LG WT8400CW 5.5 Cu. Ft. White Mega Capacity Smart Top Load Washer w/ EasyUnload

I just purchased this unit and already love it I just purchased this unit and already love it! I had one just like it before and had to leave it with the sale of my house. back with LG and appreciate how well it cleans the clothes. it's also a very quiet unit just takes care of business. I love the huge capacity and ability to do large items is bedding and rugs and such. no trips to the laundromat for me!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago, the clothes come up really clean. I wish it had more functions. The only thing I don’t like it that after done with the cycle there is some water left on the softer and liquid soap dispenser

The washer works well and quiet. They only drawback, is the detergent (liquid) does not dispense all of the detergent. After every load, there is residual detergent and water left in the dispenser.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Horrible. The little spin thing is not strong enough to clean anything. I would be better off spinning it by hand. I've uploaded a video for yall to see

We've had this washer/gas dryer for just under a year. I wish I would have repaired my 15 year old Bosch dryer instead of buying LG. Washer is ok but the dryer is the worst. It literally takes 3 hours to dry a load of 6 towels. Buyers remorse immediately.

Since day 1 this machine has not cleaned well. We're always having to rewash clothes because some don't get rinsed well, some end up with a strong smell, and some simply don't get wet at all. We're using far more water and still don't have very clean clothes. Both times with help chat have taken hours and only gone through the same basic steps you find with a search online with zero results. The last time kept insisting I clean the machine to remove build up. We've had the machine for 3 months and it's never done the job. We're running cleaning tabs through the clean tub cycle and following the instructions for loads. Still mostly a waste of time and resources. Higher water bill, higher electricity bill, fewer wearable clothes and usable materials.

I chose this specific washer because I have a very high laundry load and needed the large capacity drum. It does NOT handle a large load, smaller than the front loader I replaced. It will NOT spin out a load, goes into error mode with almost every load. Have to reset to manual spin. This is also causing my drying time to increase. Very disappointed!

This washer can cause serious harm! The top base and lid easily creates deep cracks. We have had our washer for under two years. The top base and lid have developed multiple cracks - some are deep cracks and can cause serious harm if you are not careful loading items. The cracks have caused the lid to start slamming shut. Pieces of the machine have ended up in the drum of the washer.

Do not buy this washer. It has great features like large capacity and an agitator. BUT it has a cheap chintzy low quality detergent distribution container that breeds mold!! Totally unreasonable for a top loader. This detergent distributor slants back so it retains liquid and you have to remove it to dry it. Plus instructions state you have to remove it to clean it. Try to remove this cheap plastic part!!! You have to force it out of the washer - depress the cheap plastic tab then jiggle the tray - and just as it feels as if it will snap apart - grab it and pull with all your might Horrible. Then clean and scrub and disinfect it then dry it before replacing it in the washer. Normal wash cycle defaults to Hot water. Have to change it each time. HE detergents say to use cold water! And the AI cycle. Who needs it! Complexity for no reason. Just give us a gentle cycle Oh and if you like to fold the dried laundry in a small laundry room - you can't pile it on the washer or the dryer - because LG has the lids slanted and the folded clothes just roll off. Bad bad design overall.

Bought washer on 11-March-2026. Failed on 8-April-2026. Call center couldn't help much and have to get a service tech out. Through the troubleshooting, we discover the LG installer reversed the hot and cold water. Washer just gets stuck on filling the machine even when trying to run a spin only cycle.
