Posted .Hi, Brandee. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG Dishwasher (LDFN4542D) model. We understand your concern about facing a motherboard replacement in under three years of use. We strive to provide high-quality products that exceed our customer's needs and expectations.
In some cases, power surges or fluctuations can impact the control board. To help protect the new board moving forward, we recommend ensuring the unit is connected to a properly grounded outlet and consider using a surge protector designed for large appliances. If you ever see any unresponsive controls or error codes again, turning off the circuit breaker to the unit for 60 seconds can help reset the control system.
We’d like to keep supporting you and ensure your unit stays in great shape. If you have any additional questions or run into issues in the future, don’t hesitate to reach out via private message on social media @LGUSSupport. We’re always here to help. ^Juvy

Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent experience, will recommend to everyone if you need a new dishwasher
I would recommend this to a friendI was expecting much better
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.-Followed all the directions explicitly and tried different cycles. Glasses still come out dull. I realize that some of that is due to hard water, over time, but these were new glasses. -The rinse-aid has to be added to every wash, which is terribly inconvenient....this is the only DW we've had that didn't allow multiple washes from one fill. - Dinner plates in bottom prongs v-e-r-y easily, fall forward to the center hitting the plate in front of it. - a mixing bowl came out with what little corned beef hash was left inside, dried-on the inside after the wash/dry. - All in all, sadly disappointing.

A Dishwasher That Doesn't Dry Dishes
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Horrible dishwasher - I have used it less than ten times and it DOES NOT dry the dishes whatsoever. The machine is also extremely loud when washing. Employee that sold to me emphasized how it was a high quality machine compared to others. Should have gone with a Maytag, Bosch, or GE for this type of machine.

I would recommend this to a friendNot the best...
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We've had this dishwasher for about a year now, It seems to clean pretty well, but the time display only half works and the dishes are soaking wet many hours after the cycle ends. If I had it to do over, I'd buy a different brand.

Posted .Hi, Keith. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re glad to hear that your LG Dishwasher (LDFN4542S) model is meeting your cleaning expectations, but we understand your concerns about the time display and drying performance. We strive to provide reliable, high-quality products that exceed our customer's needs and expectations. For the drying issue, we recommend enabling the Extra Dry and Night Dry options if available. These features can significantly improve drying performance. Additionally, using a rinse aid can help reduce water spots and improve drying efficiency. For guidance, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-dishwasher-not-drying-properly--20150621962758.

LG Dishwasher
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great product. It works well and is so quiet.
I would recommend this to a friendOkay, but a little over priced for the size.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to install, however much smaller interior than I expected. The manual has suggestions on how to load the machine but their options are really not to practical in a real world setting.
