Customer Ratings & Reviews

Hi, Jazz. Thank you for reaching out about your LG Washer (WT8400CW) model. We understand how important it is for your laundry cycles to deliver consistently clean results, and we appreciate you sharing your experience.

For everyday wear and minor stains, the Normal cycle should typically be sufficient. If you're finding that only Deep Clean or Heavy Duty cycles are effective, here are a few steps you can try: Too much or too little can affect cleaning performance. High-efficiency (HE) detergent is recommended. Overloading the drum can prevent clothes from agitating properly, reducing cleaning effectiveness.

Hi, Deja. Thank you for sharing your experience with the LG Washer (WT8400CB) model. We appreciate your patience and want to help ensure your washer performs as expected.

If the unit is making loud noises during the spin cycle and not draining properly, we recommend checking the drain hose for any kinks or clogs and confirming that the washer is level on all four corners. An uneven surface can cause excessive vibration and affect drainage. Also, inspect the filter located inside the drain pump—debris buildup can restrict water flow and lead to drainage issues.

Hi, Christopher. Thank you for sharing your experience with the LG Washer (WT8400CB) model. We understand your concern regarding the requirement to download the app for certain functions. The ThinQ app is here to help with cool stuff like custom cycles, remote control, and maintenance alerts, but we know that getting everything set up can feel a bit tricky.

Here’s a little tip to make things smoother: just make sure your washer is connected to Wi-Fi and registered in the ThinQ app before you dive in. This way, downloading custom cycles like "Delicate" will be a breeze! If you’re having any trouble with connectivity, try resetting your washer’s network settings by holding the Wi-Fi button for 3 seconds, and double-check that your phone is on the same network.

Hi, Brandi. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand your concern with the LG Washer (WT8400CW) model, especially given the challenges you’ve faced with its performance. We strive to provide reliable, high-quality products that exceed our customer's needs and expectations. The deep tub on your washer is designed to handle large loads, but it sounds like the agitation and water level may not be optimal for certain bulky or heavily soiled items like your comforter and baby gear. To improve cleaning results, we recommend using the "Heavy Duty" cycle for larger items, as this is designed for bulkier loads like comforters. You could also try adding a bit more detergent if you’re washing a large or soiled item, as it may need a bit more to get fully clean.

Additionally, if there’s still residue left on items after washing, it’s a good idea to check the washer’s drainage and spin cycle. Sometimes, if the washer isn’t draining properly or if it’s overloaded, it can affect the wash quality.

Hi, there. Thank you for sharing your feedback about your LG Washer (WT8400CW) model. We understand your concern, especially when it comes to washing white linens and bulky items like bedding. Our goal is to provide you with reliable, high-quality products that really meet your needs and expectations.

For those larger loads, we suggest using the Bulky/Large Load cycle. It’s designed just for that, helping with proper water distribution.

Hello there, RayS. Thank you for sharing your experience with us regarding your LG WT8400CW top load washer. We understand your inquiry about the water temperature during hot water washes, and that you found it to be only lukewarm.

For LG washers, especially high-efficiency models, the water temperature for different cycles is often regulated to optimize cleaning and energy consumption. While there is a "Hot" setting, the actual temperature may be a blend of hot and cold water to reach a specific target temperature rather than purely hot tap water. This is part of the Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) feature designed to ensure consistent performance and energy efficiency.

If you believe the hot water is significantly below what is expected even for a blended temperature, you could check that both the hot and cold water supply hoses are correctly connected to the hot and cold inlets on the back of the washer. Also, ensuring that your home's hot water supply is fully turned on and that there's no issue with your water heater's output temperature can be helpful.
