Fantastic washer/dryer
I'd like to provide a detailed review of the washer/dryer set I recently purchased for my upper floor, aiming to eliminate the need for constant trips up and down the stairs to my basement set. Before diving into the specifics, a few key points need to be addressed. To start, it's important to note that this review is entirely unbiased, as I paid for the product in full. There were no incentives or sponsorships from Best Buy or LG, ensuring an honest evaluation. Regarding installation, I strongly recommend considering the $29.99 installation service. The unit weighs a substantial 250lbs, and even with two fully-equipped adults, handling it without professional assistance can be quite challenging. Moving on to the positive aspects, the aesthetics of the set are fantastic. Placing it on my upper floor, where it's visible to anyone passing through, required a sleek design – a requirement that this set fulfills admirably. The user interface is user-friendly, with a simple wheel on the display for mode selection. Adjustments for temperature, spin, and soil level are easily made through button presses next to the display, with clear LED indicators. Importantly, you don't have to rely on the app, as all settings can be configured directly on the washer. For those who prefer using the app, pairing is effortless. The LG ThinQ app guides you through the process, making it as simple as scanning a QR code inside the door. The app provides convenient control, allowing you to monitor progress and make adjustments without physically being near the washer. An unexpected but pleasant feature is the interior light, allowing you to observe your load as it runs. However, it turns off when using the app, assuming you're not present – a minor inconvenience. The capacity is impressive, easily accommodating an entire laundry basket's worth of items. The built-in reservoirs for soap and softener are convenient, letting you set usage preferences for each load. In terms of noise, this washer operates quietly – significantly quieter than my standard basement washer. It's so quiet that you could comfortably sleep next to it during the spin cycle. Now, addressing the washing performance, it matches up well with our standard basement washer. The automatic dispensing system may even result in less soap and softener usage over time. Moving on to drying, it's essential to manage expectations. While it dries clothes to the same level as a standard dryer, it takes longer. The advertised two-hour cycle holds true for smaller loads, but a full laundry basket may take around four hours. For towels or comforters, expect a drying time of 6-7 hours. In conclusion, this set is perfect for upper-level laundry needs, offering the convenience of avoiding trips to the basement. However, for larger items like towels and comforters, the extended drying time is a trade-off. We'll still use our basement set for these items due to its faster drying time and cost efficiency with a gas-powered dryer.

Very good
I have no problem giving this unit 5 stars right off the bat. Does this washer dryer combo clean your clothes, yes very well. Most clothes are very dry, sometimes blue jeans are a little damp around the belt line, towels, sheets almost everything else is totally dry. These combo machines require a few minutes a week for maintenance, you must be diligent about cleaning up the lint to get the best efficiency, it's no big deal and only took 10 minutes. The new machine smell was pretty bad the first load or 2 so we started to use the downy pellets, after about 10 loads the smell is all but gone. This unit has been nice most large loads are finished in under 3 hours. We really like this washer dryer combo, frees up space in the laundry room, you don't have to switch clothes to the dryer, all in all it took a little experimenting with different settings to find the sweet spot but we are happy and glad we made the purchase. The dry time may seem long but the energy savings are worth it.

Mostly convenient…
Cycles are long… dry time is double the time what a normal dryer takes. If you don’t remove the clothes IMMEDIATELY, they are wrinkled because the dry cycle doesn’t get warm enough for them to stay warm for a little bit to give you time to get to them. If you wash and dry the jeans cycle, they come out extremely twisted and wrinkled. Jeans have to be washed shook out and then dried in separate cycles like a normal washer and dryer. I would recommend them if you can handle the long cycles. But we also got two of them in order to keep laundry moving faster.
