Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this dishwasher as a replacement for my purchase and return of THREE Bosch dishwashers (yes, a total of three Bosh dishwashers in 4 months). After ordering and returning each of the three Bosch dishwashers due to faulty/cracking handles, I went for the high end LG model and haven't had an issue yet. I've had the unit for about just over a month now. The install was good and it cleans well. I love the third/top rack, but every time we empty the dishwasher in our house someone forgets the top rack until we realize a few items are missing and that they were left behind. The dishwasher does a nice job cleaning and it's very quiet, although the flashing blue light that's on when it runs can take some getting used to. My only issue is that the dishwasher does not fit flush with the counter and when the door is open my cabinet doors from the island won't fully open and they wind up knocking against the dishwasher door. Also, the door/bottom rack is very low to the ground which I assume is what makes room for the third rack and, when open, it's easy to trip on it or run into it. All in all this was a good purchase. Maybe this is because I have had such a poor experience with the Bosch units, but I am very happy with the quality of the LG unit and have had no issues with it thus far. If you're looking for a quiet efficient, good looking unit with a few bells and whistles this is a good machine although I do feel it's a bit overpriced.

I read so many reviews it became boring. I agree it is a very quiet unit and has plenty of operating modes and flexibility like so many others. My dislikes or negative concerns of this model seem pretty common in other models and reviews. The operation is simple after reading the manual. I load it, turn it on and set controls for the needs close the door and NEVER open it again until next morning. I don't have the issue with a wet interior, my cabinet and items are dry. The adjustments for setting the tine angles, are a little to sloppy with the "cheap" feeling. I don't care for the straight tines to hold the full size dinner plates, they tend to tip and overlap positions of slightly smaller plates. If they were taller or a closer gap that would help. The top rack is great for many items and has a lots of good use for pot and pan lids plus odd utensils. I believe learning how to properly load this unit is most important! Selecting the correct cycle and drying options is next. I followed and installed this unit completely without any issues for almost two months now. The blinking blue LED is cool! Provides just enough light in my open concept home to walk around without turning a big light on. Thank you & hope you enjoyed my review.

I am so happy with this dishwasher. It can fit a lot of dishes,pots, pans etc. it is very quiet. Definitely satisfied for the price and quality.

This dishwasher is very quiet, but the cycle is longer than my old Kenmore. I like the 3rd rack. My biggest complaint with it is that it doesn't dry the dishes. It doesn't use a heating element to dry the dishes, therefore it is more energy efficient. They suggest using a rinse aid. It does have an extra dry cycle, but that adds another hour to the total time.

On the plus side: very quiet, energy efficient, door top controls, convenient handle, outstanding style, third rack (top), and height adjustable middle rack. On the minus side: seems to leave a film on clear glass dishes (even though a rinse agent is used), long cycle time. Make sure the detergent compartment is not over filled; it will make a mess!

Our last dishwasher (a Maytag) didn't make it to it's three year anniversary. So when we had to replace it we looked for a quality unit. Of all the dishwashers we looked at in our price range, it was clear that this LG unit was designed and built better than all of the others. And after 30 days of use I can attest that it is a quality machine. It does a very good job in cleaning the dishes and it is very quiet. Highly recommended.

I bought this dishwasher because I wanted a top of the line model that was very quite. I would have bought a Bosch but they didn't offer one with a bright black finish. Actually this was the only one I could find that would match our refrigerator and double oven (both are only a few years old and both have a bright black finish. I love this dishwasher and the installation only took about 45 minutes. Best Buy is great.

Cleans very well, couldn't ask it to do any better. Very quiet, we have open kitchen, dining and living room, can not hear it unless standing next to it. When you first open the machine the contents are a bit wet but once the door is open for a few moments they dry out (don't ask me why). We do use a rinse-aid and put it on the 2nd setting. It takes almost 2 hours to do a load, but that's the way energy-efficiency rolls.

Very pleased so far. The dishwasher is very quiet and seems to do a good job on everything with the Normal cycle. Definitely does better with the use of a rinse aid in the dispenser. Still learning how to load it and adjust all the many options for the racks and their height settings. The installer advised not using the Auto cycle if one rinses dishes much before putting them in the dishwasher.

This dishwasher has run quietly and efficiently. Dishes are left very clean

I read a lot of reviews about this washer and was somewhat concerned because some people seemed to hate it. We really like it. It is super quiet which was especially important to my husband. It's so quiet it's hard to tell it's running. It cleans well and I love the flexibility to be able to load many things of different sizes. I highly recommend it.

The pros: quiet and gets dishes clean. Several programs. The cons: dishes do not get dry, even with "extra dry" program. The racks are kind of flimsy and the plates don't always stay upright. I chose this model over a Bosch because it matched my new suite and because BB offered free installation and rebates when you bought a suite. I wish that I had gone with the Bosch, which offers a "no logo" model to match other brands. As a realtor I was taught that appliances should match. As a homeowner I believe that it's better to choose the appliances based on reviews: LG for fridge, Bosch for dishwashers, especially if you're not planning to sell your house soon.

I looked into many reports and comments on dishwashers the main one was it's quiet, OK. What I dislike is the rack systems, angle of tines and the flimsy plastic set up to hold position or lack of! This appears as a pretty common area on some brands and models, non adjustable at all on others I inspected. LG is not stellar in this area, maybe I will just attach a tie wrap to help hold the positions. The slight remaining trapped moisture on some items is minor if you don't open the door before the complete drying cycle has completed helps. Yes, if it spills on the stainless steel inside door surface it does looks "ugly" during unloading, but it does do a great job of cleaning dishware. I have a large open concept home in the woods and the flashing blue LED works great as a security & night lite. Thank you for reading my review.

This is only the second dishwasher that I've owned in my life. The first was ok. Did what it was supposed to do. Nothing great about it. This, the second is so quiet I have to check to make sure it's running. In addition, it holds tons, and my dishes were squeaky clean and dry. Thus far, I'm very pleased with my new dishwasher.

This washer can hold a lot of dishes which is great for a big event. The ability to change the height on the second rack makes it perfect for pots and pans. The third top rack is great for lids to containers and large cooking utensils.

Nice and quiet and does a nice job. I have it hooked up to a water softener and think it could do a better job actually cleaning. There are always leftover bits on the dishes and glasses. Just be prepared to prerinse.

Loveeee it so much. Extremely efficent, and very quiet. I can barely tell that it's running. Wash times are a bit longer than what I'm used to, depending on the options you choose, but the results are amazing. I've had the machine for just over a month now and I have yet to find anything that I don't like about it.

Very quiet dishwasher. It was down to this unit or the Bosch, and this one was a lot cheaper, but with good reviews. Not disappointed by the choice. It is almost silent when running which is a huge change over our old Maytag. The extra top rack for silverware is great and the wash job is far and away the best we've ever had from any dishwasher.

This is the quietest and strongest dishwasher I have ever seen. I love the 3rd rack for silverware, super easy to load and unload. The configurations and space on the main 2 racks allow me to put anything in there, and better yet, everything (pots and pans included) come out spotless and clean.

This is a great dishwasher. I love it. Beautiful to look at and so quiet I double check to see if it is running. While it is not entirely intuitive to load and I have had to try a few different configurations, it still holds a lot and the dishes come out really clean. Two important things to know: 1) if you want your dishes all the way dry you will need to run the extra dry cycle and that means you will lose some energy efficiency; and 2) expect a load of dishes to take a few hours to run. For me this last one was a surprise but not a deal breaker. I just now do my dishes at night and we wake up to a clean load.
