||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this dishwasher in March of 2023 and started having issues with it around February 2024. The second rack kept falling out anytime you tried to push the rack all the way in. We spent the next 6 months going back and forth with Best Buy. Turns out the 2 year protection plan is useless if you're out of their service area (rural Colorado) and they wouldn't do anything past making a couple phone calls. When Best Buy found out that there are no third party service guys in our area either, they shrugged their shoulders and said sorry, your SOL on a $1000 dishwasher. Anyway, after wasting that six months, we went directly to LG who, after multiple phone calls with multiple people, couldn't understand the issue we were having, sent us a whole new rack (without the part that we *actually* needed to fix it) and we ended up buying the part to fix it ourselves. Worked for a couple months and is back to falling out when you close the rack. Half a dishwasher is pretty useless. Won't be buying more LG large appliances. And won't be working strictly with Best Buy for large appliances from here on out either.

Not here quite yet…but soon
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have not got the dishwasher installed yet, but according to all of the reviews we are excited to get it installed and see if it lives up to its reviews!

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After one week of installing the dishwasher, the middle rack would not freely move. Upon attempting to draw out the rack with slight force, the rack's ball bearings began falling into the tub. Not a happy camper. I would not buy, nor recommend, this unit to anyone.

Posted .Hi there. Thank you for sharing your experience with the LG LDTH7972S Dishwasher. We understand your inquiry, and we’re here to support you. The middle rack is designed with ball-bearing glides for smooth operation, and if these components become misaligned or dislodged during use or installation, it can affect movement. We recommend checking that the rack is seated evenly on both tracks and that the stoppers are securely in place.

I would recommend this to a friendNot the best dishwasher
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The dishwasher works fine, but it doesn’t dry the dishes at all. Even with the dry feature, it barely makes a difference. It can be quite noisy, so we added an extra layer of insulation to reduce the noise level.

Posted .Hello there, Stella. Thank you for sharing your experience with the LDTH7972S dishwasher. We understand the drying performance hasn’t met your expectations. While this model includes Dynamic Heat Dry™ for enhanced drying, performance can vary depending on the rinse aid usage, water temperature, and dish placement. We recommend making sure that rinse aid is always filled, as it plays a crucial role in drying, and selecting the Extra Dry or Night Dry option for improved results.
Regarding the noise, we appreciate your effort in adding insulation. The unit is designed for quiet operation, so if the sound seems unusually loud, it may be worth checking that the dishwasher is level and not in contact with surrounding cabinetry.
Please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport so we can provide more tailored support and ensure your dishwasher is performing at its best. We’d love the opportunity to help further.

middle rack is no good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.cleans great but middle rack is awful with weird prongs for holding/arranging dishes. I bot this model for the energy rating but I wish I looked more closely at the configuration of the prongs.
