Unhappy
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I exchanged the initail dishwasher for another one. The 2nd one is still doing the same thing. The dishwasher is not drying the interior of the dishwasher properly. The door remains wet with condensation and the interior does not completely dry. I have to wipe areas my self with a towel or leave the door partially open until it dries. The items washed dries.

Posted .We certainly understand why you're upset, It is very distressing when things don't work as we desire for them too. We would like to suggest if you haven't already tried using a rise aid, You can purchase at just about any retailer. We have also included a helpful video with how to use rinse aid with your LG Appliance. Have a nice day. Should this not fix things please contact our Customer Service at 800-243-0000. We'll be on deck with the suds patrol. ~Tanisha
Nice display and overnight dry
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The tub feels and sounds a little more plasticky than stainless steel, but perhaps it's just a very thin layer of stainless over plastic. The display is nice, and I like that it has an overnight dry venting feature for when we run it right before bed.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall good dishwasher. 3rd rack seemed like a good idea in theory, but ultimately isn't super useful in my opinion

GL dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very quiet, does not dry plastic containers, trays are made mainly for plates and very limited space for drinking glasses therefore very difficult to load.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome! It's nice looking but it also works beautifully. My favorite feature is the digital display of the time left during a wash. I love knowing how much time is left.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far good ! The only problem if you lean against the dishwasher, you can easily shut it off. I wish that I bought a dishwasher with the control buttons on top, instead of the front.

Posted .Hi there, GregoryT. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your inquiry regarding the drying process and the visibility of the controls on your LG - 24" Front Control Built-In Tub Dishwasher.
We understand that you have questions about the heating unit for drying. To help improve drying performance, we recommend ensuring that the rinse aid dispenser is filled, as this model relies on a condensation drying system combined with rinse aid to shed water effectively.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love our new LG dishwasher, and love the space. The middle rack moves up and down to accommodate pots in bottom rack or to make room in the middle rack.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The touch screen is sorta hard to use you can’t use the energy effectively with using heat to dry the dishes. And if you don’t empty the dishwasher when it’s done. Ya have to dry by hand. And you have to take them Out soon. Or they start stinking. So ya have to re wash.

Posted .Hi, Tricia. Thanks for sharing your experience with the LG Dishwasher LDFN4542S. We appreciate your insights — it’s clear you’re trying to make the most of your dishwasher’s features, and we understand how important it is for the drying cycle and touchscreen to work smoothly. To help improve drying performance, we recommend activating the Extra Dry and High Temp options before starting a cycle. These settings enhance heat drying and reduce moisture left on dishes. Also, opening the door slightly after the cycle finishes can help release steam and prevent odors from building up if you’re not able to unload right away. You can find more tips on optimizing your dishwasher’s performance here: https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/not-drying-dishwasher--20150933408322. If you’d like further assistance, feel free to send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We're here to help. ^Juvy
Incompetent installers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Dishwasher works really well supposed to get free insulation and then it ended up costing an extra $650 because the installers didn’t have the knowledge on how to do the work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend2 problems
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The function buttons are impossible to read: print too small, not lit up, and too many (I don't need that many choices). After cleaning cycle ends, there is heavy condensation on the inside of the door, even days later. Will contact BB to find out what to do.
