  • Questionhow much does it weigh ? do you have to use HE detergent ?

    Asked by Monte.

    • Answer As implied in its header, the ENERGY STAR® Certified LG 4.8 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Smart Top Load Washer with EasyUnload® - Alpine White, Model # WT8205CW is a 'High-Efficiency' washer and is designed for use with only HE (High-Efficiency) detergents. HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of the washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE may cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory performance which could result in error codes, cycle failure, and washer damage. Detergents designated as HE-compatible may not provide optimal results. Best Buy's specifications list Product Weight as 130 lbs. for this washer...^Ivan.

  • QuestionI’ve had this machine for two months. It washes well and is very quiet. But I need help with the water level. When I use the deep fill feature to add additional water, it fill the tub to the maximum instead of adding extra water. Please help.

    Asked by Jen.

    • Answer As explained in the note for Deep Fill on page 28 in your owner's manual for the ENERGY STAR® Certified LG 4.8 cu. Ft. Mega Capacity Smart Top Load Washer with 4-Way® Agitator, EasyUnload™ & AI Sensing, Model # 4.8 cu. Ft. Mega Capacity Smart Top Load Washer with 4-Way® Agitator, EasyUnload™ & AI Sensing, Model # WT8205CL, "If the washer reaches its maximum water level, this button will have no effect." Which wash cycle are you using the Depp Fill option with? The note also states that "When you select the Normal cycle and the Deep Fill option, the cycle is changed to the Deep Wash cycle before starting."...^Ivan.

  • QuestionIs there a spin cycle after the wash cycle, before the rinse cycle begins?

    Asked by Bella.

    • Answer Like ALL other LG washers, the LG 4.8 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Smart Top Load Washer with EasyUnload™ - Platinum Black, Model # WT8205CL, as part of its standard operating procedure for high-efficiency top loaders, performs a drain and spin to remove the soapy water after the wash cycle, before it fills with fresh water for the rinse cycle. This intermediate spin removes the majority of the dirty, soapy water to ensure the subsequent rinse cycle is more effective...^Ivan.

  • Questionwhite "stuff", not lint, shows up on my black clothes, no matter the fabric. It is exactly the pattern of the barrel. Why is this??? I have tried and tried to contact LG with no success via text or phone to get a reference number so Best Buy can fix this.

    Asked by Kathee.

    • Answer Hello there. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your inquiry regarding the residue appearing on your garments after using your LG 4.8 Cu. Ft.
