• What about shrinkage due to the steams heat?

• The LG Washer and matching dryer are just great appliances. The washer uses both water and steam as you choose. The steam feature will clean, refresh, and remove wrinkles from clothes without chemicals and solvents. Can't beat this!

• I just got this system. Not as exciting as I expected. The steam cycle is 20 minutes and does little to reduce wrinkles.
  
  Both the washer and dryer needs service already (purchased 6/18), the washer needs a new circuit board and the dryer has defective rollers that cause the startup to be very loud.

• I've had the steam washer now for a couple of months and I find the steam wash a complete waste. It does not do as advertised. The clothes are damp at best and not hot at all. It does NOT get wrinkles out of the clothes.

• I must agree with everyone, the steam feature was a big disapointment. I sent a email to the support department to ask about the steam cycle operation because it did not force steam into the washer as advertised. Support admits the demonstration video was enhanced. I love the washer but if I had to do it over, I would not purchase a washer with the steam option.

• I love my LG Steam Washer. The steam fresh cycle does exactly as promised, although 100% cotton is a little damp (it says this in the manual too). I had never expected this washer to clean my clothes as well as it does. Not only does it work well, but it also looks sexy.

• The steam cycle does not shrink your clothes because of the time (20 minutes) and actual tub temperature (40 Degrees).

• I got LG Steam washer & Dryer from HomeDepot on Last Nov. 11, 2006.
  The Steam fuction does not work like it was shown on TV. There is just a little steam coming out w/ little heat. The steam fresh fuction doses not do the worl like it said on TV.

• I bought the LG washer & dryer in white and the color of washer and dryer are different whites.. washer as white-white and dryer a grey-white... home depot refused to replace. A lot of money for something that dosn't match.

• It's always a good idea when something new is foisted on the public to wait until the wrinkles are ironed out - this is true of appliances, food products, surgical procedures, EVERYTHING! Wait around a while and they get the fine-tuning done and also the price comes down.

• I just went to about 6 stores, and I purchases the red set at Frys tonight for the best price of all the other stores, I went to. I am excited because this is a big sacrifice for my family and I am praying it is worth the money.

• Just ordered my LG steam washer and steam dryer. Got big discounts at Home Depot during TX no tax weekend during Memorial Day weekend. Sure hope I am more satisfied than most of the comments already left on this site cause I spent all my money on them.

• I don't have the steam washer but I have the LG front load washer and dryer and am completely disappointed. The washer needs a new circuit board already. Thank Goodness for the extended warranty. I won't buy this brand again.

• Soon I will be in the market for a new washer and was interested in the steam washer. After reading some of the comments, I'm beginning to have second thoughts. I'll research this feature a bit more before I decide.

• So glad I found this page. I too am having second thoughts about spending BIG $$ for a big disappointment.

• Save your money. It's more expensive, the cycle takes 3-4 hours MINIMUM, the steam cyle does NOT get rid of wrinkles, refresh your clothes, or save on dry cleaning. The biggest downside is that your clothes ALWAYS come out with wrinkles. I've read the manual and tried tweaking every possible setting (more/less water, more/less dry time) and my clothes always come out with DEEP wrinkles.

• extremely disappointed with the LG Steam combo. the dryer seems to work alright *knock on wood*, but the washer, although does do an excellent job of washing and conserving water, the steamfresh cycle is complete garbage! LG "Life's Garbage" engineers had to know this cycle did not do nearly what they advertise it to do, but yet decided to sell it anyways...thats korean manufacturing for ya! if its electronic and from asia, don't even think of touching it if its not Japanese. Korean and Chinese electronics are pure garbage, as is the case with many having mainboard issues with their wash machines and dryers. good thing i bought the extended warantee, its not like LG's tech support is worth a hill of beans...they are useless as t**s on a boar!

• Purchased the white LG Steam washer & dryer....these units can be stacked or side by side they are rather tall stacked if you are 5.2 like me. The steam is being used along with water during most wash cycles. I do not have a real opinion about the steam yet. YOU DO NEED TO READ THE OWNERS MANUAL and there is maint. with the washer such as draining water from a tube regularly, wiping glass and gasket seal at the end of last cycle and leaving the door ajar to let the washer completely dry out. I have washed all my throw pillows, refreshed a couple comforters and washed a few dry clean only items succesfully. There are some really long cycles but for the most part the dryer is always dried before the washer is done which is huge for me since I used to have 2-3 clean loads sitting in baskets waiting to be dried with my previous washer and dryer. Hope this post helps. I purchsed from SEARS using there price match and bought an extended warranty lets hope I wont be needing it. SEARS.com has over 25 reveiws on this LG product. All in all I was not fond of spending close to 2900.00 on a washer & dryer w/ warranty but they have made my life a little easier.....
