- The main control board of the old washer in this home failed and I needed to get a new one fast. I decided to buy an LG model since that is what I have in my personal home and it has been great!
Here are links to the washing machine on Home Depot and Lowes websites.

Hello, i bought a LG washing machine back in 2021 (new). works great, but tonight, the shower curtain I was washing (cycle finished) part of the curtain/material is stuck in/under the agitator. Any tips on how to get the rest of the material out of there? thanks
Normal Cycle is only for loads that are 4 pounds or less. Use HOT water on normal cycle and make sure the closest faucets to this washer are running hot water through the faucet so you get warm water on the hot mode in normal cycle. It does weigh your clothes but only washes them for 15 minutes and the rinse cycle is 3 minutes long; the spin will be 15 minutes and the total length with water fills is like 45 minutes. Use heavy-duty cycle (one hour 40 minutes) or deep wash (55 minutes) for most loads. Wash in warm or hot water. Use 1 tablespoon of powder detergent on the normal cycle. Use 2 tablespoons or 4 TBL. on heavy duty and deep wash. Always use laundry sanitizer in the fabric softener dispenser. Run the tub cleaning cycle monthly with Affresh or bleach or Lemi Shine. Lastly, plug it into a power strip with a power off button and plug that into a power surge protector. When done doing your loads for the day, turn off the power strip to protect the electronics from a power surge, power outage, or lightning. When not in use, keep the lid OPEN and remove the detergent tray to air it out. Wash the towels on heavy duty, hot water. Tide powder detergent is best for this machine (all the Tide powder laundry detergent work in this machine). Avoid laundry liquids and pods. Don't use fabric softener. It's a good basic machine that does clean well if you learn all of its' little weird ways. 12-14 pounds of laundry is the maximum you should put in one load. One to Four pounds of laundry is what works best in the normal cycle.
Please read multiple site reviews on this washer and believe the negative reviews. It's a terrible washing machine. I've had mine for 2 weeks and had nothing but problems.
Please tell me what kind of problems? I am so frustrated with it and only had it a few days!
Just installed it and already having problems: I press Smart Diagnosis and all the lights of the wheel light up. I can't get it to select a choice when I turn the wheel. I've unplugged it, but keeps doing the same thing, nothing. At one point I did get it to fill, but now it's got water at the bottom and I can't get it to drain, or start over. It's just not responding to anything. So now I'm trouble shooting. (update: I pressed the "water/rinse" that's next to the temp button and that seems to have reset things so that turn it to spin which it did) and now I'm about to wash my first load. After seeing how much water it put during the normal cycle and how many in the comments are disliking the water will level I'm going to try to the deep fill and deep rinse. Hopefully that's enough to just leave it there and be done with it. Oh, how I miss the old days when it was just a simple on/off/small/med/large/cold/warm/hot.... and the machine would last decades. (Update again) Very pleased with this machine so far. The real test is going to be next, when I do my queen size rather thick bedspread.
The chime is soooo bad!!!!!!
I have to use the deep fill cycle on every wash. Normal never gets all the clothes wet. How can they be cleaned if they are not all getting wet?
Similar situation, it’s washing clothes like those front load machines using little water.
just got mine last week, the clothes do not get wet and the moving around it not enough to bring them to the bottom of the tub. I argued with LG how they explain washing dry clothes. They told me to only use deep fill. Which bring the water all the way up to the brim of the tub.
@@Vali-zk3is I notice, when I use the deep fill button over on the right, it fills the tub about halfway, which is better than normal wash.. Ugh!
Normal cycle is only for one to four pounds maximum of laundry. Always use the hot water mode temperature for this cycle because it mixes in cold with hot, and you'll get warm water. If you choose warm water, your water temperature will be below 85 degrees Fahrenheit and that's cold.
@@apAvocado Thanks for the tip and info!
I got this washer today I'm on my 3rd load and I'm very pleased with this unit it works great 👍
THE BODHI12345
I received my washer today, I started a load and watched it fill water and wash but…. There was not enough water… 🤔 I messed with it to try and add some water then shut it off. And now… It won’t start. I’ve tried restarting, unplug, Re-plugged… no nothing… just a bunch of lights come on and that’s all it does. What else can I do besides returning it?
@calandrachargingeagle8852 have the same issue ! Played with the machine for 2 hours did you get working ?
did you try the deep fill option? choose it before starting your cycle selection
Saves you water but leaves you with dirty clothes.
才买的不到一个月，会被衣服掉出来小东西卡住，脱不了水了，整个洗衣桶都是水！已经修过一次，应该是又被东西卡住了，我们也不是修洗衣机的，不知道如何是好！电器东西又不能退！郁闷，钱花了，东西就用几次，质量太差了
Just got this washer 4 hours ago. Probably the only thing I dont like is no manual water size to pick like sml, med, lg. Other then that, its really nice and still worth the price.
Unfortunately, that is the trend these days. One of my tenants tell me they choose deep fill for every wash.
@@mkccventuresllc I purchased this washer a week ago, have used it for 2 separate loads, different days & I choose 'deep fill' for every wash also.!
@andrewboxer5758 I purchased this washer a week ago, have used it for 2 separate loads, different days & I choose 'deep fill' for every wash also.!
This video is not worthy to be on RUclips. Very disappointing and not helpful in anyway.
Did we really need to spend half the video watching someone take tape off of the machine?
Thanks for your brief review. Mine just arrived and did my first few loads. The agitator does not really move the clothes enough imo. the repetitive rotation is not complete enough to pull in the outer clothes to the inside and vice versa so the clothes near the drum does not get enough agitation imo. I'm having to wash things twice and in between redistribute the clothes manually. Not nearly as efficient as my older model (different brand) with a very strong agitation. I'll try more settings but if i cannot get a better clean, then I may consider returning it.
Thanks for the feedback. My unit is in a rent house so I am not able to observe it in action but the renters tell me it does just fine for them. I purchased the LG brand as that is what I have in my home although mine is a front load machine but has been great and I have had it for close to 10 years.
It's all energy saving crap
@@Efreet17 Very true. I regret buying this machine. Huge waste of time trying to get clothes clean even when they are not that dirty to begin with.
@carefulconsumer8682 I'm having the same issues. It will not complete a cycle. I would be interested in how you're getting yours to work. I've been trying to wash a load of clothes this morning for an hour. There's still no water in the tub. Fabric softener has been sitting in the compartment since I got it last week no matter what cycle I choose. It's trash.
@@tmishalynn Hi Misha, they installed my washer incorrectly so i had to remove the hoses to the water outlets and correct that. So first check the hoses on your machine if water is not coming out. But besides that, there is no way to soak your clothes like with the older models. If you pause your machine, when it restarts it adds more water and dilutes your detergent each time. i would not recommend this washer in my experience. Sorry i purchased it.
Ppl are so dense does the poster need to speak for y’all to see what he’s doing?does he need to tell y’all what a washer is and how it works or ?
Yes.... dammit spoon feed me😂😂😂
Has anyone had the led lights flash. Ie. Wash-rinse- spin and hot all flash and doesnt not want to run
Hmmmm, sounds like either a controller error or a pressure sensor error. Try unplugging the washing machine for 1 hour then try again. If it does it again, unplug the machine and turn off the water valves and call for service. (You could attempt to use the Smart Diagnosis with the LG ThinQ app and your smart phone. But I have not had much experience with that method.
My LG just came today and tested out by washing my towels. Trying to learn how to set the temp.
Wash towels on hot water on the Heavy Duty cycle.
Just got mine last week, the clothes do not get wet and the moving around it not enough to bring them to the bottom of the tub. I argued with LG how they explain washing dry clothes. The items are just swishing around left to right on top and do not get wet. LG rep told me to only use deep wash, which bring the water all the way up to the brim of the tub. So brand new machine with 6 cycles choices and I can only use deep wash to maybe get my clothes clean. This machine does not clean clothes and take anywhere between 1 to 2 hours to do so. Believe all the negative comments you read about this machine.
Siii yo la tengo la misma lavadora y no lava bien solo uso un siglo profundo es el mejor
@@MiriamMadrigal-mz7fiCuánto tiempo tarda en lavar tu lavadora ?
Quick tip! Try putting a few wet clothes in the load, this will make the whole load heavier and will fill in more water. Or just wet all dirty clothes first and then put it in the machine and see if that helps add more water to your machine after the machine weighs the clothes. This happened to us by accident but after that we use this method all the time!!! Just wet the clothes before washing and put them in the machine, they will be heavier and should add more water!
Fairly useless video. It just shows the unpacking and the turning on of the machine. No review, no pros or cons.
Are you sure deep fill can be used on all cycles except bedding? On ours, it automatically shifts from normal to deep wash after selecting deep fill.
I have the same washer and I can only wash loads on deep wash that’s it. The rest of them doesn’t fill all the way or enough. It seems like it’s washing the clothes dry with no water help.
deep fill doesn't work on any cycle except deep wash.

Can't turn off chimes. I've had it for almost a year and it stirs up my dog's anxiety and is just annoying. Who needs more noise and alarms?
I just got mine yesterday and it’s not rinsing. Clothes are still soaked.
MY GUY U MIS INSTALLED THE DRAIN HOSE😂 U DONT STUFF IT IN THERE IT WILL LEAD TO A SIPHONING EFFECT AND SEWER ORDORS GOING BACK IN
I got my LG wash machine and it’s only four years old and it’s just will not power on. It’ll only power on if I take it and pull the cord out and pull it in the morning.
Most likely it is one of two problems, 1. the door switch has gone bad. 2. the main circuit board has gone bad. The Circuit board is not recognizing that the door has been opened after the end of the last cycle, unplug and replug is resetting that so that it temporarily works. Sorry to hear that you are having this issue.
why no test mode i need to know how to properly initiate test mode
Do you happen to know how to turn off the melody that plays at the end of a cycle on this specific washer? It was cute to hear the first couple times, but after I realized it would be an annoyance more than anything.
From LG, the WT6106CW and matching DLE6100W Dryer do NOT have a way to turn off the chimes. Sorry, Apparently that was a bad decision on their part has many other appliances they make have that ability.
I just got it how do you get it to fill up all the way I put it on deep fill but it goes off on its own & how do you take the lock off for the door?
Was it on the normal cycle when you chose Deep Fill? Deep fill is not available for the normal cycle. It should change to Deep Wash. If the cycle has already started, try pausing the cycle before selecting Deep Fill. If the machine thinks that the water level is at its maximum, pressing Deep Fill will have no effect. HTH.
Sorry, I don't know how to take the door lock off.
This is the worst explanation
Mine is new already smells like electric burning
I just got this model a week ago as my old kenmore died. It will save me a ton in water as it senses the load and my old washer wasted so much water. Less water means the machine will cleans your clothes much better. Great review.
Did you plan on talking ? We saw alot of ripping off stickers.
😂
Can it be use without being in plug into a water source, like add water with a hose for example???
I would not advise it. I suspect that if you tried that it may try to wash your clothes but when it wants to add a water and can't the sensors will detect this and then throw an error code. It is designed to have the water connected, turned on and water pressure between 20 and 120psi. HTH
I have the exact washer. I dont understand the trays for the detergent side. Do i take off the bottom and only leave the top tray for liquid detergent ?? Or the other way around?
First of all, If you are using gel packs or tablets, they should be placed in the bottom of the washer BEFORE adding the clothes and you should only use 1 per load. That is a suttle instruction that is often overlooked in the user manual. If you are using liquid detergent, then leave the blue parts in the right side in place, the if you are using powdered detergent then removed the Liquid Detergent Cup AND Insert. (i,e,, both blue parts on the right side). HTH
Were you able to get the ThinQ app to work? I can't seem to get mine to talk to my machine.
I haven't tried to set up the ThinQ app with my machine. The machine has been working just fine, so I haven't had a reason to try it out. This machine is in a rental unit, otherwise I would give it a try for you.
I can’t get it to connect either
What do you mean water level adjusts to size of load? How do you select load size or does it sense it?
It senses the load. When you turn it on, the rocking back and forth is the process of the machine sensing the load to determine how much water to use. You can see this in the video from about 3:20 - 4:20. I hope this helps. :)
I guess I am confused as to the point of this video? We just bought this model, and I thought this was like an opinion video or something?
The intent is to show the features and sound of the machine before it is purchased. Having just purchased this machine myself, I haven't had time to determine its reliability. Although I do have a LG washer Dryer pair that I have used for about 8 years. That is why I purchased this LG. The renters have reported that it has been working great so far.
For people to see how it works. If you don't need the info don't respond and keep scrolling or click off smh.
We just purchased this one and it will be coming in a couple of days which is
good.
is it okay for apartments or house only ?
Does anyone know how to run the test cycle on this model?
Using the LG thinQ app, follow the instructions on page 29 of the user manual.
No talking instructions, what's the point?
How long does a load usually take? 30 mins? 45 mins?
The run time varies depending upon which cycle is chosen, temp, extra rinse and how big the load is etc. But in general the NORMAL cycle takes about 1 hour, DELICATE cycle about 40 minutes, HEAVY DUTY and BEDDING cycle about 1.5-1.75 hours and the SPEED WASH cycle is about 15 minutes. HTH
Where do you put it so that it can add more water?
Pressing the water/rinse button several times (until Deep Fill is lit up) should activate Deep Fill. Unfortunately, you don' have the option to just add a gallon or two like some washers do. If the cycle has already started you may need to pause it. Here is a link with more detail - www.lg.com/ca_en/support/product-support/troubleshoot/help-library/cs-CT20098067-20153280091176/
I hope this helps.
I prefer a washing machine with small medium and large water level settings
Just bought so far so good
How do you get yours to complete a cycle? Does it only wash on warm water/deep fill like mine?
I want to see this thing operating, can you make some videos of it running? I'd like to see the normal cycle
I wished I could do that for you. But this is in a rental unit, so I cannot do that.
@@mkccventuresllc Ok, thank you!
just purchased this one today and supposed to be delivered in a couple of days. I hope it is reliable.
is there a SOAK option?
Sorry, there is not a built-in soak option, If you run the heavy duty cycle, it will pause for 2 minutes one or more times during the cycle. I believe you can run the deep wash cycle and pause the machine and set a timer for however long you wish the items to soak and then unpause the machine. But that is a lot of manual steps.
That's a big drawback of this model imo. The SOAK option is so important, at least for me. It's very effective.
Soak option is part of the Heavy Duty cycle. That cycle is like one hour and forty minutes. Clothes come out very clean with just 4 tablespoons of powder detergent. Always use warm or hot water. Cold water does not dissolve body oils and funk.
Je veux savoir comment mettre ma laveuse en marche
After pushing the power but to turn on and turning the dial to the selected cycle, "push and hold" the start button for 3 seconds. It should start.
Pathetic. I learned nothing. Need something to talk and explain why normal mode sucks and what to do about it.
Mine doesn't work properly either. I've had it for almost 2 weeks and it's the most awful washing machine I've ever seen. It will only wash clothes on warm and won't finish a load. The clothes sit on water with the lights flashing. I have to turn it off and choose the spin only cycle to get it to get the water out. DON'T BUY THIS WASHER!
