The 2-way LG EasyLoad door opens hamper style for loading and swings open for unloading for maximum versatility. Quickly move clothes from washer to dryer and dryer to basket—and cross laundry off your list. Easy-to-use electronic controls with LED display and built-in intelligence with AI Sensor Dry take out the guesswork. Activate Smart Pairing in the LG ThinQ app and your LG washer will automatically tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle.¹
7.3 cu. ft. Ultra Large Capacity
Free up your day—fit more clothes in every load with 7.3 cu. ft. of space. Running fewer loads saves energy and money on your utility bill.
EasyLoad Door
The dual-opening options of the LG EasyLoad door make loading and unloading the dryer easier than ever. Transferring wet clothes from the washer? Simply press the release button and pull the door down, hamper style to keep that stray sock from hitting the floor. Removing dry items? Swing the door to the side to clear the way for your basket below. Even tight spaces and challenging laundry-room layouts are no match for versatility like this.
Built-In Intelligence: AI Sensor Dry with 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 drying motions, temperatures and more for advanced fabric care. AI Sensor Dry detects moisture levels and automatically adjusts drying time for loads of all sizes—no more damp clothes, no more overdrying.
With Smart Pairing, the washer can even tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle¹, making it the ultimate laundry hack.
ThinQ Smart Technology
The ThinQ app offers control and convenience to help you simplify life and enjoy the comforts of home. Control your dryer 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.
Electronic Controls with LED Display
LG’s built-in intelligence and electronic controls with LED display make it easy to get laundry day dialed in. Not only can you easily access all the cycles with a turn of the dial, but you can also quickly modify any cycle using the touch panel for total laundry control.
FlowSense Duct Clogging and Lint Filter Indicators
FlowSense Duct Clogging and Lint Filter Indicators let you know when your ducts and filter need cleaning to avoid lint buildup, improve the dryer’s performance for greater efficiency and lower utility bills, and help give you safer, worry-free operation with fewer service calls.
ENERGY STAR Certified
High efficiency sensor drying and low-heat settings save energy and money by using about 20%² less energy than conventional models without sacrificing features or performance.
Aluminized Alloy Steel Drum
An advanced aluminized alloy coating is added to the steel dryer drum to enhance durability and maintain its luster and attractive finish. Helps keep nicks and chips at bay so your dryer looks like new even after years of use.
LoDecibel Quiet Operation
Run the dryer whenever you want, without interrupting naptime or your favorite show. This dryer is designed for quiet operation, from the motor to the cabinet to individual components. Pleasant end-of-cycle chime lets you know when clothes are dry.
Reversible Door
When space is tight or your laundry room doesn’t fit the “typical” setup, this dryer’s door can easily be reversed to fit your needs. Go from a right swing to a left swing in minutes—just unscrew the hinges and reattach using the pre-drilled holes on the opposite side.
Wrinkle Care Option
When you hate wrinkles but can’t be there to remove clothes as soon as they’re dry, just select the Wrinkle Care option before hitting start. The dryer will periodically tumble the load for up to 3 hours after the cycle is done or until the door is opened to help keep wrinkles at bay.
Dryer cords are not shipped with the dryer. It is the responsibility of the consumer to purchase the appropriate cord for their home.
¹Both washer and dryer need to be registered in LG ThinQ app and connected to wi-fi to set up Smart Pairing feature.

- A: AnswerYes, the dryer can be vented to the bottom; there are instructions in the manual. The dryer door does reverse; I did it myself and it took about 45min. I am not sure about the kit, but it shows to use a 4" 90' elbow. This could probably be purchased at your local home improvement store.

Q: QuestionDo you have to download the app to use the dryer?(1 answer)
A: AnswerHello there! Thank you for your question. No, you do not have to download the app to use the LG DLE8400WE electric dryer. The dryer can be used without the app by selecting the desired cycle and settings directly on the control panel. However, if you'd like to take advantage of the additional features such as Remote Start, Smart Diagnosis, and cycle monitoring, downloading the LG ThinQ app would be beneficial. The app allows you to control and monitor your dryer remotely, but it is not required for basic functionality. https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-dle8400we-electric-dryer#pdp_specs We understand your situation, and if you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport.

Q: Question120v or 220v?(4 answers)
A: Answer120vAnswered by myfrigerator
- A: AnswerThe control panel has a temperature setting that could be changed to a warmer setting. If it is still not hot when drying, there probably is something else going on and should be checked out by a service technician. LG does have a customer service number and the machine does have a diagnostic feature that customer service can help you navigate. Good Luck.

BEST LG Top load
I bought the LG washer/dryer set after 3 days of searching. I absolutely love this set. Large capacity, Fits a King Comforter easy. Love all the features it has. AI wash, deep wash and deep fill work great. It is super quiet during operation. The app is definitely a plus to have. Very satisfied with this purchase. No regrets!!!

Amazing!
This dryer is amazing, truly. Drying time is quick, maybe about 30 minutes a load. Sometimes it will pop up with an error (D85 or D90) though if you are doing too many loads one right after another or doing bulky items, because of the flowsense, it is related to your ducts. Definitely check on your ducts, as that was our issue the first day, it was in desperate need to cleaning out. It's nice to have that warning, but can get a bit annoying if it is just because of a bulky blanket and not actually due to the ducts. The filter itself was a bit confusing at first, I was afraid of breaking it, but there is a little latch for it. It is a bit weird with all the lines to clean it off. Overall a great purchase and in all a load takes not even an hour from wash to dry. It means my family and I can keep up with laundry easier and not fight about using as it doesn't take long. It also means I can do mine later at night after work without worry as it's not loud and doesn't take too long.

Do not purchase these washers from Best Buy.
Best Buy delivered two sets of defective LG washer dryers (deemed defective by Best Buy) and they withheld $485.96 from me after taking all appliances/accessories. Not to mention my home is damaged throughout. My brain hurts trying to scroll through photos to attach to this ridiculous review. They have escalated this issue more than 10 times to who knows where, and I am still on hold. Going on 3 hours now. Best Buy will take money from you and refund you in the form of gift cards. I am on the receiving end of a manager making noise about how i should not be telling them ‘how to do their job.’ I have never been met with such stupidity and fraudulent conduct. I paid $1,831.94 for the first round, received $1,601.95 as refund. Then i purchased another round for $1,695.95 and received $1,439.98 as refund. Math is clear as day, and every time it is just escalating this to there and mam, what did you do with the gift cards issued…nothing, absolutely nothing Best Buy. If you check your records, then those gift cards remain unused. It has been 2 months, and Best Buy is still holding onto $485.96. And now this manager must be going on lunch, they hung up on me.
