The WT8405CW is a Consumer Reports Recommended washing machine
Say never again to never-ending piles of laundry—this mega capacity washer fits more clothes in every load and helps you power through laundry day in less time. With 6.1 cu. ft. capacity, you can fit a king-size comforter and more in a single load, for big time savings every week. Get the room and flexibility to clean in fewer loads.
Specially designed fins create a unique 4-way wash action that moves clothes left and right, up and down for a thorough clean that’s still gentle on clothes.
Maximize Your Wash Motions with 4-Way Agitator
The key to our EasyUnload™ design is hidden beneath the sleek glass lid. We’ve angled the washer front for a more comfortable, ergonomic reach. Now you can easily retrieve stray items from the bottom of the tub—with no sacrifice in capacity. Pair it with an LG dryer that has the 2-way LG EasyLoad™ door and seamlessly transfer clothes from washer to dryer and dryer to basket.
*Based on independent testing in normal cycle with TurboWash™ Option, 8lb. Load (January 2022).
Forget about endless sorting or toggling through cycles—built-in sensors use AI technology to detect fabric texture and load size, then automatically select the right wash motions, temperatures and more for advanced fabric care. With Smart Pairing™, the washer can even tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle*, making it the ultimate laundry hack.
*Based on internal testing in normal cycle, with an 8 lb. load (December 2023).
Powerful Yet Gentle Clean In 29 MA in*
A powerful jet spray, plus the tub and motor that rotate independently and in opposite directions, creates a powerful water flow that causes garments to rub against each other throughout the cycle for enhanced washing performance.

What is AI DD™ in a smart LG washing machine?
LG’s AI DD™ washing machines utilise intelligent technology to individually analyse the weight and fabric type of your laundry. The result? Your machine automatically optimises the washing motion, leading to enhanced fabric protection and ensuring your cherished clothes look their best for longer. The DirectDrive™ Motors provide 6-motion technology for an effective wash with fewer moving parts, resulting in a more durable performance.
How do I install a washing machine?
To install your washing machine, begin by ensuring you have a suitable location with access to water, drainage, and a power outlet. Carefully remove all packaging and transport bolts from the machine. Position the washing machine on a level surface to prevent vibration during operation. Connect the water inlet hose to the tap, ensuring it is securely fastened, and attach the drain hose to your plumbing system. Plug the machine into a grounded power socket. Once everything is connected, run a test cycle to check for leaks or issues. For more detailed instructions, please refer to the YouTube link we have prepared for you.
