A roomy 7.4 cu ft dryer with AI sensors, steam cycles, and smart-home hooks that one owner called the best they'd owned for quiet operation and capacity. The filter assembly feels cheap, and LG dryers broadly have scattered control-board failures (one viral post described a unit that ran nonstop for four weeks when the relay stuck) plus rhythmic clicking noises some trace to drum design. If you draw a good unit, you'll likely get years of quiet, spacious service; if you don't, you're stuck in LG's slow warranty queue with no data proving this model dodges the category's quality-control lottery.
A feature-rich gas dryer with genuinely useful AI sensing and steam dewrinkling that works well day-to-day, until the control board relay sticks in the on position and the drum spins indefinitely through the night. The relay failure is documented across multiple units: the dryer ignores the cycle end, ignores the door opening, and keeps tumbling until you unplug it. The fix is a $70 board and a YouTube video, so it's survivable if you're handy, but it's the kind of flaw that makes you second-guess the whole appliance. If you want the capacity and smart features and don't mind occasional DIY repairs, it's capable. If you want a dryer that just stops when it's supposed to, buy something simpler.
