Filter
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have to clean the filter before every wash or it will not complete the cycle and leave water at the bottom of the dishwasher. This is one of the worst dishwasher that we have purchased.

Posted .Hi, there. Thanks for sharing your experience with your LG Dishwasher (LDFN4542S) model.We understand the importance of your dishwasher operating smoothly without frequent maintenance. Our goal is to provide reliable, high-quality products that meet customer needs. While it's normal to occasionally clean the filter, doing so before every wash is unusual. A useful tip is to check for buildup in the sump area below the filter, as this can affect drainage and cycle completion. For more assistance, visit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vH9suWjA76A.
We'd love to help resolve any issues with your unit. Please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and our team will gladly assist you. ^Juvy

I would recommend this to a friendInstallation Embezzlement & Fraud Targeting Women
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have called multiple times and sadly, you are not able to speak to staff directly at your local Best Buy about the people they have whom install the dishwasher. I have also been into the store personally multiple times to try and speak with the General Manager or whomever can address this epic problem. I was told that the General Manager whom oversees 4 Best Buy stores would call me directly. When the three men came to install the Dishwasher, I was at work so my girlfriend and her two young daughters were at my house for install. The men who were there, aggressively told her that she had to pay them 80.00 cash to complete the installation after taking out the old dishwasher. She called me and was incredibly nervous and uncomfortable. Being that it has her and her daughters, I told her that it wasn’t worth risking their safety with us both knowing they were committing fraud, so I told her to pay them, but to write a check to get them out of the house. He took a check which was made out to the “magical electrician directly that had to be called, yet he was in the vehicle outside the entire time”. They took the check, finished the install and left the premises. They cashed the check. I have a copy of the check which I obviously can’t post a picture of online, then went to Best Buy multiple times and was never followed up with. Its sad because is she was assaulted or killed, it would be on the news. At this point, I feel like contacting WECT is the direction to go so this doesn’t happen to someone else. This world is changing and if I were home, it wouldn’t have happened. Embezzlement and fraud should be taken seriously as should the safety of the customers purchasing and having products installed. The employees I spoke with didn’t act surprised at the least bit which is another issue in itself. I’d beware about installation services until Beat Buy truly addresses this situation before someone does get assaulted , Robbed or worse. It's a sad situation so many are put in and worse they won’t do anything about it.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not happy with this dishwasher so far... It looks very nice and matches our other LG Black stainless appliances but it doesn't clean very well and it does Not dry our dishes. We pre rinse everything before we wash it so a basic dishwasher usually does fine. This one does not.

Posted .Hello there, LouisD. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your inquiry regarding your LG Dishwasher model LDFN4542D not drying dishes properly. For optimal drying performance, using rinse aid is essential—please check if the rinse aid indicator is blinking and refill if needed. We also recommend selecting the “Extra Dry” or “Night Dry” option if available on your unit. Additionally, after the cycle finishes, try slightly opening the door to let steam escape and help prevent moisture from settling back onto your dishes. If you’re using an all-in-one detergent, consider switching to separate detergent and rinse aid for better results.
