Loud Washer

Strengths: Good cleaner power, smooth spining cycle, user friendly control

Weakness: Very loud water pump, maintenance headache

This washer is much louder than my 9-year old Kenmore front load washer. The noise is coming from the water pump when it is pumping water out of the machine. The spinning, however, is very smooth at high speed. Controls are very easy to use. The maintenance seems require a lot of work. You must wipe clean the glass door, rubber seal, and stainless steel drum after each use, in order to prevent...

Quiet, Clean and Efficient

Strengths: Quiet, Saves Water and Energy, Easy to Use

Weakness: Weird pipe banging noise when filling with water

LG units get good reviews by Consumer Reports so we took a chance on one for our first front loader washing machine. We have had the LG WM2016 washing machine for about 3 weeks. This machine replaced a 20 yr old Amana which was very noisy. So far it has been great. Easy to use

Buyer Beware!

Strengths: Saves water and energy. Quiet operation. Cleans well.

Weakness: Mildew smell builds up when washer door is shut between washes. The machine broke and is unable to be repaired after seven months.

After seven months of trouble free use, my LG front Loader displayed and IE error code, meaning that water was not entering the inlet valve. After following the instructions in the owner's manual to no avail, we contacted the company. They sent a local LG certified repair service, who found that they needed to order a replacement part, which took a week to arrive, since it came from Korea. When...

Enjoying our WM2016CW LG Front Load Washer!

Strengths: Easy installation, user friendly, easy to understand user instructions, a lot quiter during spin cycle than our old top loader, cleans clothes well, energy and water efficient

Weakness: The drum capacity could be bigger. Wash cycles are longer than I am used to.

One week and 5 loads later we are quite happy with our purchase. Installation was very easy, took about 10 minutes to get everything up and going, with the help of the Sears delivery people, of course. We are especially enjoying the fact that the water use and energy use is considerably less compared to our ancient top loader washer.

Works great! I think..

Strengths: Dries out clothes

Weakness: Long wash cycle, capacity seems smaller than our same size top loader. Shakes house.

This thing is rather pretty and it's fun to watch it wash! Except when you put it on extra high spin and there's a banging noise (CSR was surprised at this sound) even after all leveling attempts have been made and you've spoken with customer service and tried everything else out. It also shakes the whole house, making the chandelier in the dining hall wobble and act like a wind chime ringing to...

Extremely Disappointed

Strengths: None

Weakness: See comments.

When the drum is filled with clothes, there is not enough water to properly clean the clothes. No way to control the amount of water. Cycle takes about an hour, way too long. If you use the quick cycle, the clothes do not get clean and rinsed properly. Washed sheets have visible lines from the lack of proper rinsing. Was not aware that I should be using powdered detergent and now have a build up...

best front load i have used so far

Strengths: accessible dirt trap, 1000 rpm, intuitive switches layout, handwash mode

Weakness: none so far

after using several front loaders, but i have come to love LG. i can't comment enough on the accessible dirt trap that's connected to the water pump. it was on my wish list for all washers, not just front load. to operate this unit is so simple as 1-2-3 and it's already start working. did i say this thing has a functioning handwashable mode. highly recommended.

LONG CYCLES

Strengths: front loader, easy to operate

Weakness: noisy

I purchased this from home depot 15 months ago..last week started noticing longer cylcle times...today it took the washer 2 hours and 45 minutes to complete a medium load. When I spoke to home depot they said I need to call a repair service since it was older than a year..I did..they said they need to charge me $155 for the service call and it sounds like the timer panel went..another $250...I...

Saves water, energy, and money!

Strengths: Uses water (and therefore energy, for heating the water) very efficiently, thus saving money and the environment; very quiet; cleans really well; rinses well; very good customer service

Weakness: Takes a little while to figure out all the options on the dial but not difficult. Good size, but not for huge loads. Need to dry off seal after every wash, like for all front loaders - not hard.

My new LG washer is great! I love that it is not wasteful with water, while doing a great job on my laundry. It takes a bit longer than my last washer, but is well worth the time as the clothes are washed gently and come out very clean. I am very happy with this washer - no complaints!
