Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Exceeds expectations

Cuhristean777 10/14/2024

I was really excited but also anxious about trying a heat-pump dryer. It takes ~50 longer to dry versus my vented dryer. Ex- 45min to dry sheets versus 30min. It does so using about a third of the energy- a worthy tradeoff. One unique note is that it takes this dryer longer to warm up. ex a 20-minute refresh cycle gets clothes warm not hot. The lint filter is definitely my least favorite part of the dryer. Its different than any dryer Ive ever used before. There are 2 folding filters that Ive resorted to vacuuming as the filter is so fine its difficult to clean by hand. I also didnt realize I was going to have to wash the filters with water every ten cycles. I do a lot of laundry so I end up doing that about once a week. I watched a ton of videos talking about how clothes feel damp coming out of heat-pump dryers Ive only experienced that while using AI Dry. Normal gets everything as dry as a vented dryer. If efficiency is a priority for you this is the way to go I have no regrets and appreciate the longer warranty period for an unproven in the U.S. product.

Great dryer but came with manufacturing defect

db83 10/9/2024

Dryer was delivered without any issue. However just like other reviewer said door would not close. If I keep the door forcefully close then it dries to cloth nicely. Looks like manufacturing defect. I have open case for 1 month now. They are going to replace the door.

Great dryer dont hesitate.

Tiger rain 9/3/2024

4 loads of laundry done and all of our skepticisms are gone This ventless dryer is great energy efficient and easy to use. Senses the load and moisture level and adjusts as needed. My wife asked me to smell the cloths and how fresh they smell not like a dryer heating coil.

Quiet drys well and much lower energy

oliver54564 8/24/2024

I bought the LG heat pump drier about a month ago. In short I am very happy with it. I had read reviews of other heat pump driers where people complained about the clothes feeling damp when they came out but I have not found this. The clothes feel as warm and dry as they did with my previous vented electric drier. I like how quiet it is how it doesnt vent my temperature controlled air to the outside and how much less energy it consumes. It takes about 1h10m to dry a load of clothes compared to about 1h for my prior drier. Even though it takes slightly longer Ive been measuring its energy consumption and it uses less than half the amount of electricity my prior drier used per load.

Appalling service

Verysadcustomer 8/13/2024

I bought a dryer a month ago. On my third delivery date but still no dryer. Delivery company said it was damaged so sent back to LG. Tried to contact and heard nothing so far. Best to stay away.

Dont have it

Johnmomeara 8/7/2024

I bought it the end of March and it took 5 weeks for it to come in. When delivered the door would not latch. Parts were ordered and it still did not fix the problem. It was determined that it was sprung. It was removed and a new one was ordered. Many weeks later the new one came in but the dude was caved in and door broken. So once again we wait In no way do I blame the Appliance Barn for this I just want my dryer

Defective Door

TimK12 6/20/2024

Dryer doors are defective. Ordered this dryer 2 months ago and the door would not latch. Had the dryer replaced and the replacement unit didnt latch as well. A technician came out to evaluate and replaced the latch and door still same issue. Upon further review by the technician there is a known issue with the door gasket being too large cause tension on the door to not close properly. New doors have been developed and are expected to ship soon to address the issue but no confirm timeframe. All previous dryers though that are sitting in the warehouse will have this defective door. Buyer Beware

Unable to Stack

Anonymous_1 6/5/2024

If looking to stack the unit ensure you receive the stacking kit first prior to ordering the dryer. The dryer states to be stacked with HSTK1B stacking kit but the kit is on backordered and no one in LG can say when it will be in stock even though the website keeps saying in stock. I ordered the dryer and stacking kit 2 months ago and I still havent received the stacking kit. I returned the dryer in the return window in case the stacking kit never comes and I need to look to purchase a different dryer to fit my needs for stacking.

Great Dryer Poor Quality and Customer Service

Avdoc 5/20/2024

I purchased the dryer directly from LG.com along with the LG Premier Care extended warranty. Delivery took about 1 week. However upon arrival the door would not close. It took another week before an LG technician to come evaluate. He was unable to fix as no repair parts are available. I spent 2 hours on the phone with LG customer service before an offer to send a new unit was made. However it was going to take another 7-10 days to get a replacement. By loosening the screws attaching the front fascia 1/4 turn I was able to get the door to close and stay latched. So far Ive run the unit through 3 normal cycles that take about 1.5 hours each. The dryer is very quiet and dries clothes completely so Im very satisfied with the performance of the unit. However Im very disappointed in LGs quality control and initial customer service. I asked to speak with a manager while speaking to customer service and received a call from Kaitlyn Presidential Liaison with LG Electronics. Kaitlyn listened to my concerns provided compensation for my trouble and is calling me back in a week to make sure the dryer is still functioning normally. Im appreciative that LG ultimately addressed my concerns but recommend they improve their quality control and customer service so that others dont have my experience.

Excellent dryer - better than vented

JeremyH55 5/6/2024

This is an excellent dryer. I bought a new house last year with a very long and very elbowed vent duct. My old LG couldnt properly vent and kept erroring and a booster fan I installed stopped working randomly one weekend. I was a little skeptical of switching to ventless but needed to since my home duct is just too long. I am very pleased with this LG. It gets my clothes completely dry in the same amount of time and sometimes less time as my old dryer. Granted I am coming from a poor ventilation system so shorter for me might not be shorter for everyone depending on how fast your old dryer was. This gets all the laundry for my house of 4 done in a single day without issue. The clothes are perfectly dry - not even a bit of dampness. Even jeans - which used to always have a few damp spots - are completely dry. Operation is simple the settings are intuitive and you can control via an app. The only negative is that the laundry room heats up quite a bit while this is running. Turning on the laundry room vent fan takes care of the issue and extra heat in the winter will be a welcome bonus.
