      Posted .

      Hi, there. Thanks for reaching out. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

      We understand how important it is for your LG Washer (WT8400CB) model to stay fresh and odor-free. A persistent smell can often be caused by detergent buildup, trapped moisture, or residue in hidden areas. To help resolve this, we recommend running the Tub Clean cycle using an LG-approved washing machine cleaner or white vinegar. Be sure to leave the lid open between washes to allow the interior to dry completely. You can also check out here: https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-top-load-washer-cleaning-and-maintenance-guide--20152385368911 for more tips on keeping your unit fresh.

      If you’d like further assistance, feel free to send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We’re here to help. ^Juvy LG

    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
