i plan on doing a more detailed vid but time has gotten away from me the drain is behind a cover plate on the lower part of the front panel it also has a lint trap as well and yes you need a bowl or a deep pie plate or cake pan would work better
Please, I would like to know the programs that you use, i.e. for white, light and dark colors, and winter clothes such as wool, silk, kitchen and bathroom towels, and the appropriate temperatures for each type of washing, how many rinses, and how strong the squeeze is. And put powder may, if the laundry is very dirty and medium soil And you clean it every time, and you clean the washing machine with any
we don't do anything other than throw stuff in and wash it on a preset programed button that my wife set up i am planning to do a vid to explain more but we have 3 of these in the family and they are all a little different to set up i would go online to the actual company to learn more.
its stupid heavy so moving it would be imposable if you had a permanent spot for it to set you may be able to jerry rig something up but its not meant for that .
@@JunkworksGarage oh yea I wouldn’t be moving it around just putting it where the dishwasher is and I wondered if it could use the same sort of hook up as that. Thanks for the reply!
So just to get this straight this thing like dehumidifies the clothes instead of heating them? I just don't want a ton of damp warm air in the house but I assume that's not the case.
Question: My apartment does not have the washer and dryer hook up. Could I connect to sink and drain like you can with a portable ? Single mom is trying to figure something out 😭 so excuse me if a silly question
Did you have problems with washer jumping around allot? I seem to have that problem. Excessive moving around when cycling trough. thank you for your video.
@@JunkworksGarage after seeing video I don't think they remove the four pins/screws on the back when they installed I just moved in to this condo.. I wonder if that's what's causing this.. I will remove them soon.
the water lines are regular hose ends like the ones you water your lawn with you can pick up a kit for your machine at any hardware store as far as a drain it should be attached to your machine but if your talking about a drain pipe in the wall i would go 1 1/4 inch or bigger but make sure if your trying it yourself to put a p trap in the drain or you could have gasses back up
Pretty sure it have the same cold/hot water supply and drainage and a regular power outlet. If this a yes, I may have to look out for one of this combo setup to replace our gas stackable washer and dryer machine. Which end up broken, I suspect a belt or something for the top dryer load. Well pretty much bought it used.
this works the same as any other washer and dryer it needs a 110v plug hot and cold water and a drain. you don't need any venting or 220v so for an apartment it should work great
@@HEADBANGRR I will check sometime thanks so far either way it's working good so i doubt i have a problem if anything i would say its borderline too hot it has shrunk some things .
Not great we have 3 of these and i will be making a review of them but it going to take awhile to finish get a good warranty then you will be fairly happy
Is there a way to switch the direction of how the door opens? I know some washer dryers allow you to unscrew the door and switch it to open a different way.
Shouldn't buy this ventless because the lint is not blown out and still stay inside. So we have catch it and some goes into the pump and break down the pump. I have changed many pump because of it.
it definitely isn't a $100 more a month if anything considering it saves me from rewashing things because i forget to throw them in the dryer its less but in the end it's probably a wash (pun intended)
Clearly your home and mine are different. EYE pay $100 more a month on it. All comments help the persons question so go on and assist as best you can. We dk if you get paid to say anything. I don’t so shh. Also did you respond to the person? Because that should have been your main worry. Sorry you live in a studio dude.
@@jyrahmalloy1547 my mom bought it so if that's considered a paid sponsor than i guess you're right but if it cost me $100.00 more a month i would throw it out before i kept using it .
@@jyrahmalloy1547 there is absolutely no way this costs $50/wash. You are either lying for some odd reason or there are twenty lights on in your house you don’t know about.
they may come out feeling a little damp but by the time you fold them or give them a mint or two there dry it's hard to explain but there definitely not wet
in the bottom corner there is a tube and lint trap behind a flap door. these collect moisture in the bottom and have to be drained and the lint trap clean out every so often
it was already installed on the machone and the other end goes into the drain as far as the drain hose. if your talking about the fill hoses if you can hook up a garden hose it's the same
i'm honestly not sure i don't use it i am going to have to ask my wife more on how to use it and make a vid cuz i get lots of questions about it so keep an eye out for that .sorry i'm sure you could google it
we didn't download anything ,& we haven't had it stop drying in the middle i would say it's some setting that's off if you don't have a manual you can probably download one from there website
wtf dude. you didnt show it running, how to start it, how thr drain thing you complained about works. nothing. you barely showed how to install it. this is not a review.
Horrible washer. Works good when it does, but the water pump shits the bed every 4 to 6 months due to lint buildup. That's with us cleaning/draining out the front lower left lint trap once a week. Make sure you buy an extended warranty if you aren't handy. Then prepare to go without the washer/dryer a month before they can come to replace it.
@JunkworksGarage we are on our 4th pump right now, I just installed myself yesterday. We did buy an extended warranty from Hopeless Depot which is up in a few months, and just didn't want to wait the month it usually takes from us calling in the warranty to when the warranty repairman (there is only one in our area) can make it out. When the same OEM pump is on Amazon for $25. There is a cheat, most times you can change them out from the large hole underneath the bottom if you can tip it on to its back. Our LG is one of the models with the extra riser you can get that adds a bottom metal drawer for soap, etc. Had to do it the normal hard way. If we buy another of these steam washer/dryer combos of any brand, it won't be until we do as much research as possible.
@@xaGe__ this machine was replaced with a newer one it had so many problems and so far so good but the bigger one in my house i have replaced the pump on 4 times i have a vid on making the job much easier you may want to check out 👍
Excellent overview of the washer dryer combo 👍
👍
thank you... a helpful instructional! Especially the hose elbows.. will need to get some of those. cheers
👍
Thank you! My husband and I aren’t handy people at all and had no idea how we we’re going to install ours lol
👍
😂 “jack of all master of none” love it, thanks for the help
👍
Could I know what the measurement is from the width in total with the piping ?
The future looks exciting :)
No, more LG junk
Great review. Where is the drain access? Also do we need to pull it out and put a bowl under and drain? Might be an issue
i plan on doing a more detailed vid but time has gotten away from me the drain is behind a cover plate on the lower part of the front panel it also has a lint trap as well and yes you need a bowl or a deep pie plate or cake pan would work better
@@JunkworksGarage thank you!
@@dreamingcode 👍
Just out of curiosity, why didn’t you position the machine so that the door was facing the same direction as the cupboard doors?
i have vids showing the apartment this looks completely different now theirs a countertop over it and i put a dish washer next to it
Instablaster...
was wondering the same lol
yeah me too. I would have not have it sitting like that
Why does the machine keep stopping in the middle of drying?
Please, I would like to know the programs that you use, i.e. for white, light and dark colors, and winter clothes such as wool, silk, kitchen and bathroom towels, and the appropriate temperatures for each type of washing, how many rinses, and how strong the squeeze is.

@@JunkworksGarage OK thanks 🌷
Is this able to be hooked up to a kitchen sink like a dishwasher? Or do you have to have those pipes and drain open on the wall like yours?
its stupid heavy so moving it would be imposable if you had a permanent spot for it to set you may be able to jerry rig something up but its not meant for that .
@@JunkworksGarage oh yea I wouldn’t be moving it around just putting it where the dishwasher is and I wondered if it could use the same sort of hook up as that. Thanks for the reply!
@CurveTheRain I did it last week,replacing it with my GE dish washer machine. Very easy just swapped it out.Same water hose fit perfectly.
thank you!
👍
Thanks for the video. Does it work with 110 volt ?
yes
So just to get this straight this thing like dehumidifies the clothes instead of heating them? I just don't want a ton of damp warm air in the house but I assume that's not the case.
I don't know how the magic inside works but we are happy with it
Be carefull not to over dry, it will refine “shrink”!
Is this the 4.5 cu ft one? Also it comes with the hot and cold hoses?
it's the 2.3 and yes
Question: My apartment does not have the washer and dryer hook up. Could I connect to sink and drain like you can with a portable ? Single mom is trying to figure something out 😭 so excuse me if a silly question
these are way to heavy it would not be movable.
Did you have problems with washer jumping around allot? I seem to have that problem. Excessive moving around when cycling trough. thank you for your video.
theas have to be dead level in every direction or they will move around
@@JunkworksGarage after seeing video I don't think they remove the four pins/screws on the back when they installed I just moved in to this condo.. I wonder if that's what's causing this.. I will remove them soon.
@@manuel8604 if that is what happens than there is probably damage im not sure if it would run with those in thow
Probably ghost doing doing laundry when u left that’s why the the laundry machine move around
Can you help please! What sizes are water lines and drain line? it looks water line is half inch and drain line 1 inch? I cant find it in manual.
the water lines are regular hose ends like the ones you water your lawn with you can pick up a kit for your machine at any hardware store as far as a drain it should be attached to your machine but if your talking about a drain pipe in the wall i would go 1 1/4 inch or bigger but make sure if your trying it yourself to put a p trap in the drain or you could have gasses back up
Hey, Does it dry jeans and thick blankets well?
yep my mom loves it but she hasn't done any super thick blankets but she has done a twin comforter
Has it made your electricity bill go up since it takes so long to wash and dry
nope
After wash, can I stop to hang up some clothes.? And leave rest for dryer operation. Thanks
it suppose to but admittedly we have had trouble figuring it out
Hi, I love in an apartment and was wondering how this will work for gas apartment? Can I just install it the way you did it?
Pretty sure it have the same cold/hot water supply and drainage and a regular power outlet.
If this a yes, I may have to look out for one of this combo setup to replace our gas stackable washer and dryer machine. Which end up broken, I suspect a belt or something for the top dryer load. Well pretty much bought it used.
this works the same as any other washer and dryer it needs a 110v plug hot and cold water and a drain. you don't need any venting or 220v so for an apartment it should work great
what about pet hair removal? does it do as good a job, as a traditional dryer?
we have a dog and a cat and i think it does better in everything compared to our old one
Do you have any issues with water temperature? Such as, set to hot ONLY but cold water comes in initially then hot water afterwards. Thank you
not that i noticed
@@JunkworksGarage okay. Perhaps you should check and see if you're getting hot water only when when you set it to hot only. Thanks
@@HEADBANGRR I will check sometime thanks so far either way it's working good so i doubt i have a problem if anything i would say its borderline too hot it has shrunk some things .
@@JunkworksGarage okay Cool
Thinking getting one hows the long term review?
Not great we have 3 of these and i will be making a review of them but it going to take awhile to finish get a good warranty then you will be fairly happy
Why do you have to drain it occasionally?? Doesn’t it drain itself at the end of the cycle?
moister and lint build in the bottom
Idk why LG didn’t add wheels on the bottom
Is there a way to switch the direction of how the door opens? I know some washer dryers allow you to unscrew the door and switch it to open a different way.
not sure i will have to check on that
it doesn't appear that it can be switched i don't see threaded holes . but you may be able to order it that way
Does your washer dryer crease the clothes? Just a question 😅
it actually is better than other machines as far as i have owned
how long does it take to wash and dry in 1 cycle?
average 3.5 hrs it senses the weight of the load so it can vary
Shouldn't buy this ventless because the lint is not blown out and still stay inside. So we have catch it and some goes into the pump and break down the pump. I have changed many pump because of it.
I agree. Total junk!
I’ve had mine for years and never had an issue.
Would you have an idea of how much electricity it uses per month? Thank you!
it definitely isn't a $100 more a month if anything considering it saves me from rewashing things because i forget to throw them in the dryer its less but in the end it's probably a wash (pun intended)

@@Someothername2134 Did you get it all off ur chest buddy?
So does this thing wash and really dry completely or do clothes stay damp
they may come out feeling a little damp but by the time you fold them or give them a mint or two there dry it's hard to explain but there definitely not wet
now the biggest question is. does it save you electric?
i haven't noticed a difference in my bill etherway but i've noticed we aren't rewashing everything so laundry is easy to keep up on
What do you mean by draining it mate?
in the bottom corner there is a tube and lint trap behind a flap door. these collect moisture in the bottom and have to be drained and the lint trap clean out every so often
Can I plug this to my sink and drain it in the sink?
you would have to check your laws but it should work just make sure the hose is secure or it could jump out
Why is water accumulating? Shouldn't it use the same drain as the washing drain?
no it has to be drained from a tube every week or two when you clean out lint trap
Do you know what model number this unit is?
not sure but there's a big one and a small one its the small one
Can you connected to a bathroom or kitchen faucet?
if it had an adapter for a hose it would probably work but its stopped heavy so making it portable if that's your plan would be difficult
@@JunkworksGarage Thank you! I guess I will try to find something lightweight for a washer :)
How's the vibration on this washer?
not too bad slightly more than a dryer normally is
Am I able to hook this up to my sink ???
if you had an adapter it would probably work but it doesn't come with one & it is extremely heavy so it wouldn't be mobile
Do you know how to change the belt?
i don't sorry i do know the hole top unscrews and comes off farley easy on this one that might give you a better idea of ware to go from there
There is no belt. These units are direct drive.
I’m telling you that washer is heavy as hell idk why
you ante kidding there stupid heavy
I was shocked to realize they weigh so much! Like 185#?
So is it heavier that a standard washer and dryer set? Im looking at one for our rv.
Looks heavy might to but a dolly
It's very heavy
wish you had walked us thru the hose installation.
it was already installed on the machone and the other end goes into the drain as far as the drain hose. if your talking about the fill hoses if you can hook up a garden hose it's the same
Does anyone know an easier way to remove all the lint?
I have a bigger one of these i did a vid on were i show a pipe cleaner tool i use to clean it out
So these can wash for a normal family? I always thought they were mainly for small apartments & RVs
this is my moms i think it would work for 2 people fine but my family of 4 have the bigger version and it works great
@@JunkworksGarage do u mind telling me which model is the bigger version?
@@desirerodriguez8909 its the 4.5cf but im not sure of the model #
@@JunkworksGarage thank you so much!
@@desirerodriguez8909 👍
What's the model name?
all it says is lg, not sure sorry
Can’t I dry stuff without having to wash it from start ?
i'm honestly not sure i don't use it i am going to have to ask my wife more on how to use it and make a vid cuz i get lots of questions about it so keep an eye out for that .sorry i'm sure you could google it
@@JunkworksGarage Yes you can! Turn on but don't touch the dial. Hit dry and you should be good to go.
@@marionphelps THANKS 👍
How much is it?
around $1,200
this is installation not review. at least, drying time might be hours.
What is the download option for on the machine?
we didn't download anything ,& we haven't had it stop drying in the middle i would say it's some setting that's off if you don't have a manual you can probably download one from there website
Bro you are supposed to show us how you install it but you skipped that whole part
I show the 2 hoses and drain were they hook up and it sets there what else would you want to see
doesn t it shirink your clothes?
no we have been extremely happy with it
Sure does!
