LG is better than GE
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this item to replace a cheaper GE model where the control boards failed. It is nicer since the inside is all stainless. The added 3rd rack at the top was nice in theory but it causes condensation to drip down on the dishes even after an extra dry and night dry cycle. This model’s best practice would be to run then immediately unload when finished the dry cycle.

Simple, Quiet and Gets The Job Done
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our old dishwasher died and we decided to go with LG because our LG washer and dryer have been stellar. So far, this dishwasher is following suit, It cleans the dishes, is very quiet and is easy to use. It even has a 'feature' where you can connect it to an app on your phone to control it more precisely or to troubleshoot any problem with it.

Excellent Dishwasher for the Price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have been using this Dishwasher now for almost a month. Upon reading the instructions it told us not to rinse the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher, something we have always done. So we followed the directions and to our surprise the dishes came out clean and sparkling. In addition, we have enjoyed how quiet it is. The install was easy and so far we are enjoying it. The last dishwasher that we had placed the controls on the top of the door. This one is on the front of the door which we prefer. Last thing worth mentioning is the finish on the front is easy to keep clean which is a definite plus!

Good value for the money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quite. Nixe looking. I unfortunately find the lower rack too low. (Not good with my bad back.) Also, the silverware holder would be more beneficial for me on the left side of the lower rack. That way I'd have better light for loading especially silverware, since each piece needs to be placed in one of the designated holes.

It has known moisture issues that LG fails to correct. DO NOT BUY. I understand there are a lot of good reviews, but those are by bots. DO NOT BUY! Trying to save you a headache and money. I will never buy this again.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from LG Digital Customer Care
Posted .Hi, Eric. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG Dishwasher (LDFN4542S) model. We understand how important it is for your appliance to remain reliable beyond the warranty period.
For this model, one helpful step to reduce moisture buildup is to use the Extra Dry or Night Dry options. These settings extend drying time and improve air circulation, which can help minimize condensation inside the tub. Regularly cleaning the air vent and filter also supports better drying performance. For more help, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-dishwasher-maintenance--1433962981524. If you’d like us to assist further with service or troubleshooting, please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com with your product details so we can help coordinate support. We're always here to help. ^Juvy

this unit does not dry well
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.washes fine, many wash features and settings, downloaded programs, turbo wash which is much quicker with less time required, dishes come out clean and spot free, however the unit does not have a heating element for the dry cycles and it dries by condensation fanning taking several hours and leaves much condensation and wet dishes. the unit does not dry well.

Great dishwasher at a great price. Highly recommen
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent dishwasher at a price point less than GE, Whirlpool and other brands. I've had a Bosch dishwasher at more than twice the price that wasn't this good. The dishes come out spotless and dry. If I had one criticism it would be that when the water drains, its a bit loud, but I can live with that since its short portion of the cycle and works so well otherwise. I like the configuration of the inside, including the top slide out rack for knives and other items. I much prefer having the controls in view for ease of use and never liked the handle sticking out on my old one and on most models. This is perfect

Best dishwasher EVER!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dishwasher is silent while running, until it’s complete. At that point a musical announcement comes from the dishwasher to announce END! There is a top shelf that slides out. It’s approximately an inch deep! I use it for knives that I don’t want damaged, plastic Tervis lids, plastic spoons and other things that need extra care. Stainless steal interior for more heat and silence while running!

Adequate, Quiet
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: Looks good. Sleek, clean. Cons: Maybe I missed this in the instructions but after the first wash, the unit stunk like rotting hot food. We ALWAYS clean all items before placing in unit, ALWAYS. After a few uses, it still stunk badly so I started adding citric acid crystals to the pods and it still stunk, and there were no food particles or residue in the filter. We finally bought a dishwasher cleaner and ran per instructions. No more stink. Like I said, maybe I missed the instruction that said to run a dishwasher cleaner before your first wash. We used to have to leave the door ajar to air it out but no more. Also, the unit looks roomy but it’s only adequate. The wire used for the racks are spaced too far apart and if you’re not careful, smallish things could easily fall through. The middle shelf is not deep enough for wine glasses or taller items. They could have given more space to the middle rack from the bottom rack. The cycle times are pretty long too. But, it does the job, and it’s pretty quite. Had I first run a dishwasher cleaner I would not have had the stink problem and would have given this unit a 4-star rating, though I would still like more room on the middle shelf which is why I gave it a 3-star rating, but I would recommend.
