    Please do not waste your money on this washer. The software updates from the manufacturer disabled our machine. LG has been out twice and cannot fix the machine. Best Buy “can’t do anything since it is within the manufacturer warranty period.” Save your funds because you will end up frustrated with this machine.

      Hello there. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG - 5.5 Cu. Ft. High Efficiency Smart Top Load Washer. We understand that the machine is currently disabled following a software update and that your attempts to get the unit repaired have not been successful. We understand your inquiry and the frustration caused by not having a functioning washing machine, especially one that is still under warranty.

      To address the software-related issue and potentially restore functionality, a simple power cycle or hard reset can sometimes clear internal glitches that follow updates.

      Basic Troubleshooting Step (Hard Reset):

      Press the Power button to turn the washer OFF.

      Unplug the washer's power cord from the wall outlet or turn off the circuit breaker to the unit.

      While the power is disabled, press and hold the Start/Pause button for 5 seconds to discharge any residual electricity.

      Plug the washer back in or turn the circuit breaker back on, and try restarting a cycle.

    Dear BestBuy managers, Almost three months ago, I purchased an LG washer and dryer that were supposed to be among the best on the market. All I can say is that I am very dissatisfied with my purchase. The washer does not clean as it should; it leaves my clothes somewhat dirty. And as for the dryer, it not only fails to remove all the pet hair, but the fabric softener sheets I use also get stuck in the drum's openings, which are supposed to efficiently expel hair and lint. It’s unacceptable that I spent nearly two thousand dollars on these two machines and am experiencing worse performance than the machines I had before. What I am requesting is the replacement of both machines with ones that are more effective and intelligent. I hope to hear from you soon. I plan to visit my local BestBuy store in Vallejo, CA, to seek a resolution to my dissatisfaction. Sincerely, Carlos Somocurcio Leon

      Hi, Carlos. Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience with the LG Washer (WT8600CB) model. We understand your concern, especially after investing in LG appliances. We strive for reliable, high-quality products and ensure a smooth and seamless experience. If the washer is not cleaning effectively, there are a few things we can check, like load size, detergent type, or cycle selection. We also recommend running the Deep Clean cycle to help maintain optimal performance.

      Regarding the dryer, pet hair can sometimes be difficult to remove entirely, especially if there’s a heavy buildup, but we do have tips on improving lint removal. Also, fabric softener sheets getting stuck could be due to the type of sheet being used or the positioning within the drum. For quick help, you may visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-washer-clothing-not-clean-properly--1337626293790. To best assist you, we recommend that you reach out to us privately so that we can review your concerns in more detail and provide troubleshooting steps, or arrange for a technician to assess the units. Please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and we will work to resolve this matter swiftly.

      We appreciate your patience and are here to help. ^Juvy LG

  • Washer ruins everything it touches

    This washer ruined my life. Please do not get it. Every peace of clothing item it touches becomes ripped wnd damaged. The auto dispenser does not dispense enough soap and softener making my clothes not retain its shape and makes the clothing garments tight making my jeans and bras unwearable. At the end of the cycle the clothes don’t feel clean and also its not enough water on the clothes so when you put them in the dryer it dries and then shrinks within 10 minutes.

    Very bad service, they removed plastic parts where the water hoses are connected and didn't put them back on. When they left I had to disconnect everything and put them back on myself.

      Hello there. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your situation and how concerning it must have been to receive your new WT8600CB Top Load Washer in that condition. While you decided to return the unit, we’d still like to help should you ever consider LG again in the future. In cases like this, a factory residue or leftover detergent may sometimes be present due to final quality testing. For future reference, performing a Tub Clean cycle without laundry before the first use can help prevent leaks and remove any remaining detergent from the dispenser.

      If there’s ever anything we can assist you with, please feel free to send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport. We’d be more than happy to help. —Renzo LG
