    This is by far the absolute worst dishwasher I have ever owned. I owned several Kenmore elite dishwasher's and a Maytag, this hung of garbage does not come close to any of my past purchases and cost the absolute most and I had to hand wash my dishes every night! After less than 18 months I am going to buy a Bosch. I pray it's more effective than this pile of tin!

      Hi, there. We truly appreciate your feedback on the LG Dishwasher (LDTH7972D) model and understand your concern about experiencing issues with your unit, especially given your past experiences with other brands. We strive to provide reliable, high-quality products that exceed our customer's needs and expectations. If your dishes aren’t coming out clean, here are a few steps that may help: Ensure proper loading. Avoid blocking spray arms and keep dishes spaced for optimal water flow. Use rinse aid. This helps with drying and prevents residue buildup. Check the water temperature. The best results come from hot water (120°F or higher); running the sink until hot before starting the cycle can help. Select the correct cycle. Heavy or Turbo cycles provide extra cleaning power for tougher loads. For more help, you may visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-dishwasher-not-cleaning--20151094745547.

      Please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and we’d be happy to explore possible solutions for you. Your feedback is important to us. ^Juvy LG

    Do not buy this. It starts leaking after a few uses. We got a 2nd one hoping that it was just the one that was faulty but the same issue happened. It leaks water out of the top of the door that rolls down the sides onto the floor. You can catch the water in bowls on the floor and still use if for a few more days. Then it starts showing error codes and is totally unusable. Do not waste your money on this dishwasher.

      Hi, Brad. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your concern about the water leakage issue and error codes on your LG Dishwasher (LDTH7972S) model. We strive to provide reliable, high-quality products that exceed our customer's needs and expectations.

      As a troubleshooting step, we recommend checking the door seal and ensuring it is intact, as a damaged or misaligned seal can cause water leakage. If the door seal appears to be fine, there may be an issue with the door latch or the dishwasher’s internal components. Since the issue persisted even with a replacement unit, it’s possible that a technician visit is necessary to properly diagnose and resolve the problem. For additional help, you may visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-dishwasher-troubleshooting-leaking-issues--1390840766052.

    I'm moderately satisfied with this LG dishwasher. It is a bit louder than my last dishwasher from another brand. Also, the racks have odd configurations and it makes loading the dishes a bit challenging. On the pkus side it cleans very well. I also love the LED light that turns on when the door opens. Doesn't dry well though.

      Hi, Joel. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG Dishwasher (LDTH7972S) model. We appreciate the details you’ve provided, and understand how important it is for your appliance to work reliably right from the start.

      For this model, one helpful step is to check the drain filter and spray arms to ensure they are free of debris or blockages. A clogged filter or obstructed spray arm can sometimes cause the dishwasher to stop functioning properly in its first cycles. Running the Smart Diagnosis feature through the LG ThinQ app can also provide error codes that help identify the issue more quickly. For more help, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-LDTH7972S.ASSESNA. If the unit continues to malfunction after these steps, please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com so we can assist you further. ^Juvy LG

    LOUD and doesn’t dry dishes effectively. I write this as I sit 25 feet away from this LG dishwasher and listen to it run a regular cycle. Everything about this unit is loud. The washing is loud. The water draining is super loud. After the loud calamity of the wash cycle is over, the dishwasher is opened to find water all over everything in the top rack is covered in water. LG needs to do some serious re-engineering for this/their dishwasher. Swapping this for a Bosch ASAP. I do not recommend an LG dishwasher.

    Love the dishwasher and how it functions, but after just a few uses I can tell there is a slight odor when the door is opened. This is due to the dishwasher being installed without a high loop in the drain hose under the sink. I am pretty sure this is a required code in the state of Indiana.

      Hi, Mikey. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the LG Dishwasher (LDTH7972S) model. We’re thrilled to hear that you love how it functions! However, we understand how an odor can affect your overall experience, and we’d like to help address this. We strive to provide high-quality products and ensure a smooth experience.

      You're correct that plumbing codes, including in Indiana, often require a high loop in the drain hose to prevent wastewater from flowing back into the dishwasher. We recommend checking the drain hose installation and ensuring it forms a high loop under the sink to resolve the issue. If it doesn’t, adjusting it should help eliminate the odor caused by potential backflow. For additional help, you may visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/video-tutorials/lg-dishwasher-odor-CT10000009-20151094790088.

    Rinse-only cycle only if data is extorted

    This dishwasher does not come with a rinse-only cycle. Dishwashers have always had rinse-only cycles, so, of course, I expected one. But the only way to get such a cycle on this dishwasher is to get an app, register with LG, agree to many pages of legal terms without any power to modify them, although LG claims the right to modify them at any time, connect the dishwasher to the internet, and let LG take all your data and do with it whatever it wants. It's absolutely ridiculous. It's like a car manufacturer charging car owners more for a reverse gear.

    Extremely unsatisfied. We ordered our appliances in September 2023. It is now January 2024 and my microwave and dishwasher are still sitting in the boxes in my living room waiting to be installed. They have taken all of the old appliances so we have been left with no dishwasher or microwave for quite some time. Communication has been terrible. A few no showed appointments for install. No one on the customer service line has been able to help. For the amount of money spent I would never recommend purchasing appliances from BestBuy.

    This is of the service not the product, but can find no way to email customer support!- Price was not good, but we bought this dishwasher because the delivery was good. This was only because they were lying to us. Was delayed by 2 weeks. Sales person- Lance, was rude and no help. Ended up cancelling and buying from Lowes. Was two hundred dollars cheaper, and they waved the $94 delivery charge. Best buy wanted $150. Best buy is not the store they used to be, absolutely no customer services!!!

You can also try gently lifting and realigning the rack onto the tracks to ensure it's seated properly.
