User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars One month, so far so good
We researched all over and know about the need for special detergent and to leave the door open to prevent musty smells. Have had it a month and done at least 5-6 loads per week. No problems. Very quiet - our TV room is 10 feet from unit, no problems watching the tube. Seems like a good one, but we are aware that others have had problems. However, our research showed that every manufacturer turns out lemons. LG and Samsung seemed to have fewer lemons. Bought at Best Buy with extended service contract.
5 Stars Works like magic
I just bought an LG WM2016CW from the AAFES PX in South Korea, paid about $513.00 for it, works like a charm! Far more superior to my old Siemens front loader I bought back in 1992 while stationed in Germany.
5 Stars Great Machine but RTFM
You need to read the manual if you want to use one of these machines and be satisfied
* Drain the sump per the manual
* Run the tub clean cycle on occasion per the manual
The machines do a great job of making dirty cloths clean with a minimal amount of water. They do take a while to run. They are also a lot easier on stuff than the upright machines.
One additional word . The water valves are fast acting . Therefore your plumbing may rattle or have hammering sounds . If so buy some of the water hammer arrestors at Home Depot that attach to the faucet and dampen the pressure surge.
Highly recommended.
5 Stars I can’t stop doing laundry!

5 Stars Great Product
First off, I have been a front-load washer owner for over 7 years. We owned the Maytag Neptune, which finally gave out via the drum bearing. I researched a variety of front load washers under $700. From Amana, Whirlpool, Kenmore, etc… This product beat them all on paper with the existing reviews and the warranty.
We’ve had this washer for two months now and with six people in the house and we do almost 20 - 25 loads of laundery per week. This machine has performed better than our Neptune, with the cleanliness, quietness (even at the highest spin cycle) and ease of use. We wipe down the door and rubber seal after each load and leave the door open to reduce the likelihood of a smell, as we did with our old Neptune. We’ve never had problems with mold or smells.
My wife loves this product, even with the fewer wash options than our old Neptune, there are so many other pluses. So far, we are very satisfied with our purchase. But with any front-load, there is some regular minor monthly maintenance that you have to perform to keep it in top condition.
