LG WTG7532WH (7.5kg)

Buyer Beware - broke within the first month and now again in the third month – We have had endless troubles with this machine and the store has provided poor customer service. No matter what we do the electronics let this machine down. Too many things have gone wrong with it. So disappointing.  Show details

My machine has a musky, mouldy smell. Sorry that I didn’t read the reviews before purchasing this washing machine – I am washing for one person. I find that it does not spin dry as my old machine. Needing to change settings when doing a quick wash to spin the clothes better.  Show details

WTG7532W steep learning curve but a quiet great machine – We got the Direct Drive 7.5 top loader, it is very high tech so took us a few test loads to work how to get the optimal water level, but once we know the setting we're after it is much better than our previous top loader/front loader washing machines. 1 This clean and rinse well. you have to choose wash at least 10 minutes if you have a big… Read more

load.

2 we only got it around 2 month so can't tell if it wears out cloth

3 we live in a unit with laundry in the bathroom, and this machine is quiet enough (even in spin cycle) for us to sleep in the morning so Yes it is quiet. (when you pick washing machines at the store you can try to shake the drum, the support mechanism for this drum is very good so it is hard to move, which means the drum spins in the middle instead of hitting the side of the washer.

4. Don't have a favorite feature, just like the quietness of the washer :)

I got extended warranty at Bing Lee as well so i am all good.

Too many problems for a new machine – I bought this machine with high hopes and it started out ok. About 8 months into owning the machine I have had it repaired 3-4 times. The machine tub became loose somehow, and is super loud, and bangs around so much that it moves almost a metre away from the wall. The machine has now scratched sides from hitting the laundry tub whilst spinning… Read more

violently. The repair guy has tried to resolve this problem twice already. It then also got the occasional error codes that it was not draining well, and a part needed replacing. Then after those repairs, the sensor immediately stopped working properly and would only land the water level at 1. So to wash a load properly I would need to stand by the machine, check its levels, and check in whilst draining and spinning to make sure the machine washed and stayed in place. Not really a justifiable use of time when I have kids and work!

Now I'm being told the whole computer board needs replacing.

Really!! I think I deserve a new replacement as 8 months with all of these problems, just means its a bad faulty machine!! Not happy LG...

Update: computer board was replaced, and the next day the same problems are happening. Machine sensor doesn't work. Very loud spin cycles with tub constantly loosening and machine moving roughly. I called LG explaining problems and asking for a refund, and I was told it would be brought to the attention of the manager and my call would be returned same day. One week later I'm still waiting for that call.

I think its time to take consumer affairs action!

A bit complex to use, clothes wash well – First wash took forever, just for towels 1hr 50min? Second wash I used the quick cycle and went out for a walk only to find when I got back it had stopped for unknown reason. Turned off and back on and it restarted. I have a weeks worth of washing to catch up on from having no machine and each cycle seems way too long plus twice it hasn't seemed… Read more

to have added enough water and the instructions say you may have to adjust this. What a pain! They are quite deep and as a short person I find it hard to reach the items on the bottom. On the plus side, the clothes come out very soft, seems to use less water and detergent. I am getting used to the settings but the manual is not very good at explaining how to set your own wash so it has been trial and error. I hated in on day 1 but have since decided I do like not having an agitator in the way and we are making friends slowly! You can fit lots in. The water level is a pain, as on occasion it doesn't seem to have filled enough. Takes some getting used to but I think I like it now and really happy with the softness of the clothes. Its very quiet, and I haven't even used the quiet cycle yet. Soft close lid is great.

Not a review problem fix – Lint problem solved. Ok so I have been working as a washing machine Tech for a while now. The problem with lint build up on clothes and washing machine being hard on clothes is caused by clothes rubbing together in the machine. Causes are :- Too little water in the machine. Either increase water level or reduce amount of clothes. Using hot water or warm will improve wash quality. Or dissolving detergent in hot water before putting in machine. Show reply

Ugh I love it! – After pulling out my hair with our Simpson for years I finally decided to try this machine and haven't looked back since. It is super easy to use and oh so quiet. I think our clothes are finally getting a decent wash too. LG have a customer for life if it keeps going the way it is.  Show details

This is a very efficient machine – Rinse and dry clothes perfectly Less wrinkles on clothes It's relatively loud when rinsing Very engery efficient Perfect size for one big load Clothes do not wear out at all It has all little functions like you can choose or adjust water level depending on how big your load is; easy adjusting time ; many options for washing;  Show details

Random wash cycles and lint everywhere! – Have been unsatisfied with this product and the way it washes. Swishes from side to side, barely cleaning any of our clothes. Detergent left on clothing (even when we have triple checked amounts used). Lint on every wash regardless of tub clean or filter clean. Have tried everything to fix from our end and no luck. Customer service gives same… Read more

advice but it's obviously just the machine. Family members with same machine have experienced this also. Waiting for it to die and then never buying an LG again!

Decent wash but with a downside – This washer does do a good job and clothes are cleaned well, but the big disadvantage for us living on tank water is that it weighs the load before it decides how much water to use. This means that any wet clothes that you might have had soaking, or very damp towels, make it use more water. It also means that you can't tip in buckets of water… Read more

collected as the shower heats up. You can adjust it to a manual wash but I have to get the manual out every time to do this. Plus it makes you do a tub clean occasionally which uses water. I just wish it didn't decide water usage on its own.

LG WASHING MACHINE – This top loading machine is performing well and very quiet. It has many water levels and washing cycles to choose. The normal cycle is very long so I ussualy chose the quick wash. One problem with the machine is that the machine is very deep you have to make sure that you are comfortable to reach the cloths at the end before you buy the machine.  Show details

LG washing Machine – This washing machine is alright, quiet, and perfect for small family. It has a control panel which allows you to select your mode easily. Even for the water level, so you can save some water when required and when you are washing less clothes. Price is reasonable around 700 AUD.  Show details

Excellent – I love this machine. Especially that there is no agitator clothes don’t get tangled around the agitator because there is none! But it cleans everything really well love the turbo air drying it’s great in winter. Also love that there are no messy filters to clean and it lets me know when I am due to do a tub clean which takes a while so my advice is to let it do it over night or on a day your not going to be washing.  Show details

This is perfect! – This machine is not loud, and it does a good job cleaning my clothes. Drying is average. It is quiet and I forget that it is on. Which is not a problem because it turns off automatically after washes. The only down side is that it takes awhile to weigh the clothes  Show details

Ok. But not as good as the salesman made it out to be – This washing machine looks good and is very quit. Doesn’t jump around like my old one. Not having an agitator is fabulous for washing duvets however on some of the linger cycles certainly tangle the clothes eve though we were advised that this didn’t happen. Majority of the cycles are really long and the quick cycle whilst only just over half an hour only allows for a low water level limiting the items.  Show details

I love how easy it is and does a great job! – Clothes come out clean, well rinsed out. Never damaged any clothes. Has a gentle cycle and quick wash. Really great washing machine. I have always been happy with this machine. Never had any faults or problems. I like how you have so many choices to wash with as well as the glass top to look on whilst its cleaning.  Show details

Great size top loader – Love this new lg no agitator great for clothes no tangle twisting, nice deep drum, a little to deep for me being short lol great finish, lots of washing choices. See through lid, soft close lid, Tells you when you need to do a clean basin wash. Easy to use touchpad.  Show details

Bring back the old dial machines – The more they complicate the process, the easier it is to stuff up the works. The machine is simple enough to use, but it doesn't do a great job and for the brand and money paid, I expect it to be better. I have no idea why the machine has to dance a little jig before each and every wash, what the hell is that about? hy can't the machine just… Read more

fill with water and start like they used to? The drum goes through this dance motion as if it has to limber up before a big match.

I don't feel that it washes the clothes properly, and clothes regularly come out all knotted together. If that's what happens then how can clothes possibly be washed adequately?

The timing is also completely off. Once you set it, the time can be 1 hour and 6 or 7 minutes etc, however several of those minutes are used while the machine fills. Another couple of minutes are used while the machine does this weird spinning action, (god knows what that's for), you then may be left with about 55 minutes of washing time which is so inaccurate it's laughable. Several times I've watched this machine allegedly washing clothes while the drum is hardly even moving. How can clothes be possibly washed in this manner. Then the timer may tell you that there's 35 minutes left, however come back and check on it 40 minutes later and it's still going. I watched this machine tell me that there is one minute left of its final spin and stood there for 3 minutes waiting for it to end. How long does 1 minute last in the LG world?

Maybe I need to locate an old dial and set machine that clicks along when it goes through its various stages as I feel they washed clothes better and you had more control over how it operated. This thing is useless.

Perfect washing machine perfect wash – Great machine.quiet, efficient, good clean wash, had it for quite a few months now.no problems. One thing not covered in manual -- the sign CL which means child lock.to open the lid again when lid locks you have to put finger on the rince button and hold it there for 3 seconds. Marvelous to know it locks if kids fiddle with buttons. Luv this machine.  Show details

Replaces LG Washer bought 1999! – This new LG Top Loader (2017) replaces a similar LG Top Loader purchased 1999 and which had given excellent service over that time. The washing cycles are now more complicated and we have hung the Manual next to the machine so that we can learn how to get the best from each cycle. A FEW GOOD TICKS: *Tick for the automatic lint filter which… Read more

does not need emptying, we are getting a cleaner (almost) lint free wash.

*Tick for the Towel cycle, this is becoming our favourite all-purpose cycle as it spins the water through the clothes to saturate and distribute the load – this cycle is doing a good job on all fabric types - but we do have to manually increase the water level.

*Tick for the manual Ultra Spin function, being able to spin to damp-dry is very efficient. Haven't tried the Air Dry yet, should be helpful in rainy weather.

*Tick for no central impeller, able to easily fit pillows and duvets (but not necessarily at the same time!) in the generous bowl

*Tick for how quiet it is across all cycles

*Tick for how fresh the clothes smell - same water, same laundry detergent, but a distinctly fresher smell!

NOT CONVINCED AS YET:

*Umm (jury is still out) for the fuzzy logic – as with the old machine Fuzzy Logic cycle, all the water levels are too low and have to be manually increased.

*Umm for the complicated wash cycles – but Tick that we can create our own Favourite cycle and use that.

OVERALL:

We are very pleased with and happy to recommend, our new LG washing machine

Love it. Makes life so much easier – Great machine that can do so much. I do shift work and sleep all hours, so this machine fits my lifestyle well. The washing builds up over the week until I have time. I can fit a weeks worth of uniforms, clothes and queen bed sheets with no problems. I find it washes & rinses well, it is quiet and doesn't take long for the clothes to dry on the… Read more

line. I like the duvet cycle for when you do the mattress and overlay covers, along with the doonas. Ease to use, sort, add detergent and press start.

Bad Choice – We were taken in by the fact that the agitator is on the bottom of the barrel and thought clothes wouldn't get twisted around a central agitator , however , we were wrong and sometimes we can just lift the entire load out in one movement as every item is so intertwined . we also have a lot of trouble with lint on bigger items like sheets . I'm of… Read more

medium height and it's an effort to reach the bottom of the barrel to retrieve items . All in all we're not happy with our LG washer .

Fantastic Washer saved my butt – It washes SOOOO Clean and there is absolutely NO residue left after the rinse cycle. I love the fact that I can set it for extra Rinse Cycles if I wish. I have used the Delicate cycle for our Woolens, they have come up so soft and clean they will store ready for winter beautifully.  Show details

Great little top loader – The glass soft close lid is perfect for viewing. I always use cold water wash and the clothes come out beautifully clean. I've used the cotton cycle on most of the loads and it's excellent for just about everything. It's on legs so cleaning underneath is a breeze. It's really quiet so I use it at night to save energy. It's gentle on clothes, as… Read more

there's no centre agitator. Although the machine decides the length of the wash, rinse and spin cycles, if you're washing bulky items (like towels or a doona) it's best to manually set the water level to the highest level to avoid the machine getting off balance. This machine is on loan to me from The Good Guys, but if I wanted a compact, efficient little machine then this would be it, she's terrific.

Good machine with one fault – Washes well. However, am devastated the gentle cycle, which I used on my previous machine constantly, only washes with cold water. Would not have bought this machine if I had known. Back to hand washing my woollens -- I never use cold water for delicates. The machine is quiet, and simple to use.  Show details

Little Workhorse – This Washing Machine has been great! -Have done hundreds of loads of washing and always great results. -Very Efficient -Good Size Loads -Enough options for washing a variety of ways -Good water and power rating -Low maintenance -audible complete tone Great little machine and good price and it has never messed up a load i.e powder distribution, softner, etc  Show details

Great for our large family!our clothes – Our clothes come out nice and clean. And in great condition. Noise wise not to bad, a lot quieter than my last washer. Really nice with the delicate cycle, has never destroyed any clothes. Little jingle at the end of a wash is slightly annoying, but that's the worst thing about it.  Show details

Very good washing machine – We had a SIMSONS washing machine before which was very nosy and vibrating very badly. Thanks for this lg product ! It's so much nicer with a lot of features. There's a whites option too for the white clothes and as well for the winter clothes. A T B .  Show details

Luv it – It is very cool, quiet , no agitator washes well and plays a song at the end of the load! I like how it uses very little water and it is also programmable so you can just press a button and go on your way till you hear the music!  Show details

LG 7.5 Top Loader. Top machine – We have had this machine for over 3 months and use it about 4 times a week This is a great washing machine that does a very good tangle free job. Our clothes are spun to near dry which cuts down the drying time, very helpful in winter. The washer is simple to use and has a number of options for different materials and levels of grubiness etc. … Read more

The only negative thing I can say is that the buttons are on the front of the machine and can be accidentally pushed when leaning in getting clothes out.

This LG top loader Washing machine is superb. I am using this product without any problem. The noise – I am using LG for last couple of months. Used almost 2-3 times in a week, some time more. It Cleans every cloths very well but you have to choose the right program mood. There more that 20 programs mode as well as plenty setting. But you don't need to be worried to set every piece of it. It has a nice AI. I never found any cloths to wear-out. It runs very quietly, Quick wash is a cool program for me.  Show details

Washing machine that is Good for 4 people – We had an old LG front load washing machine. we have been using that for more than 10yrs and we were happy with it that's why when it broke down and became irepairable I said that we will get the same one but my wife said that it is bettet to get a top load because she's now having problem whenever she bends to get the laundry from the machine. So… Read more

we have this same brand LG but TOP LOAD ( smart drum with direct drive technology) for 10 months now. we wash our clothes almost everyday and washing clothes through this machine is somewhat enjoyable because it was easy and watet efficient (though i don't pay water rates coz im renting a unit) but still nice to know that i used less water. Normal washing would take about 35 to 60 mins depending on how dry do you want the clothes after the cycle( the spinning) which for me is just fine specially after seeing that my clothes are really cleaned after washing. The machine perform better when it is full than with only 2 or 3 items ( it tends to rattle due to imbalance) having said that im very satisfief with this machine and i can recommend it.
