    2nd Best LG dryer I have owned

    This is the second LG dryer we have owned. Its quiet and effecient. Dryes everything typically on the first go. Excluding King size blanket. The musical chimes are cute and just loud enough to know the dryer is done. If you dont like the chimes, you can use the app and get notifications to your phone.

    Only pro to this dryer is the large capacity. Cons include stupid door that opens to the side! When you open the door all the socks, dryer balls, small items fall right on the floor. The lint tray is absolutely horrible. Dumbest design ive ever seen! Its folded, so when you open it, the lint wafts in your face. Then you have to peel off the lint over the trash. The settings make so sense. You either have a preset of 35 minutes or 1:03 minutes. If you want anything else, you have to select a bunch of buttons. The app feature is nice. But i also have an LG fridge, stove, dishwasher and microwave so im familiar with the app. As others stated, the machine does the classic LG "song" after each cycle. You cant turn it off. I am returning this set.

      Hi, there. Thank you for sharing your detailed experience with the LG Dryer (DLG8201W) model. We value your feedback and can understand how the design of certain features may not meet every household’s preferences. If you haven’t reversed the door swing yet, no worries! You can check out the instructions in your manual or reach out to a pro for help. And when it comes to the lint filter, just take your time removing lint while keeping it close to the trash—this helps with those pesky floating particles.

      For customizing your drying cycles, feel free to hit Time Dry and adjust the drying time in 5-minute increments using the up/down arrows—no need to stick with what’s preset! Plus, if you want to mute the cycle-end melody, just press and hold the Signal button for 3 seconds, and you’re all set.

      We’re here to help make your experience even better, whether it’s with some handy tips or extra support. Just drop us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and we’d be more than happy to guide you through any additional features or options that could work better for you. Take care! ^Juvy LG

    We only have LG appliances because they are top of the line. This LG smart dryer dries quickly and using the LG ThinQ app makes it even easier in conjunction with the LG smart washer to get the wash done quickly and efficiently. WiFi can be a bit difficult to set up.

    This dryer does a fantastic job, it is quick, efficient, and fairly quiet! It also looks fantastic with the brushed black finish! Im very happy with this purchase and though I've yet to empty out the lint trap, it's actually a pretty simple and standard process, so i expect no issue there. The smart features are also a welcome bonus as it may not be super useful all the time, it does give me status and health info about the dryer that lets me know things are doing what they're supposed to!

    I’m very happy with my new LG gas dryer. The sleek black finish looks great in my laundry room, and the reversible door was easy to switch over. It dries clothes quickly and evenly, with plenty of cycle options that are simple to use.. If you're having trouble in the normal cycle, turn off the energy saver mode. The dryer runs quietly and feels well-built, Overall, it’s been reliable once we figure out all of the different modes, there's a bit of a learning curve

    It works like a charm. The installation of the washing machine and dryer, and the removal of the old units was seamless and professional. Since installation, the performance of the dryer has been excellent. The whole procedure was flawless. I would recommend this unit, purchased at Best Buy to anyone.

    The dryer works very well. It is not excessively loaded with a lot of smart options that we will never use, but still offers more than enough cleaning options.
