||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Dishwasher is perfect for my needs. I was limited in choices due to installing hardwood floors without changing cabinets. Fit perfectly. Works great. Love the adjustable racks, ensuring all the dishes fit in.

I would recommend this to a friendNice machine
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the dishwasher installed last week and are very happy with it so far. My only "complaint" would be that the controls are hard to read without bending down very close to them. Appears to be a very well made machine.

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. We also understand your feedback regarding the readability of the front controls. Your feedback is important, and we'd like to assist you further.

Over a year and still happy
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very happy with this dishwasher. I purchased this to replace an old one and this hasn't disappointed.
I would recommend this to a friendDo not purchase this dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very disappointed with this dishwasher for the following reasons: 1. Many if not most dishes come out wet after the wash even after using all available drying options. We have to pull out the racks and let the load air dry (which can take hours) unless we hand dry them. Any plastic items will be very wet after washing. 2. Rack configuration is very inflexible for anything but standard-sized plates, bowls and drinking glasses. There is a big gap between the front and back sections on the bottom rack, which leaves an unused area if you aren’t washing large pots and pans. 4. Unfortunately, we are past the 15 day return date because there were no installation dates available soon after delivery. 4. The plumbers who came to install the dishwasher wanted to charge an additional $150 plus over the installation fee we already paid to BB due to local codes. This may not be BB’s fault, but BB gave us no warning that this could occur.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just purchased about a month ago - so far so good. I like the "songs" it plays for you. Has many good features so still learning but I like what I have seen so far.

Motherboard problem
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have owned the dishwasher model LDFN4542S for less than 2 years, and had to pay LG $343.85 just to come out and look at it. The motherboard malfunctions on many models. LG has been aware of the problem for years, see “Wheeler vs. LG”. Unacceptable. Will not buy this brand again.

Great washer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great washer for the price. Great deal when we bought it!
I would recommend this to a friendA not too happy owner
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does not dry very well. Directions difficult to understand how to use. Install disappointing
No, I would not recommend this to a friendregret my impatience
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Difficult installation. DW needs at least 24" depth for installation. I had 23-3/4" which required cutting out the backing of my custom solid maple cabinets. Included drain hose was so hard to connect to air-gap, that I had to call a plumber. Bottom tray grid is so widely spaced that my square dinner plates rotate during cycle with corners pointing down, stopping rotation off the spray arm. Upper rack items don't always come clean even though I always rinse things off before loading. Ability to download custom cycles only works with android, --no iPhone compatibility. (I wouldn't use this anyway.) Very poorly engineered machine. I only bought this machine because it was the ONLY thing I could find anywhere in white!

I would recommend this to a friendLG dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far, the dishwasher has been excellent. The dishes, glasses, china have been washed and dried with no problems. For silverware, you have to make sure to allow room around them for them to be completely clean.
