Best LG Front Loading Washing Machines

What a disaster purchase. Right from the first wash it ripped my bedsheets, the next load it proceeded to fray the clothes being washed and if you… Read more

were game enough to wash them a second time they would come out stretched and paper thin, a lot of the time with multiple rips, holes or even shredded from being stretched to the maximum. For the next few months I tried every cycle, using the lowest spin (400) and the lowest temperature - I tried small loads, big loads, medium sized loads but every wash (even the delicate cycle) had the same result. LG garment care factor = NIL. Even though it was still under warranty (6 months old) neither LG customer service or Harvey Norman wanted to know or assist, insinuating user fault. I never received a single call back from LG or Harvey Norman at any time during my dealings with these disgraceful organisations. NEVER again will I have an LG product in my house or step foot in a Harvey Norman store again after being treated so appallingly and spoken down to by the HN department manager when I dare question the delivery/installation procedure as a possibility for damage in transit. I thought it was reasonable to at least look into it because when I requested the installers leave me the travel bolts they said this machine doesn't come with any. The HN dept mgr rejected any such possibility with the reason being that travel bolts can only be used once, they are not reuseable and if I should ever need to move the machine I should just fill up the drum with clothes. Well, that excuse was an insult to my intelligence and should be a huge red flag to the Harvey Norman franchise, and it was the final straw for me. My last contact he promised to phone me back in 20 minutes with an update - that was 5 days ago...... some things just don't change.

We have had this washing machine for 2 years, started having issues with mold on the seal and brown paste appearing on clothes after wash, i… Read more

complained to LG and the response i received that it was not a warranty fault but user error, even though we regularly ran the drum cycle (more than recommended), the photos are of the seal that i replaced, the brown paste (scrud, LG called it) , is impossible to clean, as it is behind the seal, which you don't have access to, so cannot clean. Even replacing the seal wash a mission (i am quite handy), you have to nearly dismantle the whole machine, i have never had this issue with any other washing machine design, and would definitely not recommend to buy an LG machine, and the support was not helpful and basically said it was not covered under warranty even though we used it as recommended.

Everything I hoped it would be! – I purchased this front loader to replace a Miele that had died. I did a lot of research on the internet comparing brands and features and the LG… Read more

WV7-1409W stood out amongst the reviews. And I am not disappointed. I've only had it for a few weeks but have washed multiple loads on different cycles and it is everything it claims to be. I hate front loaders because of the long wash cyles but am limited to having one because of the design of our laundry. However this machine has a 59 min cycle that cleans well and it also allows me to pause and open the door (as long as it's before the spin cycle) so that I can throw in that second sock that always gets overlooked. It does a great job and is quiet. It beats Miele hands down on performance and price. I definately recommend this machine.

started leaking EVERYWHERE in the first 2 weeks of purchase. out of the detergent drawers. Customer support and repairs are a NIGHTMARE to deal with… Read more

too and it took us weeks to get fixed. Will never buy lg again seriously impressed by how theyre allowed to sell this garbage. Worst experience EVEVER

I bought this machine in December last year roughly 4months ago and its already have been having issue. When you use dryer function, It would… Read more

overheat, and machine would stop with error sign. We got it fixed and found out it overheat even when the machine is not working so have to turn it off all the time. but still having the same issue again after got it fixed. I’m waiting for a resolution but both the retailer shop and LG making me just wait. Its been almost a month since the machine playing up and I’m surprised I still haven’t got a replacement when its clearly faulty machine.

This is the worst washing machine I ever brought in my life. Not washing cloths well full of stain on cloths after washing. Worst washing machine ever

Washing machine started leaking from the water inlet to the washing machine just before the warranty ran out. We contacted LG to claim on the… Read more

warranty who sent out a technician and were told it was our fault due to chemical damage as there was rust around the water inlet. I have no idea how this is our fault as we don't have any chemicals coming from our tap water. LG have hand balled the phone calls we have made for the last 4 weeks trying to get this sorted out. We will never buy anything LG from now on as their warranty isn't worth the paper it's written on. I have learnt you get what you pay for and I would suggest everyone else do the same and don't waste your money on LG rubbish.

Washes well, but user interface is confusing – It's okay, but not great. It's difficult to figure out what the wash cycles actually do. If you wan't to make your own cycle, you need to make it… Read more

online, then download it. Maybe if the manual was a little more user friendly, I might have had more luck with the user interface.

Not good for delicates. Ok for the bed linen – Very rough on clothes. Cycles are automated. I don’t recommend this washer. Show details

I bought an LG washing machine — my first LG product — and I’m honestly stunned by how bad the experience has been. The machine takes 3 hours and 58… Read more

minutes to wash a single load. Nearly four hours. Even when the drum is empty. I contacted support, thinking something must be wrong. But after multiple calls, I was told — repeatedly — that this is normal. Operators tried to justify it with vague explanations about AI and fabric types, but no one could explain how an empty load ends up taking nearly five hours. And then there’s the on-hold music. Ten straight minutes of high-pitched distortion that literally makes your phone speaker crackle. It’s unbearable. I’m convinced it’s designed to make frustrated customers hang up. It’s not just bad — it feels intentional. But it gets worse. They asked me to send a video showing the full cycle — from start to finish — but it must be under 20MB. That’s nearly impossible using standard methods. How are you supposed to show a 4:58 cycle in a file that small? And if that’s not enough, they also require: A receipt The model number And the video must be sent by email only — no upload portal, no support ticket attachment. It honestly feels like they’ve pulled out all the stops to make the process as difficult as possible. Every step seems designed to frustrate and wear you down. This isn’t just a product issue. It’s a customer experience failure. I expected innovation. I got confusion, wasted time, and a support system that feels more like a deterrent than a help. Respect goes both ways, LG. Right now, you’re not holding up your end.

The finish sound is long, loud and obnoxious, and cannot be turned off. Others might only knock off one star but it makes me rage so much every time… Read more

it wakes my baby I had to knock off all of them. The app never worked, all they said was soz we're working on it. If you're thinking of buying it just don't, unless it will be living in a shed far away from your house or something.

On 02/06/2022, I purchased washing machines from Harvey Norman watergardens . "I am extremely disappointed with the quality of LG washing machines.… Read more

After just a couple of years of normal use, the rubber seal is completely worn out and damaged. This clearly points to the use of cheap, low-quality materials. To make matters worse, instead of taking responsibility, LG blames us. This is unacceptable for a brand that claims to offer high-quality appliances. I expected durability and reliability, but unfortunately, this product failed to meet even the basic standards. This product is digital machine and do all the job so if it's overloaded as they assuming this machine will never work and if it couldn't handle the work properly that's meant it's completely faulty. I understand that under the Australian Consumer Law, when I buy products and services, they come with automatic guarantees that they will work and do what I asked for.

I have a GST tax invoice as a proof of purchase.

I sent them requesting a repair since January till now they didn't reply. My duty of care now to warn everyone to purchase this item from LG which never care about their customers . Not recommended at all
