Amazing!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dryer is amazing, truly. Drying time is quick, maybe about 30 minutes a load. Sometimes it will pop up with an error (D85 or D90) though if you are doing too many loads one right after another or doing bulky items, because of the flowsense, it is related to your ducts. Definitely check on your ducts, as that was our issue the first day, it was in desperate need to cleaning out. It's nice to have that warning, but can get a bit annoying if it is just because of a bulky blanket and not actually due to the ducts. The filter itself was a bit confusing at first, I was afraid of breaking it, but there is a little latch for it. It is a bit weird with all the lines to clean it off. Overall a great purchase and in all a load takes not even an hour from wash to dry. It means my family and I can keep up with laundry easier and not fight about using as it doesn't take long. It also means I can do mine later at night after work without worry as it's not loud and doesn't take too long.

BEST LG Top load
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the LG washer/dryer set after 3 days of searching. I absolutely love this set. Large capacity, Fits a King Comforter easy. Love all the features it has. AI wash, deep wash and deep fill work great. It is super quiet during operation. The app is definitely a plus to have. Very satisfied with this purchase. No regrets!!!

Awesome Dryer

Great
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Limited experience with nice dryers. I bought this and the matching washer because of the capacity. So far it’s been great. I also really enjoy the jingle it sounds off with when the cycle is complete.

Crisp & Clean Machine
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice machine. Black looks nice, but is high maintenance as it needs to be wiped down often as dust shows immediately and smoked glass shows fingerprints immediately. That's the trade off for a dark color. Machine comes in lighter color if that's an issue. We needed to have the door open the other way; the instructions for accomplishing this were straight forward and it was easy to do. Took about 45 min. Door has a two way opening feature so it can be opened from the top and side. Very nice feature. Controls pretty intuitive to use and didn't require the use of the manual. Previous LG machines we've owned had choices for signal volume control and custom load features that could be programmed for loads that are frequently used, nice features that are missing in this newer machine. Not a deal breaker, but they should've kept those feature in. Haven't tried the SMART features yet, but maybe there is something in that feature that can be utilized. The lint trap is a fold-able type where one needs to open it to remove the lint and close it again; possible weak point when opening and closing each load. We are happy with the machine overall and would recommend it.

Wonderful
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does good job but may need more time for thicker clothes to dry completely. Several functions to choose based on needs. Two options to open the door is a nice feature. Coupled with the washer, this is a wonderful purchase.

Defective LG dryer
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Dryer lint filter design is defective. Lint goes outside the filter on both sides and accumulates in the bottom of the filter opening. error message of blocked vent d80 appears after nearly every load. Photos show lint manually pulled out after just one load, and lint on either side of filter. I contacted LG, but they won't accept a complaint unless I pay for a duct cleaning and present a paid receipt. No problem with the duct. Problem is the machine.

Posted .Hi, Maxine. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your concern about the lint filter issue on your LG Dryer (DLE8400WE) model and the recurring "blocked vent" error. We really want to make sure our products meet your needs and expectations.
It seems like the lint filter design might not be catching all the lint, which could be causing it to build up in places it shouldn't. To start, we suggest checking that the lint filter is seated properly and cleaned out before each load. If you're still having trouble, take a look around the filter area to see if there's any extra lint blocking airflow. You can find more information at https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-dryer-error-code-list--20152310891742.
Since this looks like it might be an internal issue with the machine rather than the duct, we’d love to help you out further! Just send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport with some photos of the lint buildup and any other details you can share, and our team will be here to help you sort this out.
We're dedicated to making sure your dryer works just right for you. ^Juvy

Do not purchase these washers from Best Buy.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best Buy delivered two sets of defective LG washer dryers (deemed defective by Best Buy) and they withheld $485.96 from me after taking all appliances/accessories. Not to mention my home is damaged throughout. My brain hurts trying to scroll through photos to attach to this ridiculous review. They have escalated this issue more than 10 times to who knows where, and I am still on hold. Going on 3 hours now. Best Buy will take money from you and refund you in the form of gift cards. I am on the receiving end of a manager making noise about how i should not be telling them ‘how to do their job.’ I have never been met with such stupidity and fraudulent conduct. I paid $1,831.94 for the first round, received $1,601.95 as refund. Then i purchased another round for $1,695.95 and received $1,439.98 as refund. Math is clear as day, and every time it is just escalating this to there and mam, what did you do with the gift cards issued…nothing, absolutely nothing Best Buy. If you check your records, then those gift cards remain unused. It has been 2 months, and Best Buy is still holding onto $485.96. And now this manager must be going on lunch, they hung up on me.

Great dryer with high load capacity
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this dryer to accompany the corresponding LG washer, and I’m very happy with it! PROS: • Dries close efficiently, effectively, and gently — and in less time than my previous dryer. • Has a large capacity; I can easily fit a king size duvet in this dryer. • Option to choose between a variety of drying cycle presets, or set your own time and temperature. • The lint trap is very effective and easy to reach. • It’s easy to operate. • It’s quiet. • I like that the app sends notifications when the drying cycle is finished. • I like the ability to choose which song plays at the end of the cycle. • It looks great and is easy to wipe away fingerprints with a dry microfiber cloth. CONS: • The top of the dryer is sloped, which is annoying since I also use the dryer top as a working surface when doing laundry. I attached a mat to the top with double-sided tape that makes it possible to put clothes on top without them slipping onto the floor, but it’s annoying to have to find a workaround for what should have been a design consideration to begin with. • Sometimes I have to use a lint roller to get pet hair out of the lint catcher. The mesh in this catcher really likes to hang onto it! But I’d much rather have this issue than have pet hair falling inside my dryer. Overall, I’m very pleased and would not hesitate to recommend this dryer. I hope the product designers will reconsider the sloped top for future machines though. We need flat dryer tops, folks!

lg dle8400be dryer matte black
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sleek design and easy to use. I love how quick my clothes are dried and the smart dry design that ensures clothes are actually dry and not partially damp. The two way entry is unique. Unfortunately I was unable to connect it to my phone through the app however that doesn't bother me since there have been zero problems with my loads being fully dry after one cycle. I enjoy the music played at the end of the dry cycle letting my know my load is finished. I'm pleased with my new dryer and would recommend.

Great Drier
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's an excellent drier with a ton of features and is relatively simple to use! It is fast, very quiet, and seems gentle on our clothes. The multi-articulating door that opens in both forward and side-facing directions is a game changer for small laundry rooms or tight spaces.

Dryer works well at a great price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the LG DLE8400BE dryer with the matching top load washer. The dryer is quiet, functions well, and looks good. The only thing I dislike is the lint filter. While I like the very fine mesh that catches more lint, I do not like the multi-panel framing and the clam shell design. It makes it too awkward to quickly remove the lint. Although this is just a minor issue, I feel LG could do better to make lint removal more convenient instead of having to dig lint out of eleven framed panels while trying to hold the clam shell open. While emptying this lint filter is a PITA, it does not detract from the overall satisfaction of the dryer. Others may disagree, but I like everything else about this dryer.

Love it
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this drier and the dual opening options on the door for loading and unloading clothes. Gets clothes dry super quick. My only concern is dryer sheets tend to get stuck in the lint housing and don’t tumble with the clothes. Doesn’t do it every load but 7/10 loads. Love the app notifications for cycle completion so I can get clothes out instantly without hearing some annoying jingle.
