Useless
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Useless machine - failed within a year. The service from LG was appalling. I dread to think what Geek Squad service will be after the first year. LG just deflect, delay and hopefully eventually won't deny supporting the machine. Last LG product I will ever buy!!!

Worst Product I Have Ever Purchased
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not buy. LG's customer service is not good. "Mark" was condescending and rude. Apparently, you have to disassemble a part to vacuum out the lint after each load and the machine is high maintenance. You can only dry half a load and shouldn't use the energy saver mode at all. Repair person said it was meant for 1-2 people max. This machine definitely doesn't match the advertising promises put out by LG. Will never purchase another appliance by them.

Buy if you hate yourself, your family, or world
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I could give this washing machine negative stars I would. I have had this for about two weeks and I cry each and every day. The machine shakes the whole house and takes HOURS to wash and dry even when following the weight limits. It shoukd be a crime for a company to sell such an expensive item that does a horrible job. The engineers behind this are the worst.

Posted .Hi, there. Thanks for sharing your feedback with us. We understand your concern about the LG Wash Combo (WM6998HBA) model. We strive to provide high-quality products and ensure a smooth experience. To help with the shaking, it might be a good idea to check if the washer is leveled properly and that all four feet are snug against the floor. Also, maybe try reducing the load size a bit, since overloading can sometimes cause instability. If you haven't already, it may also help to ensure that the shipping bolts have been removed (if applicable) and that the machine is securely placed on a solid surface.

For other common questions, our general usage instructions could be really helpful in making sure everything runs smoothly.

Wait for version 2.0
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It seems like a great unit at first, but eventually stops being reliable. It has a major flaw... Sometimes it stays in the dry cycle indefinitely for hours after the clothes are dry until manually stopped.

Machine I ever owned I kept it for a week and retu
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The worst machine I have ever owned. I was so disappointed in it. It takes almost 4 hours to dry a full load after the machine washes it, and then switches over to the dry cycle.

First and foremost, we want to acknowledge your frustration and disappointment. No one likes feeling this way, especially due to a product they invested in.

Ft Mega Capacity with Inverter HeatPump™ Technology and Direct Drive Motor, Model # WM6998HBA.
The advertised "Wash and Dry in 2 Hours in This LG WashCombo™ All-in-One" is based on independent testing in Wash+Dry cycle with Dryer on Energy Saver mode, 10 lb. DOE (Department of Energy) standard load (October 2023). Cycle times may vary depending on load type/weight.

Terrible Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked for about 2 months before the motherboard went out and it has been a nightmare working with LG. We have been getting the run around trying to get a refund for the machine and are out $280 for the pedestal because neither LG or Best Buy will refund us for that.

Posted .Hi there! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand that it can be challenging when laundry isn't drying properly. It sounds like you've been going through quite a process with your load.
We would like to assist you further in resolving the issue you're experiencing with your LG Washer/Dryer Combo (model WM6998HBA). Based on your description, there could be a few factors contributing to the drying performance. We recommend checking a couple of things:
Inlet Valves and Water Hoses: Ensure that the water valve is fully opened and that the hoses are not kinked or bent. This can affect the proper functioning of the unit.
Drain Filter: It's essential to clean the drain filter to ensure proper drainage, which plays a role in drying. You can follow these steps to clean the filter:
Open the cover at the lower left side of the unit.
Pull out the residual water hose and drain any water into a mop or basin.
Once the water is drained, turn the large cap left to disassemble and clean the filter under running water.
Reassemble and close the cap securely.

Posted .Hi, Denise. Thank you for reaching out. We understand how important it is for your LG WashCombo (WM6998HBA) model to perform reliably, especially after just a few months of use.

Also, ensure the door is fully closed and the control panel is responsive. For a range of common concerns, we recommend also reviewing our general usage instructions to help achieve optimal performance.

Posted .Hi, Ernesto. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your concern about experiencing such long cycle times with your LG Wash Combo (WM6998HBA) model. We strive to provide high-quality products and ensure a smooth experience. Long cycle times can sometimes occur due to settings, load size, or even a potential issue with the machine. Here’s a quick troubleshooting step to try: If you're using a heavy-duty cycle or deep clean setting, these can take longer. Try switching to a quicker wash cycle like the Normal or Speed Wash to reduce cycle time. Overloading the washer can also cause longer wash times. Make sure the drum isn't too packed, as this can slow the cycle down significantly. Sometimes, slow water flow can extend cycle times. Make sure the water inlet hoses are properly connected and not kinked or clogged. For more help, you may visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-washer-front-load-washing-machine-cycles-and-options--1337797444134. If these steps don't help, it could indicate an underlying issue that requires further attention. Please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be more than happy to guide you through additional troubleshooting or assist with any warranty concerns. ^Juvy
