Awful machine for tangling clothes
In December 2020 I bought this machine new. Had I have known it tangles clothes so badly I wouldn't have considered it. It doesn't matter what water levels are set it does the same. Very disappointing. Be aware.

So far so good!
So far so good. I decided to use the washing for few months before making any previews. Easy to use, clean and its very quiet. This is the first time I bought an LG washing machine. Hopefully this one will last 10 years just like my Aldi washing machine.

Do Not Buy this Washing Machine!

Please see attached images of what my eight month old LG WTG7520 Washing Machine has done to our clothing.

2nd image - lint accumulation on dark clothing
3rd image - tea towel torn and smearing of some sort
4th image - smearing of some sort on light material
5th image - lint accumulation on dark clothing
Do not recommend this product.

Dont waste your money on this machine
Had my machine for about 2 years and have to say its the worst machine i have ever owned
Most washing comes out more dirty than it went in although lint filter is cleaned weekly
Currently looking at replacing with a different brand as sick of having to rewash clothes

Excellent family machine
This machine replaced a 20 yrs old Hitachi 6.5kg top loader machine. Love it almost identical machines, but with a better lint catching system. I am using the eco wash setting; washes well and performance excellent.

Not a fan
I previously had a Fisher and Paykel, which eventually died after almost 10 years. I was advised by someone that they weren't as good as they used to be. I don't know if this is true? It was a great little machine.
In contrast the LG is complicated to use, takes a long time for an ordinary wash (even the quick wash is 33 minutes), and I have to spin the clothes again at the end of the cycle as they are still very wet. The extra spin (on high) takes a further 15 minutes, and the clothes are still a lot wetter than with my Fisher and Paykel.

Washes items that tangle easily well but disappointed in reliability.
We use this washing machine to launder cafe aprons and tea towels , so not heavy items. It does this well as there’s no agitator to tangle aprons . But after 18 months level sensor failed. Disappointed.

Works great
This small yet powerful washing machine works great. I use it almost daily to do my washing which is usually pretty light. Occasionally it gets blankets. It handles it very well. The cycles are quite long but it does the job. I haven’t had any problems with it so far and hope it lasts for years to come.

great for small family
The old one finally broken down after many years. There was a 7.5kg LG washer on sales. but seems too big for a small family 2 people. This one the size is better and save some water.
Have been used for 3 weeks and no problem.
About $10 more expensive than the price on appliance online, but in Goodguy, at least can talk to some one and get some tips of choosing washer.
The delivery guys were in a rush, had to adjust the foot to make the machine more stable.
The lid made some noise when running, other than that, all good .

Fabulous machine
This machine is very quiet in operation, and virtually vibration free. A quick read of the well written owners manual, which is extremely easy to understand, and you're ready to load up. The fact that this machine has an inverter motor, with a TEN year warranty, certainly influenced our decision to buy, and we have not been disappointed by it's performance. After a few washes, using the same washing liquid as we did in our old machine, our towels are noticeably softer. Can't comment on the delicate cycle as we do not use it. We are very pleased...Read more
with our purchase, and so glad we decided to go with the LG. So easy to use, the digital control panel is easy to understand, and the soft close glass lid is a nice touch. Longevity....who knows, but that TEN year warranty on the motor is very reassuring.Purchased in April 2020 at Appliances Online.

Great washing machine
This washing machine is great. No issues at all. Easy to use, the only thing I wish was different is if there was a delicates option but you can alter the spin speed so I guess that’s good enough. But overall I’m happy with my purchase.

The best
This top washing is by far the best washing machine I have used. I love the fact its a top loader with a wide number of washing cycles. Even though it is 7.5kg, it appears to fit alot more. clothes come out clean and the machine is easy to maintain

Absolutely great!
I live alone so this is a perfect washing machine as you can do very little loads but big loads when necessary! Love all the different options... mostly the quick 30 one!
For the price you pay, it’s pretty amazing! The clothes always come out smelling amazing! Not to mention the machine itself is super cute!

Perfect size for price!
Perfect size for our 2-3person household (clothes, sheets, towels). It can handle smaller blankets without the agitator in the middle, which is really handy, and doesn't make a lot of noise. The end chime is a bit unnecessary.
Basic wash cycles average about 1hr, quick wash option is 33min. But can custom set spin, temp, water level, rinse, soil level, and wash times for own needs.

Why is this washing machine so bad?????
5 answers
My review was on the 6.5kg washer but maybe the 7.5 is the same
The major problem is your washing comes out every time covered what looks like lint
You either have to hand wash items again to remove residual or let dry and brush off
I clean lint filters on a weekly basis but has not improved the outcome
After 2 yesrs with this washing machine its time to try a different brand
Cheers
I purchased this machine in June 2020. I absolutely love this machine. If you do not clean the filters lint could be a problem. For clothes that are fluffy change the water level to the next setting. I very rarely have lint left on clothes. Synthetic track pants seem to be a magnet for lint.
This particular washing machine is an impeller type, the clothes are aggressively rubbed by these rotating nodules found at the base of the drum, and my family believes that clothing must get caught in grooves and therefore stretching, lint deposits and smearing occurs on the washed clothes. Cleaning and therefore handling the filters constantly has also led to another problem, ie if you don't pop them back in completely, the filters will dislodge into the washing machine and become damaged, as has happened to me and as a 9 month old machine, I have had to call LG to send me a new filter, thankfully for now it is still under warranty, just.
This machine is deficient by design.......

IS this machine big enough for king size sheets

Firstly, don't buy LG because they are based in the Phillipines and if you have a problem with your machine they will avoid you like the plague.
Secondly, 8.0 kg washing machine is perfect for king bedding sheets.
