Found that they clean very well, but seem they wrinkle more than a front loader. Difference noted when you line dry. |

Hi aegokocarat I think the lawsuit has been resolved by now but I was reading somewhere that these machines are no longer being produced because of that. I shared a link below where I found some info.

I have used both the Whirlpool and the LG. The Whirlpool(Whirlpool,Maytag,Some Kenmores) did not get clothes as clean and well rinsed and spun out as the LG and the LG has a 10 year motor warranty.It is all stainless steel including its impeller that will not scratch up as easily as Whirlpools will causing fabrics to ware out from the scratches on the impeller.Like the older Speed Queens, the more ware that is put on the impeller the smoother it gets.LG has also improved their customer support now that Sears has them making close to 60% of Kenmore appliances.The Sears "Fleet" carries parts and accessories on their trucks.

I would get the new WP built BD TL HE machines, they are already doing much better than The bigger and more expensive DD machines. The DD machines are having serious durablity issues with the main shaft and bearings, the design of the new BD machines is far superior and if it should fail will be much less expensive and easier to repair.
The LG-GE Harmony machines have been very unimpressive washers in build quality and durability [ way too many plastic parts, even the washers base frame is plastic and the cabinet is so thin it will bend if you bump into it ]. LG is at a huge completive disadvantage because of shipping costs and if you take a good look inside many of thier products you can see that under all the glitter there isn't much. And good luck getting one fixed after 5 or 10 years they are not designed to come apart and be repaired, most of the Korean appliances are basically throw away appliances if they have problems. |

If LG is so bad then why are their washers and dryers rated the best for overall service calls???? I have the recent report via CR and the LG washers and gas and electric dryers got the number one rating in frequency of repair.AND the Whirlpool Calipso washers were renamed the Collapso by most owners and service techs because they were constantly breaking down to the point of a serious law suite being filed causing Whirlpool to discontinue them.In about 80% of the service calls,we at HD received,the problems stemmed from the owners not following simple directions that come with every LG product.One of the reasons Sears has LG making their appliances is because of their reliability and another being price.After having so many issues with recalls on Whirlpool washers,microwave ovens,refrigerators and ranges,Sears decided to go "outside the box" for someone else to make their refrigerators,washers,dryers and otr microwave ovens. Electrolux also being another maker of them.
Most Whirlpool appliances are painted and their cabinet so thin that, if you live in a warm climate and have your laundry room outside,they rust like tin cans.Their refrigeration products do the same.Plastic parts???!!! The DDs are almost all plastic except their inner tubs and gears in the trans.The new ones are even more severe.When the Cabrios first came out, there were many failing control boards and quite a few recalls because of that.Some being D.O.A. like the Maytag Neptunes were.If the Cabrios are so great,why can't they give the same warranty coverage as LG(10 years) on the motors???? |

Yes. I like them because I have had great experiences with their performance,features,durability and design.They're like laundry robots and because of their electronic programming set up joining the motor with the timer in a way I've never seen before,they can wash just about anything with superb results.I've seen different models on sale at Sears, Home Depot and Best Buy.I'd recommend Sears or Home Depot because they have some great rebates going on now.
