Too complicated to use easily
on August 6, 2026
Posted by: della361
from St Augustine FL
My biggest issue was getting used to the controls on this dryer. They are more complicated than necessary, and sometimes selecting one choice cancels out a previous choice selected. I believe this dryer is more concerned with its technology than the simple, ease of use I'm used to and comfortable with.

Lint Compartment Ruins Clothes
on July 15, 2026
Posted by: Evalyn12
I HATE this dryer. No matter how much I clean out the lint compartment, it doesn’t stick in. Therefore, I just had multiple tank tops and bras completely ruined and stretched out because they get caught on the lint compartment won’t shut all the way. This has been going on for over a year and no matter how much I clean it, it never goes in.

Hello, Evalyn. We appreciate you sharing your experience with your LG DLGX4001W Dryer. We recognize your experience with garment damage occurring when the filter frame does not seat flush into the housing slot. To address this issue, ensure the lint trap cavity is completely cleared of lingering debris using a vacuum attachment, as packed lint inside the lower housing can prevent proper insertion, and verify the filter casing itself is not bent or warped. For visual guidance on maintaining and clearing the filter housing, please visit https://www.youtube.com/shorts/xtZYF8Bz2Hw. We want to help ensure your laundry setup operates smoothly and safely for your home. Please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com if you need further support. ^James

Not so great
on June 21, 2026
Posted by: J12708
⭐☆☆☆☆
This dryer has had drying performance issues since installation. Despite proper setup and troubleshooting, clothes remained damp after full cycles and airflow-related warnings appeared repeatedly. The unit seems unusually sensitive to vent configuration, making installation and operation more difficult than expected. Overall, a frustrating experience for a new appliance.

Hello. We appreciate your time sharing your review regarding your LG Gas Dryer, model DLGX4001B. We always strive to provide powerful drying performance and excellent efficiency across all of our Dryer models, and we want your laundry routine to be smooth and effective. To help resolve airflow indicators and ensure your garments dry completely during a single cycle, we recommend checking that your external home exhaust vent ducting is thoroughly cleaned of lint buildup, verifying that the rigid or semi-rigid ducting is not pinched or kinked behind the machine, and running a regular sensor dry cycle with similar fabric weights together. For a detailed, step-by-step walkthrough on optimizing your heating and drying efficiency, please visit our official troubleshooting resource here: https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-dryer-why-is-my-dryer-not-heating-not-drying-or-taking-a-long-time-drying--1432223739634.

Horrible! Lint backs up onto dryer door
on June 2, 2026
Posted by: Terrible Dryer
from Cecilton MD
Dryer makes knocking noise and lint backs up onto dryer door and gasket. When you open the door debris falls out everywhere and is stuck on the gasket, that I have to brush off myself and clean that mess up as well. Techs tell me it’s because of my exhaust duct is too long. Specifications state I can have up to 36ft, I have 20ft with 3 elbows. All within the range. LG tells me it’s not a common problem and they don’t know what to do. Refuses to replace my dryer. Techs just check pressure and blame vent. Dryer exhaust has been completely cleaned out so that’s not the issue. This product is built poorly and LG will not accept responsibility. I wouldn’t recommend this dryer to anyone!! Option to upload pictures is here but won’t let me upload. Go figure!

Hello. We appreciate you sharing your experience with your LG DLEX4000W Dryer. We want you to feel supported with both performance and next‑step options, and your feedback helps us see what’s been happening on your end.
When a knocking sound occurs or lint gathers near the door, confirming that the dryer is level, ensuring the lint filter is fully seated, and checking that the exhaust duct has smooth airflow can help improve performance while a technician evaluates the drum rollers, seals, and vent path. You can also review additional noise‑related guidance here:

The permanent press cycle only runs for 2 minutes. The other settings turn off before clothes are dry.

Hello. We appreciate you sharing your experience with your LG DLEX4000B Dryer, and we understand how it affects your laundry routine when cycles end too quickly or clothes aren’t fully dry. We want you to feel confident using your dryer, and your feedback helps us see what’s been happening on your end. When a cycle stops early, confirming that the lint filter is clean, the exhaust duct has proper airflow, and the load size allows for good tumbling can help the sensor detect moisture accurately. Running a test load on a timed cycle can also help determine whether the issue is sensor‑related or tied to airflow. You can review additional guidance here:

This dryer is time consuming and very poor at efficiency in drying without tangling the load. I don’t recommend.
