Dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.excellent saves on water and energy no issues with it
I would recommend this to a friendThe dishwasher is great!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a review of Best Buy, not the dishwasher. The dishwasher is great. Best Buy hired a contractor who damaged my home in 2 places during installation. Not only that but they installed it so poorly that when Geek Squad came out and looked at it, they told me "do not use this dishwasher as installed". They scheduled removal of the original and installation of a new dishwasher because somehow that would be quicker than sending someone to correct what had been done wrong. The dishwasher sat in my house unusable for about 3 weeks through the holidays when I needed it the most, before the new one was delivered and installed...correctly this time. I asked them not to send the same contractors that botched it the first time, but they did. Once it was all set, I contacted Best Buy about a "make good" for my inconvenience of not having a dishwasher for 3 weeks and having to take a second day off work for installation. A $65 gift card is what they offered. I told them I should at least get credit for the $250 price of the installation. I spoke with multiple people, all of who claimed it's out of their hands. There's a calculator that they use to determine the make good and it is what it is. That's how Best Buy treats their customers. Send contractors who do a terrible job, leave you with an appliance you can't use for 3 weeks, send the same contractors back to your house, require you to take another day off work, and tell you $65 is all your convenience is worth. Maybe that's why the store is always empty.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great dishwasher. My only complaint is I wish it was a tad quieter and wish the silverware caddy was up front, not all the way in tha back of the machine.
I would recommend this to a friendJust right
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great, reason for 4* is tall glass have to go on bottom due to not enough space on 2 drawer.
I would recommend this to a friendOk dishwasher
||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

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well. Nice having a third rack for extra storage.
I would recommend this to a friendA 3hr Dry time that doesn’t dry
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tired of spending good money on a dishwasher that doesn’t dry. Should it take 3 hrs on the extra dry setting to not dry the dishes? And I had a cup of matcha that came out slightly less dirty than when I put it in. Not worth the money.

Doesn’t dry
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looks great, cleans nice; but never dries the dishes even on overnight long dry cycle. My previous $300 dishwasher was a lot more efficient. Didn’t look as good but I regret upgrading for the looks alone now.

Okay but not top marks
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cleans well but somewhat noisy and bottom rack doesn’t roll smoothly. If I could do it over, I would pay more for the more insulated model.

I would recommend this to a friendGreat dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this dishwasher. The only complaint I would have is that the top rack dividers are not adjustable to make it tight around glasses. Our other one did. This is minor though.

I would recommend this to a friendSo far so good...
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far so good. Everything works as expected, except dry cycle is not as good as my old one, which was 22 years old. This seems to be a common complaint. Only time will tell how well it holds up.
