A high tech, high capacity cleaning machine!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Overall, I am very happy with this washer that I received at a discount. It is so quiet, which I hope you can tell from the video. The remote phone option is interesting, but I'm not sure how often I would use it. I used a minimal amount of detergent and my clothes came out very clean on the first wash. I truly cannot believe how huge the drum is! I placed in my clothing and both of my daughter's clothing, plus a few items of my husbands and well it looked to be right at the fill line, once the water filled up we could've easily fit in a few more items if we needed to. I suspect this machine will cut down my loads per week in half, which I am thrilled about. The only minor complaint I have is that some of the clothes nearest to the agitator seemed to just be wrapping and unwrapping around it, so I'm not sure if that's normal or if there is a setting I need to adjust so that the entire wash basin spins more as well. Overall, this is a huge upgrade from our last machine and we are very happy with the opportunity to try it through Influenster.

Thank you for sharing your experience with your WT8205CW washer! We’re thrilled to hear you’re enjoying the quiet operation, large drum capacity, and excellent cleaning performance. Regarding clothes wrapping around the agitator, this can sometimes happen with certain load types. Using the appropriate cycle and load distribution usually helps ensure everything moves freely during the wash. Should you ever have questions or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out. You can contact us at 1-888-542-2623 from Monday–Sunday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern Time, or online here: • https://www.lg.com/ca_en/support/contact-us/ Thank you for choosing LG Electronics!

Pleased with my selection

So far so good. Did a lot of research before deciding on the LG WT8205CW, a top load with agitator. I had a Samsung top load impellor for many years. I think the agitator cleans better. Clothes coming out cleaner.

All that research completely paid off, Maria! We are absolutely thrilled that your WT8205CW is giving your clothes the noticeably deeper, fresher clean you were looking for. Transitioning from an impeller washer back to a traditional agitator can be a big decision, but there's nothing quite like that classic cleaning power paired with LG's modern technology. We're so glad your new washer is already making a positive impression and earning your confidence with every load. Thank you for making the switch to LG! If you ever have any questions or need assistance, our LG CareQ team is always available at 1-888-542-2623, or via WhatsApp, live chat, or email through https://www.lg.com/ca_en/support/contact-us/. Enjoy your beautifully clean laundry, and thank you for choosing LG!

New LG washing machine is great!

I'm pleased with the performance of my new LG washing machine. It appears to do a good job of cleaning. I also like that it calculates the time for each load. Most of my loads have been less than 60 minutes. I'm impressed with that.

3 Weeks In - So Far So Good

LG washing machine

We have only done a couple of loads since getting this washer a few days ago. It is easy to use, very quiet and does a good job cleaning our clothes.

Awesome machine for a family!

I love this machine. It's massive and can wash a lot, cleans well and runs a pretty quick cycle. Only dropping a star as it doesn't have a delicate cycle (you have to download it and use from LG app).

Issue

Okay , I did not realize the washer is registered . The Dryer wouldn't work so I looked in the manual and the "Control lock was on ". After reading thru the manual i was able to rectify the problem. I have no idea why or how the control lock was on. I also have a washer that for some reason I could not register but will try again. The washer so far works just fine,

Would not recommend

This is the worst washer I've ever had! When I wash on cold it doesn't fill with enough water so my soap doesn't dissolve fully and it leaves white spots on my clothes. This happens with powder, pods, and liquid soap! The only feature that I can use is the quick wash and I have to use deep fill which uses more water than I probably need. I also do not have a soak feature! I tried to pause it and let my stuff soak and it restarted on its own. So I tried to pause it and open the lid and after a couple minutes it drained with the lid open. I wasted soap and this thing has wasted my time and energy. I have to rewash things and use more water than I nee. It's costing me more money and it's supposed to be energy efficient. I do not recommend this product. Also the spin shakes the machine on anything higher than the 2nd setting and it's a fairly loud machine.

The soap dispenser was clogged and there is a musty smell. I had to call for repair. The soap dispenser was fixed but there is still a musty smell.
