    It was good buy on sale for $500. It is deep so it is something to consider if you are short. Nice app andcontrols.

    I love the large tub in this washer. The wash cycle selections are wonderful. This washer is an awesome upgrade for me. I chose this because my mom and brother have had one for a few years and are very satisfied with it.

    We have had this washer for almost 2 years now. I am very pleased with the washer. It has many cycle choices that all work well. My only complaint is not having a write user’s manual, or at least a choice to get one. I would have like to have more information on the different cycles.

    Great washer, easy-to-use, if you're petite it might be difficult getting to the bottom of the washer to get your clothes, I'm 5'6 and I have some difficulty getting clothes that are on the bottom, other than that I love it

    Still new but it works flawlessly; I had a good Samsung clothes washer before and it was great until it started to leak after 9 years of daily use. I have no complaints about this washer, they get “smarter” as technology improves so the wash cycle is much shorter for this one depending on the size of the load.

    Washer goes off balance easily with towels & sheets. My old Maytag never did. Washing choices are difficult to figure out and some of the cycles are over an hour long.

    Don’t Buy an LG Washer!

    We purchased this washer in March 2023, so it is just over 2 years old. For the first 1 1/2 years, I was very happy with the washer because it was easy to use, had a lot of cycle choices, the finish was good, and laundry came out clean. However, beginning in fall 2024, things went downhill. First, the control panel had to be replaced because the Start button wasn’t working properly. This was repaired under the extended warranty. Second, the machine started leaving black and brown smudges on the washed laundry. LG blamed me for using too much detergent and fabric softener, but I haven’t changed the amount of product I use in years and I never had this problem with two previous HE washers. I have run the Clean Tub cycle about 13 times over the last 6 weeks, but the problem still happens constantly. Geek Squad has replaced the impeller plate and there was no evidence of detergent sludge that LG blames for these smudges. The tech found grease around the drive shaft under the impeller plate, cleaned it up, and put the machine back together. This fixed the problem for less than two weeks. Geek Squad has ordered a new basket (tub?) and it is due to be installed this week. In the meantime, nearly every load of laundry comes out with black smudges and I spend a lot of time scrubbing them out with Goo Gone and Dawn and hoping they will come out clean when I rewash them. At this point, I am very disappointed with this washer and with LG and wish Best Buy would just declare it a lemon and replace it under the extended warranty.

    • Brand response from LG Digital Customer Care
      Posted .

      Hi, there. Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your experience with the LG Washer (WT7900HWA) model. We understand your concern about dealing with ongoing issues, especially after having such a positive start with the unit. We strive to provide reliable, high-quality products that exceed our customers' needs and expectations.

      The presence of black or brown smudges on laundry, especially after the impeller and drive shaft have already been addressed, can sometimes indicate residual grease or buildup deep within the wash tub system. In cases like this, replacing the inner tub (basket), as already scheduled, may be the right step forward, particularly if there’s seepage from the drive system. While the Clean Tub cycle helps with routine maintenance, this situation appears to go beyond that.

      We’d like to ensure your concerns are fully documented and reviewed from our side as well. Please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport so we can connect directly, monitor the progress of your current service, and explore the next best steps with you, including speaking with our team about any further resolution options that may be available. ^Juvy LG

    I love everything about this washer, it has all the features that anyone would want, however, I don't know why they don't have an "underwear" setting? Surely these are some of the most washed items ever?

    Washer is wonderful, all the bells and whistles. Not sur if i will use every feature. The only reason im giving 4 stars is its so big. I am 5’2” and i have to stand on a stool to get my laundry out. As i cannot reach the bottom. Or my husband has to help me. I wish i would of gotten one size smaller for that reason. It washes bedding great!

    I'm really happy with this washing machine. Huge capacity; I can wash all my bedding including my comforter all in one load. One note: it's top loading and deep, I'm 5'2" and sometimes it's hard to reach the bottom to get out all the items.
