I have this dryer and have had to run it through twice on every load I dry. We are a family of 6 so our loads are big all the time. I work full time so a dryer is essential. I use mixed to dry as usually there are jeans, T-shirts and socks in every load. We also do smaller loads and still have the same issues. We have used eco mode and very dry with the same results. I am so frustrated and feel the $2000 we spent at the time for a bigger dryer (we have a big washer as well) is more costing than efficient and time consuming rather than dependable, you can’t rely on it being dry first time, every time. Hubby hooked it up to water and we use the draining hose. We have had it looked at once as the filter clean is always up at the start of each load and it was affected by the humidity we were experiencing at the time. He did nothing as he said it was working normally and as it should from using the smart phone diagnostics. I feel like I need an instructor to use this and get the positive results others in your posts are talking about.

Does the dryer need water to run or can it run without water?

The dryer needs water to run. LG supply a double connector to attach to the laundry tap so the dryer and the washing machine can be connected to the same tap. Water also needs to drain from a draining hose that can be drained into a sink or the same drain outlet as the washing machine or if the draining hose isn't used then there is a drawer that needs to be emptied after every drying cycle.

I haven't hooked mine up to water and it operates AOK. I also don't use the drain hose so have to manually empty the water tank every week or so. So basically it operates as a stand alone unit with no external connections bar power.

We purchased the td c902h dryer a few days ago but are increasingly concerned that the sensor does not work properly??. Damp clothing in small loads and large loads. Running forever and not stopping, bearing no relationship to listed eco times. Checked all listed causes and can see no problems unfortunately. Any ideas?

Hi, I could only stand the problems with this dryer for a week. Luckily Appliances Online were very helpful to helping me upgrade to a Miele. There are heaps of bad reviews when you start looking. I did purchase an LG washer and dryer and had to return both. Miele brands were dearer but well worth it. I have had a lot of LG products but the laundry items ar letting them down. Hope you have a good outcome

We read the poor reviews but my husband insisted he wanted the lg and now I am not sure????. All the dryers had bad reviews.. Did ok in consumer magazine. I wonder if it is a 'climate,' problem lots of heat but not fully dry and then running for say 4 hours plus just for a, finish off drying medium load off the clothes line?????. Can't be good economy and then I just have to turn it off myself. I think it might run for days if I left it and still be damp????..

I've had problems with loads not being fully dry when using the automatic sensor - however, I will say that I have also experienced this with both other inverter dryers and standard dryers. I find that when I set it to "very" dry instead of "cupboard" or "ironing" it gets much closer to fully dry. I generally need to give it another fifteen-twenty minutes after the standard time runs out. This doesn't bother me - perhaps because I've always had this issue no matter the brand of dryer and so don't know any better.

It does run for a long time - up to three hours for a load of towels. Again, this doesn't really bother me because the energy rating of the dryer is such that I haven't noticed a difference in the electricity bill since we've had it...and we use it upwards of twenty hours a week.

If I set it to cupboard dry it just runs on forever and may or may not be dry but NOT 30 minutes more how about 3 hours more and still running. I dread the LG 'runaround' including ridiculous questions followed by the manditary we will charge you, actually think I will try appliances online. No no it seems it will not end.......ever. Enough in it, yes definitely touching sensor. Put it on iron dry to test and ran about 10 minutes before stopping, happy with that because they are off the clothes line, very damp but definitely not dry. Then put it on cupboard dry and away it goes 2.5 hours and still running on a program say 1.10 minutes, may be damp i think, but still running and as usual I have to switch it off as this has been running non stop since I received it friday, it will not end and probably is still damp??. Gee 3 hours would be a bonus if it finished but no 5 hours and still running, with towels taken out of a brand new lg 8 kg 15oo rpm machine(actually they also had been on the clothes line drying so makes it even worse??). I'm not even convinced it's drying fully.....ever. Extra dry is also most certainly on the running forever(I mean forever not 3 hours, 5 hours and still running) list. It's a lovely machine and the washing machine is lovely but something is wrong, no point having a sensor if it refuses to work. I keep giving it the benefit of the doubt but it keeps failing!!!!.

The best selection is Mixed Fabric and in 90 minutes Cupboard dry you take the clothes out. They will feel moist but dry in minutes once taken out. This is still using the Eco setting, very quick. Our problem is the repeated repairs on a noisy drum bearing - time for refund!
