LG Washing Machine

What to Consider When Choosing an LG Washing Machine?

Size and capacity matter. For couples or a small apartment, a 7-8 kg front-load LG washer may be perfect. For families, look at 9-10 kg or larger capacities to handle bulky bedding and frequent loads.

Front-load vs. top-load. Front-load LG washers are typically more water- and energy-efficient and stack well with a matching dryer, while top-load models can be convenient for quick loads and easier access in tight spaces.

Energy efficiency is key. Look for Energy Star certified LG washers with inverter motors for quieter operation and lower operating costs over time.

Wash programs and fabric care. AI DD technology reads fabric types to optimize wash actions, while TurboWash, TurboWash 360, steam cycles, sanitizing and allergen options help tackle tough stains and sensitive fabrics.

Smart features. LG ThinQ app compatibility enables remote start, status notifications, and diagnostic tips. Some models work with Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa for hands-free control.

Space and installation. Check dimensions and whether the model is stackable with an LG dryer using a stacking kit, and ensure proper ventilation and water line connections.

What Are the Most Popular Types of LG Washing Machines?

Front-load LG washing machines with stainless steel drums are among the most popular due to efficiency, gentle fabric care, and powerful spin speeds that reduce drying times.

Top-load LG washers offer convenient loading access and can be ideal for smaller spaces where stacking isn’t feasible, with many models still delivering strong energy performance and reliable cleaning.

How to Maintain an LG Washing Machine?

Run the self-cleaning cycle regularly to prevent residue buildup in the drum and gasket. Wipe the door seal and detergent drawer to avoid mold and mildew, especially in humid climates.

Use high-efficiency (HE) detergent in appropriate amounts to protect the drum and sensors. Avoid overloading the drum, which can compromise cleaning performance and wear on components.

Leave the door or dispenser drawer open briefly after cycles to air-dry and reduce moisture. Periodically check hoses for wear and replace them if you notice bulges or leaks.

Keep your LG washing machine running smoothly with regular maintenance and by using compatible accessories, such as stacking kits and properly rated power outlets.

What Are the Benefits of LG TurboWash, AI DD, and Smart Technology?

TurboWash technology reduces cycle times while maintaining thorough cleaning, helping you finish laundry faster without sacrificing results. AI DD adapts wash actions to fabric types, improving care for clothes and extending their life.

Steam cycles provide deep cleaning and odor elimination, which is helpful for heavily soiled loads, bedding, and allergen reduction. Smart technology via LG ThinQ enables remote monitoring, notifications, and occasional software updates that improve performance over time.

Energy efficiency, quiet operation, and durable design make LG washers a reliable cornerstone of a modern home. Combined with a compatible LG Dryer, they form an effective laundry pairing designed to save space and time.

Can I Pair an LG Washer with an LG Dryer?

Yes. LG washers are designed to pair with LG dryers, and many models are stackable with the proper stacking kit. When choosing, consider the dimensions and weight of both units to ensure a stable stack, proper venting (for vented dryers), or ventless configurations where applicable.

Staging a laundry area with a matching LG dryer can maximize efficiency and simplify control through the LG ThinQ app. Always verify compatibility for your specific models and consult Best Buy Canada’s installation guides or services for professional setup.

How to Choose Capacity for Your Family?

For a single person or couple, 7-8 kg capacities are often sufficient for daily loads and smaller spaces. Families with children or frequent bedding changes usually benefit from 9-10 kg or larger capacity machines to handle bulkier items and larger loads without washing multiple times a week.

If you frequently wash bulky items like comforters, consider a higher capacity model with a larger door opening and a robust spin speed. In open layouts, a quieter, high-efficiency model ensures a comfortable living environment while laundry runs.
