It was time to update my LG washer and dryer after over 15 years of faithful service. They both worked fine but I was anxious to replace them before I had a problem.
With regard to the model DLGX4001B dryer, it’s amazing what technology advances have taken place in 15 years!
The washer/dryer is WiFi enabled so that I can check the cycle progress on my phone and receive Alexa alerts once the cycle is finished. The dryer is paired to the washer so for example when the wash cycle for Towels is complete, the dryer automatically pre-selects the dry cycle for Towels.
There are more cycles and each is much more unique with this model compared to my 15 year old machine. This model also features steam functions.
It runs whisper quiet, smooth, and is solid as a rock.
The unit looks great in black steel but a minor complaint is that the LED panel is a bit hard to see so I need reading glasses and a flashlight if I want to choose any of the many available dry options.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good! Have only had for a couple of weeks but it does the job what seems to be efficiently. I also never thought I would need an app for my washer and dryer but it is quite a great feature for those who quickly forget they are doing laundry.
Purchased the washer/dryer pair to replace a 12 year old set. Installation was complicated since I need side venting and there are no drawings of dryer vent placement.
My wife is visually impaired and appreciates the ease os selecting a cycle.
Since the machines are at the opposite end of the house from where we usually hang out, the Internet connection telling me when cycles are complete is very helpful.
Only installed for a few weeks but like the end results, clothing comes out clean much quicker than our previous machines.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my dryer about a week ago and it works great. I feel like I am saving time and money. The only thing I don’t like is that the dryer does not want to connect with the app.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this washer and dryer 3 years ago and it has worked great! Gets all our clothes clean. I’m constantly washing clothes .
Pros: ease of use, Quality, Features/Settings, Performance
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like thar the dryer can sense when clothes are dry and stop the cycle,saving electricity. The chimes at end of cycle is helpful as my dryer is on the lower level of my home. Extremely satisfied with this dryer.
