LG QuadWash

The LG Quadwash XD3A25BS is the best dishwasher we've owned. No more rinsing plates before washing, it is whisper quiet (so much so you have to put your ear down to it to make sure it's on) and it dries plastics - yes that's right on the extra dry cycle (which we use all the time) everything comes out dry! Hard caked on cooking comes off with a breeze - sooo happy! The drawers are a bit flimsy compared to say the Asko which is a bit of a disappointment, but the versatility to move the drawers up and down and also the prongs on the bottom drawer...Read more

At first, i would have given this a 5 star review. This machine did an absolutely fantastic wash, but now it has failed twice with the same issue. The problem lies in the Heater unit, wich on these is all apart of the same assembly with the wash pump, heater unit and motor. LG took 3 weeks to get the part to the repairers, and then was still a few days after that to get it back. It worked fine for 3.5 weeks and now has failed again with the same HE error. LG are abismal to deal with on the phone, there is no care or consideration for you as a c...Read more

It's been 133 years since the first dishwasher patent was issued. It's been 40 years since I purchased my first dishwasher, (Phillips) lasted 18yrs, so I'm amazed that a company, any company can successfully dump (not just LG) equipment on the unsuspecting masses, it doesn't wash, it barely dries, unless you pay extra electricity, the logic of fitting an umpteen dinner setting is ok, heaven forbid if there's is only two of you, dinner, breakfast, snack, and if you use an oven pan, garlic press and two sets of tongs and normal soft drink glasse...Read more

After reading all the other reviews on here it became clear that some "owners" of this dishwasher either haven't read the manual, haven't done their homework, or don't really own this machine.

So, to clarify:

The "monstrosity" on the end of the inlet hose is the anti-flood device which shuts off the water supply to the dishwasher in the event of something going wrong with the hose / dishwasher. ALL dishwashers from mid-range upwards have some sort of version of this feature, and they are ALL about the same size - I know, I checked in the show...Read more

I purchased this dishwasher after our Fisher and Paykel one failed, it was 18 years old ( was already in our house when we purchased). I actually wanted the Fisher and Paykel dishdrawer initially as I was sick and tired waiting for old dishwasher to be full to run. When I went to shop the salesman directed me this machine as it has half loads you can do, so if their is not enough to do full loads you can do half loads.
I also can put cutlery basket anywhere I want and fold out half the bottom rack to fit bulky items.
All the plates and ever...Read more

Being an LG fan (owning TVs, Fridge, Microwave Oven, Air Conditioners etc.) I went straight to the LG dishwasher. Well priced. Looks good. Features are great. But it simply doesn't wash dishes. The "Turbo" cycle which runs for 100 minutes didn't even remove ice-cream from a bowl. The only way to get dishes reliably clean is to run the "Intensive" program that lasts an incredible 192 minutes! However, it still struggles to clean even mildly dirty pots and pans.

I have reported this to LG, who sent a technician to examine it. He found no ma...Read more

Now I should probably start by saying that I am a bit of an LG fan. I absolutely love all of my LG products, so when it come to buying a Dishwasher, it was a no brainer.

On installing the Dishwasher, I must say I was a little disappointed at the abomination they have attached to the end of the Water inlet hose. Unlike a normal inlet hose, the LG Dishwasher has a great big Plastic device that cannot be detached during installation. This means that you have to cut out massive holes in your kitchen cabinets, just to get the hose connected. Why o...Read more

My original review was high praise for a good looking dishwasher that matched our new fridge. Having owned it for a bit, I am updating my review to say that we are so disappointed. This dishwasher does not wash dishes. It takes way too long and it doesn't dry anything. More seriously, the cutlery drawer concept does not work. Unless you very carefully place each piece, tip the spoons face down and top and tail forks, none of these will be clean. Who has time for that?
The controls are non-intuitive and confusing. We have only ever used one fac...Read more

Purchased LG Inverter Direct Drive dishwasher to replace my old dishlex. It washes the dishes well particularly my heavy stained slow cooker bowl, however a lot more moisture is left on the walls etc at the end of the wash than my old dishlex. I have only run it on turbo extra dry to date. I do not find the collapsible plate holders easy to configure and the cutlery basket gets put all over the place and never sits well no matter where I place it on the bottom rack. The top rack also I find it hard to sit container lids and plastics due to ...Read more
