    I don't have a ton of white clothes so this washer is great for the small load. Also, all your delicate clothes (I have a lot of lace) come out without any damage. You can do two loads at the same time which is perfect for me!

    I bought this instead of a plain pedestal "just because" it was available. I have to say we use it all the time. Although it can be used to wash anything, we often separate out delicates or whites that we don't want in the main load.

    We got an open box item at a great discount. It works extremely well, and we're so happy we got the sidekick over a normal pedestal.

    There was a color problem with the white sidekick pedestal & large LG4370 washers which were a light gray and not white, so they didn't match the white dryer & pedestal which were actually white. Sidekick works well and is far more useful than I ever imagined.

    Nice to have if you just want to do a very smalle load and save water to great idea for smalle items you don't always want to use the big washing machine so it's nice to have this little attachment to it

    This washer has comes in handy for when an item needed to be washed immediately before stains set in and the larger washer was already in use. Also, it's great for when a an item needs to be separated from the main wash due to color bleeding.

    This is very new to me andI haven't used it much at this point. There are many times you just finish the majority of your laundry and find 2 or 3 items you wear a lot. This unit is ideal for this situation.

    How did this not exist sooner. I love being able to wash a super small load. I have always been aggravated when i couldn't quite fit all my clothes in the normal washer. now i just drop them in here, no need to wait.

    Wasn't sure we would use this, but the price ended up being the same as a regular pedestal so we got it. Works great for the extra small grandson load if they come over and have an accident, lingerie etc... So far so good.

    However Best Buy supplied a graphite steel pedestal washer with a black stainless steel Washer & Dryer. Response from Service Rep has been slow and he has not responded to my request to order a replacement black stainless steel pedestal washer so it matches the main Washer. Recommendation to others will depend on how Best But resolves the color issue. Otherwise all good!

    When getting pedestals for the LG the washer has this Sidekick small washer. At first I didn’t think I would ever use cause can’t fit much in there, but then you start to realize it is perfect for small loads.

    Never thought my family would get use out of a pedestal washer but our clothes washing has changed. No longer filling up a washer machine with less than half a load. Especially delicates, this thing is awesome.

    This washer is so awesome. Instead of using the pedestal for storage, I can now wash 2 loads at once. It is so great for delicate items as well as washing smaller loads.

    My wife uses this to wash her delicate items even while using the washer for bulk items. It does not spin as dry are the regular washer but the clothes come out clean. It is great for workout clothes and doing small loads in between large loads. Great Product!!!!

    We are using this washer more frequently than anticipated. It's very good for smaller loads. We originally was going to buy a pedestal for the washer but then decided for a couple hundred dollars more we could have another washer. Great decision.

    Bought this for ease of washing just a uniform, jersey or even delicate items so we don't tie up the washing machine with such a small load. Perfect! Works exactly as needed and looks like a regular pedestal.
