Features
If you’ve ever struggled trying to reach items at the bottom of the tub, get ready for a more comfortable, ergonomic experience. Our EasyUnload angled front design puts all 5.3 cu. ft. of capacity within easy reach—and no sock left behind. A simple dial control plus convenient touch panel and built-in intelligence make it easy to customize your wash or let AI Wash do it for you. All with a sleek, modern design that elevates any laundry space.
5.3 cu. ft. Mega Capacity
Say never again to never-ending piles of laundry—this mega capacity washer fits more clothes in every load and helps you power through laundry day in less time. How big is 5.3 cu. ft.? Big enough to fit a king-size comforter and more in a single load, for big time savings every week.
EasyUnload
The key to our EasyUnload design is hidden beneath the sleek glass lid. We’ve angled the washer front for a more comfortable, ergonomic reach. Now you can easily retrieve stray items from the bottom of the tub—with no sacrifice in capacity. Pair it with an LG dryer that has the 2-way LG EasyLoad door and seamlessly transfer clothes from washer to dryer and dryer to basket.
Built-In Intelligence: AI Fabric Sensor / Smart Pairing
Forget about endless sorting or toggling through cycles—built-in sensors use AI technology to detect fabric texture and load size, then automatically select the right wash motions, temperatures and more for advanced fabric care. With Smart Pairing, the washer can even tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle¹, making it the ultimate laundry hack.
Consumer Reports Recommended
The WT8405CB (Matte Black) and WT8405CW (Alpine White) Top Load Washers have been named Consumer Reports Recommended products.
4-Way Agitator
Specially designed fins create a unique 4-way wash action that moves clothes left and right, up and down for a thorough clean that’s still kind to clothes.
Sleek, Modern Design
You’ve never seen a top load washer like this. The flat front and matte finish are a perfect contrast to the high-gloss sheen of the full-width glass lid. Sleek electronic controls with LED display make it easy to get laundry day dialed in. With style that’s right at home in 1st or 2nd floor locations, the SlamProof lid is a must-have for gentle, smooth and quiet closing, every time.
ThinQ Smart Technology
The ThinQ app offers control and convenience to help you simplify life and enjoy the comforts of home. Control your washer remotely or use voice commands with Google or Alexa voice assistants. Plus, download additional cycles and access Smart Diagnosis, customer support, and more.
ThinQ UP
ThinQ UP enabled smart appliances receive continual software updates for new downloadable features and enhancements sent wirelessly to the appliance. Choose which features you want and customize your appliance based on your lifestyle and personal preferences.
ThinQ Care
Available within the ThinQ app, ThinQ Care sends proactive usage, maintenance, and diagnostic alerts to your smartphone to help keep your LG smart appliances running smoothly.
TurboWash3D Technology
A complete clean with gentle care in 37 minutes². A powerful jet spray, plus the tub and motor that rotate independently and in opposite directions, creates a powerful water flow that causes garments to rub against each other throughout the cycle for enhanced washing performance.
6Motion Technology
Based on the cycle you select, LG 6Motion technology uses up to 6 different wash motions, each designed to get clothes cleaner and help them last longer. Options range from a scrubbing PowerMotion that helps to dissolve stains to the gentle Swinging motion that’s ideal for delicates.
Deep Fill
LG top load washers use precise wash motions to ensure clothes move efficiently through the detergent and water mix and come out ultra-clean, all while saving energy and money. But if you decide you want to add extra water to the occasional load, LG gives you the option to get your (deep) fill. Press Deep Fill at the start of any cycle to select the maximum water level.
Cycle already started? Just hit Pause, Deep Fill and then Start. Another plus—the one-time setting will automatically switch back to high-efficiency water levels the next time you’re ready to wash.
Direct Drive Motor 10-Year Limited Warranty
Backed by a 10-year limited warranty, the LG Direct Drive Motor delivers peace of mind with every load. Fewer moving parts means less noise and vibration, greater stability and durable performance you can depend on for years to come.
ENERGY STAR Certified
This LG high efficiency washer uses far less water and energy than a conventional washer for savings that add up with each load. Get additional savings with load-sensing technology that adjusts water levels and wash times or by adding the ColdWash option to almost any cycle.
True Balance Anti-Vibration System and LoDecibel Quiet Operation
Run the washer whenever you want— LG 's True Balance Anti-Vibration and LoDecibel systems are designed for quiet operation that keeps even big loads in balance to reduce washer noise and vibration. A must-have for main-floor or second-floor laundry rooms.
TubClean System
With the LG TubClean system, you don’t have to worry about mold, mildew or musty odors. Simply select the TubClean cycle, add liquid bleach or other cleaner and let the washer do the work to thoroughly clean and dry the tub, door and gaskets. Run it every month or so to help keep your washer—and your laundry—clean and fresh.
Quick Wash Cycle
Let's face it: Sometimes, you just don't have time to wait for a standard wash cycle. When you're in a rush, LG's Quick Wash Cycle gets small lightly soiled loads refreshed in just 15 minutes.
Requires fill hose (not included)
for standard hook-up upon delivery.
¹Both washer and dryer need to be registered in LG ThinQ app and connected to Wi-Fi to set up Smart Pairing feature.
²Based on internal testing in normal cycle, with an 8 lb. load (December 2023).

Q: Is the agitador removable? (1 answers)
A: Hi there, Susana. Thanks for your question about the LG WT8405CW Top Load Washer! This model does include an agitator, but it is not designed to be removable by the user. The agitator is factory-installed and integrated into the washer's TurboWash3D® system to enhance cleaning performance. Removing it could affect wash quality and potentially void the warranty. https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-wt8405cw-top-load-washer#pdp_specs If you're asking for cleaning purposes, the Tub Clean cycle is your best option to maintain your washer’s performance. For any servicing or if the agitator needs to be replaced due to damage, we recommend reaching out to an LG-authorized technician. If you need further help, feel free to send us a message @LGUSSupport—we’re always ready to assist! —Renzo- A: Sorry, I’ve never tried that. I just don’t put fabric softener in the tray if I don’t want any.
- A: The top of the lid is not flat. It slopes from about 39 3/4 inches to 37 3/4 inches.
- A: No trouble at all... i have wifi but i do not connect it to it...
- A: Hello there. Thank you for reaching out with your question about the LG WT8405CW Top Load Washer. We understand your preference for function over efficiency, especially regarding the Deep Fill option. Currently, the Deep Fill feature is not designed to be set automatically for every load. You will need to press and hold the Deep Fill button for 3 seconds before starting each wash cycle to add the maximum amount of water. This ensures flexibility in adjusting water levels based on your specific needs. Please note that after the cycle is complete, the setting will automatically revert to the high-efficiency water level for the next load. https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-wt8405cw-top-load-washer#pdp_specs If you have any further questions or need more information, feel free to send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport. We’re happy to assist! Thank you for choosing LG! —Renzo
- A: Thank you for your interest in the LG Washer. To use a wash cycle you downloaded on your LG WT8405CB washing machine, follow these simple steps: Select the Downloaded Cycle: After downloading a cycle from the LG ThinQ app, choose it on your washing machine's control panel. Look for the "Download" option. Cycle Retention: Remember, the downloaded cycle won’t stay set like the regular cycles (e.g., delicate or normal). You have to select it each time you wash since the machine won't automatically keep it. Using the App: You can choose the downloaded cycle from the machine or manage it using the app for more customization. However, it’s not necessary to use the app every time. In summary: After downloading a cycle, select it manually on the machine for each wash, as it won't stay set like standard cycles. You can download its owner's manual through this link for more information: https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-WT8405CB.AEBETUS. For additional assistance, please reach out to us on social media @LGUSSupport so we can help you further. ^Cris
