  • Key Specs
    • Color Finish: Black steel
    • Product Height: 14 1/8 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: 29 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 7/8 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.)
    • Height With Door Open: 14 1/8 inches (Measurement from the bottom of the product to its top, with lid fully open.)
    • 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. D.O.E. capacity: For every big load you wash, there are smaller loads that are a big deal. The compact LG SideKick is specially designed for your small, custom-care laundry loads.
  • Built-in Convenience: Use LG SideKick on its own or at the same time as the front load washer above to save time. Each washer operates independently, so you can wash one load in hot and one in cold at the same time. Start or stop a cycle or open the door on either washer without interrupting the other.
  • Advanced Cleaning and Specialty Care: Wash small loads that can’t wait or specialty care for delicates. It’s hand wash care, now hands-free. Special cycles for Intimates, Hand Wash and Active Wear ensure proper fabric care and thorough cleaning for all items.
  • 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.
  • 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: Can you stack the dryer on the washer if the washer is on the sidekick.

A: Yes, as long as the dryer and washing machine are compatible. ^AC

Q: Once it is paired with the matching washer can it run independently or do both have to be running at the same time to use it?

A: It can run independently. We often use it that way. Note that it has its own plumbing and electrical. Make sure your outlet in the laundry room, which is usually a single 30 amp three-prong, is either changed to a double-outlet or you have an adapter that can handle the current if both waster and sidekick are running.

Q: How tall is the set with the sidekick? I can't find the specs anywhere and it's being delivered in two days. I think my cabinet may be too low. Than

A: Total height is 55 1/2 inches. The 5.2 capacity washer is 41" tall, 29" wide & 30" deep (plus you will need atleast 10" more behind the unit for hookup). The pedestal is another 14" tall with same depth and width.

Q: I have existing hot/cold water line connections for my washer. Can the pedestal washer be linked in with the main washer on the same lines or would it require having a plumber out to create a separate dedicated set of connections and valves?

A: The LG 29 in. 1.0 cu. ft. SideKick Pedestal Washer in Graphite Steel, Model # WD200CV installs beneath your LG front load washer, just like a regular pedestal. It has its own power cord that plugs into a standard 120V/60 Hz household outlet, so there’s no need for special wiring. You also won’t need separate water or drain lines—the SideKick™ washer includes two Y-connectors for the hot and cold water lines, a third Y-connector for the drain and the necessary hoses to install the SideKick™ in concert with your LG front load washer. The SideKick™ and your front load washer operate independently, so you can wash one load in hot and one load in cold at the same time. You can also start or stop a cycle or open the door on either washer without interrupting the other. It offers six distinct cycles. Each cycle offers a unique combination of wash motions, water temperatures, rinse cycles and spin speeds that is ideally suited for the different types of loads. Depending on the cycle you choose, the LG SideKick™ washer automatically employs one of three wash motions, WaveForce,™ Rubbing or Swinging, to ensure optimal cleaning performance for all of your smaller loads. Just like any other washer, simply lift the lid and load clothes into the tub, making sure to avoid overloading. Use the detergent cup that comes with the washer to add the correct amount of liquid or powder HE detergent and then close the lid. Press the Power button and select your desired cycle, press Start/Pause and slide the drawer back into the frame. ^CP

Q: Why is the washer so big if it only has 1.0 cu ft capacity? Is all the space above this just an empty 'box' for show? I'd rather just save the space and buy one that's sized to 1 cubic foot.

A: The main washer is Huge (5.2 capacity). The Sidekick is 1.0 capacity, which is a smaller separate washer that sits underneath the main washer and it is a pedestal.

Q: When placed on the floor, what is the ground clearance? What is the maximum lip height for a washer tray/pan that this pedestal can work with?

A: The LG 29" SideKick™ 1.0 Cu. Ft. 6-Cycle High-Efficiency Pedestal Washer - Graphite Steel, Model # WD200CV has less than an inch of clearance under it and you will not be able to place a washer tray/pan under it. You can use a washer tray/pan that the entire unit can fit in that has enough clearance spacing in front of the SideKick™ Pedestal Washer that allows you to open the drawer or has a lip that is less than an inch. The SideKick™ Pedestal Washer has a depth of 50 9/16" with the drawer open which means you need a clearance of over 19 11/16" in front of the SideKick™ Pedestal Washer to open the drawer fully...^IFV

Q: Hi, Does the Sidekick work with a LG toploading washer? or does it work only for LG Front load washers? thanks

A: Please see the following link for compatibility: http://www.lg.com/us/twinwash/pdf/LG-TwinWash-Compatibility-Chart.pdf ^AC
