    Bought this in 2018 and had the drum replaced in 2019, 2020 it was replaced with a brand new one under warranty and now here we are at the end of 2022 and the transmission is shot on it and there’s no warranty These machines do not last more than 2 years. Don’t buy LG. My friend in appliance repair hates LG.

      Hi, there. Thank you for sharing your feedback about the LG Washer (WT7900HBA) model. We understand how important it is for your washing machine to operate quietly and stay stable during cycles. Your insights are valuable, and we appreciate you taking the time to share them.

      If the machine is moving around during spinning, we recommend checking that it’s level and that all four feet are securely adjusted to the floor. Sometimes, adding anti-vibration pads can help stabilize the unit and reduce noise.

    I'm not sure what happened. The first LG Top Loader, something was grinding real during the wash cycle, it was replaced with a second LG Top Loader, the same thing but a worse grinding noise that would vibrate the floor. I still liked the LG but opted for a Front Loader that's works like a dream.

      Hi, EliabeP. Thank you for reaching out and for taking the time to review the LG Washer (WT7900HBA) model. We understand that a loud washer can be disruptive and frustrating, as well as the issue with the stretching and tangling of clothes. This is not the level of performance we aim to deliver. We wanna help you out fixing these issues, please visit this link: https://www.lg.com/us/support/video-tutorials/noises-during-cycle-top-load-washer-CT10000010-20150712816129. And in regards of stretches and tangling of the clothes issue, if the spin speed is too high for the fabrics in the load, it can cause excessive twisting and tangling. Adjusting the spin speed based on the type of laundry you're washing can help prevent this issue. If you find that the issue persists after following the provided suggestions and instructions on the link, please reach out to us on social media @LGUSSupport so we can help you further. We look forward to the opportunity to assist you and regain your trust in our products. ^Juvy LG

      Hi, there. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re really sorry to hear that your LG Washer (WT7900HWA) model arrived scratched and had issues with overfilling. We strive to provide top-notch products and excellent services to ensure a smooth experience. If you haven’t already, please contact Best Buy customer service at 888-237-8289, they should be able to help you with a resolution, including warranty options or assistance with an exchange if needed. For guidance, visit https://www.bestbuy.com/site/help-topics/return-exchange-policy/pcmcat260800050014.c?id=pcmcat260800050014. As for the overfilling issue, it could be related to a number of factors like a malfunctioning water valve or a drain issue. Here are a couple of quick troubleshooting steps: Check the water inlet valve. Sometimes, debris or a stuck valve can cause the washer to overfill. Ensure that the valve is functioning correctly. Make sure the drain hose isn’t clogged and is properly positioned.
      If you’d like to give the unit another chance and need help with troubleshooting or warranty support, please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport. We’re here to help resolve any concerns you have. ^Juvy LG
