    I've long been an LG washer/dryer customer, I've had some issues in the past, so I went to top loader for this and it's PHENOMENAL! I REALLY love this model. No issues at all, and really beautiful and well made - MASSIVE improvement over the Samsung models I tried in between. Don't make the same mistake I made, go with this model right out of the gate.

    This is the best washer I have ever owned. And I got the dryer to match it. It’s amazing quality and my clothes come out smelling so clean and fresh. It’s even big enough to fit our king size bed comforter in! I am so happy with this purchase!

    So far the washer has performed remarkably well. It is much quieter than the older LG model that it replaced. It also washes batches of laundry in less time which is a welcome improvement. Best of all, our clothes smell much fresher now.

    After several weeks of using this washer, I love it! The capacity is awesome and I love not having an agitator. It is a bit louder than my previous front load washer but the benefits outweigh that.

    The LG washer and dryer is amazing. The many different settings is amazing. You put the soaps in the dispenser and it will dispersed the right amount for up to 24 loads which is pretty amazing. The connection for the steam for the dryer was pretty easy to do and i highly recommend if your water line is away from the dryer i think 6ft to 8ft would be perfect.

    I love this washer so much. The features in this machine is absolutely incredible. It has so much features and so easy to use. This also saves you a lot of money on getting detergent since it only consumes what the machine thinks how much detergent is needed for the items in the washer. Definitely recommend this washer. I absolutely love it!
