LG 8kg Heat Pump Dryer TD-H803CSW

5 Loads a week for 6 years and no issue yet! – Had this dryer since 2018 doing about 5 loads a week and it's still going strong - haven't had any issues with it. Saves loads of power compared to a normal dryer, and loads of time compared to hanging washing on the line (plus you don't have to worry about rain). Would highly recommend an LG dryer. Show details

This is not a Dryer it's an expensive paper weight – Bought this dryer 12 months ago worked for about 3 weeks the noticed the drying time taking longer and longer to the point that a simple load is now taking up to 8 hrs to dry....as per all the reviews don't bother with towels or sheets..step back in time and put those on the hills hoist....I am about to contact lg and request a refund it is that… Read more

bad and I though it would be good as the pigeon Pair....this reminds me about the Samsung fridge fiasco....Do Not BuY this Dryer

Worst Dryer Ever. LG Q Thin Inverter 8 kg Dryer – Timer keeps resetting with this dryer. After hours in the dryer your Clothes are still not dried. They are still damp. Do not waste your money on this dryer. I certainly would never buy this product again. Show details

If you plan on drying bedding, do not buy this dryer – Your bedding will end up in tight damp balls unless you are there to take the bedding out and untangle it every 10 to 15 min. I have owned other dryers including another heat pump and never had this problem. An expensive mistake Show details

Can't believe it – Had my 5yr old dryer serviced for the 3rd time in five years. After the technicians left today I thought I'd do a small wash and load my dryer. Put it to the normal setting let it run its course and my clothes were damp after a 50min cycle. So I had to start it again to get my clothes dry. I am so angry at the fact I waited for the who bottom… Read more

part of the unit which had to be replaced from my old one and its doing the same thing....NOT DRYING my clothes completely. Im over this Dryer and and im over in dealing with LG.

This is the slowest dryer ever – My dryer takes forever to dry can someone pls tel me the fastest cycle to dry clothes on please Show details

Worst Tumble Dryer I've Owned! – I agree with so many of the comments on here. Drying takes forever, I have 3 loads of washing waiting while it tackles the first load. Then the big items like sheets come out in a ball so tight I have to wrestle it loose. Paid so much and I wonder how energy efficient it is if it takes 4 times as long to dry a load??? Will never touch another heat pump dryer! :-( Show details

This dryer needs to "tumble" down a hill – The bad reviews are spot on. I wish I'd read them prior to buying this dryer. It does not dry sheets or towels. Everything is clumped into a tight ball and the dryer rotates the drum in one direction. This is a serious design flaw and I would argue doesn't do at all what it's supposed to do and that's dry... Literally hours and you'll find your sheets tightly wrapped in a balls, smelling damp and burnt at the same time. Show details

This has to be the worst dryer i have ever bought – To even dry a small load of washing you need to put 2-3 cycles on. Everything still comes out damp. Sheets come out in a tight ball. I love the lg washing machine but stay far far away from this dryer, i bought mine as a display model but still feel like i paid way too much for this piece of rubbish. Show details

Happy with the dry…except for the sheets – Well everything comes out dry, except for the sheets. We must be doing something wrong, but can’t figure out what. We now just put the sheets in on their own, in mixed setting. Every thirty minutes or so we go in, undo the tight ball bundle, and then put it back on. Without that it simply doesn’t dry the sheets. We are in Queensland so maybe it… Read more ·  2

is the humidity. We have never used a dryer before, we needed one for apartment living.

Apart from the sheets issue we are really happy with the wash. If anyone can explain the sheet situation we would be ecstatic

Love it – We use this for a variety of everyday clothes, work clothes, towels and bed linen. I’m very happy with the dryer, I most often dry clothes on the “mixed fabric” setting and everything is perfectly dry when I open the door. On the rare occasion I overload the clothes sometimes feel damp, however once out of the machine I give a quick shake and… Read more ·  1

they dry instantly - it’s like magic! I love the drying rack, it’s been used so often for shoes and special soft toys, and it handles delicate items such as wool jumpers beautifully on the delicates setting.

I find any sheets bigger than single will ball up and need to be shaken out halfway through to dry properly, although I have found this an issue across the board with dryers in general. Towels dry perfectly on the ‘Towels’ setting.

We have ours set up to drain the same way the washing machine does so there is no tray to empty, however I make sure to empty the lint filter after every use which is super easy and kind of satisfying.

It also has a great energy rating and costs hardly anything to run which was an amazing bonus! Probably my favourite feature

Quiet and Efficient Machine. It's a Lifesaver! – This dryer is brilliant and does not require your room to be ventilated. I thought emptying the water tank after each use would be a hassle but it's actually not and worth the benefit of a moisture free room. Highly recommend! Show details ·  1

Best purchase! Love this dryer – This dryer is so amazing, I wasnt sure if it was worth the extra money, however no regrets here!!! Very quiet and gentle on clothes. You won't regret this purchase. Show details ·  1

LG 8kg Heat Pump Dryer with Inverter DVH5-08W THE WORST DRYER EVER – We purchased this dryer (it wasn't cheap) and since the very first load regretted the purchase. We have a Airbnb business so sheets are our main items we wash and dry. The problem is the balling of sheets and after a ridiculous long few hours in the dryer the middle is still damp because of the balling. Frustrated I called LG and the lady was just… Read more

reading out the manual to me as a means of a way to fix it telling me that I just had to adjust the items throughout the drying time a few times, Ha thats pretty hard when you are at work! In the past I just place clothes in and set the timer then the clothes are dry after the specified time. Not this dryer! The salesman should have said "oh if you have a job away from your home then this dryer wont be a suitable choice for you as it only works if you adjust the load every 20 minutes" ( I wouldn't have purchased it) She also said I cannot return the dryer as its does not have manufactures fault (so in other words bad luck) LG has designed this dryer to rotate only one way and that is the problem when doing sheets. The sad part is we could have purchased 3 x cheaper dryers over the next 20 odd years for the same price and as in the past did the job I am used to " Drying sheets" I will never buy a LG brand again.

Expensive but worth it – Quite expensive but haven't noticed an increase on my electricity bill so the energy rating must be accurate. I put absolutely all my clothes in the dryer without worry. They do need an iron afterwards but could be due to the settings I use. Show details

best dryer I have owned – I am totally in love with this dryer! It looks stylish, is huge inside, with a light to see inside the drum and it has a double filter which is easy to clean (and a self cleaning condenser). It has 14 program settings, with one you can change with several different options on the LG smarthinq app. The wifi is amazing,I can check to see how long… Read more

its got to go, change cycles,remote start and even check the energy usage from my phone.It has a 9 star energy rating and we have noticed a difference in power consumption already, even though I have it going almost all the time.I have tried most of the programs now and every single one has worked perfectly.No damp spots, even on thick waistbands etc,everythig just comes out dry but not over dry so nothing shrinks or gets too hot.I have put things in this dryer that I would never have put in a dryer before with no problem at all.The towels are soft and fluffy and all the clothes come out looking great, especially with the anti crease function.The water canister is at the front and easy to empty and it comes with a rack for hats, shoes etc...I can honestly not fault this dryer at all and would definitely recommend-I even dried my king size doona! Worth every cent!

Love this – I use my clothes dryer daily as we don’t have a clothesline. The LG gets the job done quickly and our clothes come out wrinkle free meaning no ironing and leaves more free time the family

Saviour in Melbourne weather – This is the best appliance purchase for us in years to come. We recently moved to our new home. It's Melbourne winters & wet weather. I had pile of laundry collected over days- not drying as the sun wasn't out. We rushed to Good Guys in Springvale to buy a dryer. We chose LG heat pump as we have an LG washing machine. The dryyer has lived upto its… Read more

expectations. Sturdy, reliable & dries 100%. Only drawback takes 3 hours to completely dry. But is energy efficient. Highly recommend if you have kids

Fantastic economical dryer that is gentle on our clothes – We couldn't find a review for this dryer when we bought it so we were a bit apprehensive but it seemed to be an updated version of a different model. We've had it for three weeks now (after not having a dryer for almost 20 years) and we are thrilled with it. Once we got used to the settings we can now dry clothes quickly and they don't come out… Read more

damp at all. It uses very little electricity and fits on top of our 9 year old LG front loader washing machine. The heat pump technology is an absolute win - it cost a little more upfront but is much better for the environment and out power bills. It does ball up large sheets a bit (and traps smaller items inside which then stay damp - you could avoid this by only drying large items together) but we just either hang them on the line or untangle them half way through the dry. Overall we highly recommend this machine.

Edited 24/08/19 to say: One issue I can see now that I've had it for longer is that there is no real way to clean beneath the two lint filters. They are easy to clean but the reservoir beneath that is nearly impossible to get into but damp lint sits at the bottom which is a bit frustrating and I don't know how much this will be a problem over time.
