“Does this washer vent after the cycle is over to prevent the inside from getting mildew? I prop my current washer open after I finish each load for it to dry out, but I've seen commercials where the washers now have vents to do the same thing.”

The ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 5.2 Cu. Ft. 14-Cycle Front-Loading Washer with Steam - Graphite Steel, Model # WM8100HVA does not vent after a cycle ends. IT features a Magnetic Door Plunger which safely and conveniently secures the door slightly ajar to promote air circulation and allow the interior of the machine to dry. To use this feature, after the load has been removed, do not close the door completely. When the magnetic door plunger comes into contact with the metal washer cabinet, it will secure the door slightly open allowing the interior of the washer to dry...^IFV
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No such vent I notice on mine. We too simply leave our door open after a wash for a while before closing it again.I believe there are also after market cleaners you can use to run a cycle that will prevent, cleanse, and disinfect washers of mildew as well.
