Pros: Quiet, uses less water and energy.
Cons: Doesn't clean clothes as well as conventional washer, takes longer per cycle.
Summary: I've put off writing this review for a long time. Not because I wasn't sure about what to write, but because I wasn't sure I WAS right. It seemed like everything I read about front loading washers indicated they got clothes cleaner with less soap, water, ...

Pros: uses less water. More eco friendly
Cons: Its broken after 2.7 years, does not get clothes clean, mildew!
Summary: Purchased this washer in 2009. Started having problems 5 months ago, called LG and advised me to put spin cycle on "high" only because it was not spinning well. Finally gave out today. Loud griding sounds for the past months and washer does not spin on ...

Pros: Can't think of any
Cons: SMELLY CLOTHES
Summary: I too have had many problems with my LG front load washer. Purchased in 2004, the first year this mfgr. made front-loading washers, I had never heard of the "smelly clothes" problem. From what I can tell, ALL front-loaders have this design ...

Pros: Quiet operation. Liked the appearance and options.
Cons: Smelly clothes (Design flaw), Bad bad customer service.
Summary: I bought this washer because it had all the options I was looking for. I liked the high speed spin cycle because it reduced the amount of time needed to dry the laundry. I also thought since LG was fairly new to the appliance business that they may have ...

Pros: Extreme washing efficiency, clean smelling clothes, nice control panel layout.
Cons: Some routine maintenance required, must carefully read manual
Summary: Bought this washer about 3 weeks ago from a Major Retailer and posted my comments on their site, but they didn't have the guts to post it cause I always try to keep it 'real' for the rest of us and I guess they couldn't handle it so I'm trying this ...

Cons: Cannot add clothes once it starts.

Summary: I was in love with my 10 year old Kenmore washer when it died unexpectedly about a week ago. After mourning it for about an hour, I started researching new machines (fixing the Kenmore would be about a $300-$500 expense so I decided the money was better ...

Pros: Brand reliability, general performance, energy use, water use
Cons: Mold and mildew, tub does not drain fully, pending lawsuits.
Summary: Sure it's a top rated "quick pick" on Consumer Reports, but they only tested it for a few weeks in the lab. The real world shows this model has a mold problem. The general consensus is that this is a great washer, as long as you don't put in too ...

Pros: Everything! It actually makes me excited about doing laundry. Cleans better, uses less water.
Cons: More expensive than top loaders and long cycles.
Summary: I bought this after reviewing opinions on the internet and checking consumer reports. I have been very happy with it. The clothes are cleaner than I have ever seen. They seem to rinse multiple times during the cycle. I was always concerned with my old ...
