A:AnswerYes, for installation you'll need to buy separately universal dishwasher install kit which includes the waterline hose and power cord if you choose to plug the unit into an outlet. There are a few other components in this kit but don't apply to this unit.
A:AnswerLG reps always say they don't use bitumen. They do. They're either uninformed or being dishonest. When it arrives and you see the black baked on stuff all around the outside, that's bitumen. If you're not sure, heat it up with a hair dryer for a moment and you'll smell it (like pavement).
A:AnswerThank you for your interest in the LG Front Control Dishwasher with QuadWash™ and 3rd Rack (LDFN4542W) model. The LG LDFN4542W is a front control dishwasher that uses four spray arms to clean dishes from multiple angles. This helps to ensure that dishes come out sparkling clean on the first wash. You can download its owner's manual through this link for more information: https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-LDFN4542W.ABWESNA. ^Cris
A:AnswerI also was looking for top controls but the front controls aren't a problem. The control panel is situated in such a way that accidentally pushing them probably won't be a problem.
