- Features
- Hard Food Disposer: false (This feature has blades to chop and disintegrate hard food particles, making them small enough to easily drain away. This prevents them from being recirculated back onto dishware and allows for easy maintenance.)
- Drying Method: Heated drying (Appliances that use heat to dry the dishes will include a heating element or minerals which transform moisture into heat. A fan or vent then circulates the hot dry air throughout the tub during the drying cycle. This may reduce drying time and the risk of water spots. Appliances that use minerals to produce heat are considered more energy efficient than those that include a heating element. Appliances that use condensation drying are considered more energy efficient than those that use heated drying. Instead, high temperature water is produced during the final rinse cycle which warms the interior and eventually condensates and drains out of the machine.)

The LDPH7972S is worth every penny!!!
We got our LDPH7972S nearly two months and boy, is it fantastic! Actually, "game changer" sums it up best. Don't listen to the negative reviews - if you're like us and haven't upgraded your dishwasher in over 10 years, you will be completely awed by how AMAZING this LDPH7972S is in comparison. For starters, it is SO quiet! We never ran our old dishwasher at night, it was so loud. Not this one: we frequently run it on a delay after midnight for time of use savings on our electric bill and we never hear it running! Instead, we're greeted in the morning with sparkling dishes, cups and utensils to be put away. The LDPH7972S does an incredible job of cleaning and drying, especially compared to our old dishwasher. With Finish rinsing agent and quality dish detergent tabs, whatever we wash comes out sparkling clean. We've also found the Night Dry with Dry boost gets everything dry, with the only exception being the bottoms of upside-down coffee mugs or anything else that can collect water if not overturned and/or angled correctly. That's also vast improvement over what we were used to seeing with our old dishwasher. Another feature we like is how easy it is to lower or raise the second and third racks. I could go on about all of the great features of the LDPH7972S, such as the ThinQ app - but suffice it to say that every feature that LG describes on their website about this dishwasher are spot on and work just as described. But there are a couple of incredible features that might go unnoticed in other reviews, so we will mention them here. First, the LDPH7972S is a sleek and beautifully designed dishwasher that instantly upgraded our kitchen and forever transformed our experience with dishwashing. Second are the LED lights, both on the inside of the dishwasher as well as the external LED display that appears near the top center of the door when the machine is powered on. These latter two features are game-changers. Being able to see clearly inside the machine upon opening the door is obviously wonderful, and the exterior LED display is pure, high-tech sorcery. See our uploaded photo of the external LED: I can't stop marveling at how it magically appears without there being any hint of a display screen in the stainless-steel door. Thanks to this LED display, you’ll always know the time remaining on the selected wash cycle. It then displays “End” when done, so you’ll never have to open your dishwasher to find out if it’s really done. We love doing our dishes with the LDPH7972S and you will, too!

Nice dishwasher that cleans pretty well. Very quiet compared to our old one. It seemed to get a little louder until the filter/trap was cleaned. I dont know if that was it or just coincidental but it was quieter after. Interior light is nice. App gives you plenty of control.
