First Look: LG WM3400CW Unboxing and taking it Apart! 

same here

@@hippa2dahoppa2 Me too!

You buy it? how's it doing?

I would think it depends on what is being washed, cycle, load size, detergent. The Turbo Wash LG seem to be top notch all around performer as per Eugene's videos indicate. But some just love top loaders with agitation and deep water washes.

Yup! i just installed one and its jumping allover the place on final spin.

How do you still like it ?im looking now to buy one

@@paulstanley3265 So far, I LOVE it!

absolutely the lg

Soil level adjusts Wash time in minutes. it won't give you a time estimate until it senses the size of the load (for more accuracy)

Personally I'd love to see a front load washer 'Mexican standoff' featuring LG/Samsung/Whirlpool (or Maytag, Electrolux, or GE).

The Muffin Man lol

my last LG lasted 10 years

@@WKaliberr How many repairs, and what was repaired in that 10 years ?

@@iamtheiceman The water pump replaced

For North American front loader washers, they operate on 120V. It's clothes dryers, where if it operates on 240V, it's electric, and 120V for gas models.

"It sounds like a UFO landing" ... What does anal probing sound like?

How do you even know what a ufo landing sounds like??? Have you actually witnessed that?????? Tell me about it if you have!!! Actually i have heard that people who claim to have seen ufo's that they don't make any noise at all..

You don't need wifi to do laundry. It's an expensive gimmick.

It does a great job without a lot of water. You may be using too much detergent (most people do with front loaders) or not selecting the appropriate cycles for the wash. Just dumping in more water isn't going to help. Front loaders work the same way that hand washing an item in a sink does -- you don't stir the item around in the sink like a top loading agitator, you continually lift it up and down, in and out of the water. You don't need a whole ton of water to do that.

@@remycallieThis is absolutely incorrect. The low water level of this unit makes it awful. I am quite sure LG was "asked nicely" by some international body to use less water in their cycles to make them more environmentally friendly. For Godssake you can add not just 1, not 2, but *3* extra rinse cycles on this stupid machine. What took my old crappy Frigidaire machine half the time, got my clothes smelling clean... and by clean, I mean; they didn't smell like detergent, and the armpits didn't smell like BO right out of the wash like they do with my LG. This hunk of junk gets sold cheap to people who don't know the rub is that it doesn't use as much water as a more expensive model that people who have more money can afford. It's the same as anything else these days. Part of the "good deal" means you get a super efficient hunk of junk that doesn't do the one thing it's supposed to do--- get your clothes clean. Had I known this thing would be a polished turd I would've repaired my old machine. It wasn't perfect but it had a high water level setting that did a fantastic job *getting my clothes clean*. This isn't rocket science. It's soap, water, and agitation. Some moron at LG thought their stupid jingle would fool people into ignoring their eyes, nose, and common sense. It is so insulting to customers that the cycles take forever to complete... You and I know damn well some over paid exec thought, "We'll just agitate longer, and we can use half as much water and detergent, and still get the clothes as clean!" Actually, what this does is make a more concentrated amount of dirty water, which means your clothes are "bathed" in dirty water instead of "washed". When you take a bath, do you get just as clean if you put 3 inches of water in the tub, using your standard amount of shampoo, conditioner, etc?? Of course not. You'd have a concentrated mess at the bottom and that would be coating your body unless you then took a shower to rinse yourself off... OR, you could take a shower, and actually get clean. The bottom line is that this washer is a fraudulent lie. It insults customers to have LG paid bots come on forums like this and defend their crappy product to gaslight people into believing it's all in their head. LG has lost any future business from me, and I am telling everyone who asks to get something else, and to confirm they have a high water level wash option. Seriously, I reduce, reuse, and recycle plenty. But, it's humiliating to be a clean person, and to smell your own BO because your washer doesn't actually wash your clothes.

@@CalmBeforeTheStorm76 I have no idea where you're getting your information from. More expensive models do not use more water! (Like the poor people are getting cheated of water. :) More expensive models do tricks, like have a "steam" cycle. ) This is exactly how front loading washers work. My husband is European and this is pretty much all they have throughout Europe and this is how they work. I've had this model for six months now and it is working absolutely beautifully. With respect, a poor workman blames his tools. Learn how to use this.

If the default water level is like my LG WM2250CW model from 2012, it does not use enough water. I had clothes that stayed dry, because clothes weren't tumbling around, and I did not overfill my machine either. This machine fills exclusively by sending the water to the shell, and fill through a rising effect. My Frigidaire front loader from 1999 sprayed the water directly into the tub, onto the clothes, and would saturate the clothes as it fills. The basic LG instead requires the clothes to absorb the water from the bottom of the tub, and must continuously tumble, hoping it saturates all the clothes. If the water level is set too low, then clothes won't be fully saturated. I literally had to have the water level adjusted, just so it would use more water. If it filled with water like my first front loader washer, maybe it would have done a better job. LG models with the Turbo Wash, has a recirculation pump, that still sends the water to the shell, but once it reaches a certain level, it recirculates the wash water, and sprays the clothes continuously, instead of just long enough to saturate the clothes. All other models from different washer makers, use a combination of filling directly into the tub, and spray with a recirculation pump, until the clothes get saturated with water, before relying on just the tumbling action of the drum to get clothes clean.

Fort Collins Mike typically Black Friday or July 4 sales. Generally you will have to buy the set to get that low

Best Buy has it on sale for $629 right now. Home Depot $628

@@sbettieross1490 The 3500 is the same price I guess that would be a better choice

Fort Collins Mike I purchased 3400cw a month ago (still waiting on delivery) because it was one of the few washers I could find in stock. I wanted the 3500 but could not find anywhere here in Massachusetts 😩. I hope this machine works out for me

$750 sale at Lowe's at the moment.

So true!

Completely agree Peter Dad use to say the more features you add, the more things there are to break.

Bruce Solomon yes Bruce mine said the same thing. LOL.

@Isaac Joby John We would also like to have that feature and in fact do in all dishwashers. However since we have 110v it would cost twice as much to heat our water in our washers to do laundry unless adding an additional high amperage circuit but sometimes that could require replacing the entire service box which could cost thousands. Since both my washers and dishwasher are on the same line as a sink I start a hot water valve on a sink first until it becomes hot, turn it off and then start the machine so that all of the water that goes into the machine from the start of the cycle is at full temperature. In the case of my dishwasher I’ve noticed that it results in much shorter cycle lengths and no diminished results. That is because we use the hot water line as the tap for the dishwasher and the internal heater insures that the water rises to 150*F in a sani cycle and 140 normally. My own heaters are set to 150 and are solar heated so the internal heater in the dishwasher never activates hence the time savings.

I guess so but one thing that’s necessary in a front loader that’s only available on upper models is a heater. Well I mean it’s not necessary to get clean clothes but it’s a very very useful thing to have.

Retrobytes I would guess that no clothes in the washer so not much water.

@@Bunkysworkshop Yep I agree. These new washers many use load sensing so if there is no load there is far less water. Note: I found a hack on LG washers which there is actually a control unit for water levels which one can increase under the hood. However it most likely would void any warranty. But the person on RU-vid who did the hack did increase the overall water in the LG front loader to his liking.
