LG - 5.0 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Top Load Washer with 6Motion Technology - White

We have battled with this washer for a couple of years. It is a love hate relationship. We like the simplicity of it, but don't feel that our clothes get as clean as possible. We purchased all LG appliances for our home because of reviews and recommendations. The dryer, fridge, ovens, and cooktop are all great. This washer... not so much. We wanted one with a center agitator, but were talked out of it - "this is the BEST washer out there. It will get your clothes super clean and without the center agitator, you get even more capacity." Capacity, yes... cleanliness not so much.

This washing machine is very quiet and cleans clothes well. Has a variety of settings that all work well. Seems like it is very efficient in both water and electricity use. We are very happy with this purchase and would recommend this LG to anyone else based on the quality and price.

My dryer died and since my washer was equally ancient I replaced it with the LG. I love the options and size of this washer. It has a lot more features and I thought there may be a learning curve but I was wrong. It's idiot proof. I like the glass top and even the cute chrome that signals when the load is done. It is also really quiet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive used it for a week. So far so good. Easy to use and seems to clean the clothes throughly. It's easy to stop to toss that sock you dropped on the way to the washer! I also appreciate being able to raise the water level.

We purchased a new washer to replace a 10 year old LG which had performance issues. The first use of the machine brought back the same type of performance issues as the old one - rinse cycle did not remove residue from the clothes. We had a difficult time trying to understand the problem. Finally, after not getting much help from LG's online assistant, we discovered the reason - the quest for Energy Star rating. The use of less water in the rinse cycle and it being cold instead of warm (which would better dissolve the soap residue) are the culprits. So, we have to require an additional rinse cycle to solve the issue. I would say that using pods instead of liquid detergent saw improved performance.
