    It’s a little loud but shorter wash time. Our old LG washer started to go out so we decided to stick with the LG brand

    STAINING ALL CLOTHES BLACK! PERMANENT DAMAGE

    1. I had my older washing machine for 10+ years, and it was still going strong! I only bought this one to upgrade appliances & because I deserved a new washer. BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER. What I wouldn't do to get my older machine back. 2. This machine is only 3 months old and it's been staining my clothes with black residue. 3. Yes, I run tub clean cycles often as per the manual. 4. Yes, LG made me purchase a tub cleaner and run the cycle 3x back to back to rule out it's not me. 5. I did as I was told, sent pictures of all 3 cycles I ran. 6. Then I did a load of laundry and THE STAINS ARE NOW 1000000% WORSE! DID I MENTION THEY ARE PERMANENT STAINS??? OVER $900 worth of clothes damaged, and they seem to prolong the troubleshooting.

    Wash cycles default to hit and high spin and won't let change. Deep fill and single item loads make my breaker trip. The slanted lid is annoying because you can't sit anything on it to dry without it sliding off.

      Hi, Allison. Thanks for sharing your experience with the LG Washer (WT8400CW) model. We understand how important it is for your appliance to offer flexibility and convenience in everyday use.

      If the wash cycles default to Hot water and High spin and won’t allow changes, one step you can try is resetting the control panel by unplugging the unit for 60 seconds and plugging it back in. This can help clear any temporary glitches. For Deep Fill and single-item loads, we recommend balancing the load with at least one or two additional items to prevent unbalanced spinning, which may cause power surges and trip the breaker. You can find more cycle customization tips and safety guidance here: https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-WT8400CW.AEWETUS. If you’d like further assistance, feel free to email us at [email protected]. We’re here to help. ^Juvy LG

      Hi, Jessica. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the LG Washer (WT8400CW) model. We understand how important it is for your washer to deliver a thorough clean the first time.

      For improved performance, we recommend using the Deep Wash cycle or selecting the Water Plus option to increase water levels, which can help enhance cleaning results in top-load washers without an agitator. Also, make sure loads are evenly distributed and not overloaded, as this allows the impeller design to move clothes more effectively. You can find more helpful tips here: https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-washer-clothing-not-clean-properly--1337626293790. If you’d like further assistance, please send us an email at [email protected] and we’ll be glad to help. ^Juvy LG

    Avoid Or Run Tub Clean Often!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We have had this for a year. About 2 months ago, I started noticing black marks on our lighter items, especially sheets. I contacted LG customer service and was told to do a tub clean. Note, I regularly run tub clean. First tub clean did nothing. Then I was told to buy a specific tub cleaner and to run it three times. It seemed to help for a couple of weeks. Now I have to run tub clean with their recommended cleaner at least once a week. I'm afraid to run a load without running tub cleaner first because I don't want to ruin more items. FYI: the black marks are permanent. So buyer beware!

      Hi, there. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the LG Washer (WT8400CW) model. We understand your concern about dealing with recurring stains—especially when you've been proactive with regular maintenance. We strive to provide reliable, high-quality products that exceed our customer's needs and expectations.

      These black marks on lighter clothes may be caused by residue, mold, or wear on the drum or gasket. While using the Tub Clean cycle is helpful, it shouldn't be necessary every week. We want to investigate the cause of these stains, whether mechanical, water-related, or detergent issues.

      Please message us privately on social media @LGUSSupport, and our team will assist you in finding a solution. You deserve to feel confident using your washer, and we're here to help. ^Juvy LG
