Overview
Reaching the bottom of a big top-load tub is the problem EasyUnload addresses, giving this LG washer a more ergonomic reach without shrinking capacity. Built-in AI selects wash settings, and touch controls with an LED display pair with a SlamProof glass lid.
Mega capacity in a top loader means fewer loads for bedding and family laundry, and the long motor warranty adds confidence. Spin speed, a cycle list and noise figures are all missing from the listing.
Who it's for
Families who prefer loading from the top but dislike bending deep into a tall tub get a more comfortable reach. Shoppers wanting stainless inside should note the drum material is listed as plastic or enamel-coated steel.
Pros and cons
- Large tub for bulky loads
- EasyUnload eases reaching the bottom
- AI selects wash settings
- Long direct drive motor warranty
- Spin speed not listed
- Drum material is not stainless
- Cycle list barely described
Performance notes
Cleaning relies on the TurboWash feature, which the listing credits with a powerful yet gentle clean on a short cycle, plus AI settings matched to the load. A direct drive motor turns the drum without a belt. Without a spin speed, how damp clothes leave the tub is unknown.
