New and confusing

This dryer is delightfully large; dries just as hoped; have only a few questions: why won't the door stay open so I can move clothes from washer with both hands? why is the top slanted instead of flat which eliminates one of my main sorting spaces in my pantry? and, most importantly, why did I have to call your 800 number in order to get a real operating manual, because what comes with the dryer installation is worthless.

Hello, Mary! We appreciate your fantastic 5‑star review of your LG dryer! It’s great hearing that the large capacity and strong drying performance are hitting the mark for you. The questions you raised are thoughtful ones — the door design is meant to prevent it from swinging freely during loading, and the slanted top is part of the dryer’s styling and safety design. We're also glad you reached out for the full LG operating manual, since having the complete guide makes exploring all the features much easier! For more feedback or questions, please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. Thanks for choosing LG! #LifesGood ^James

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.

Solid dryer but only opens left to right

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The dryer works well but never thought it would be such an ordeal to switch the door and would probably not buy again as it has been such a pain in the rear, lots of calls and still no switching of the door.

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.

No right side vent for gas models- stupid design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I searched specifically for dryers with side venting and when I went to install it, I found that gas models don't support right side venting. Not only that, but the gas line sticks out at the bottom right by 3", so I also can't rear vent and turn right with the pipe, which is the way I need to go. And even if the vent went somewhere else, I can't push the dryer up against the wall because the gas line sticks out so far rather than being mounted at an angle, or at least cut back closer to the back of the unit. I haven't been able to use it because I need to build some crazy venting contraption to hook it up.

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!

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.

Large capacity/dries fast

Bought LG dryer about a month ago with washer. Once I was shown how to use the timer option I love using my dryer. Dries quickly with this option. Very roomy. Not fond of the lint trap as it's a little bit of trouble to clean out but getting used to it. All in all very pleased!! Definitely recommend!

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!
