Q: What is the difference between the wm6700hba and wm6500hba?

A: I 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.

Q: does this have light inside?

A: It 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 up

Q: Can you do a drain and spin or spin only with this machine? The 6500

A: Yes, 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.

Q: We purchased this model last December (2023). It washes great and the capacity is fantastic, but the functionality of the dial to select the type of load you want is no longer functioning. Does this model have a 1 year manufacturer guarantee?

A: I am the person who submitted this question. I wanted to let whomever answered this question that their advice to view the troubleshooting link worked great. A simple unplugging of the wall outlet, followed by holding the power button for 5 seconds, then the pause button for 5 seconds, then plugging the wall outlet back in worked perfectly. Upon powering up again, the Dial now displayed all the available cycle options. Many thanks!

Q: I have 3 dogs and a king size bed. 3dog beds or the king size blanket get heavy when washed; How many pounds of laundry does this machine Handle?

A: Hello 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

Q: How much space do you need behind the washer and dryer? The closet I'd like to put it in is 34.5 inches deep, and the washer is 33 and 3/16 inches deep so I did not know if this would be enough clearance.

A: A. 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

Q: How does the pedestal washer bin work and what is it best use for it? Also, can it be independently used for a small load?

A: Hey Brian! Check out our LG website for more information on ur LG SideKick Pedestal Washers: https://www.lg.com/us/pedestal-washers. ~Rita
