Nice Washer
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This is a nice large capacity front loading washer. We're okay with the color but wish they had more color options. Our old Kenmore set were candy apple red with heavy use of chrome...POP! We stacked our new washer/dryer set to save space for a clothes folding table. Does a great job with washing but it makes a loud bang 4 times every time we wash a load or I would have given it a 5 out of 5. Not sure if we need to call for service or if this is what it supposed to do. Otherwise I would recommend this washer.

Lg 5.2 cubic ft washer
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I bought this washer as I had a 5.3 cu ft top load washer (which was a whirlpool cabrio and works great) I just wanted something I could stack later if I decided to remodel later on down the road. I honestly don’t have any complaints about the washer it does what it’s supposed to do and is good at it but it has a cycle for anything almost imaginable so if it’s not cleaning properly you are either adding too much soap as these machines can get by using only two tablespoons of concentrated detergent and you use more than the recommended amount that what causes the odor in it and not leaving the door ajar. It may be time consuming for some people to take 15-20 seconds to wipe off the bellow in the machine to keep mold build up down but that’s just part of owning a front loader. I love the turbo wash feature as it uses the recirculating pump to get the detergent and softener into your clothes make them smell great after they are clean I posted several pictures of the controls soap dispensers and the interior of the washer to give anyone a better look to see if this is what they are looking for

- A:Answer The ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 5.2 Cu.

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.

Q: QuestionHow can I use OxiClean powder in my LG - 5.2 Cu. Ft. High Efficiency Front load washer. There is no dispenser for it.
Asked by Pinky.
- A:Answer I just either put it in the actual load or in the laundry dispensary. If you use the laundry dispensary, overtime there will be build up. Just put it in the load and use presoak option and it will dissolve the oxiclean and wash you're clothes. It works pretty good.
