LG WM0642H Front Load Washer

Pros: Cleans great, quiet, easy to use
Cons: Slight vibration

This is a long review, but it should be very helpful.  Our previous top loading washer was still working OK, but it was time for a "green" change.  My stepson bought an LG washer & dryer (different model than this) and said it was ...

Pros: Ease of set-up & operation. Super clean clothes & fun to use!
Cons: Hmmmm? nothing so far. really.

I confess, I'm an internet "review" reading junkie when it comes time to make a purchase decision I like to see what my fellow consumers that have gone before me think. When my old Kenmore washing machine gave it up for the last time, I started my ...

Pros: Excellent value, huge capacity, ease of use, energy and water efficiency
Cons: So far: None

After months of research and reading the valued opinions on this site I finally selected the LG brand washer model WM0642HW front loading washer. Got it delivered Saturday and by Sunday night I was searching for more laundry to do! I compared various ...

Pros: Cleans great, large number of washing options, is a high-efficiency model, good value.
Cons: It does sit a little low and accessing the front-load hatch does require some bending.

Background We bought this washer (with matching dryer - DLE0442W) in April 2007. We needed to replace our older Kenmore Calypso washer and matching dryer. Our old dryer was still functioning, but the Calypso washer was having numerous ...

Pros: Ease of selecting cycles and features, clothes are very dry, energy efficient.
Cons: None that I've found so far.

What a great washer! I purchased this washer because I didn't need a stacking set and LG brand was the only way to go. After reading the consistently really good and really bad reviews on all of the other major front-load brands, LG only ever had really ...

Pros: Eco-friendly, large capacity, spins clothes nearly dry, lots of options for cycle settings.
Cons: Price, but this one is only a few hundred dollars more than a toploader.

If you're debating between a frontloader and a toploader, this is an excellent choice. It's at the lower end of the price range for frontloaders, and worth the money due to all the features it has. I bought the LG at Home Depot 3 months ago and am ...

Pros: Cleanest clothes, ultra quiet, hardly uses water, easy programming, makes work fun, great customer service.
Cons: Reteaching ourselves completely different ways of washing clothes after a lifetime of learning otherwise.

We have had nothing but success and wonderfully clean clothes with this washer. I have never felt shirts or towels that are so soft, which is because finally something has washed the dirt out! Errors We did get an LE error, but called Best ...

Pros: Quiet, large capacity, energy efficient, many cycles to choose from, plays a tune when done.
Cons: Cannot add clothes once it starts.

This is a fantastic washing machine! It literally has all the bells and whistles. It is very energy efficient in that it uses much less water than the old top load style, but the wash time is much longer (most are about one hour), ...

Pros: Quiet, Cleans great, Easy to use, Energy Star Efficient
Cons: None

After much research, we chose this washer to replace our 7 year old Maytag Atlantis which died. I was a little nervous about purchasing an LG product as we have never in the past. I spent probably 2 weeks going to the stores and online researching, ...

Pros: Multiple cycles, express wash, delayed start, child lock.
Cons: None

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: Cleans superbly, saves water and electricity, stylish, adaptable to any environment, solid build.
Cons: I suggest professional installation and leveling (most stores do this free, or offer a rebate).

I, like another consumer here, went through the Craplypso nightmare. Constant repairs, complaints to the manufacturer and even a report to Good Housekeeping who had given it the GH stamp of approval! Nobody wanted to help. So, when I finally tired ...

Pros: Large capacity, energy/water efficient, washes well, quiet, feature-laden, price, spouse may take on laundry duty
Cons: As with all front loaders, preventive maintenance is a must.

I convinced one of my recent front loader converts to purchase this LG model WM0642HW front loading washer.  She complained of the declining performance of her family’s 25 year old, large capacity, top loading washer.  Her ...

Pros: Quiet and holds large loads.
Cons: No sanitary wash if that's important to you.

I really checked all over the internet for reviews about this washer. I even subscribed to consumer reports to get an unbiased opinion. I originally thought I would get a Whirlpool duet but the they are so pricey. I also wanted to get a U.S. made ...

Pros: Uses very little water, modest vibration, easy to use
Cons: Longish wash cycle, untested brand name

I bought this machine at Best Buy a month ago. I've washed about 15 loads with it. I did not consult with epinions before buying a front loader. It's probably a good thing, I would have been scared off. I live in a three-story townhome, and my ...

Pros: Everything is now "machine washable". Savings will help pay for machine.
Cons: Front loading washers are still a little pricey.

I have wanted a front loading washer for several years now, and when we purchased our last house, we bought a brand new top loading washer and matching dryer (front loading units were very expensive). Since we sold our house, and moved into a new one, ...
