Allergiene™
Allergiene™cycle is proven to reduce certain allergens such
as house dust mites and domestic animal dander.
SteamFresh™
LG's innovative SteamFresh™cycle makes it possible for
you to refresh and reduce wrinkles in up to 5 garments at
one time. Running late for work with no time to iron? Load
a cotton blend shirt into the SteamWasher™and select the
SteamFresh™cycle. You'll be ready to go in just 20 minutes.
Intelligent Electronic Controls
with Blue LCD Display
Intuitive controls allow you to 'set it and go'. The large LCD
display provides instructions and diagnostics while keeping
you updated on the cycle status and time remaining.
Remote Monitor Ready
LG's Remote Monitoring System makes it easier to keep tabs
on your laundry. Simply plug the modem into any outlet in
your home and it communicates with the machine to display
the time remaining in the cycle. Whether you're putting
away groceries or relaxing with a good book, you'll know
how much time is left. Your repeated trips to the laundry
room are over.
Stackable or Side by Side?
Your Choice. Less space? Try stacking the washer and dryer.
More space? Place them side by side or under a counter.
Don’t want to bend down so far to load or unload clothing?
Add our 13.7" high drawer pedestals. They're also a great
place to store laundry products.
