Glad I have it

Delighted with the large capacity. Well-pleased with it's performance; really like the sensing for needed water process at the start of the wash. Glad I bought it. I do have a few questions: why is the top slanted so it can't be used to fold and sort clothes from the dryer? why did I have to call your 800 number to get a real owners manual, since the book which came with the dryer is worthless?

Hi, Mary! We appreciate your wonderful review of your LG Dryer! It’s great hearing how much you’re enjoying the large capacity and the smart water‑sensing performance — features designed to make laundry day feel a little smoother! As for your questions, the slanted top is part of the dryer’s design to help prevent items from being placed on top during operation. And we’re glad you reached out for the full LG owner’s manual — having the complete guide definitely makes exploring all the features easier! For more feedback or questions, please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. Thanks for choosing LG! #LifesGood ^James

Very Poor Performance

I purchased this washer a few months ago, and I am quite disappointed with its performance. The washer does not clean clothes properly, often leaving a white or grey residue on them. The drum does not fill with enough water - when I look through the glass top, I can see that the water level never rises above a quarter of the drum, even with a full load of clothes. So the top layer of clothes doesn't even get wet. Even when using the deep wash cycle and extra rinse feature, there is very little improvement. Additionally, the washer lacks sufficient agitation to clean the clothes properly. The drum spins gently, causing the clothes to float around in the water with minimal movement. Another issue is that the detergent and softener dispenser fills up with water after every wash, requiring me to remove and empty it manually. Furthermore, the spinning cycle is quite loud and causes half of my upper floor to shake. Unfortunately, my experience with this washer has been far from satisfactory, and I have decided to return it.

No what I expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to get my new LG washer delivered today. I started a load of bedding which consisted of a lightweight coverlet, one sheet and two pillowcases. The tub filled up with water which was a lot nicer than my last washer that would barely wet the clothes, so of course I sat and watched my clothes go through the cycles and to my disappointment the bedding floated at the top while the washer shifted back and forth. The bedding never changed positions as if it was actually being washed. It floated around in a circle and only changed positions in the spin cycle. This is extremely disappointing.

Hi there. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your situation with the WT8400CB washer and the issue of your bedding not being properly agitated. Your feedback is important, and we'd like to assist you further. One troubleshooting step you can try is to redistribute the load to ensure an even distribution, as an uneven load can cause items to float and not agitate properly. Also, consider using the "Bulky/Bedding" cycle for such loads, as it is designed to handle larger items like comforters and blankets more effectively.

LG appliances use less water & detergent

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I studied Consumer reports for Washer,Dryer,And Refrigerator for my new home in 55+ community. My large capacity top loading washer is amazing! It has so much room and uses less soap and water! It spins out so much water that the dryer can dry a load in just a short time!

Horrible washer

Horrible. This machine is so loud. If you work from home and want to put on a load it is so loud you can't even concentrate. Don't think about starting a load before bed. It is poorly designed. We had three replacements and all of them sound the same. The design is flawed. It's unfortunate for a new device. They focused on the tech at the expense of the a quiet machine.

Washer WT8400CB Review Title

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I couldn't be more pleased with my recent purchase of the LG washer WT8400CB! Since getting it on July 27, 2024, it has exceeded all my expectations. The design is sleek and modern, fitting perfectly in my laundry space. One of the standout features is the Wi-Fi connectivity. It allows me to monitor and control the machine remotely, which is incredibly convenient. I can start a load while I’m out, and the machine even notifies me when it's done. The detailed information it provides on energy consumption has also been a game-changer. I’m able to track how much energy each cycle uses, helping me make more efficient choices and save on electricity bills. The washing performance is outstanding. Clothes come out cleaner and fresher than ever, and the machine handles everything from delicate fabrics to heavy-duty loads with ease. It’s quiet, efficient, and built to last. Overall, the LG washer has made laundry day easier and more efficient. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a reliable, high-tech washing machine!

Nice washer

Only complaints is that the set has a slanted top and when folding clothes they slide off the top. Also, I wish that I could adjust the temperature on all modes.

Good Washer

I bought the washer a month ago. It works well and is very quiet. One complaint is the glass door and panel are black making it difficult to view the controls.
