This washer/dryer has made my washing life very
easy. Works beautifully and my clothes come out
Perfect for the setting I have chosen. I have the model
in silver and it looks great in my condo at the
Westgate in Park City. I chose to have a plumber install
the machine. However that is not a requirement.
The combo does not require a great deal of soap
I use about a 1/2 tsp. each time and my clothes come
Out really clean. I also like to wash in cold water
Instead of hot or warm water.

Wonderful Machine
on May 17, 2015
Posted by: Mikieray1960
from Saint Clairsville, OH 43950, USA
I live in an apartment complex where management doesn't fix problems too well. My dryer vent coming into my laundry room fell out of the top of the ceiling; and with it, a pile of compacted lint. This was on the inside, not the outside of my apartment. The dryer vent outside access is about 12 feet in the air and obviously, the height and the way it funneled through my ceiling, prevented me from cleaning it. I knew management didn't care, but I did because another apartment burned down with a fire that started in the laundry room. Besides, my appliances were old and I knew sooner or later, one or both would die.
I have always wanted a front loader, and when I learned it was a combination washer/dryer, which was ventless, I was elated!
I am fascinated by this machine and how convenient it is. I have had no problem whatsoever with the clothes being completely dry upon removal. My laundry looks clean and smells fresh.
The convenience is great not having to transfer laundry from one machine to another. The only feature lacking is that on some cycle selections, the dry feature is not continuos after washing. You have to use the Drain/Spin cycle after the washer stops to engage the drying option. According to the instructions, it does state that drying is not included in some cycles to protect certain types of fabrics.
Some people complained, about the time factor, but for me, this is not a problem, it's a learning curve from a regular washer/dryer. High efficiency products take longer to wash, and the drying method is condensation drying, which is a new concept to me.
Overall, I am very satisfied and would recommend this machine.
I really love it! I've been washing everyday and sitting and watching it like a cat, I'm sure that novelty will wear off. It's so cool, like a spaceship with all the lights and controls.

I love this washer dryer combo
on February 25, 2015
Posted by: massagebyrobin
from Bastrop, TX 78602, USA
I'm a massage therapist and run 1 load at the end of everyday. I love the sanitize cycle and my sheets are coming out completely dry. I have cleaned out the lint trap a couple of times which is easy to do. Only downfall I have seen is everything comes out with lots of wrinkles. I started to add a little fabric softener and that is helping about 50% better. I have had the unit now for about 60 days and happy I went with it.

LIFE SAVER!!!
on April 7, 2015
Posted by: Kimakoi
from San Francisco, CA
This product has seriously improved the quality of my LIFE!!! I live in an old apartment building (only 2 washers/dryers for 48 unit building) in a neighborhood with no more laundromats) and I can't install a vented dryer. I was able to get rid of my dishwasher and install this unit in the same space. It has worked amazingly well, and the wash/dry times are actually shorter than I expected - sometimes as little as 2.5 hours for small loads! The spin cycles are quiet, and this unit doesn't make any more noise than a dishwasher! The clothes seem damp at first when you take them out, but if you shake them, they magically dry within seconds. It is weird! I did notice a little strange smell to the clothes as a result of the drying method (like a slightly burnt smell?) but the problem was solved with the addition of a TINY amount of fabric softener (seriously, like a thimble full). The machine seems to be able to handle larger loads than I originally thought, BUT the exception to this rule is, not so much with long pieces of clothes, such as long pants. Long pants tend to dry with big creases, so you will end up having to do more ironing than you would if you had a bigger machine. Large items like he sheets also tend to come out very wrinkly. However, all in all, I still give it 5 stars and consider it the best investment ever in my years of apartment living.!!! It is so awesome to be able to start some laundry and then go to work or go to sleep and come back and it's all done!! So great to not have to move the wash into another machine!! It's also great to be able to efficiently to very tiny loads of laundry (like whites) without too much water guilt. This unit is incredibly efficient on the water. I was initially worried that it would consume a ton of electricity on the dry cycle, but to my happy surprise, it has not made much (if any) difference to my electric bill even though I am using it about every other day. I would definitely recommend this machine. So far, I have had great experience with LG machines - bought a conventional LG washer & dryer for my ex about 6 years ago and the machines still work great. I definitely do also recommend purchasing the extended 5-year warranty mainly as jinx-control. :-)

replaced a 10 year old LG model....
on September 4, 2014
Posted by: jonvespa
from Long Beach, CA
Okay, we were a little hesitant to replace our 10 year old LG washer dryer because it worked great...then the fuse went bad and we couldn't buy a new motherboard. So we ordered this model, and obviously LG has made great improvements in their technology because this thing dries 100% better than the last machine we had....towels were always the hardest and they come out completely dry with this machine. Glad we got it.

"Washer/Dryer Combo of Future"
on January 13, 2015
Posted by: InesInca
from Madera, CA, USA
We are a family of 3..We live in a very small apartment unit..We don't have vent for dryer..That why i choice LG combo wm3477hw..Has lots options and saves space and money..I hook the lines to the sink kitchen and it drains out to kitchen drain..Doesn't make to much sound, like some washer and dryer..I have been using option delicetes,sanitay and speed wash, my clothes is very clean..I recommend you to read the manual carefully, before you start to use it..So you can get the best results..The dryer doesn't need extern vent, is perfect for us..it's true that it takes longer to dry from 30 mintues or more depending on load or size of clothes..I can dry 2 large pants and 3 shirts, or 4 towels..and wash 3 pants 4 shirts..And in resume,I love my combo LG more then my husband..Thank you LG
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality, 5 star best of it's kind

Perfect unit for small apartments
on August 13, 2015
Posted by: MJS
from Los Angeles, CA
I love this washer. It's perfect if you live in an apartment like mine that lacks a lot of extra space and an external venting source. The great thing about the combo is you don’t need to move your clothes from washer to dryer, so I can put a load in before I go to work, and it will be both washed and dried when I get home! The key to success with this washer is that you must do SMALL loads. I only fill the drum up half way with clothes for each load. If you do this, it will only take about 2 hours for the full wash and dry cycle, which isn't much longer than a typical washer and dryer. The unit calculates how much time it will take to dry based on the weight of the clothes inside the machine, so if you fill it up all the way with heavy items, then it probably will take 4 hours or more to wash and dry. Just take a few things out and it will calculate a much more reasonable timeframe. For me this is not that inconvenient since the unit is in my apartment and I can do loads whenever I feel like....waaay more convenient than humping all my clothes to the laundromat! Having this unit in my apartment has upped my quality of life dramatically just by eliminating the laundromat from my life. Highly recommend!
Pros: easy to use, Style/Design

This machine is just plain wonderful!
on September 27, 2014
Posted by: The Old Man
from Carpentersville, IL, USA
This product is much better than I had expected. It is absolutely perfectly matched to my needs. It is my very first LG product as well as being my first combo washer/dryer. I use it for only 2 people (my wife and myself). I am amazed at the perfection of the washing technique of this machine. It is only second to a very thorough hand washing. The washing cycles are controlled by a computer program (not just a simple timer). It is very smart technology. The digital program drives an inverter operated electric motor, which needs a minimum of electrical energy to operate. It uses less power and less water and yet it cleans the laundry better than any machine I had ever used (and I am over 70 years old). It washes the clothing in clean water and not in a pool of dirty water, such as a top loading machine does. The ventless drying works just perfectly well. I love this machine because I can operate it overnight when the peak energy usage is lower. This results in a lower electric bill (especially during the summer months). Then in the morning I always find my clothing dry, wrinkle free and read to fold and/or wear. I love this machine and I recommend it to anyone whose needs are similar to mine. I hope it will last me a very long time. I would be so lost without it.
