What You Need to Know about Washers

LG Design Philosophy for Washers

Design plays a critical role in harmonizing technology and human needs. At LG, we strive to make your life easier and more enjoyable by integrating our digital appliances into your lifestyle and home décor.

Our design philosophy boils down to four basic elements: Concept, Style, Interface, and Finish. By perfecting these elements, each of our digital kitchen appliances achieves LG’s goal of “great design.”

Emerging Needs

Technology is becoming an increasingly important tool in our modern lives. That’s why LG continues to focus on product research and design in order to make your life easier—and more fun.

Currently, a growing number of our products already come equipped with "intelligent" microchips and/or networking options. This area of technology, though still in its early stages, has great potential to transform the way we live and use appliances in our everyday lives. In order to predict and meet society’s emerging needs, our designers and engineers continue to invent and test new concepts.

Designing for the future

LG has always had their eye on the future. Nearly 20 years ago, LG founded the Life Soft Research Lab, and today our Corporate Design Center continues to experiment with new products and technologies. Our researchers, designers, and trend scouts work to predict the future by examining and identifying consumer needs; weighing the public's interest in products; and then developing concepts and solutions based on their findings. This allows LG to remain one step ahead of the game—always anticipating the needs of tomorrow.

LG Washer Designs

LG washing machines combine unique, innovative features with sleek and sophisticated styling, designed to fit your lifestyle and your décor.

Suitable for any floor of your house, LG washing machines come in a wide range of designer colors, including Wild Cherry Red and Graphite Steel (offering the look of stainless steel without its cost). They also come with optional, matching drawer pedestals for added height and tuck-away storage for detergent and other laundry items. And they come standard with large, chrome-rimmed, glass doors—some even square in shape, a unique feature to LG models—offering you easier loading and unloading.

Other helpful features on LG washing machines include an interior, white, LED tub light for extra visibility, and our (LCD or LED) Intelligent Electronic Controls which feature our Dial-A-Cycle function, allowing you to quickly set your cycle and go.

What’s a SteamWasher™?

The innovative LG SteamWasher™ uses real steam to give you enhanced cleaning performance that exceeds water alone.

How can steam penetrate more effectively than water? It’s surprisingly simple. The molecules of steam are smaller, hotter, and more active. So steam gets between fibers to dissolve dirt, remove odors, and destroy allergens. Steam also takes less time to do a better job, because it reaches higher temperatures more quickly.

What is TrueSteam™ technology?

LG’s revolutionary TrueSteam™ technology uses a real steam generator to convert water into steam that’s fed into the top of the wash-drum through a spray nozzle. Steam then penetrates the fabrics for enhanced cleaning performance—resulting in brighter whites and more vibrant colors.

What is the Allergiene™ Cycle?

The SteamWasher™ with LG’s exclusive Allergiene™ Cycle is the first washer certified “asthma and allergy friendly” by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA). The AllergieneTM Cycle is proven to remove 95% or more of household dust mites and domestic animal dander. It can be the answer to an allergen-sufferer’s dreams.

What is the SteamFresh™ Cycle?

LG’s unique SteamFresh™ cycle uses real steam to virtually eliminate wrinkles and odors, making your fabrics look fresh and new in just 20 minutes. This cycle is perfect for refreshing lightly-worn clothes at the end of the day, or for fluffing and refreshing towels and comforters.

What is TrueBalance™?

LG’s TrueBalance™ technology is an Anti-Vibration System that creates a quiet operation with reduced vibration and noise.

The Wash/Rinse Optimizer

The Wash/Rinse Optimizer is a special sensor designed to ensure optimal washing and rinsing performance by automatically adjusting wash- and rinse-cycle times.

Designer Colors

Depending on the SteamWasher™ model, these innovative machines are available in White, Pure Silver, Wild Cherry Red, and Stainless Steel—an array of options meant to match different design tastes.

Ultra-Capacity

The 4.5 cu. ft. Ultra-Capacity SteamWasher™ helps you wash more clothes in fewer loads.

SteamWasher’s Energy Savings Potential

The LG ultra-capacity SteamWasher™ is among the most water- and energy-efficient washers available today. ENERGY STAR®-rated by the U.S. government, the SteamWasherTM can save you more than $650, compared to traditional top-load washers, over its lifetime of use.

SteamWashers™ are 115% more efficient than the minimum federal standard, saving more than 8,000 gallons of water each year, as compared to traditional washers. It’s smart for your pocketbook and good for the environment.

Water Efficiency and Washers

The LG SteamWasher™ is an eco-friendly product that is designed to make efficient use of water and reduce energy consumption. The SteamWasherTM exceeds the U.S. government’s ENERGY STAR® standards for energy-efficient consumer products.

The LG SteamWasher™ has an ultra-large capacity that allows for more laundry in fewer loads, saving water and energy simultaneously. Combine that with water- and energy-saving steam technology, and you’re talking about a washing machine that reduces electricity consumption by 51% and water consumption by 44% compared to standard washers!

Why save water?

Due to our ever-growing population—both in the United States and around the world—demands on our water resources have increased. Here’s the good news: you can reduce your household’s water waste without reducing your activities or relied-on services. Installing high-efficiency appliances alone can cut indoor water use by about 30%, yielding substantial savings on your water and energy bills. Start saving today with an LG SteamWasher™.

A note from the U.S. Government’s Energy Star® website:

“Washers are the second largest water user in your home. If your clothes washer is old, you should consider replacing it with an ENERGY STAR qualified clothes washer. Most ENERGY STAR washers use 35 to 50 percent less water and 50 percent less energy per load. To save more water, look for a clothes washer with a low water factor. The lower the water factor, the less water the machine uses.”
