Good gone bad - broken in just under 2 years
on February 2, 2015
Posted by: MrsScallywag
Initially, we loved our new washer & dryer. The washer had plenty of room for large loads. I wash most of my whites and dark colors on the "pure color" cycle which I understand now fills the tub with more water. This may explain why I haven't had as many problems as others and felt that the clothes were getting clean. With large loads, lately, I've found too many uneven loads and have had to adjust and readjust clothes in the washer. I've also had to run extra rinse/spin cycles to try to get the extra water out of the clothes because the clothes were too wet to place in the dryer.
Recently, during one of the uneven loads the bottom center agitator came loose from being locked in place in the bottom of the washer and floated in the washing machine. It has actually trapped clothes underneath damaging them. I've also noticed an odor from the machine. I'm not sure if it's related to the agitator being out of place. See pictures attached.

Washer Update
February 3, 2015
Technician just left our home. The transmission shaft that the rotator sits on is broken, so the washer needs a new transmission and agitator/rotator. Roughly $300 with no warranty. How is that for value on a $600 washer?
Service call for today was $87.20. We called LG. They said no warranty even though it has a 10 year limited warranty on the drum motor and lifetime warranty on the stainless steel drum. What good is a washer that does not even last 2 years? What happened to the good old days when washers held up for 15+ years? Obviously, I would not recommend the purchase of this washer.
