LG's mega capacity washer saves you time and energy while not compromising on cleaning performance. Our 6motion technology uses up to 6 different wash motions to provide a smart cleaning experience that is gentle on clothes and maximizes washing performance. The 5.0 cu. ft. capacity on washer means you have even more room to do laundry in fewer loads. And ColdWash technology uses cold water and enhanced washing motions to penetrate deep into fabrics, giving you cold water savings with warm water performance.
A: Sorry, I have not found any front load that does not need to leave the door open to prevent the smell. I think if you used every day you might not need to, but if you use the way most do and run weekly loads, you need to vent the drum since the units are built to seal well and not leak during operation. The same may apply to the soap and softener drawer as well. The units are sealed well enough that any moisture has no why to evaporate.
A: To use the pre-wash option, you need to press and hold in the extra rinse button for 3 to 4 seconds. Thank you so much Ms.TereseaS This was literally driving me up a wall lol.
Q: what is 6Motion Technology?
A: Hello, Magnolia. The LG WM3470CM front-load washer features 6Motion Technology, which uses up to 6 different wash motions to provide a smart cleaning experience that is gentle on clothes and maximizes washing performance. Specifically, the 6 different wash motions are: Scrubbing: The combination of water supply and the washer's movements scrubs the clothes to remove dirt and stains. Rolling: A rolling wash motion helps lift and tumble the clothes for thorough cleaning. Stepping: A stepping wash motion gently moves the clothes up and down to clean them effectively. Swing: The swing motion helps move the clothes from one side of the drum to the other for even cleaning coverage. Filtration: This motion filters the wash water through the clothes to remove dirt and detergent. Tumbling: The final tumbling motion helps rinse away any remaining dirt or detergent. This 6Motion Technology, combined with the washer's ColdWash feature, allows the LG WM3470CM to clean clothes effectively using cold water, providing energy and cost savings compared to a traditional warm water wash. ^Sam
Q: How long is a normal cycle? How long is the towel cycle?
A: The normal cycle on the LG 5.0 cu. ft. Mega Capacity Front Load Washer, model WM3470CW, has an approximate time of 57 minutes. The towel cycle, which is used for washing towels and cotton garments, has a longer duration. It has an approximate time of 73 minutes. The duration of the towel cycle may vary depending on factors such as load size, fabric type, adjustments to wash/rinse temperature, spin speed, and soil level. ^Danee
Q: What does the Wifi do? Is there any use, since there is no app?
A: Hi Polly, this model washer is Thin Q compatible. By connecting to the app via Wi-Fi, you're able to use the smart diagnosis feature to easily access the current state of your product and help you troubleshoot your issue when the appliance malfunctions. ^Chris
Q: does this fit a california king szed big comforter well without being cramped?
A: Yes it fits great I have the same type of bed and can fit a quilt and more in
A: The unit does come with a drain line, the length was already cited by LG answers, but it does not come with new water lines, that is either an add on charge if you buy them from Best Buy as part of your purchase, or you can buy most any length from local hardware sources. My local stores had 3', 6' and 10' lengths. You should replace your lines regardless of the condition of your old ones, it is just a good safety measure. In addition, if the 60" drain is not enough, many hardware stores sell universal drain lines that should also work with this device.
Q: Does this washer have speedwash? if yes how long is the cycle.
A: Yes and the time varies depending on how dirty the clothes are. The fastest cycle is 15 minutes, the slowest for dirtier clothes, 25 minutes. You set it. Note that the default heat setting for speedwash is hot. You'd need to enter warm or cold if you don't want hot.

This LG washing machine came highly recommended by a service technician who came out to my home for my previous washer. It cleans so quietly and efficiently. I love all of the washing options including the ability to change the speed of the spin cycle. I also like the size of the tub, it easily accommodates king size bedding. I highly recommend this model and would purchase it again!

Our previous washer busted on a random day, it gave up on us. Found this beauty here on best by and it arrived just in time. It fits perfectly in our basement and was easy to move with a dolly cart. The hook up was easy, plug in was simple, even my kids started wanting to do laundry. Their favorite part is the sweet chime when the cycle is finished. As in the name it really is fast and efficient! We appreciate the delivery drivers for arriving as fast as they did. We see this efficient washer lasting us for a long while!
