A:AnswerThere is a contact on the sidekick that the actuator of the washing machine has to hit to depress the contact. Due to this the sidekick cannot be used as a standalone washing machine. ^CP
A:AnswerLG SideKick model WD100CB is a pedestal, https://www.lg.com/us/washers/lg-WD100CB. It does not sit inside another pedestal and it is sold separately from the washer.
A:AnswerAll Electric dryers and Electric Ranges are sold without power cords. The reason for this is the government added a new safety code in the 1980's making the 220 line grounded at the outlet. Older homes have 3 prong outlets ... newer homes have 4 prong outlets. Just count the holes of the outlet.
You can go to any home improvement store and purchase the proper cord according to your outlet. It's very simple to change a cord but is crucial you hook the proper wires to the correct pins on the unit! *Note Range and Dryer cords are different although they look very similar! Just go buy a new cord!
A:AnswerI really doubt it. It's not an attractive piece unless stacked under and it's the size of the washer. It's obviously very short, but still the full size of the washer.
It also only does very small loads.
A:AnswerWhile there will be some interchangeability in washer and dryer models across the same brand, you will not be able to stack laundry units from two different brands. ^Daphane

A:AnswerIf you hear a sloshing sound, but do not see water in the washing tub, then there is no issue. They put a balance ring beneath the tub to balance the load. This is mentioned in the manual for the sidekick washer.
