Perfect purchase.

Perfect size for price!
Perfect size for our 2-3person household (clothes, sheets, towels). It can handle smaller blankets without the agitator in the middle, which is really handy, and doesn't make a lot of noise. The end chime is a bit unnecessary.
Basic wash cycles average about 1hr, quick wash option is 33min. But can custom set spin, temp, water level, rinse, soil level, and wash times for own needs.
Purchased in November 2021 at Harvey Norman for $675.00.

Nice machine with a few issues
I purchased this washing machine as it was a great price and much bigger than my tiny old machine. I like the fact that it has no agitator (like my old machine) and other features such as the ability to set it to wash at a later time and the turbo drum. You can let it set the water level and time or do it yourself (which I usually do). I do a hell of a lot of washing and it definitely gets the job done.
Unfortunately there are a few issues I have found. Despite the fact that I empty the lint filters after every wash it will often deposit dark...Read more
lint type particles on clothes which have to be brushed off. The other issue is it doesn't really have a quick wash (even though there is a setting for it). It can run for a shorter time but it won't do a high spin (only low or medium). For the price I paid I am happy with the machine - despite those few issues.Purchased in November 2021 at JB Hi-Fi Online Store.

Amazing Washing Machine - Small and compact
This is my first washing machine since moving out of home,
It completely suits my needs (Household of 2 people)
AS it stands now I go through 1 wash a week, this means it is extremely economical for me to use a washing machine like this.
It isnt too loud, and has amazing features such as a quick wash,
My only issue was leveling the damn thing, as it didnt have an inbuilt spirit level
Purchased in June 2021 at The Good Guys Online store for $400.00.

LG 6.5 kg washer and lint producer
O bought the LG 6.5 kg top loader & clean the filters after every wash & have followed LG's recommendation on how to reduce lint. Despite all this the machine produces a tremendous amount of lintm which requires some 20 minutes of brushing which still does not remove the lint. LG have not been helpful in dealing with the problem other than by stalling. Not happy.
Purchased in January 2021.

Easy to use, nice design
Good variety of wash options, the cycle times are pretty good and it's pretty quiet. We use it for everyday clothes, business shirts, sheets, towels, delicates etc and no issues. The only annoying thing is emptying the filters but still works great, just have to get into that habit. I love the little song it sings when it finishes!!
Purchased in December 2021 at Bing Lee for $498.00.

Great, until it started blowing smoke
My previous machine was an LG and lasted 9 years, so I didn’t hesitate to buy another one. This one has been great since I bought it in July 2018, until today when there was a loud popping sound and smoke started pouring out of it. Just lucky I was home to unplug it. It’s now full of water, with no way to empty it, and won’t turn on at all.
Still waiting for the tech to come and look at it, but from the conversation I had with him he wasn’t really surprised. Stay away.

Fantastic Washing Machine.
I have been using my LG 6.5kg Smart inverter Top loading washing machine for six months now and have had absolutely no problems. The machine is quiet and the settings are fool proof. It has a soft close lid (glass) that I was initially concerned with but have no qualms now that "soft close" actually means soft close. My clothes come out clean the filters are dead easy to keep clean. This LG though only 6.5kg services myself, my husband and two adult children (who incidentally all know how to operate it). This is a fantastic washing machine.

Questions & Answers
Colinasked
We have had the WTG6520 for about a month now and have spent a lot of time trying to level the machine to try and stop it vibrating during the spin cycle. Mainly when it is coming up to speed or decreasing in speed. (Maybe this is part of the design and is normal as once it has come up to high speed the vibration is minimal and somewhat acceptable). The instructions indicate to look inside the drum to centre it and adjust the front feet accordingly. The rear feet having no adjustments make it necessary for us to place some non-slip rubber under both rear feet to comply with the installation instructions indicating the allowable slope under the entire appliance is to be less than 1 degree and also to get the drum in the centre. Doing all this the best we can it still vibrates. This is also with no clothes in the machine. With clothes in the machine it does get worse. There are no error codes though.
Anyone else having this problem?
We have looked at the Troubleshooting and ensured that the floor is rigid, all levelling feet are touching the floor, wash load is evenly distributed, and all packing materials have been removed.

LG lid issue - My machine is only a few months old and rarely used. The lid has broken and can’t be closed. For a short time I noticed a clicking noise as the lid closed but it would still close properly and it would work. Then one day I opened the lid to find the lid itself had cracked in both corners near the hinge and pieces of plastic had broken off. This prevented the lid from sitting back into place properly therefore it can’t work anymore.
There must be some problem that caused the lid to make that clicking noise, something underneath caught, grabbing, grinding.
Has anyone else had this problem?
The response I had from LG, Betta Electrical and the service people that Betta fobbed me off to was that I broke it myself - Disgraceful attitude. I’m dealing with them appropriately through the Dept of Fair Trading.
But I really want to learn about this problem. Please let me know if anyone has had anything similar.

I am sad to read you have a lid problem My machine is washing and I am very satisfied.
Anyone else have this problem where the mechanism that closes the lid should move freely and not be stuck?
Had our machine for a month now and our lid works perfectly, no clicking noise or any grinding. It's very smooth when closing/opening.
