Big time saver

Do laundry a little less often. With 7.3 cubic feet of capacity, this dryer handles really large loads. Saving you time and energy.


A revolutionary spin on laundry.

LG puts a modern design spin on the traditional top load laundry pair. By moving the control panel from the back to the front, the buttons and LED display are easier to read and use. This simple change makes for a more intuitive and functional design and a look that is unlike anything you've ever seen.


Get wise

If you ever experience an issue with your LG dryer, you don't have to worry. The SmartDiagnosis feature helps the service center diagnose problems over the phone, or with a simple app on your smart phone, helping you minimize costly, inconvenient service calls.


Keep it quiet

There's no need for laundry to be noisy. Thanks to LG's LoDecibel operation, chances are you may not even notice it.


Stay Efficient.

The FlowSense Duct Clogging Indicator will tell you when it's time to clean the ducts out. Clean ducts mean a great drying every time.

Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Works fine overall but several sfrustrations

MikeKC 5/27/2021

Overall the dryer has done what we asked it to - dried our clothes. There have been two specific frustrations along the way however. 1. the standard automatic dry sensor seems to always leave our clothes damper than we like so we must do an additional cycle. Instead weve just been using timed dry modes. 2. We intended to use a pedestal with this dryer. LG lists a compatible pedestal. We ordered it only to discover the feet are longer front-to-back than the pedestal allows. We called LG see frustration #3 where support confirmed initially that was the correct pedestal. Only after repeated calls did we discover that the LG documentation is incorrect and they have no compatible pedestal. 3. LG customer support was VERY disappointing. We called twice and were hung up on during the transfer to a live agent. The third time we were able to speak to someone and were told we had the correct pedestal. After trying again we called again and were hung up on again. We finally called the firth time and were able to confirm with the rep - after sending him pictures of the issue - that LG was wrong and they dont actually have the pedestal. See the attached picture for confirmation of the problem.

And our repairman told me that LG was aware of this problem and wont do anything to help people that run into this problem Not good customer service Very disappointed in LG

Not Quite what I expected

Nanamoon 3/28/2020

This dryer works fine but its not quite what I expected. The top is thin metal that has bent in one place. The drying time rarely gets clothes completely dry. Im not sure I would buy it again but it handles my needs pretty well.
