So our brand new LG dishwasher blew out its control board after 15 months. 3 months out of warranty. LG's helpful response? "We'll be happy to connect you with a local repair guy". Cost to repair? $600! Bought a new GE dishwasher down at Home Depot instead for the same price. This is the one time I wish I'd bought an extended warranty. This was a nice DW, very quiet and seemed to handle our dirty dishes with no problem, but this experience has really soured me on the LG product line.

Andre Rog sorry to hear that. The repair bill is outrageous. I’d have purchased new as well rather than pay that exorbitant amount.

yep. after nearly 2 & half years... the control panel does not work. expensive repair. would never buy any LG product ever again... Yeah... looks awesome, if you want a non working dishwasher. next time I will just purchase the cheapest tall tub from Frigidaire with a Dial operation. LG... your dishwasher is a total Joke.. and it is not funny. 799 US Dollars... lasts maybe 2 to 3 years. Zero Value.

Thank you! Recently started using this model in a new to me home. Was frustrated. After watching your video found out the bottom rack was inserted backwards making it difficult to pull the rack in and out. I’ll check out a few more features now.

Glad you're happy with it, we're not so lucky. Lower rack replaced under warranty for rust. After the one year warranty was up the upper rack started to rust and it's almost done at this point. Owned it for 2.5 years. Rack replacement is over $200 CAD. We paid about $600 CAD for the whole machine. What good is a ten year motor warranty when a bad rack will render it useless?

I've found drying pretty good....above 95%....once the program ends, wait for 3-5 mins & then open the door slightly for around 5-10mins to let the steam slowly escape & then open fully

You are actually supposed to keep the door closed for a longer period of time which allows the accumulated heat to evaporate excess water after the cycle has completed.

I have it operating in my video. Mine has no buzzing. It is so quiet that sometimes I don't know if it's running or not. Mine does have an odor when running though... sort of smells like burning electrical but I'm thinking it's the "new car smell." I do plan to contact LG soon though just to be sure there isn't an issue.

I got this model in black stainless a little less than 2 months ago. I am concerned that in addition to it always being wet, I feel warm air and sometimes a smell when I open the door; even 2 days after use. I'm afraid it could be a breeding ground for mold. Have you had that experience?

@@michaelerbreviews Thanks for your reply. I use a rinsing agent, but it is not the Finish brand. It stays wet even after the dishes sit over night with the door never opened. Using the dry cycle helped, but still not completely dry. I'm the dish loader and my dad is the unloader. He hates it! He keeps saying I should reinstall the one that we moved to the basement. I'll try switching to Finish to see if that helps.

I have used both Bosch and LG dishwashers, both with condense dry cycles. While both do a good job, I think the LG does a better dry with the "Night Dry" cycle, which occasionally blows regular air into the dishwasher after the cycle is finished. Helps remove the humidity and facilitate better drying.

I just purchased this LG for my mom after doing some research. I think it's going to be good. (I love my LG washer, dryer & fridge) I have a Bosch, no heating element either. Everything comes out completely dry except some of the plastic. The water gets so hot that the dishes dry quickly. I'm glad there's no heating element...no more burned up plasticware! (I also use Finish and my Bosch has a built in water softener) I expect the LG will do a good job. Got the 5 year extended warranty too.

A "water Hammer Aresstor" will fix that. $20 on Amazon. You can get them in "Compression Tee" version so all you do is cut the plastic water line, assenble with a pair of small wrenches. Be sure to get the right size, cut the pipe properly, don't over tighten and check connection over several hours to be sure its not leaking. Here is a link but I'm hot saying for sure this will fit your water line. www.amazon.com/EFIELD-MH-231-2-FM-Hammer-Arrestor-Female/dp/B08KGLG7YM/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=dishwasher+water+hammer+arrestor&qid=1626041903&sr=8-3

No. There is a "control lock" but that only prevents settings from being changed during the cycle. This is from the user guide: Q: What is Control Lock and how is it activated? A: Control Lock is a feature that prevents the controls from being changed during the cycle. It does not prevent the door from being opened or the unit from being powered off. To activate or deactivate, press and hold Half Load and Energy Saver simultaneously for three seconds.

Did you have issues with dishes not drying? We just bought ours ... slightly different model but pretty much the same. We have the handle in the front but all else seems to be the same. We do use alot of plasticware: cups, plates, tupperware, etc. Could that be the problem? TIA :-)
@michaelerbreviews
@michaelerbreviews Жыл бұрын
Could be part of the problem. Also you must let the drying take place over the course of several hours after it has completed running. It uses the residual heat inside to complete the drying process. Plastic of course does not retain heat in the same way as glass thus may be part of the issue you are having.
