Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between the wm6700hba and wm6500hba?(3 answers)
A: AnswerI believe the only difference between the two is the 6700 model has ezDispense which adds just the right amount of detergent and fabric softener for you, with capacity to clean 18 loads with 1 easy fill.Answered by ezDispense
Q: Questiondoes this have light inside?(6 answers)
A: AnswerIt does have a light inside, but the power must be on for it to come on. If you just open the door, it does not light upAnswered by HTMC
Q: QuestionCan you do a drain and spin or spin only with this machine? The 6500(3 answers)
A: AnswerYes, you can do a Rinse and Spin, or Spin Only with the LG 6500. However, those selections are not on the original cycle selection list. You have to add them to the cycle list using the main dial and a "add additional cycles" step. Once added, they are on the list. There are many other preset cycles that can be added as well.Answered by FullyCharged
- A: AnswerHello there! Thank you for your inquiry about the WM6500HWA. We understand how important it is to find a washer that can handle heavy loads, especially with pets and large bedding. The WM6500HWA has a generous capacity of 5.0 cu. ft., which can typically handle around 20 to 22 pounds of laundry per load. This should be sufficient for washing multiple dog beds or a king-size blanket, making it easier to manage your laundry. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please feel free to send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport. Our team is here to help you! We appreciate your patience. —Avril

- A: AnswerA. To ensure sufficient clearance for water inlet hoses, drain hose and airflow, allow minimum clearances of at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) at the sides and 4 inches (10 cm) behind the washer. Be sure to allow for wall, door, or floor moldings that may increase the required clearances. ~Tanisha

Great front load washer
I love my new LG washer. I love the features and ease of use. I didn’t give it a 5 because the rubber seal started to disintegrate after using it the new washer. Best Buy is replacing the washer so no worries there. If u r wondering if the washer will fit a California king- it won’t. But I washed a regular king sized comforter without any issues. I would recommend this washer

Stamp of Approval!!!!
I love this washing machine!!! Very happy with my purchase. I reviewed so many front load washers and really did my homework before buying. Excellent product quality and I love the light so you can see. Just push the start button on wait a few seconds and then turn it off and the light will stay on for about 1 minute. It really helps seeing the laundry when taking it out to make sure you do miss a sock or something. I washed queen size comforter with any problem. Also towels and it seems to wash the clothes so much better than the Samsung I use to have which was crapola!! So happy I bought this LG washer!!!!
