Are these machines crap? I did notice that the Made In Korea sticker was on the inside of the door. Is this good, bad or indifferent? |

I'm sorry I canno't agree - I recommend you don't buy it because of the real poor service. Do a google and put in 'lg service nightmare'. Yes make sure that people in your area will service your machine. I will say that it did clean well when it worked. I did like the water circulation system. The balance to spin was totally stupid with 3 rinses it added at least 20 minutes to a cycle. Today they all don't use much water so you won't see a show. I got rid of mine almost a year ago. I don't miss the aggravation and use public laundry. I want another combo but am taking my time investigating. If you want a good front loader go with the Frigidaire. Most people have had good luck with them. I like the speed queen but they are expensive and so stripped down in cycle options. Amazing their top loaders offer a lot of cycles and options but the front loaders don't. Good Luck with whatever you decide. Peter |

Hey Brian!, I have the set with the controls on the rear.Non stackable.I bought these at the flea market and they have a full 1 year warranty through the seller.I used to sell them too as well as their other appliances.I have mixed fealings but all in all,they are great machines! My clothes have never been cleaner looking or smelling since I bought these.I got the set for $400!The washer spins 1200 RPMs!The dryer is fast.Usualy 20 minutes to dry! The major problem with most L.G products is being able to find a servicer who stocks the parts.Most have to order them before being able to repair the unit and some are not at all familiar with L.G.'s new electronic technology.Some(most)custonmers and/or service companies are too impatient and don't want to wait for parts.I had one of their combos(24" model)and had to wait 4 months to get it fixed.The repair company clamed the manufacturer of that part(not LG)had been on strike.L.G.agreed and lengthened my warranty for another full year!That IMOP was way too long to wait.I had to wait two weeks for a new motor in my FRIGIDAIRE pro series dishwasher then had to reschedule the return to have it completed.A total of three weeks I had to wait for repair.Tht to me sounds normal but to most people,it's not.This is what most customers who own L.G. products seam to be angry about.Otherwise,they're great and mine get used regularly.As a matter of fact,I am currently washing my throw pillows off my sofa and chairs!If you use the Permanent Press cycle,more water comes in almost up to the window!Just FYI |
