ENERGY STAR Certified
High efficiency sensor drying and low-heat settings save energy and money by using about 20% less energy than conventional models without sacrificing features or performance.⁴
Closet Depth
LG closet-depth washers and dryers (under 33 1/2" depth) are worth showing off, but when space dictates otherwise it’s good to know they’ll easily fit in a closet with plenty of room to close the closet door.
Install the pair side-by-side, or get a stacking kit and install the dryer over the washer to save even more space.
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 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.
Tempered Glass Door with Chrome Rim
LG front load washers and dryers use tempered glass doors for a sleek, stylish look that resists shock and scratches. Chrome door rim and matching digital control knob complement the door and enhance the premium feel.
NeveRust Stainless Steel Drum
Just because you want your dryer to last for years doesn’t mean you want it to look its age. The NeveRust Stainless Steel Drum is built to last.
Dryer cords are not shipped with the dryer. It is the responsibility of the consumer to purchase the appropriate cord for their home.
¹Refresh in just 10 minutes up to 5 garments, based on TurboSteam wrinkle removal test conducted at LG’s test lab facility (October 2014).
²Both washer and dryer need to be registered in LG ThinQ app and connected to Wi-Fi to set up Smart Pairing feature.
³Appliance must be set to remote enable. Wi-Fi and ThinQ app required.

5 Months & 5 Stars Later
So I’ve been using this dryer for 5 months and can honestly say that now that I’ve put it through its paces and figured out its quirks, I absolutely love it. As with every dryer there are alway Pro’s and Con’s. I’ll start with the high level pro’s in case you don’t care to read the whole review. The DLEX6500W drys fantastic, is quiet, has a lot of cycle options, some better then others, love the smart capabilities and how it tells me when my load is done/I can remotely extend the cycle from my phone, looks beautiful with the rose gold, love the LCD dial control, has a light in the drum (nice bonus), #1 most importantly has a stainless steel drum (important since the DLEX6500W has a steam feature, plus it won’t chip over time like aluminum alloy painted drums can if you are drying heavy clothing with buttons etc) and what ended up being the #2 most surprisingly important feature to me, which I was clueless about until I started reading the reviews on LG’s other models, the lint screen/trap on this model is located external to the drum which helps to avoid getting lint all of your cloths and floor each time you remove the screen to clean). No seriously, it’s a HUGE complaint on some of their lower end and higher end dryers. My biggest advice to you prior to buying is to make sure you double check what Best Buy lists on the spec of each dryer with what the manufacturer has listed. On Best Buy’s appliance comparison, I originally purchased the DLEX5500W because it was cheaper, and said it had a stainless steel drum. But after I happened across the manufacturers website, i found that Best Buy incorrectly lists the 5500 as having a stainless steel drum, when in reality it’s painted aluminum alloy. I’ve found this issue with multiple appliances on the Best Buy site, so if there is a feature that is truly important to you, fact check on LG’s site before you purchase. Now for the quirks. You will notice a lot of reviewers complaining about an error message of having a 90% blocked duct with instructions to clean the lint screen and or ducts. Oh yes, this will happen to you, even if you just had your ducts professionally cleaned. Don’t be put off by this. After you’ve confirmed that there are truly no blockages, this is what I’ll tell you. The LG sensors are hyper sensitive. The way you get around this quirk is the following: 1. After every load, wipe the lint screen with a paper towel on both sides. Don’t just use your hand, cuz somehow this ridiculously hyper sensitive dryer will detect lint particles unless you use a dry paper towel. 2. After you are done with laundry for the day, along with wiping down the lint screen with a dry paper towel, second step, wipe it with a wet paper towel or, run it under the water faucet for a few seconds and let it air dry over night before placing back in the dryer. Once I started doing that, I stopped receiving the 90% blockage error message. I’ve done a lot of research on this. It won’t matter what model you choose, this will be the problem and the solution for all of them. Lastly honest opinion on dryer program settings. I use power dry the most as it gets everything the most dry the fastest. AI clean I found works best for clothing only. Don’t bother with the heavy items on this setting because you’ll be waiting for hours to dry. Towel setting is fantastic. Heavy blankets/comforter setting, meh, don’t waste your time that just went on and on. Steam setting is great. Overnight setting to keep cloths from wrinkling AWESOME. In summary, if it comes down to the DLEX6500 and DLEX5500 for you, pay the extra $100 for the DLEX6500 and you’ll get a stainless steel drum and a lint screen located external to the drum. I have zero regrets with this purchase.

Awesome LG washer
The LG washer is amazing! Please dont forget to take the shipping bolts off, it happened to us and the washer sounded like it was going to break it was shaking the entire house. My husband wanted to take it back and upon reading the instructions it comes with shipping bolts that beed to be removed. LG washer is very quiet and it has awesome sounds you can program to it as well as cute images. Awesome features! It definitely is a must have!
