  • Key Specs
    • Color Finish: White
    • Product Height: 13 5/8 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Width: 27 inches (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Depth: 30 3/4 inches (The out of box depth of the item. Depth is measured as the distance from the front of the item to the back as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Capacity: 1 cubic feet
    • High-Efficiency: true (Washers with this label feature technology meant to use less water. High Efficiency (HE) washers may also be larger in capacity. Using High Efficiency (HE) detergent in these washers is highly recommended as they are designed to be quick-dispersing and operate in low water conditions by producing less suds, requiring less detergent. Not using the recommended detergent can lead to additional rinse cycles and increased water usage.)
    • Steam Function: false (In washers, this feature may be employed before, during, or after the main wash cycle. Steam aids in stain removal, activating detergent, sanitizing, and softening wrinkles. In dryers, this feature can be used to remove wrinkles or quickly freshen clothing items.)
    • Washing Mechanism: Impeller (There are two washing mechanisms to choose from in today's washing machines: agitators or impellers. An agitator is a column located in the center of the washing tub. It may be finned or vaned, and works to clean clothes by rotating and rubbing against clothes to break down stains. An impeller is a low-profile cone at the bottom of the tub that uses fins, cones, or discs to create motion. This motion pushes clothes to rub against each other, versus against an agitator, to break down dirt.)
    • Washer Load Type: Top load
    • App Compatible: false (The product can be connected to a program or software application on a mobile device, which then receives collected data from the product.)

Q: I looked at this unit, it has separate power control's, independent from the top load washer. It's water supply line fitting's are standard and it has an external gray water disposal port. Why couldn't it be used independently in a dorm or camper setting?

A: Ok, I installed my set last night. I placed the sidekick washer under the dryer (LG said it was only designed to go under washer) and it works fine. The unit has no need for the top washer, except the back left corner has a switch that senses the washer (or dryer in my case) is on top to allow it to work. If you placed a weight on there or bypassed it, I don't see any reason it would not work stand alone in dorm/camper, etc.

Q: What is the difference between WD100CW and WD200CW. I noticed they have the same functions listed on the description but also noticed the 200 is more expensive.

A: The difference is in the width of the unit. The WD100CW is meant to be used with comparable LG washers that are 27 inches wide, while the WD200CW is to be used with comparable LG washers that are 29 inches wide

Q: Can this be used alone without a full-sized washer and stacked alone under a dryer?

A: Yeah, juat secure it. We have it installed on our sailing yacht. There is a "weight" sensor on top, and you can just tape it down. It works great for us. Ours is mounted, so theres no chance of it moving, but in my experience, it doesn't move even if its not secured. Its perfect for us. Sure it's small, but we only wash t-shirts and shorts in the carribean anyways. Definitely overpriced, but oh well.

Q: Do you need a third power outlet for this sidekick (washer, dryer, sidekick?) or does it plug directly into the washing machine for power?

A: The LG - SideKick 1.0 Cu. Ft. 6-Cycle High-Efficdicated iency Pedestal Washer, Model # WD100CW has its own power cord has to be plugged into its' own dedicated standard 120V/60 Hz household outlet. A 15 Amp Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended...^IFV

Q: Do you have to use the Sidekick with an LG washer or can it be used with other brands too?

A: There's a switch that needs to be blocked. And it will work.

Q: There has to be a drip pan under the LG washer (can't easily be removed). Can the Sidekick instead be placed under the dryer? (Apparently LG does not recommend this). Will the dimensions of the dryer and Sidekick match exactly?

A: You can stick this thing under anything. Theres a small button inside the clip on the left hand side. As long as it is pressed down the machine will work.
