  • Clanking Noise-Defective. Poor Customer Service.

    I know this is lengthy, but worth the read! This washer gave me problems right from the start. It make a metal on metal noise when there is any medium to heavy load. I even ran it with just water and it still make the noise. Customer service is a joke. I called them at least 3 times. They offered to come out, but they said I would be charged if they found it was not covered under the warranty. On the first call they said it was not level (this was professionally installed and I sent them pictures of a level next to the washer at different angles. The next time they said the washer was probably overloaded. I showed them pictures of it only 1/2 full. I also ran it with just water and it still make the clanking noise. The 3rd call, they admitted to it being a manufacturing defect, but then tried to take back their statement. The warranty has now expired and I am left with a defective product. I will never buy an LG product again, just based on their customer service. Had problems with the matching dryer, as well.

    This washer machine is just like any other, gets the job done. You have to download the app to get certain settings, like delicate, but still missing some washer settings (like towels) that you think a new washer would have.

    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.

    Love the Dryer, but I was lied to by Best Buy employee. I was told to go ahead and buy this before Memorial day and that they would Price match any sales, only to find out that this was false. I will not use Best Buy again.
