If anyone is wondering of this washer drawer is worth it - it is. I bought for my mom and she brags about it every single time she uses it. Great investment and it helps her finish laundry quickly. She uses it to was sweaters and garmets she typically separates.

I had to wait on my pedestal washer but it was worth it! There IS a remote for it but I had to track it down! I got the best washers I ever had! The repair gent who stopped a small code was very knowledgeable! I love my washers!

We have this mainly because my daughters are in dance and it is nice to do a small load with their leotards, etc. The only downside is the increase in hoses behind the washer. Plan on about 5” behind for them, unless you have the 90° angled ends, then plan about 3-4”. The cycle time is about 37 minutes for delicate. You will wonder why it stops and beeps about 17 minutes in...it’s the time you can add softener. Be careful because you have to pour liquid detergent directly into this...don’t get it on the clothes, it can leave a mark. I feel like it does a good job washing the clothes, except it may not get the detergent out of the clothes if you pour it on them accidentally. I wish it had the Smart ThinQ app connect.

We have owned one before, leaving it at out old house. So when we purchased a new full sized washer, this was a no brainer. It gets a ton of use with our family of four doing quick sports gear washes or the delicates. Also, since we have a front loader for full sized, its nice to have a top loading mini. Its a luxury no doubt, but is pretty awesome!

LOVE this sidekick washer. I waited to buy it on sale because i couldn’t justify the regular price. I wasn’t sure I’d use it a lot, but i do. Works well, quiet and is big enough for my lingerie, the kids’ sports clothes, etc. Would be nice if this was the WiFi model though.

This little washing machine is a very nice addition to the main one. When I only have a few things to wash this is priceless. It saves water, it saves energy and I don't feel guilty running a washing machine for just a few things. Absolutely love it!

So glad we bought the sidekick. Considering what the pedestals cost anyway I cannot recommend enough springing for the sidekicks. Given how large a load the washer can take you will have your smaller items and things that you shouldn't use softener on and the sidekick is perfect for those things.

The Sidekick is very easy to use and is able to fit a smaller load of wash without any issues. Just wish you could use bleach in this appliance, when you have a small load of whites...

This can be used for small loads, rather than using a full wash cycle. Easy to use, cleans well, and seems reliably built. Would certainly get this as an add-on to the washer (rather than buying the pedestal).

We Goff as sidekick for the side by side washer and dryer. They’re worth the cost, and should be considered as standard option with these machines. Lg just rocks. Their cell phone department lags a little, but you can’t truly do it all at once everywhere and Awesome. Oled TV. The LG gram notebook i read is beautiful. Rank among the best in kitchen appliances, home entertainment, Life’s Good

Perfect for small loads of clothes, only thing I don't like is that it does not have compartments to dispense soap and softener. You have to use PODS

I didn’t think I would use this washer much. But I do. Quick washes. For just a few items. Or special cycle use. Great idea. I had to buy a pedestal. For an 100 bucks. Well worth it.

The Side kick is an overall, great addition to the main loader. Fact is we needed more washing machine cubic feet but with limited space for the appliances. But with the sidekick, it solved all the problems, quite innovative

This addition has been a great little tool for my daughters. I have two girls that are active in ballet and gymnastics. This little machine make for great, quick washes of their leotards and tights, without having to use all the water and electricity of firing up the larger washer to get these small loads done. It is also great for when someone needs one or two items washed right away and we don't quite have a full load to do. Also, it comes in handy when we find those stray socks or towels that missed the full load we had just started twenty minutes ago and is almost done. Such a great addition and use of space. Plus the added height makes using the larger front loader easier to access.

This machine is really useful for small loads or quick washes such as shoes. It doesn't require additional space.
