I think there was a thread here about these recently. I believe these are the same as the GE Harmony washers and dryers that have been around for almost ten years. Generally the GE harmony washers have held up fairly well but load turn oer is terrible and most users claim they are very rough on clothing, I have had quite a few come through the shop that people got rid of already, [ even our web master Robert passed his along after a few years to a new home ]. The dryers seem to work quite well they are a mechanical copy of WPs 27" dryer design [ I even put a WP dryer motor in one a while ago ]. But overall I don't think the dryers hold up very well and are much harder and more expensive to repair.

Machines that are hard on clothes are usually good cleaners. That said if you want to try these out I would at least buy the GE versions as that way you will at least have a better chance of getting quality reasonably priced service in the future. Even here in the Washington D C area no highly rated service companies will touch L G and Samsung appliances. I would check this out for yourself by going to a service like Angies List and calling a couple of the top rated servicers in your area and asking them if they are happy and willing about working on LG.

I was in Home Depot last night and saw the "Toy" LG top load washer, man I would have killed for a toy like that when I was a kid! LOL Mike |
