Good

I have owned 2 LG top loaders. It's working well after 5 years and I absolutely love the quick wash fuction which only takes 30 minutes. And I used the quick wash a lot because I have a little one why I do the washing in a daily basis. Highly recommended

This is perfect!

published

This machine is not loud, and it does a good job cleaning my clothes. Drying is average. It is quiet and I forget that it is on. Which is not a problem because it turns off automatically after washes. The only down side is that it takes awhile to weigh the clothes

Ok. But not as good as the salesman made it out to be

published

This washing machine looks good and is very quit. Doesn’t jump around like my old one. Not having an agitator is fabulous for washing duvets however on some of the linger cycles certainly tangle the clothes eve though we were advised that this didn’t happen. Majority of the cycles are really long and the quick cycle whilst only just over half an hour only allows for a low water level limiting the items.

Does the Job

published

I enjoy the slow release lid and the glass top.
It washes well and the circlular hard filters are easy to remove, clean and have done well catching lint.
The limit of wash choices is frustrating and the lid cannot be up whilst the water is filling which I liked from previous model.
Our appliance had damage on the side from warehouse movement which we were unaware of until opening. We live hours from the shop and therefore either party were willing to pay returns. I would reccommend more packaging inside the box to prevent damage.

Fantastic washer

published

Wash’s great need to use quick wash as the Cotten wash takes over 2 hours. It’s very quiet and only beeps a short time when finished. I love the extra air dry feature so your clothes don’t take a long time to dry. I love that you can fit a large blanket in it and it will be washed

The best washer I have had yet!

published

I love this machine. It looks awesome and it washes so well. Very quiet and I love there is nothing in the middle of the barrel like old machines used to have so nothing gets caught and tangled. I am sure this is much gentler on your clothes too. I am impressed with the LG brand of products.

Clothes come out clean, well rinsed out. Never damaged any clothes. Has a gentle cycle and quick wash. Really great washing machine. I have always been happy with this machine. Never had any faults or problems. I like how you have so many choices to wash with as well as the glass top to look on whilst its cleaning.

Perfect for a house of 3-4 people

published

The washing machine is a superb cleaner and the spin some times makes the clothes so dry that just in few hours its all ready to be kept in the wardrobe, my daughter likes the music at the end. she will walk around around the final rinse to hear it at the end . We have finally found what we needed in this master piece.

I wish I had not bought this machine!

published

It does not wash properly, often lint on everything. Clothes are not clean if they end up with more lint than when they went into the wash!!
It shows an EO error that the filter needs clearing but you cant get to the filter....what is the point of that? 2nd service visit and I want to hear WHY this machine has so many problems (eg no unbalanced load error - just banging the bowl against the machine casing!. The lid inconsistently locks (it should) or not, the computer board was completey replaced at 12 months. I am very unhappy with this machine.

Good Washing Machine

published

It cleans Well and does not wear out or Damage any clothes, can be quite loud at times and it has the quick wash function which is handy, Favorite feature is that you can add on more by just pausing and adding more washing.
The only problem is it tends to make loud banging noise if the machine is full, especially while washing heavy towels and Bed sheets, have to pick the right washing mode for every clothing, apart from that it is a great machine.

clothes are crushed

published

the clothes get cleaned ok but unless you increase the water level, they come out all crushed. It is simple to use and sometimes the clothes still have marks on them, but that could be my detergent. Today it is very hard to find a washing machine that rates as good as the old ones and lasts as long.

Great washing machine

published

Purchased this washing machine online, the washing machine holds a great deal of clothes, ecsoecially as this has no agitator. The water and energy rating are reasonable and quick wash quickly and effectively. The machine washes well and operates quietly with minimum noise. I am happy with this purchase and the brand.

Good size washer with quick washing feature

published

Good washing Machine, I feel like my clothes are coming out much cleaner then with my previous model. Machine is quiet, easy to use. I really like that it has a quick wash option that still actually washes my clothes well. Also the 9.5kg is a great size for a family.

Dont buy dont buy!!!!!

The machine is worthless, a lot of LINT issues. Also Support is terrible, they give you the run around and avoid any form of refund. Spent ages trying to trouble shoot, where the problem is the LG brand itself. The product has false advertising about auto lint removal! LG should be fine for false advertising and support goes to the Philippines where they don't care or respect their customer.

WTG8532WH (8.5kg)

Hi we have the LG WTG8532WH machine, the amount of lint on our washing is ridiculous, this is the worst washing machine we have bought, we have cleaned the inlet filters and the lower drain plug filter, which is being done weekly, we do the tub clean monthly but nothing is working, we are still getting lint on our washing, the washing machine has on it filter free symbol, how do clean this washing machine out and stop the lint covering our washing, not a happy LG customer, maybe consumer affairs can help us as the washing machine isn’t performing correctly, NOT HAPPY LG IN YOUR PRODUCT

Looks like alot of people with this 8.5kg model are reporting a lint problem. I guess it is not scrud (which is caused by soap powder build up with cold washes). Scrud can get on clothes. I always warm wash to prevent scrud. If it is lint then I guess if the machine is not working in this dept. Only way is to wash lint type items together e.g. towels and other items separately. I have had a terrible run with several LG WTG7532W (7.5kg). No lint problem but repeat DE faults on lid caused by either the magnets or hinges. No help at all from LG. call centre.. They do not care about their customers or faulty products at all.

WTG7532WH (7.5kg)

Bought the machine in April 2016. Lint! Lint! On everything. Lint filter no don't one. Wash the clothes then go outside with a lint brush before bringing the clothes inside. Where does all the lint come from? Previous loads. As for service in Canberra act. One company only. One other Company want service call fee over the phone when you book. The other is sooooo busy can't service for at least another week. As for the LG Care centre, don't think the staff are in Australia. For future reference don't buy it unless it has a lint filter. LG products are good. Question - why no lint filter in this model?

Sounds like your filter at the bottom at the back of the machine. Suspect that could be full, in is further in the outlet pipe I think from memory. Needs cleaning that might solve it??
