LG LDTS5552S QuadWash TrueSteam Dishwasher

Overview

Not a front control model, the LG LDTS5552S hides its push buttons along the top edge of the door, leaving a clean stainless face once installed. Inside, four spray arms wash from several directions, steam helps with spots, and the door opens itself at cycle end.

Low noise and four way spray coverage aim this machine at open plan kitchens and evening loads. Steam and the self opening door work on the spots and damp plastics that often come out of a dishwasher wet. The cycle list is short, with turbo and express as the named options.

Who it's for

Households replacing a standard built-in unit in a kitchen open to a living space gain quiet running and a third rack for utensils. Buyers who like front panel status at a glance should look at a front control design.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Cleaning depends on spray coverage, and arms rotating in different directions reach dishes that a single lower arm leaves shadowed. Drying relies on steam to cut spotting and on the door opening at the end so moist air escapes instead of condensing on plastics. Loading matters: blocking an arm path cuts coverage for the whole rack.
