Does just what I need!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the LG Washer WT8205CW since we received it and it has made laundry noticeably easier. The large capacity is great for bigger loads, and everything comes out consistently clean and well rinsed. It runs quiet which I really appreciate, especially during longer cycles. The controls are simple to understand, and the washer automatically adjusts the load, which saves time and water without me having to do anything. It also stays stable during the spin cycle and feels very well . The Wifi is also a nice option so i can control the washer with my phone. Overall the Lg washer WT8205CW has been a great upgrade for my home. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a washer that performs well and simplifies everyday laundry.

Quite and efficient

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) This washing machine is spacious and modern. It features Bluetooth connectivity, allowing you to control it from your phone. The digital interface makes operation effortless, and it runs very quietly. The only downside is the agitator—it isn't very powerful and the spin cycle isn't as effective as I'd like.

Super easy to use and cleans clothes really well

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Another great LG appliance! This washer hits the sweet spot with a powerful agitator and a shallow enough drum that you don't need to be a gymnast to reach the bottom. The capacity is a game-changer, easy maintenance, getting phone alerts when the laundry is done and being able to download custom cycles makes it feel truly high-tech. Reliable, user-friendly, modern, and has less water wastage.

Energy efficient and high tech

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) This washer was a great value and it looks really modern and high tech compared to my old one. There are many different settings and it is energy efficient which is wonderful as I am looking to have lower bills! Installation was easy and the display is clear and straightforward. I downloaded the LG app on my phone and can see how many minutes are left in the cycle without having to go down into my basement to check.

Massive, quiet washer with a strong spin.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) The drum is huge and fits an extraordinary amount of laundry. It’s also extremely quiet, I honestly had to check to make sure it was running. Setup was very easy and balancing was not a problem. Vibration has been almost nonexistent and the spin is strong. I couldn’t get the test cycle to work, but my first real wash went well and everything came out very clean. I also noticed the spin cycle pulls more water out than my previous washer, which is a bonus. The downside is the “smart” setup, I had difficulty getting the Wi-Fi and app connection working and I still haven’t been able to complete it. The manual also seems a bit incorrect for my model. Great washer for capacity and quiet performance.

Thank you for the great feedback! We’re thrilled you're enjoying the massive capacity and quiet, vibration-free performance of your new washer. To help with the LG ThinQ setup, please ensure you are connecting to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network, as most smart appliances do not support 5GHz. For step-by-step assistance with the app or the test cycle, please call us at 1-888-542-2623 (Mon–Sun, 8 a.m.–9 p.m. ET). We’d love to help you get fully connected!

Not a great washer

I purchased the WT8205CW 3 months ago. There's NO delicate cycle, I cannot choose the water level like low, medium or high. Some computer genius thought the machine should choose that for me. There's NO soak cycle and some times my clothes are so filthy that I need an aggressive agitation cycle which doesn't exist on this machine. Overall, save your money and buy washer that has more versatility and flexibility with it's use and features. I'm selling my 8205 and buying a different brand. I am so very unhappy with this machine.

LG is the brand to buy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this new LG washer. We have had several other LG appliances and have always been satisfied with them. My wife loves this washer because it has an agitator (our previous washer didn't) and it's not too deep so she can reach small items, like socks, on the bottom. It has Wi-Fi and works with the LG app, so you get notified on your phone when a wash is complete. You can also download extra wash cycles that aren't available on the front panel and send them to the washer, a cool feature that we have used more than once already.

dispenser tray stays full of water

Washer works ok but dispenser tray is full of water after each cycle and must be cleaned. I have tried to resolved this with LG, first they said I had an "old design" tray and sent a new one. The new one is the same as the old one LG tech then said it was working as designed.

Goodbye Front Loader!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The LG WT8205CW washing machine is an upgrade from my previous front load LG washer. I was tired of having to clean out the front and wanted to go back to a top loader. Let me just say that this washer is superior. The control panel is simple, yet stylish. It offers so many wash options. The design of the unit makes it easy and accommodating to reach in to pull clothes out. The lid is a SlamProof lid, which is great when you have children in the house. The washer isn’t loud, at most you can hear the water filling up. It has a 4.8 cu. ft. capacity, which means large loads are possible. Another great thing is that it has a 4-way agitator that moves clothes up, down, left and right. You can also choose the deep fill option to add extra water, or keep it at the high-efficiency level. This is a plus for large loads. If you want to get the most out of your washer, you can download the LG ThinQ App. It is so helpful to be able to see on the time the washer has left without having to get up to look. If I am downstairs, I most likely won’t hear the musical timer go off. There are more features on the app. Check it out!
