    First their phones, now this? Does LG only want to be known as the company that makes great TVs and shit appliances?

      Depends on the appliance. For example, LG dishwashers have good track records.

      Different manufacturers excel at making different things. Don’t shop by brand, that’s how you get stuck with a lemon. Read the product reviews and expect different brands to be better at different things.

      Have one of their smaller model washers for the past ten years. Zero complaints.

        You don’t mind the stench? Their washers are notoriously stinky because water gets trapped where it shouldn’t. I had to clean mine every week.

          I have a small front loader, F12B8NDA

          I leave the door on it open between washing cycles.

          It’s a non-iot device that I can program to start the wash cycle at specific times, E.g. Load it in the evening but start at 4am so it’s ready by 7am. Yes, cycles are long but it’s super efficient with both electricity and water use. It’s also very quiet even during spin.

          It plays a cute chime when finished.

      Literally what they’ve been since the 1940s… Shitty black and white Goldstar TVs from your local pharmacy.
