    Its a good dishwasher. A little bit noisy than my previous one. The only thing is the top row is very small and sometimes it does not clean the top rack items properly.

    I would not purchase this product again. It has some features such as the third tray (which was not worth it for me.) and the ease of rolling the racks, but that is it. Having said that I don’t think any dishwashers in this price range are that different. The energy saver models do not clean like the old models. It’s plastic and I wonder if it’ll make five years.

      Hello there, Joett. We understand your inquiry and appreciate you sharing your thoughts about the LDFN4542B. While features like the third rack and easy-rolling racks can be convenient, we hear you that they may not feel worth it if the cleaning performance doesn’t meet your expectations. We want to help you get the most from your dishwasher and address any concerns about longevity as well.

      Troubleshooting Tip for Improved Cleaning:
      Many modern energy-saving dishwashers use lower-flow spray arms and reduced-water cycles to conserve resources, which can feel different compared to older, higher-water models. To ensure your dishes come out thoroughly clean, try these steps:

      Load Strategically: Place larger items—pots, pans, and casserole dishes—on the bottom rack, tilted slightly so they don’t block the spray arms. Ensure that nothing obstructs the rotation of the upper spray arms; even a single utensil or plate leaning at the wrong angle can prevent water from reaching all items.

      Check and Clean Spray Arms: Periodically remove the upper and lower spray arms and rinse them under warm water. Small food particles can lodge in the spray-arm holes, reducing water coverage. A toothpick or small brush can clear those tiny nozzles so water jets spray forcefully.

      Use the Right Cycle and Detergent: For particularly soiled loads, select “Heavy” or “Pots & Pans” rather than a quick “Energy Saver” cycle. Heavy cycles use longer wash times and higher wash-pump pressure to tackle stuck-on food. Additionally, make sure you’re using a high-quality dishwasher detergent that’s compatible with hard or soft water in your area; using a rinse aid can also improve drying and prevent spotting.

      Reassurance on Durability:
      The LDFN4542B’s interior tub is crafted from durable nylon-reinforced material designed to resist dents and high heat. While it may look different than stainless steel, it’s engineered to provide long-lasting performance. To help your dishwasher last beyond five years, keep the filter assembly clean (remove and rinse it at least once a month) and periodically examine door seals and gaskets for any wear or residue. A quick wipe-down after each cycle can prevent buildup that stresses hinges and seals over time.

      We know it can be frustrating if a new dishwasher doesn't feel like an upgrade. If you’d like to explore additional cleaning techniques, troubleshoot any specific cycles, or discuss warranty and maintenance options, please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport. Our team will be more than happy to walk through any steps or recommendations tailored to your kitchen setup.

    Omar and his partner did an amazing job bringing in and installing our dishwasher. He even went above and beyond and cut and added our new flooring underneath (the flooring people did not remove the dishwasher when installing, it was just the subfloor).

    The dishwasher is great however my experience with Best Buy was terrible if you plan to install on your own or with a real professional it’s worth it. Probably better to get it from somewhere else.

    Good dishwasher with low sound, however I’m not a fan of the front panel buttons. My dishwasher is placed under my kitchen island where I do a lot food prep, cake decorating, and rolling dough. My body will sometimes press up against the dishwasher, especially when rolling dough or fondant for my cakes, and the start button will constantly beep and turn on and off. Tried placing a rag or tape in front of the dishwasher and any light touch will still cause it to turn on and off and beep/play music constantly. Next time I will get the top panel button model.

    Poor interior design

    It took 2 months to receive the dishwasher because we wanted a black stainless steel. However, not happy with how it is arranged inside - it is quite awkward on all 3 levels. The top rack is so close to the top of the machine inside you can barely get any large serving utensils (spoons, etc) on the tray. The large knives do not fit well in the slots. On the 2nd level - the design does not work that well for placing glasses and cups - some rows are very narrow and glasses do not fit inside. On the bottom rack - worse yet - the rows are too wide - and will not hold bowls properly. They did not allow along the outer side a wider area to place wider things. I luckily saved the silverware holder from my old Maytag as this one was so badly designed that you wouldn't be able to put hardly anything in the middle compartment due to the handle blocking everything - plus the little slots for the silverware were too small for most of my silverwear. Over all a very poor design that you wouldn't be aware of until you start to load the dishes. So far it cleans okay - although that top rack does not clean very well -

    Very sleek and extremely quiet. There is no heating element inside the dishwasher, but as long as a drying agent/rinse aid is used and the door remains shut until the cycle is completely done, the dishes are dry and spotless. It's a great dishwasher!

    LG Dishwasher Died after 17 Months! DO NOT BUY LG!

    DO NOT BUY LG DISHWASHERS! This expensive dishwasher died after 17 months. The display lights began flickering and then going crazy. I shut off the circuit breaker and turned it back on after an hour. The light display was out of control and all lights just flickered endlessly. Opened and closed the door and it stopped. Now the display still has problems, it refuses to complete washing cycles, it doesn't drain the water from the bottom of the machine, so it is absolutely useless. It never dried well. Believe all of the negative LG dishwasher reviews that are all over the internet. LG makes the worst dishwashers of all manufacturers. We've owned GE, Maytag, and most of the major manufacturers. Sales and service repair folks will admit the average lifespan is 6-7 years with these new dishwashers, and that's what we've experienced, except for LG.

    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.
