I would recommend this to a friendVery disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had this machine for a few weeks and I am so upset at its awful performance. The dishes do not come out clean…ever. I always rinse them thoroughly and they never have dried food or funk. BUT they always come out just as dirty as they went in. I’ve used every single setting and the hottest water possible but it just sucks. Also not having a drying feature is awful. There’s no heating element so you just wait and wait and wait and the dishes never dry unless you open the door and put a fan on it. For the price, this is a piece of garbage.

||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am happy with the dishwasher as it is simple and not loud. The display that indicates the time was damaged from day one. Unfortunately i thought that it was normal until i saw the same dishwasher at an airbnb.

New, but not working after install.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Dishwasher was installed not working. 1E code was showing up when trying to run the cycle. Installers came back out and said it may be a possible bad pump..
I would recommend this to a friendBetter than expected

I would recommend this to a friendDo not buy
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing has had issue after issue. 7 months after purchase it breaks and takes nearly a month before it is repaired. 11 months after it does the same thing. Same thing is broken. Stay away from this product. Probably my last Lg product purchase.

Posted .Hi there, JohnW. Thank you for sharing your experience with the LG LDFN4542S Front Control Dishwasher. We understand your situation and truly appreciate you taking the time to provide your feedback. Our goal is to ensure every product meets your expectations, and we're here to support you.
If your dishwasher is repeatedly experiencing the same issue, we recommend performing a control panel reset by turning off the unit at the circuit breaker for about 10 minutes, then powering it back on. This can sometimes clear error states or control glitches that may be recurring. Additionally, ensure the inlet water valve is not clogged and that the dishwasher is draining properly—blockages can lead to operational failures that appear similar.

Not the best
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The app says its not compatible when it's supposed to work with this dishwasher and it doesn't we cant get the dishes to dry
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice and modern. Washers the dishes very well.
I would recommend this to a friendGE/LG Not Compatible
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a GE dishwasher and apparently the connection needed to be updated in order to use this LG dishwasher. Not only additional $160 was charged to install the necessary outlet, the dishwasher sticks out about 1/2-inch out of the counter depth because the outlet sticks out of the wall. Performance is good. Overall, if I were informed of the connection issue at the time of purchase especially since we spent over an hour on the floor at the store getting help to pick out the type we liked, I would have purchased a similar product offered by GE instead.

New Dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice dishwasher, goes great with my newly remodeled kitchen.
I would recommend this to a friendDoes not dry!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit does not dry the dishes at all even on extra dry. We purchased it and thought it was faulty so called and had it exchanged. They brought the new one we hooked it up and had the same issue. It still wouldn’t dry. Other than that it washes good but I figured I’d warn others before buying. I didn’t feel like going through the haste of swapping the unit again so I just kept the 2nd one they sent.

Poor basket design
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't like the design of the middle basket. The prongs are pointed sideways, makes for difficult loading.
