKick is specially designed for your small, custom-care laundry loads.
So you can clean three days of sweat-laden spin class gear now rather than waiting for a full load in your regular washer. Discrete compact washer sits underneath the main washing machine. Also acts as a pedestal to elevate the front load washer for easier loading and unloading.
Built-in Convenience
Use LG SideKick on its own or at the same time as the front load washer above to save time. Each washer operates independently, so you can wash one load in hot and one in cold at the same time. Start or stop a cycle or open the door on either washer without interrupting the other.
Advanced Cleaning and Specialty Care
Wash small loads that can’t wait or specialty care for delicates. It’s hand wash care, now hands-free. Special cycles for Intimates, Hand Wash and Active Wear ensure proper fabric care and thorough cleaning for all items.
Direct Drive Motor 10-Year Limited Warranty
Backed by a 10-year limited warranty, the LG Direct Drive Motor delivers peace of mind with every load. Fewer moving parts means less noise and vibration, greater stability and durable performance you can depend on for years to come.
Inlet Hoses
SideKick includes 2 short inlet hoses. For installations with a washer when a single set of hot and cold water lines are present, you will also need 2 additional inlet hoses and 2 y-connectors.
Requires fill hose (not included) for standard hook-up upon delivery.
