Get the LG WM3570. Consumer reports rated the LG WM3370 at the very bottom of their ratings. It came with a score of 13 out of 100 vs. 78 out of 100 for the WM3570. |

The machine is listed as non-returnable on the website.
Models on clearance? Malcolm |

It looks like in the comparison link, it is comparing a 3170 (not a 3370) to a 3570. The 3170 (as shown in the link) does not have a heater. I would definitely go with the 3570. You'll be glad you did! |

I am very happy with my LG's both are 3570's and they are efficient, quiet, and the washer cleans like no other. The dryer is smooth and very fast. The washer replaced a SQ top loader that I still have in my basement that I will be getting rid of soon. The dryer replaced a GE Profile that decided to lose its mind. I think that you will be quite happy with them.
The new LG washer drum also has more holes along with the full width drum vanes. My sister in law has the 4070's and the wash action is no different than what I have in mine. |

Daniel,
I bought the WM3170CW and matching dryer 2 mo. ago. It is pretty similar to the 3570, except there is no heater, which was really not important to me. I have been very satisfied with both of these machines. I have found that when washing smaller loads of heavy items, like bath towels, hoodies, bath rugs, ect. it is best to use the Bulky cycle as the spin speed is med. This way there is no problem with the machine going into a spin, at higher spin speeds it doesn't want to balance sometimes with these kinds of heavy items. I guess that's why they have a Bulky cycle. Then when the load has finished and the majority of the water weight is gone I run a spin only at ex high, this way these heavy towels, ect dry in 35 mins. I wash most loads on hot and I would have to agree with Mike in reply #13 that the laundry does come out much cleaner than it did in a TL. The extra time that the washing takes is more than made up in the decreased drying times. And the electric bill went down over $20.00 per mo. from what it was for the same time last year. I have found that for most loads I use the small load cycle, hot, ex high spin and heavy soil level, this gives 55 mins. per cycle which is not too bad. Also, for washing kingsize comforters, bedspreads and mattress pads as well as pillows these LG FL's cant't be beat. The matching dryer holds alot and it is quiet and fast. I don't regret my choice at all. I'm sure you would be happy with either of the LG's you are considering. Eddie |
