What people are saying

Rated 1 out of 5 by from I HATE THIS MACHINE! It doesn't clean! I don't understand how anyone can love this product. 2.5 hours to wash one load of cottons (no matter the size of the load), does a poor job of cleaning, and doesn't rinse throughly--HOW is this "energy saving"? The mold problem is absolutely disgusting!

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Too much maintenance This washer has to be THOROUGHLY AND DEEP CLEANED way to often! I am constantly draining and cleaning the filter weekly along with tub cleaning with products and vinegar to combat the mold that grows in the front rim! I spend more time and energy cleaning the washer than I do doing laundry!

what dryer would match this

Asked by: andyk49916
The matching dryer for the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 4.3 cu. ft. Ultra-Large Capacity with NFC Tag On Technology, Model # WM3170CW was the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 7.4 cu. ft. Ultra Large Capacity Electric Dryer w/ NFC Tag On Technology, Model # DLE3170W and the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 7.4 cu. ft. Ultra Large Capacity Gas Dryer w/ NFC Tag On Technology, Model # DLG3171W. Both those dryers are discontinued dryers, but any of our current 27" 7.4 cu. ft. Smart wi-fi Enabled Electric Dryer with Sensor Dry Technology or 7.4 cu. ft. Smart wi-fi Enabled Gas Dryer with Sensor Dry Technology or 7.3 cu. ft. Electric/Gas Dryers with Sensor Dry Technology will match the washer...^IFV

What is de2 code

Asked by: Elijahsamuel22
We regret the trouble you have experienced with this washing machine. The dE2 code denotes a door error. It is recommended to check the door seal and door frame for obstructions. Be certain that the door is completely closed, locked and free from clothing or other items. Once this has been checked, if the error still occurs, then the washer may require service. To make service arrangements, you may either contact our Customer Interactive Center at 800-243-0000, or you can check our Repair Provider Lookup on our website, at http://www.lg.com/us/support/repair/support-repair-provider-lookup.jsp.

i used the Smart diagnosis feature on my smart phone and said I need to run bucket sterilization cycle. I only see a tub clean cycle, is that the same thing?

Asked by: mike2552
