    I returned this model and exchanged for different LG model. The AI cycle is rough on clothes. The turbo wash in general is rough on clothes. You can’t manipulate a lot of the cycles so you are stuck with turbo was on the most used cycles.

    Wash cycles default to hit and high spin and won't let change. Deep fill and single item loads make my breaker trip. The slanted lid is annoying because you can't sit anything on it to dry without it sliding off.

      Hi, Allison. Thanks for sharing your experience with the LG Washer (WT8400CW) model. We understand how important it is for your appliance to offer flexibility and convenience in everyday use.

      If the wash cycles default to Hot water and High spin and won’t allow changes, one step you can try is resetting the control panel by unplugging the unit for 60 seconds and plugging it back in. This can help clear any temporary glitches. For Deep Fill and single-item loads, we recommend balancing the load with at least one or two additional items to prevent unbalanced spinning, which may cause power surges and trip the breaker. You can find more cycle customization tips and safety guidance here: https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-WT8400CW.AEWETUS. If you’d like further assistance, feel free to email us at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We’re here to help. ^Juvy LG

    STAINING ALL CLOTHES BLACK! PERMANENT DAMAGE

    1. I had my older washing machine for 10+ years, and it was still going strong! I only bought this one to upgrade appliances & because I deserved a new washer. BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER. What I wouldn't do to get my older machine back. 2. This machine is only 3 months old and it's been staining my clothes with black residue. 3. Yes, I run tub clean cycles often as per the manual. 4. Yes, LG made me purchase a tub cleaner and run the cycle 3x back to back to rule out it's not me. 5. I did as I was told, sent pictures of all 3 cycles I ran. 6. Then I did a load of laundry and THE STAINS ARE NOW 1000000% WORSE! DID I MENTION THEY ARE PERMANENT STAINS??? OVER $900 worth of clothes damaged, and they seem to prolong the troubleshooting.

    Tried to love it - gets off balance a lot when spinning. Like most review state, water does not cover clothes when washing. Washer does not have a soak feature as I was informed by sales rep when purchasing. Detergent dispenser always filled with water even though appliance is level.

      Hi, John. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG washer model WT8400CW. For the balance issue during spinning, ensure the washer is level and that the load is evenly distributed. Regarding the water coverage, try adjusting the load size settings to match the amount of laundry. The detergent dispenser can remain filled with water if the washer is overfilled or if there’s a clog. If these suggestions don't resolve the issues, please send us a private message on our social media platform via @LGUSSupport. Our team will provide further troubleshooting and support to enhance your washing experience. We appreciate your patience and are here to assist. ^Sam LG

      Hi, there. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG Washer (WT8400CW) model. We understand how important it is for the lid to open and close smoothly during everyday use. One helpful step you can try is to check the hinge area and the lid dampers to ensure nothing is obstructing the motion. Wiping the hinge points and making sure the washer is leveled properly can also help the lid align and close more easily. For more guidance, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/troubleshooting-an-lg-top-load-washer-door-that-will-not-close-properly--20152830489687.
