Customer reviews for LG 7.3 cu. ft. Electric Dryer with Sensor Dry forMember photos
TOTALLY AWESOME
I am very happy with both my LG washer and LG dryer! The clothes have never come out better in cleanliness and after dryer results--I've used most of the settings, from AI to specific and they've all been terrific--hopefully these will last me a lifetime--I'm VERY HAPPY with them!
Does a fine job and is Smarter than me
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased your washer almost a month ago. Easy to use (even if it is smarter than I), and does a very good job. I like the tune it plays at the end of the cycle: it is so much more pleasant than a sharp buzz.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using my LG top load washer and dryer for a while now. Im going on 60 days and I'm really happy with them! Here's why I think they're a great choice: Dryer: Easy-to-Clean Lint Trap: The lint container is super easy to access and clean. I love that I can get it 100% lint-free, which is great for keeping the dryer running efficiently and preventing fires. Even the slot where the container goes is a breeze to clean! Fast Drying Time: My clothes are always dry in under an hour, which is a huge time saver. Automatic Shut-Off: This is a fantastic feature! The dryer senses when the clothes are dry and shuts off automatically. Not only does this save energy, but it also gives me peace of mind knowing it won't overheat or potentially cause a fire. Washer: Large Capacity: I can easily wash my king-size comforter in this washer, which is a big plus. Efficient Soap Dispenser: I like how the washer sprays all the detergent from the dispenser directly onto the clothes, ensuring they get thoroughly cleaned. Quiet Operation: It's not a noisy machine, which is a nice change from my old washer. Versatile Wash Options: I can choose a deep wash for heavily soiled items or a water-saving wash for smaller loads, which is great for conserving water. Overall: I'm really impressed with the performance and features of my LG washer and dryer. They've made laundry day much easier and more efficient. If you're looking for a reliable and feature-rich laundry set, I highly recommend checking out LG Top Load DLE8400BE!

Large capacity, easy to load and unload
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the dryer. Super large capacity. Was easy to figure out the settings. The wrinkle care feature does work well and use it all the time. Another feature that l like is the reversible door, open the topside when loading from the washer so that the laundry doesn't fall on the floor and open the side way when unloading into a laundry basket.
Hi, Winne! We appreciate you sharing your experience with your LG Dryer. It’s great hearing how the large capacity, easy‑to‑use settings, and wrinkle care feature are all making laundry day smoother.

Excellent dryer, so smart, easy to use, very quiet
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have used dryer a couple of weeks & it's so smart, easy to use & quiet. The clothes are completely dry & not a wrinkled mess when done. The door can open side to side or from the top which is helpful when washing bid bulky items vs normal loads. Many options to choose from & shows time during each cycle. The one thing I'm not wild about is the top of the dryer is slanted, so stuff you put on top slides off.
Damp clothes constantly
It does have a big capacity, which is nice. We have had it for 6 months, and it has been very frustrating to get the clothes dry. I've tried every setting. The clothes are often slightly damp after every cycle, even with the heat and dryness setting all the way up. If I retry the cycle, it's sensors turn it off after a few minutes, even though the clothes are still slightly damp. The only way I can bypass this is by doing a "Quick Dry" cycle and turning the time up. The loads that aren't even very big are still coming out damp. I've checked and cleaned the vent hose and all filters, and there is no blockage. I've opened the door to the dryer and the door is covered in condensation still. Things should not still be so wet after drying at the highest setting for 1.5 hours. I've completely given up the hope of having a towel or blanket load dry fully in one go. I want hot, fluffy clothes, not cold, damp clothes. I don't have the time or energy to keep fighting with this thing.

The condensation and the need for timed cycles suggest the heating system or sensors may need a professional's attention. We want to help you get this resolved. Please send us a direct message to @LGUSSupport with your dryer's model/serial number and purchase date. We're committed to making sure your dryer is providing you with a great experience. ^ Diego
Not worth the money!
This gas dryer comes with the worst operator manual ever! The dryer comes with multiple settings that take more than one cycle to dry - the drying sensor is located in front so will shut off if it detects any semi-dry item. Repair person advised me not to use energy saver and use time dry only - could have gotten away with a much cheaper dryer if that was how I was going to use it! Disappointed!

does not dry!!!
Consumer Reports recommended this dryer, however, my clothes have not once dried, remaining damp when the damp cycle is at 0. Also, the controls are in black against black and are hard to read. This might be a dud washer or the operator is not cognizant on how to use this dryer. It would be nice to know how to operate this dryer so I don’t have to replace it.

Dryer is Nice
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this DLE8400WE to match the washer. My old LG combo W/D was over 15 yrs old and I was not satisfied with the seal inside my front loader. I could never get it cleaned always had black spots inside and outside the seal even if I cleaned it out. The smell inside the seal was really bad. The new dryer is really nice. It has electronic keypad and it’s easy to use. I like the newer update the dust container. We are happy on our purchase. Lg has been a good investment for us. Hopefully they will last a long time like our other combo.
Hey Rothy, thanks for sharing your experience with the DLE8400WE. It’s great to hear the upgrade has been such a positive change, especially after dealing with that old front‑loader seal. The updated lint container and easy‑to‑use electronic controls really do make a difference day‑to‑day. We’re glad this new setup has been a solid investment for you, and we hope it serves you just as long as your previous LG pair. #LifesGood ❤️ If you ever need support, feel free to email lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com.

Good Dryer, can't see the control panel too dim.
Control Panel is so dim that I am having to make labels so that we know what cycle to choose from. I've bought new lighting, turned off the lighting in the room; nothing helped it's just too dim. Dries very well but we cannot figure out what setting to put it on if we can't see the control panel. I would send back the washer and drier if they had a control panel that was printed.
