  • QuestionCan you download a "Hand Wash" cycle for this unit?

    Asked by Question.

    • Answer The ENERGY STAR® Certified LG 5.2 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Stackable Smart Front Load Washer with Steam and TurboWash™ - Black Steel, Model # WM8900HBA, has a 'Delicates' cycle so a 'Hand-Wash' cycle is not available as a downloadable cycle for this model. The Delicate cycle and Hand Wash cycle are both designed to clean delicate fabrics, but they differ in several key aspects. The Delicate cycle uses gentle agitation and a slightly faster spin, while the Hand Wash cycle mimics hand washing with slower or no spin...^Ivan.

  • QuestionCan you use the bottom pedestal if you stack the washer and dryer? I assume the washer goes on bottom?

    Asked by Kat.

    • Answer Hello there. Thank you for reaching out and for your interest in the LG 5.2 cu. ft. High-Efficiency Stackable Smart Front-Load Washer with Steam and TurboWash (Model #WM8900HBA). We understand your question about stacking and pedestal use. Yes, the washer goes on the bottom when stacking the washer and dryer. However, the bottom pedestal cannot be used when the washer and dryer are stacked, as the stacking kit is designed to secure the units directly together for safety.

  • Questionhow do I access and clean the filter? Not the Lint filter!

    Asked by Bill.

    • Answer Hello, Bill. To access and clean the filter on your LG WM8900HBA washer, first, make sure the unit is empty, turned off, and drained of any visible water in the tub. Grab a shallow pan and have it ready by placing it near the access panel to collect the water. Open and remove the access panel on the lower front left by pulling the tab downward and out, revealing the drain hose and drain pump filter. There will be a large stopper and a residual water hose. For detailed instructions on the next steps, please refer to this link: https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-washer-how-to-clean-the-drain-pump-filter--20150206838321.

  • QuestionWhat is the max length for both incoming water as well as waster water hoses?

    Asked by mRaymond.

    • Answer Hot and cold water inlet hoses are NOT included with the Energy Star® Certified LG - 5.2 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Stackable Smart Front Load Washer with Steam and TurboWash™ - Black Steel, Model # WM8900HBA, and will need to be purchased separately. Washing machine hot and cold water inlet hoses typically range from 4 to 12 feet in length, with 4, 5, and 6 feet being the most commonly available sizes. The 6-foot length is generally the recommended choice as it allows you to easily pull the machine out for cleaning or maintenance without straining the lines. The drain hose, if that is what you are referring to as the "waster water hose" is approximately 60 to 70 inches (about 5 to 6 feet) long. Keep in mind that the end of the drain hose must be positioned between 29 and 96 inches above the floor to allow the unit to drain properly and prevent siphoning...^Ivan.

  • QuestionIs this washer compatible with pedestal WDP5V

    Asked by Jldu.

    • Answer Hello, Jldu! Thank you for sharing your question to us about the LG Washer (WM8900HBA). No, the WDP5V laundry pedestal is not compatible with this washer. The correct pedestal is the WDP5B, which matches the 29‑inch width of the WM8900HBA and ensures proper stability. Choosing the right pedestal not only secures installation but also provides convenient storage space for laundry supplies.

  • QuestionIs it compatible with gas?

    Asked by Acavs.

    • Answer Hi, Acavs! Thank you for sharing your question to us about the LG Washer (WM8900HBA). No, the WM8900HBA is an electric washing machine, so it is not compatible with gas in any way. It operates solely on a standard electrical connection. If you’re looking for a gas‑compatible dryer to pair with it, the matching model is the LG Dryer (DLGX8901B). This unit offers gas drying performance while maintaining the same premium design and capacity as the washer.

  • QuestionDoes this LG washer have a add more water option?

    Asked by DJ.

    • Answer Hi, DJ. Thank you for your interest in the LG Washer (WM8900HBA) model. About your question on whether it has an option to add more water... This unit is a high-efficiency front-load washer designed to use less water for optimal cleaning performance. While there isn't a "deep fill" button like on some top-load models, the machine uses a load-sensing system to determine the appropriate water level. Suppose you desire a higher water level for a specific load. In that case, a helpful troubleshooting step is to select the "Towels" or "Bedding" cycles, as these cycles are pre-programmed to use more water for better saturation and cleaning. For more information about the product, you may visit https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-wm8900hba-front-load-washer.

  • QuestionWill a 27" pedastal work or do I need a 29" pedastal for the LG - 5.2 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Stackable Smart Front Load Washer with Steam and TurboWash - Black Steel?

    Asked by Jess.

    • Answer Hello there, Jess. We understand your inquiry about the LG 5.2 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Stackable Front-Load Washer (Model WM8900HBA) and the correct pedestal size. Because this washer is 29 inches wide, you’ll need a 29-inch pedestal—specifically LG Pedestal Model WD200CB—rather than a 27-inch unit. Troubleshooting Tip: When installing the pedestal, first adjust the washer’s leveling legs so the cabinet sits perfectly level. This ensures the pedestal aligns flush without gaps and prevents any rocking once stacked. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lg-5-2-cu-ft-high-efficiency-stackable-smart-front-load-washer-with-steam-and-turbowash-black-steel/6492271.p?skuId=6492271 For any further assistance or to schedule professional installation, please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport and our team will be more than happy to assist you.
