The one-of-a-kind LG WashTower now has a ventless dryer for flexible installation and greater energy savings—using up to 65% less energy to dry every load¹. But it’s still loaded with all of the features that put it at the top of everyone’s “it” list. The single unit design takes up half the space² with an easy reach Center Control LCD panel that delivers everything from helpful prompts to status updates to remaining cycle time. Built-in intelligence makes laundry less of a chore by taking out the guesswork, while top-of-the-line innovations put advanced cleaning power within reach.
- Mega Capacity 5.0 cu.ft. Washer and 7.8 cu.ft. Dryer (WashTower): Say never again to never-ending piles of laundry—mega capacity fits more clothes in every load and helps you power through laundry day in less time. With 5.0 cu. ft. in the washer and 7.8 cu. ft. in the dryer, you can fit big loads of towels or jeans to a king-size comforter and more in a single load, for big time savings every week.
- Single Unit WashTower Design: This vertical laundry solution puts everything within reach. Full-size capacity and features in half the space², and a centralized control panel for the easiest access ever. The ventless design on the dryer offers greater flexibility for more installation options.
- Dual Inverter HeatPump Technology: Meet a more modern approach to drying. LG's Dual Inverter HeatPump technology uses up to 65% less energy to dry every load.³ Not only does this ENERGY STAR certified dryer feature LG’s most energy efficient ventless drying system, the low temperatures are easier on clothes and can help them look their best for longer. And with no need for venting, this dryer is easy to install and is virtually maintenance free.
- Inverter Direct Drive Motor System: When it comes to powerful, reliable performance, there’s just no comparison. Featuring LG's exclusive Direct Drive Motor System, this ventless vertical laundry solution provides even washing and drying performance and precise tumbling motions that are extra kind to delicates.

Control your washer/dryer combo remotely or use voice commands with Google or Alexa voice assistants. Plus, download additional cycles and access Smart Diagnosis, customer support, and more.

- Advanced Washing: TurboWash 360°: From mega capacity to top-of-the-line innovations, the LG WashTower delivers the advanced cleaning performance you need. TurboWash 360° powers through larger loads in less time, thanks to five jets with variable sprays that deliver a complete clean in under 30 minutes⁴.
- Auto Cleaning Condenser: Unlike some dryers that require manual cleaning of the condenser for optimal performance, LG’s Auto Cleaning Condenser does the work for you. Using water extracted during the drying cycle, it powerfully flushes away lint and debris every time you dry for better airflow, better drying and enhanced energy efficiency—automatically.
- 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.

- Tempered Glass Doors with Chrome Rim: LG WashTower uses tempered glass doors for a sleek, stylish look that resists shock and scratches. Chrome rim complements the doors and enhances the premium feel.
- NeveRust Stainless Steel Tubs: Unlike tubs made from porcelain or plastic, the LG NeveRust Stainless Steel Tubs avoid the chips and nicks that can snag fabrics and ruin clothing. Durable surface actually gets smoother over time and keeps your washer and dryer looking like new, even after years of use.
- Tub Clean System: With the LG Tub Clean system, you don’t have to worry about mold, mildew or musty odors. Simply select the Tub Clean cycle, add liquid bleach or other cleaner and let the washer do the work to thoroughly clean and dry the tub, door and gaskets. Run it every month or so to keep your washer—and your laundry—clean and fresh.
- TrueBalance Anti-Vibration System: Noisy, out-of-balance loads can disrupt your laundry routine—and your day. LG helps you wash in peace with the TrueBalance anti-vibration system that keeps even big loads in balance to reduce washer noise and vibration. A must-have for main-floor or second-floor laundry rooms.
- LoDecibel Quiet Operation: Run the washer or dryer whenever you want, without interrupting naptime or your favorite show. The LG WashTower is designed for quiet operation, from the motor to the cabinet to individual components.
- 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.

5 boys create endless laundry!
Size is amazing; easily fit my oversized king down comforter. Most advanced lint trap I’ve ever used - super impressed. Was concerned that dry time would be an issue but it’s not. If I need something quick, I dry it by itself and it finishes very quickly. App is nice and useful. No vent made adding a 2nd easier!
