    LG WashTower Single Unit, 2 Drums

    If I remember correctly....... .....didn't Electrolux make a big deal about their reversing dryers 10 or 15 years, ago? Recall the sales people at Lowes making a big deal about it.

    LG Front Load Washer

    Thanks Everyone..... Seems like sweat is often included in lists of protein stains. That's what is throwing us off. Powerfin64.....can you give us some examples of how you utilize the washer steam cycles? We thought LG would have recommended steam for some types of stain removal, but not...

    LG Front Load Washer

    Downloaded Cycles We're intrigued by some of the listed cycles, but don't quite know what to make of some of them. For instance, noticed the "Juice & Food Stains" and "Collars & Cuffs" cycles utilize hot water. Was taught that hot water sets these types of stains, rather than remove them...

    LG Front Load Washer

    We Figured It Out...... After much trial & error, we have fallen in love with our new LG pair. Most everyone contributed; but, special thanks go to Powerfin64, Golittlesport, & Mark for their Helpful Hints on how to live with the dryer. Sorry if we left anyone out. For most everything, we...

    New Whirlpool Dishwasher Questions

    A Damn Good Dishwasher....... .....these days, this seems to be Whirlpool's strong suit. If our GE Profile Triton ever decides to fail, we would be willing to go back to one of the Whirlpool variants. The Triton is still going strong since 2002. Only replaced 2 sumps over nearly 20 years...

    LG Front Load Washer

    Cool Down...... Whether our old Whirlpool is a sensor or Auto-Dry, one thing is abundantly clear. Whirlpool seems to have placed a lot of thought into the cool-down phase. Seems like the heat cycle gradually ramped down. By the time the cycle ended, the cloths were very pleasant to the touch...

    LG Front Load Washer

    powerfin64......... ....thanks for the info. We finally stumbled upon the "enhanced" users manual by scanning the QR code. Even that one states "Do not select a cycle." We tried it your way, and it works perfectly. Thanks.

    LG Front Load Washer

    Forgot to mention...... ......None of the written instructions for the washer rinse & spin or the two dryer self-tests actually work on our units. Makes you wonder.

    LG Front Load Washer

    If I had to guess........... ......I'd say our old Whirlpool was one of the higher-end Auto Dry models, as Vacerator has suggested. One thing I left out is that we dried most of our clothes on low heat, with the dryness set close to the midpoint between dry & very dry. Towels were dried on...

    LG Front Load Washer

    Auto Dry? Our 28-year old Whirlpool is equipped with the DRY-MISER sensor in the drum. Didn't realize the Auto Dry's were still made. One thing to remember is the dryness level on this dryer is adjusted with the timer knob, with no detents. Theoretically, seems like you could fine-tune the...

    LG Front Load Washer

    Energy Saver Option........ .....appears to be turned off by default on our DLGX4201. If powerfin64 has the same model, perhaps he could chime in. We picked up a small bottle of the Tide With-A-Touch-Of Downy, today. Will see how that goes. So far, we have washed with one extra rinse on...

    LG Front Load Washer

    We stopped using fabric softener a long time ago, then had great success with the sheets in the Whirlpool. We'll stop using the sheets in the LG, especially since one already got past the drum seal. Pulled on it, but it ripped. Imagine some repairman will find the rest of it, one day. So...

    LG Front Load Washer

    Our 1st impression....... ....is that the washer may be OK, but the dryer probably isn't. Clothes out of the dryer seem underdone, or overdone. Guess the old Whirlpool spoiled us. Only way to approximate the performance of the Whirlpool is to run a separate steam cycle on the LG. Then, the...

    I Apologize To The Members........ ,,,,,for my response. There is a history between ourselves and the respondent; but, that is no excuse. Thanks.

    LG Front Load Washer

    We Knew This Was Coming...... Years ago, we already figured out that Combo52 believed he owned this site. That's Ok. All he has to do is travel to Peoria , Il. He can sit right next to us on our barstools. The wife, a noted college professor, mentioned she is willing to arm wrestle for...

    LG Front Load Washer

    Can't speak for the mom & pops, but believe most of the larger companies' requirements are similar these days. Only thing left for me to do is install a longer nipple on the output of the gas shut-off. Believe HD requires 5 or 6 inches. Once we found out the delivery agent will leave the...

    LG Front Load Washer

    powerfin64......... Yeah, we were aware of the long laundry list (no pun intended) of unnecessary parts, but the dryer power cord caught us off guard. We're fully capable of installing everything ourselves, but the invoice clearly states the dryer will be left in the box unless they install...
