Purchase a qualifying LG product and register it through ThinQ app to receive a free 1 Year Extension on Manufacturer Warranty, valued up to $185. Rebate form must be postmarked by 2/28/2025.

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 great - when it works.

Tom75757 8/19/2024

We bought this dryer 8 months ago. It works very well - when it works. A couple of weeks ago I found the dryer in a state with the interior light on and non-responsive to the power button. I had to turn the breaker off and back on to reset the unit where it was back to normal. I tried to duplicate the issue by opening the door and turning the dryer off and it once again became non-responsive with the interior light on and all controls dead. I duplicated this issue twice so I scheduled a service call. However the dryer started working before the service date and I the technician said I had to cancel it. Obviously my concern is that this issue will return sometime after the remaining 4 months of warranty. The unit definitely has an issue with a weak component or bad connection.

AI cycle is wonderful

Mary Leilani 4/30/2024

I bought this dryer along with an LG washer approximately 1 1/2 months ago and have been so very pleased with its performance. When in doubt on which cycle to use the AI cycle has never failed me in safely dryer my clothes. The dryer is so quiet that it doesnt disturb my activities at home. Id wholeheartedly recommend this dryer

Nice Dryer Arrived Broken

MomKate22 4/2/2024

The dryer works fast and dries efficiently but getting one delivered that doesnt have an imperfection may be an issue. The first dryer we received clunked when it spun it was quickly exchanged for a completely new dryer. The next one worked silently but the door hinge was incorrect causing air loss and lint to escape. Its under warranty and LG sent a wonderful man who has been working to make it right but with back ordered parts and scheduling its been a hassle. Again the dryer works well and is very nice looking I would just make sure I inspected it well before accepting one.

Great Appliance

ApplianceLover 2/28/2024

In May 2023 we bought the LG 7.4 cu. ft Dryer along with the LG 4.5 cu. ft Washer. Both appliances have so far functioned excellently and they provide more features than I probably will ever use but at the same time quick settings that are ideal for most needs But even tweaking the standard settings is very easy. The Dryer developed a crack in the frame of the lint filter which was replaced by LG in a very short period of time and without any fuzz. So I also like customer service I am very happy with both appliances and would purchase them again. Is there anything that could be improved upon? Of course there almost always is. The sensor buttons for on/off and go/pause are too easily triggered by just leaning over the appliances for instance. Real push buttons would probably be better. Secondly the light goes on in both appliances when they are finished which is great. However even if I try to get to the appliances right away often times the light does not stay on long enough to unload them. 30 to 60 seconds more would be very helpful - another option is to trigger a time interval when the door is opened.

Great dryer but we had two install problems

MelNK 2/3/2024

Our new dryer is easy to use and dries our clothes about two times faster than our previous dryer. We did have some issues upon installation that were quickly addressed. First we had to switch the door hinges so the door opened from the right side rather than the left. Second we had to by and install a low profile offset dryer connector because the position of the exhaust vent of our old dryer was 6 inches to the left of the position of the new dryer exhaust vent. I wish someone had told us that before we ordered the dryer -- but fortunately all is fine now.

First time owner/user of LG washer

Zebra3 12/4/2023

First time owner of an LG product of any kind. Purchased a washer/dryer pair for a new house because the brand was consistently rated high or highest in a national consumer testing magazine. Not a fan of the ThinQ. Have no interest in operating my dryer with an app. Three months in and unit is quiet efficient and fast drying. Time will tell but very pleased so far.

Tangled Clothes.

LINT collects on dryer door instead of in trap

ConCooper 9/19/2023

The DRYER DOOR gasket is FLAWED. Lint collects on bottom rim of door seal and the actual bottom rim of dryer itself. This problem apparently has been noticed for several YEARS in other LG dryer models. WHAT the HECK??? Someone on one of the sites purchased weatherstrip seal to put around the rim. THIS is ridiculous. I would like LG to fix this dryer seal problem. Apparantly a gap between the drum and dryer door. LG can you fix this for me???????/ This wont let me upload images

Shantu Patel 7/30/2023

Ordered this Model thru Best Buy about 3 weeks go and have found that it is very efficient in drying even Large loads effectively such that clothes come out feeling soft and easy to fold with few creases. Wish we had ordered the Corresponding Washer that goes with the dryer.
