LG-F8068LDP / 1 - 5.5kg / Front loader / Inverter Direct Drive motor
Brought home in 2014(Feb). 2 year 4 months of service review.
This is rather a small to mid size machine suitable for nuclear to small families. It is compact, feature rich, low power consumption machine. It will fit in any corner or inside your bathroom because of its compact size 33 x 23 x 17 inches. It is driven by Direct Drive motor technology(LG trade name). LG is providing 10 years warranty on this motor. LG is confident on their inventory – good to know that. We consumers always want a company who takes responsibility of our investment. So can it deliver the job? Answer is yes. You can wash big blanket weighing 5.5kgs – no problem.
Stain removing capability: good but for stubborn dusts we have to take special measures. I usually set the water temp above 60 @ 800 rev(full power) or mix detergent in warm water and pour it in. Most of the cases stains disappear. In full revolution the machine does not shake violently or rattle and change position. It’s pretty solid.
It has 9 presets including baby care preset with smart diagnosis technology; Rev max 800, temp up to 95 degree; You can wash, rinse, spin and it has child lock too. Water hose and power cord are of top quality and have good length.
So far I had no issues with this machine. So I wont be able to comment regarding Service & Support. But so far I had no issues with other LG products. My thumbs up to them.
What I don’t like? Once you close front load door and turn it on you can’t open the door no matter what. I have tried but failed, even their menu doesn’t talk about it. If anybody know then please comment bellow. I definitely recommend this washing machine.
