disappointing experience with expensive appliance

Date of Review:  Jan 21, 2006
Review: We bought this dryer in November 05 from Home Depot in Palmdale, California, along with the matching LG washer, model # WM1227HW, reviewed today as well. It is quiet, but doesn't work well on the automatic cycles. Clothes are often still damp, and...

LG dryer

Date of Review:  Apr 2, 2006
Review: I loved the looks and got taken by the salesperson's recommendation on this product. This dryer is loud and thumpy for the first minute because the rollers flatten out between usages. I have had three service calls for this, they replaced them...

Never again

Date of Review:  Aug 14, 2008
Review: Bought a matching LG washer and gas dryer - spent way too much money. Washer's ok but the gas dryer is terrible. Sensor does not work. Clothes have to be repeatedly dried. Dry clothes on manual for hour+ and they're still damp. Gas will only ignite...

Good Looking...BUT BEWARE!!!

Date of Review:  Apr 29, 2006
Review: Both this machine and the matching WM2277H* are a disappointment. I purchased them because they were innovative and really good looking, but they do not perform. I regret blowing 2 grand on appliances I'm convinced need to be replaced and they are...

A good match for the 2277 washer.

Date of Review:  Feb 4, 2005
Review: There's not a whole lot to say about dryers. I will say the picture here on the site is incorrect. The DLG5988W has the front-mounted controls (like the 2277HW washer, so they can be stacked.

At any rate, it's got 9 cycles and 6 heat...

Works for me

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 2006
The Bottom Line: Only time will tell, but works well for us so far.
Review: I'm probably gonna jinx myself on this. I read the not so glowing reviews on this dryer, but all of the positive reviews of the 2277 washer motivated me to give the dryer a try.

Three weeks into ownership, there are no obvious major flaws...

Get the Kenmore

Date of Review:  Aug 20, 2007
The Bottom Line: wouldn't buy again,high price and cheap components
Review: I got the extended warranty for the washer but I passed on the dryer thinking they're a simple machine and I had a number of dryers and never a problem. Well not quite one month after the warranty expired the dryer drum split at the seam. I called...

Save your money!

Date of Review:  Oct 28, 2006
The Bottom Line: Shop Kenmoore and Whirlpool first. You'll save a lot of money for a better appliance. More cost isn't always better.
Review: LG certainly knows how to market. Lots of bells and whistles but how well this dryer works is another story, sorry to say.

After checking installation and important items, we were on our way. The controls on this dryer offer many different...

Propane (LP) Users Beware!

Date of Review:  Nov 20, 2006
Review: Was very excited to receive it only to find I have to spend an additional $225/- to get it to work with propane. This in spite of stating the propane version prior to purchase. LG is the only company I know that won't supply a conversion kit without...

Worst dryer ever owned

Date of Review:  Jan 15, 2007
Review: I bought this dryer with the matching washer from Best Buy 13 months ago with an extended warranty. It worked OK for five months before the electronics started failing. After six repair visits, I have had the the main circuit board and sensor...
