One-Star Warning: A Stinking Mess of Regret
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not, under any circumstances, buy this LG washing machine. From day one, it has been a nightmare, and the customer service experience has only compounded the frustration. The most glaring issue is the persistent, horrible smell emanating from the machine's tub. It doesn't matter what detergents I use or how diligently I follow the cleaning instructions—the stench remains. I've owned several washing machines in my life and have never encountered such a problem, nor have I ever needed to perform so much "maintenance" on a machine just to keep it from stinking. Keep in mind, I purchased this LG washing machine in February 2025, so it's essentially a brand-new machine! In a desperate attempt to resolve the issue, I even spent over $200 on a plumber to inspect and replace the water lines, only to be told that the odor originates from the machine itself. So, I followed protocol and purchased washing machine detergents to clean the tub as per the warranty service request and the smell is still there. The warranty, both the manufacturer's and the extended Geek Squad warranty, have proven utterly worthless. Geek Squad refuses to assist because the issue falls under the manufacturer's warranty, which begs the question: what exactly is the point of paying extra for an extended warranty if it provides no additional coverage? LG's warranty service has been equally unhelpful, with representatives seemingly uninterested in resolving the problem or taking responsibility for their faulty product. It feels like nobody wants to help fix the issue or take responsibility of their product and service. Save yourself the headache, the wasted money, and the disgusting smell. Avoid this LG washing machine and definitely don't waste your money on an extended warranty that offers no real value. You're better off washing your clothes by hand.

Pretty Sweat!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really happy with this washer. Clean looking and runs good. Wish it had more "physical" buttons on the machine but the app allows for about 15 other load cycles so overall very happy. Thought having a washing machine logged into network was dorky BUT I LOVE when my phone tells me the wash is done.

No soak feature. LG please fix!!!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No soak feature on this machine. LG falsely has claims on the website that you can download more cycles that include a pre-wash but this is false. If you pause the cycle midway it auto drains so there is not work around. You could manually fill the machine before it’s turned on and add water to soak but who wants to do that. Seems like a really simple fix, but LG keeps misrepresenting that you can pre-soak but you can’t as of today.

LG Washer
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This washer cleans well, and has a large capacity, reducing the number of loads. It did take me a while to figure out how to use it. It has AI, but no delicate setting. It is all electronic and I downloaded the LG ThinQ, to do laundry from my phone, however, I miss just having buttons and settings where I can just choose for myself.

Almost An Excellent Washer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Terrific washer, with two exceptions. The black panel is a bit hard to read. Needs to be brighter. And the top of the washer is sloped, so if you put a basket of clothes on top, it will probably vibrate off. I bought a soft rubber pad to put on top to stop this.
