Looks great, and has a rinse cycle
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was pleased with the amount of dishes this dishwasher can hold and the many different ways dishes, pots and pans can be arranged inside. Flatware can be put on the top rack and the flatware holder can be removed if more room is needed. I particularly like the rinse cycle, which uses much less water than rinsing by hand as well as preventing the food from drying on the dishes. The normal wash cycle is 2 1/2 hrs, which I thought was rather long, but the machine is very quiet.

Just installed.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just installed and have run one cycle. There are a multitude of cleaning and drying options, it’s quiet and does an excellent job. It’s a straight forward installation if you’re mechanically inclined and if you follow the instructions you’ll have no issues. We’re empty nesters so it will see limited use and I’m hoping to get 10 to 15 years of operation like the previous dishwasher…Time will tell.

Just right
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beautiful dishwasher. Cleans well. Love the upper rack for silverware, and the adjustable middle rack for taller glasses. Stainless steel interior is nice. It has the controls on the front, instead of on the top of the door, so if I lean against it, it changes the settings. You can get them on the top of the door, if this might be a problem for you.

10 yr motor warranty worthless
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Disappointed. At about 2.5 years the dishwasher started to make a horrible noise and began leaking. And while the motor has a 10 year warranty it's $349 to have a LG technician repair. And while it's not as expensive as a new dishwasher it's still about 60% of the original cost. While I did like the dishwasher, especially the top silverware rack, I would not recommend it to my friends or family

Posted .Hi, Tonka. Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We understand your concern about the LG Dishwasher (LDFN4542B) model, especially with the noise and leaking issue after 2.5 years of use. We really aim to provide reliable, high-quality products that meet our customers' needs and expectations.
To help you out, we suggest checking the door seal and making sure there aren’t any blockages or debris causing the leak. Sometimes, a worn-out seal can lead to water leakage and those odd noises. You might also want to run a cleaning cycle to see if that helps with the noise issue since built-up debris inside the dishwasher can create some strange sounds. If you need more assistance, feel free to check out this link: https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-dishwasher-troubleshooting-leaking-issues--1390840766052.
We know that repair costs can feel like a lot sometimes. Just drop us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and we’d love to help you out by looking into your situation and finding the best solution for you.
We’re here to make sure you’re happy with your LG appliance! ^Juvy

Broke after warranty expired (2 years)
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this in November 2022 and warranty expired in November 2024. In May 2025 the motor bearing went out and the pump started having issues. If you buy this, get Best Buy Protection and extend it before the 2 years is up. We ran it 5 days a week on the longer cycle; we have 5 people in our household and so we have a full sink of dishes each day. It does not dry very well, and we routinely had to air dry the dishes or hand dry. Not sure if it was setup right but there wasnt a little front exhaust port like the Deathstar. It is very quiet though and the top rack does actually clean. I'd say the 3rd rack is not needed and you can get that space back. My sister had a GE that lasted 12 years and counting. So I am going with that for my next dishwasher.

LG dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dishwasher is wonderful. After my dishwasher survived for 16 years, I thought it was fine. It was very quiet and served all the purposes till it broke. However, this new model with the top rack for the plastic that otherwise can’t be washed in the dishwasher the no rinse and other options are helpful. It’s fairly quiet. Not the quietest on the market but still good.

Easy to operate and quiet
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have only had this dishwasher a very short time, but so far, I am very impressed with it. It cleans well and is easy to operate, even for me and my wife, as we both have very bad eyesight. Once the cycle is set, press the power button and start and you are ready to go. W are very proud of it.

Does the job
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not too loud, easy to adjust shelves. 3rd rack is a great feature. Doesn’t have heating element for drying but the overnight dry does a decent job. Make sure to follow instructions on routing drain and feed lines down through same bottom hole.

Great dishwasher.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great dishwasher, very quiet and gets dishes clean. Only issue is sometimes the middle rack doesn’t slide into place properly without wiggling around to get door to shut.

Decent, loud dishwasher
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is loud when it operates and it took us a few tries to figure out which of the modes would dry the dishes. It does take a long time to wash/dry but it works.

Great washer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Install is very easy. The connections are at the front bottom. Additionally the rear leveler knob is easily accessible from the front. The unit is super quiet, honestly the most noise is from the water hose when filling. The only complaint is that water still sits on cups even when using the full dry cycle.
