Q: Can I wash a king size comforter? Coleman sleeping bag? King size bedspread? What is the biggest thing I can wash: King/Queen, Bedspread/Comforter/quilt/coverlet/blanket.

A: Yes. But I would suppose it depends on the thickness of your comforter. This is the biggest wahing machine I could find.

Q: Is this unit stackable with the recommended LG dryer? Would I purchase the 27" part?

A: Yes, this is stackable. The stacking kit is model number KSTK2.

Q: How can I use OxiClean powder in my LG - 5.2 Cu. Ft. High Efficiency Front load washer. There is no dispenser for it.

A: You should add it directly in the drum. Make sure to use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent for front-loading washing machines. If you use a detergent that does not dissolve easily or a detergent with high viscosity, it will leave a residue on the tub, which may not rinse properly. ^Daphane

A: The ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 5.2 Cu. Ft. 14-Cycle Front-Loading Washer with Steam - Graphite Steel, Model # WM8100HVA is equipped with a white LED light that illuminates when the washer is turned on. This light automatically turns off when the door is closed and the cycle starts.The drum light can be turned on during a wash cycle by pressing and holding the Extra Rinse/Drum Light button for 3 seconds during the wash cycle. The drum light will illuminate and then turn off automatically after 4 minutes. Clothes and the gasket may look like yellow due to lights of the lamp, but it is normal...^IFV

Q: Can this washer be purchased with the door opening in the other direction?

A: We apologize for the inconvenience, the washing machine door cannot be reversed or ordered with an opposite swing door. ^CP

Q: Is there a way to manually adjust the water level on this washer? I know they come from the factory preset for a certain water level based on clothes weight. My last model the water level seemed way too low so I want to know if this one can be adjusted?

A: Hello and thank you for the great question. By selecting the soil level it helps determine the water level but you can not actual select the water level yourself. ^AC
