Small Load Option Useless
When I choose the small load option it will set to 30 minutes. However after about 2 minutes it shuts off. I read something about the dryer sensor can not sense the small amount of clothes or something like that. In the manual it says the small load option is for up to 3 items. Well then what is the point of the small load option if you need to fill up the dryer with more items for the sensor to work?! Also I haven't been able to get the wifi feature to work. The washtower looks good but for the cost I am not overly impressed with this unit so far.

Not cleaning
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Adds about one quart of water the whole wash cycle I use very little soap. One tablespoon ..and the soap never comes out. I add 3 extra rinses and it still has soap in it. No matter the size of the load
Hi there! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand how frustrating it must be to deal with soap residue in your WKGX201HBA washer, especially when you've already adjusted the amount of detergent and added extra rinses. This is certainly not the performance you should expect from your washer. Please send us a private message via @LGUSSupport, and our team will assist you in troubleshooting the issue to find a solution. Your feedback is important to us, and we want to help ensure your washer performs as it should.—Junel
What a waste
This unit seems to have the ability to wash and dry well. It lacks any semblance of user control to truly maximize any of its potential. The default settings are a joke. Even worse, the lack of customization of its app settings is even worse. For the amount of money spent on this unit, I am completely dumbfounded on the lack of control I have over it. Almost every piece of clothing, blanket, or other item we buy today, has one simple instruction; machine wash cold and tumble dry low. This doesn't change based on how heavy duty or heavily soiled the load is. I feel completely ripped off having bought this unit for the money. LG needs to add a fully customizable cycle to its app. Until such time, nobody in their right mind should consider buying this over priced under productive device.

Dryer:additional parts needed during installation?
I have purchased the WKGX200HWA and it will soon be delivered. I was reading the INSTALLATION manual and it indicated the DRYER requires a DRAIN HOSE & CONNECTING SUPPLY HOSE that are NOT supplied. Is this true? If yes, what are the specifications/part numbers for these items?
Hi there. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand that you're preparing for the delivery of your LG washer/dryer combo model WKGX200HWA and have questions about the required drain hose and connecting supply hose mentioned in the installation manual. Yes, it is true that the dryer requires a drain hose and connecting supply hose that is not supplied with the unit. For the drain hose, you will need a standard dryer drain hose compatible with your model. The connecting supply hose for the water inlet is typically a standard washing machine supply hose. The part numbers for these items are AEM73732901 for the drain hose and 5215ER2002G for the water supply hose. These parts can be purchased from LG's official website or authorized retailers.

Excellent product
I LOVE this system. The turbo wash makes it quicker to wash. The machine is not loud. It is a perfect size for my husband and I and all of the blankets we use for our two large dogs. I was disappointed when my washing machine died but now I’m glad it did. The unit is so much better than my prior washer dryer
Doors not Reversible!!!!!
This set was delivered to me yesterday and look very nice. I’m sure they’re going to work great. But the door is not reversible. The specs say it is, but is not. I chatted with LG Chat team 3 times. 1st time , lady couldn’t help and got disconnected. 2nd time- guy said it was reversible but no how-to instructions were given. After looking and trying to see if it was reversible, I chatted a 3rd. time and a lady said they’re Not Reversible. All other washer/dryers I’ve owned in the past have had reversible doors. I’m really surprised LG didn’t give this option on this set. It’s a little frustrating because of my laundry room set up, now doors will always be on my way while doing laundry. I did not get to see these displayed on the floor at the store. These were shown to me on a store computer screen. They looked very nice and sleek so I bought them. But the door swing is my frustration. SO BUYER BEWARE! Study the door swing and make sure it works for your laundry room set up before you buy these.
Doesn’t wash at all. Barely gets clothes wet
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never ever write bad reviews but I was trying to give this machine a chance. We bought it in 2021 so at first thought it was user error. This machine barely provides any water even on the heaviest setting and constantly collects the dirt and scum in the lining of the machine it’s actually disgusting! I want problem to know how awful this is
Hey there! Thanks for sharing your LG Washtower experience with us. Keeping your laundry routine quick, easy, and clean is crucial, so we'd love to help! If you find that your wash cycles aren't providing enough water, we recommend trying the Extra Rinse or Pre-Wash functions. While these may not add additional water to your cycle, this can still help by ensuring the removal of detergent after a cycle—along with the improved cleaning of heavily soiled or stained clothing. You can find out more about these functions on page 44 of your owner's manual. If you find that the gasket lining of your washer builds up grime and dirt over time, it's possible the type of detergent used may be affecting the cycle. This LG Washtower is rated for HE detergents only, so we recommend using a compatible detergent type. Using non-HE detergents may result in the build-up of suds, grime, and dirt over time.

Favorite Washer and Dryer!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a 70 year old woman who has had a multitude of washers and dryers through my life - this is hands down my favorite washer and dryer ever! First, it looks like a million dollars (I ordered the black steel color). It is so sleek and elegant. Love the all digital controls in the middle. The capacity is larger than my previous full sized name brand stackables. I really appreciate the quiet operation since the unit is located in an open area right off my bedroom. The controls are very intuitive - I never had to read the instruction manual. Also, the washer can handle the tiniest load and still spin out all the excess water. I can't say how often I had to remove still dripping wet clothes from my previous washer because it was incapable of balancing small loads! It does a great job of washing and drying. Couldn't be any more pleased with it - GREAT DESIGN!!!
HORRIBLE - WORST LG PURCHASE I HAVE MADE
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is no way to customize your washing and drying needs. The dryer mode either doesn't dry (ends the cycle early) OR it over dries. On the washer mode, most cotton or light weight clothes get extremely wrinkled (due to the advanced default spinning cycle) and they are permanent wrinkles and now I have to iron out everything. I HATE this unit.

Machine controls you!
Just bought this combo in order to save space. It washes and dries well. It does not allow choices, which had I known, I would have not chosen it. I use cold water for most washes; the only way I can get cold water is to wash everything as delicate. A normal load is only washable with hot water and hot dryer. If you are shopping, pay attention to features. Wish I had.
We would love an opportunity to help, however we need to move to a platform that supports back and forth messaging. Please send us a private message on Facebook or Twitter using @LGUSSupport and include #VOC, your contact info and model # and we would be happy to troubleshoot the issue or set up repair if needed. Thanks. ^Sandy
