What to look for when choosing?
When buying a washing machine, you need to take into account not only its appearance, the color of the body and the capacity of the drum. The size of household appliances and the availability of additional programs and options are of decisive importance.
Dimensions
LG washing machines vary in size. They are divided into:
-
Standard. This is a full-size household appliance; its width, height and depth are 600 x 580 x 560 cm.It may change slightly in one direction or another, depending on the model, but these fluctuations will be insignificant. The depth is always 60 cm.
- Narrow. The more spacious, the greater the depth of the device. Approximate dimensions: 600 x 850 x 440 cm.
- Super narrow. The manufacturer offers a choice of 2 models with a depth of 360 cm. Loading capacity is 4 kg.
Device control
You can control your LG washing machine in 3 ways:
- Mechanical. To select a program, water temperature and spin speed, you must turn the controller.This type of control is found in older, inexpensive models.
- Electronic. In this case, all settings are made using buttons. The information will be displayed on the board.
- Touch. The device is controlled using a sensitive display. Cars with touch controls are more expensive than regular models.
Volume of the tank
The capacity of the tank determines how many items can be washed in one cycle. In the technical specifications, this indicator will be indicated as the drum load in kilograms. The calculation is always based on the weight of cotton fabrics.
If there are few things, then it is better to opt for a compact device, which will save water consumption.
Additional functions
In an effort to improve its equipment, the washing machine manufacturer LG equips its models with additional functions. They are designed to make working with the device easier, safer and more comfortable. Latest implemented technologies:
-
Steam treatment. This function allows you to get rid of allergens, viruses and bacteria on things.With its help, foreign odors are removed from the fabric. After this treatment, the material becomes softer and easier to iron.
- Child lock. You can choose a device with protection against accidental pressing. Enabling this function allows you to avoid changing the program while the loop is running.
- AI DD. This technology allows you to determine the type of fabric. The machine is able to recognize more than 20,000 different combinations of fibers. Thanks to accurate analysis, the quality of washing increases significantly.The device independently selects and configures the optimal program.
- LG ThinQ. This technology allows you to control the device from a smartphone. The application significantly expands the capabilities of household appliances.
- Quick washA. In just half an hour, things can be refreshed. This short program is ideal for busy people.
- Leak protection and foam control. Two functions that ensure correct operation of the device.
Drive: belt or direct
LG washing machines use two types of drive: belt and inverter. In the first case, the drum is set in motion by the rotation of a belt, which is connected to the motor, and in the second, the engine starts it in motion directly.
There are fewer parts that rub against each other and are subject to wear, which increases their service life. Cars with an inverter motor are more expensive than those with a belt motor.
With and without drying
The laundry is wrung out in the machine by rotating the drum. The higher the speed, the drier the products will be. Home appliance manufacturer LG offers to purchase devices the maximum speed of revolutions in which is:
- 1000.
- 1200.
- 1400.
If the user does not have the time and place where he could dry washed clothes, it is rational to purchase a device that accelerates to maximum speed.
Separately, you can find on sale machines with drying. The laundry will be completely free of moisture, but the device will do this in a different way. Air is supplied to the drum, which “knocks” water out of the fabric.
Drying machines are more expensive, but they are practical to use.The manufacturer LG offers 18 models equipped with this option.
When deciding to purchase a machine with a dryer, you need to take into account that it will be weaker than in separate dryers. When this function is enabled, the cycle lengthens. It will not be possible to wash it. The load of laundry for drying has been reduced by 1.5 times.

Helpful information
Tips for choosing LG washing machine:

- Families with small children are better off choosing devices with a steam function.
- If there is nowhere to dry things, then a device with a dryer will be the optimal solution. In other cases, a technique in which the drum accelerates to 1000 rpm is sufficient. This speed is enough to solve most problems.
- For a family of 2-3 people, a device with a drum capacity of 5-7 kg is enough.
- More economical devices of class A and higher.They consume approximately 30% less electricity than class B devices.
