I've owned 2 separate versions of the LG ventless washer/dryer. It really doesn't do well with very bulky items like quilts. Twin maybe, but definitely not our Cal King. I love this machine. You just need to be organized about your sorting and know which load is next, since it can dry half of a washed load. So frequent smaller loads are better. But since you don't have to move it from one box to another, you run a load while at work, run another load while doing dinner. Run another load overnight. It's easy. The one BIG downside is that no one can repair it!! It's YouTube and ordering parts. Even when it was under warranty LG had no one to send. The closest company it could recommend was over 50 miles away and they wouldn't even come if I paid extra for the travel time. You are on your own unless you call LG first and ask WHO repairs it and what their number is. Personally, I'm used to YouTube but I'm not sure I'll do it for the next machine. This kind of machine is very common in Europe, and I used it in an old building in VA where you couldn't punch dryer vents in the walls. It does not make the room overly hot, but the dry cycle takes a little longer. The laundry does not come out wet but there is a moment where it feels damp because it's not baked dry. I just shake it out and it feels normal. Occasionally I have to air dry jeans if I washed them with thin shirts. Try to keep fabric types together. It's MUCH nicer on fabrics!! It's rough to clean dog hair out of, especially around the belt and especially if you have a golden retriever. Sigh. Still, it's a great investment, a good move to save water, electricity, and not pump hot air into a 100 degree yard.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Comforters come with a variety of filler material that makes some more bulky than others. Depending on how bulky the comforter is, the LG 4.5 Cu. Ft. 14-Cycle Smart Wi-Fi Enabled Washer and 12-Cycle Electric Dryer Combo with TurboWash® Technology, Model # WM3998HBA will accommodate most King Size Washers. A capacity of 3.8 cubic feet is generally considered as being large enough to accommodate most King Size comforters. The drin hose and power cord come attached on the unit. Hot and Cold water hoses are not included accessories and will have to be purchased separately. This unit uses a Ventless Condensing Drying system and cannot be vented to the outside. Depending on the size of the room and how well ventilated it is that you have the unit installed in, you may or may not feel any difference in temperature while using the unit...^IFV
