LG Dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The dishwasher looks very nice installed, and works well. However, it is complicated to operate, and the manual is not very clear.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a little louder than I expected for the price, and it can sometimes leave the dishes smelling like they were not fully cleaned. Otherwise, ok…

Posted .Hello there, ChristinaB. We understand your inquiry about your LG LDFN4542S dishwasher flooding after one year of use—thank you for letting us know. Your experience is important, and we’d like to help you get things running smoothly again.
As a first troubleshooting step, please check that the dishwasher is level front‑to‑back and side‑to‑side using a carpenter’s level; an unlevel installation can cause water to pool and overflow. Next, inspect the float switch located at the bottom of the tub—make sure it moves freely and isn’t obstructed by debris, and confirm the drain hose is installed with a high loop (or air gap) above the flood level rim to prevent backflow.

If you continue to see flooding after these checks, please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport. Our team will gather a few more details and explore all possible solutions, including any service options, to resolve this for you. We appreciate your patience and look forward to helping your LG dishwasher perform as intended —Renzo
Disappointing
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Starting with a salesperson standing over us the whole time and then told us LG is the best. When we got it it took forever to get it hooked up, the racks aren't spaced right so it's hard to load the dishwasher and on extra dry the bottom tray will dry but the other 2 racks are still wet. I really wish we would have stuck with whirlpool.

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You might want to make sure the 3 drawer options will work for you.

I would recommend this to a friendLEMON and LG Won't Refund Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When it works, it's great. It worked well the 1st 3 months. It took a month to get it installed. I've had this dishwasher for 11 months. It's been working less than half of that. Between the initial phone call, the 1st visit, waiting for the ordered part, finding a date to install the part only to try again - order a different part, wait for it, install it - the "repairs" can take 4 weeks to 2.5 months to take place! Give it another 2-3 weeks & it breaks down again! No chance for a return via Best Buy & LG refuses to back up their warrantee either. My suggestion: buy a cheaper dishwasher that works & avoid this one! GOOD LUCK.
