    • Product Height: 14 3/16 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Width: 27 inches (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Depth: 30 3/4 inches (The out of box depth of the item. Depth is measured as the distance from the front of the item to the back as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Capacity: 1 cubic feet
    • High-Efficiency: true (Washers with this label feature technology meant to use less water. High Efficiency (HE) washers may also be larger in capacity. Using High Efficiency (HE) detergent in these washers is highly recommended as they are designed to be quick-dispersing and operate in low water conditions by producing less suds, requiring less detergent. Not using the recommended detergent can lead to additional rinse cycles and increased water usage.)
    • Steam Function: false (In washers, this feature may be employed before, during, or after the main wash cycle. Steam aids in stain removal, activating detergent, sanitizing, and softening wrinkles. In dryers, this feature can be used to remove wrinkles or quickly freshen clothing items.)
    • Washing Mechanism: Impeller (There are two washing mechanisms to choose from in today's washing machines: agitators or impellers. An agitator is a column located in the center of the washing tub. It may be finned or vaned, and works to clean clothes by rotating and rubbing against clothes to break down stains. An impeller is a low-profile cone at the bottom of the tub that uses fins, cones, or discs to create motion. This motion pushes clothes to rub against each other, versus against an agitator, to break down dirt.)

Meet your newest laundry ally—LG's ingenious SideKick washer. Disguised as an everyday pedestal, this mini LG washer pairs with almost any LG front load unit so you can wash two loads at the same time. The main tub is the workhorse taking on your biggest, bulkiest family-size loads like towels and bedding, while the SideKick gives delicates, hand washables and workout wear the special care they deserve. With this LG pedestal washer on your side, you can divide and conquer your laundry—and the rest of your day—like never before.

  • 1.0 Cu. Ft. Capacity: For every big load you wash, there are smaller loads that are a big deal. The compact, 1.0 cu. ft. LG SideKick is specially designed for your small, custom-care laundry loads.
  • 6 Wash Cycles: When the tag reads Gentle or Hand Wash Only? Trust it to the LG SideKick washer. With special cycles for Intimates, Hand Wash and Active Wear, each setting is designed to deliver a thorough clean and proper fabric care for items you prefer to wash separately.
  • Detergent and Softener Dispensers: Small loads deserve all the care and attention of larger ones so this LG SideKick includes separate dispensers for detergent and fabric softener. Add one or both before the start of any wash cycle to ensure clothes come out clean, fresh, and soft to the touch.
  • NeveRust Stainless Steel Tub: Smooth surface helps prevent snags
  • Inlet Hoses: SideKick includes 2 short inlet hoses. For installations with a washer when a single set of hot and cold water lines are present, you will also need 2 additional inlet hoses and 2 y-connectors.

Q: My laundry room has a washer drip pan installer. What is the clearance below the drawer?

A: You cannot install a washer drip pan under either the SideKick™ Pedestal washers or LG Laundry Pedestals because there is not enough clearance for their drawers to open if the washer drip pan has a lip of 1". Other companies do not design their pedestals for compatibility with our washers/dryers or with other brands or manufacture of pedestals other than their own. ~Rita

Q: Can this be used without the big washer above or doesn’t require the main washer?

A: The LG SideKick™ 1.0 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Smart Top Load Pedestal Washer - Black Steel, Model # WD300CB cannot be used as a stand-alone unit. IT shares its water supply line and drain line with the compatible LG Front Load Washers that is installed under...^Ivan

Q: Does the LG Sidekick come with the required installation kit that will allow it to work with a compatible LG washer? Thanks.

A: Hi there! Thanks for reaching out with your question. The LG SideKick™ Pedestal Washer, Model # WD300CB, typically does come with the necessary installation kit that allows it to be paired with a compatible LG washer. This kit includes the hardware needed to securely attach the SideKick to your main washer, ensuring seamless operation. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport. We're here to assist you! —Renzo

Q: Will this unit work with the WM4370HKA LG Washer?

A: The SideKick™ 1.0 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Smart Top Load Pedestal Washer - Black Steel, Model # WD300CB is compatible with the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 4.5 cu. Ft. Ultra Large Capacity TurboWash® Washer, Model # WM4370HKA. Please note that the 'B' at the end of the model number for SideKick™ Pedestal means the color is Black Steel, but the 'K' in the washer's model number is Black Stainless Steel. The SideKick™ Pedestal is not available in Black Stainless Steel...^Ivan.

Q: Is this compatible with WM6500HWA front load washer? Thank you.

A: Hi there! Yes, the LG Sidekick™ Pedestal Washer (model WD300CW) is compatible with your LG Front Load Washer (model WM6500HWA). You will also need the LG Stacking Kit (model KSTK4) to properly stack the two units. This kit helps ensure both stability and the correct alignment when stacking the washer and pedestal washer. The pedestal (WD300CW) is designed to fit below the WM6500HWA, and the stacking kit will allow you to stack the two units securely. https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-wm6500hwa-front-load-washer#pdp_specs If you need further assistance with setup or have any concerns, feel free to reach out to us on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and we’ll be happy to help. —Renzo

Q: Per the online specs, the sidekick measures 14 1/8 in tall, while the pedestal drawer measures 13 5/8 in. Are there built-in height adjusters so that the washer and dryer above them will be aligned?

A: Hello there! Thank you for reaching out with your question. We understand you're concerned about the alignment between the LG Sidekick® Pedestal Washer (model WD300CV) and the washer or dryer placed above it. While the height of the Sidekick itself is 14 1/8 inches, the pedestal drawer does measure 13 5/8 inches, and it does not come with built-in height adjusters for alignment. However, the WD300CV is equipped with leveling legs, which can be adjusted to ensure that the Sidekick sits at the right height for compatibility with your washer or dryer. We recommend adjusting the leveling legs as needed to achieve a balanced and aligned setup. https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-sidekick-wd300cv-pedestal-washer#pdp_specs If you have any more questions or need assistance with installation, please feel free to send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport. Our team is ready to assist you further! We appreciate your inquiry and look forward to helping you! —Renzo

Q: Does this washer have a softer area? Does this one have features the other ones dont?

A: Hi there, Terry. Thank you for your question! The LG Sidekick® Pedestal Washer (model WD300CB) has a capacity of 1.0 cu. ft. and includes a range of unique features. While it doesn't have a specific "softer area," it does offer a variety of wash programs, such as Hand Wash and Intimates, which are designed for delicate fabrics. Compared to other models, this unit stands out due to its compatibility with the LG TwinWash™ system, allowing you to run small loads simultaneously with a larger washer. It also features ThinQ® Smart Technology for remote control and monitoring, plus SmartDiagnosis™ for easy troubleshooting. https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-wd300cb-pedestal-washer#pdp_specs If you'd like more information or need assistance, please feel free to send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be happy to assist you. We appreciate your interest in LG products! —Renzo

Q: Will this work with my LG Washer WM5000H*A?

A: Thank you for your interest in the LG Pedestal. The LG SideKick Pedestal Washer WD300CV is not compatible with your LG washer model WM5000HA. The WD300CV is designed to work with specific LG washer models, and your WM5000HA is not one of them. To see the compatible models, please check the list below: WM3400, WM3470, WM3600, WM4000, WM4200, WM4500, WM5500, WM5700, WM6500, WM6700, WM6998 Since your WM5000HA model is not on this list, the WD300CV pedestal will not work with your washer. You can download its owner's manual through this link for more information: https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-WD300CV.BSSEEUS. For additional assistance, please reach out to us on social media @LGUSSupport so we can help you further. ^Cris

  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    If you need it - it’s worth it

    We have a large family and actually need something like this. It works as advertised, it’s primarily for Delicates and things like that, the one draw back Is the owner manual says not to use bleach but we have enough whites we’re really not using it for that. It works great for the kids baseball uniforms or my daughter’s volleyball uniform or just sweaters and things like that. Between this and the full-size EZ- dispense washing machine we are saving $30 a month in detergent and softener, I’m sure we lowered our electric bill, the clothes are cleaner with a lot less drying time.
