Quiet enough to forget it's running and thorough enough to handle daily loads, but condensation drying leaves plastics and cup bottoms wet every single time. The rack tines sit too close together for thick stoneware or oversized plates, and a handful of pump failures just after the warranty expires. If you're willing to towel off stragglers and your dishes are standard-sized, it's a sensible buy at half the cost of premium models. If bone-dry results matter or you own chunky dinnerware, the daily annoyance will wear you down.
This is LG's attempt to make a top-loader feel modern, huge 5.5 cu. Ft. Tub, 29-minute TurboWash cycles, smart alerts, but it can't escape the physics problem all impeller washers share: clothes float above the waterline on heavy loads and come out half-cleaned. You'll burn extra rinse cycles chasing detergent residue off dark clothing, and the agitator fins tear within two years even under light use. Buy it if you need top-loading convenience and can live with mediocre cleaning on work jeans or gym clothes; skip it if a front-loader fits your laundry room, because one at this price will simply wash better.
