    Mediocre washer function, cheap parts

    The soap dispensing drawer had bad mold that caused the tray to be stacked. The guide for soap dispensing is also installed warped and not flush against the entry further causing the drawer stuck issue. Cheap injection molding and bad QC. Cleaning action is rough for the delicate cycle. Cannot clean queen size comforter thoroughly. I do like the thinkQ app control. Too bad the hardware is subpar. Will never trust LG brand again.

    This washer will not only wash but it will wash large quilts. I’ve got a queen sized bed and have no issues with all my bedding. The problem comes in when you have to network this washer to your internet. I got help at the beginning and it worked well. I had trouble when my internet service provider upgraded my internet speeds. I got a different router which changed things. Fortunately for me it was after warranty. I called Best Buy total membership service which did 5 minutes of help then they passed me on to LG support. LG charges to go farther to resolve. I didn’t pay. So now I don’t have connectivity for the added functionality. Now my washer is just like any other washer. Disappointed after paying premium price and now reduced to regular

    It is very easy to use, there is enough program but it does take the detergent and softener. You are washing your things without detergent and it has very heavy smell I do not know why. I am so disappointed.

      Hi, Seda. Thank you for reaching out about your LG Washer (WM6700HBA) model. We understand the importance of having a washer that dispenses detergent and softener correctly. For this model, one helpful step is to remove the detergent and softener drawer and rinse it thoroughly under warm water, making sure the siphon caps are seated properly when reinstalled. If the siphons are not positioned correctly, the washer may not pull the detergent or softener into the wash. It can also help to run a Tub Clean cycle to clear any buildup that may be affecting water flow. For more guidance, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-washer-troubleshooting-odor-buildup--1337716047757. We’d be glad to take a closer look at what’s happening with your unit. Please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com so we can assist you directly. ^Juvy LG

    The washer seems to be doing okay til the spin cycle. but the delivery team did not let me inspect the washer when they installed it. I had to make sure everything was good after they left. It had a big dent in the back and almost every load is showing it needs to be rebalanced which concerns me.

    I don’t recommend this product. The unit has stopped in the middle of a wash cycle twice and has odd smell after a wash. Think old gym close. Unfortunately, we missed our return date hoping it would get better.

    I JUST received this washer its SO LOUD when washing FILLING WITH WATER I can hear EVERY TUMBLE. unsure why people think its so quiet? Mines not. LOUD on filling-LOUD when tumbling. ALSO, bought the matching dryer. (AND pedestals are all sold out) unsure of the dryer yet as Best buy forgot to include the "Y" attachment for the dryers STEAM feature PLUS all they carry apparently IN STORE- for dryers is a 4' gas line!! so thats what they sent and i truly needed a 6' line- SO BEWARE and check that all out befor ethe installers arrive that you have purchases everything needed. ASK YOUR SALESPERSON ! (not totally satisfied with this very large purchase) HAD to buy new my 18 year old kenmores were done for.

    Not great or good

    When compared to the Electrolux washer it replaced, it can’t even compare. Sadly the Best Buy salesperson said LG was the best brand to go with. I’m glad years ago I did my own research and was happy with Electrolux. The LG’s fit and finish is subpar- worse than some of my child’s cheap toys. There are almost zero options for a cold wash and the matching dryer has too many cycles that are medium to hot only when most clothing states on the label to tumble dry LOW. I am really upset we spent so much money on these appliances.

    Shook my entire house. Brand new construction. Had to return three times, first time delivery dropped the dryer and broke it. Couldn’t complete washer install. After 3 washers still have the vibration issue, we have returned and purchased a Samsung top loader instead
