NEW 2024 LG 5.2 cu. ft. Front Load Washer & 9.0 cu. ft. GAS Dryer WM8980HVA DLGX8981V Setup & Info 

Glad my video helped Dustin. Let me tell you, you’re going to absolutely love this new set. Coming from my 13 year old set, these are light years ahead. The tub sizes alone and a HUGE upgrade. Of course you’ll still need to do all of the routine maintenance you mentioned, but you for sure won’t have any funk. These fit a lot more clothes and my wash times are cut by 40% for sure. Enjoy!

You’re welcome and thanks for taking the time to watch my video. I tried to cover all the questions I had before buying. You’re going to love this set!

You’re going to love this set! I use the sidekick all the time. So glad my video was able to help. Enjoy your new washer and dryer!

Glad to hear my video helped! You are going to love this set. Hey, I’m old too 😜.

Thank you so much Christina. Congratulations on your new set and you’re going to absolutely love it! Makes doing laundry fun.. lol

Thank you!! 😊

I couldn’t agree more. My old LG set lasted 13 years and the dryer was still working just fine. It was only the washer. They do make great long lasting products for sure. You are absolutely going to love this set. It will do twice the amount as your old set in half the time!

Glad it was helpful! Thank you.

HAHAHA!!

Thanks for watching Rick, I appreciate it. If I’m not mistaken, if you use the Costco credit card to purchase these you’ll get an additional 2 year warranty at no extra cost. So, I used my Costco card and once the bill came in I just paid it all off. For the price and the warranty, plus haul away and install, this deal can’t be beat. Costcos warranty is one of the best I’ve seen. Love their hassle free return policy. As far as the set, you’re going to LOVE them. I’ve been using them since this video and don’t have one complaint at all. I know they do offer a set with the automated soap dispenser, but the tub is a lot smaller. I agree with you as far as the signature series. I couldn’t justify the additional cost to only gain a little more tub size. You have a great rest of the day Rick. Thanks for watching.

😂😂😂 Aren’t they cool! I love theses things. Never have I been this excited for an appliance. 😃

Congratulations on your purchase. You’re going to absolutely love this set. I’m forgetting everything, but I would say, buy two sets of the steam dryer hose kit and two of the washer and dryer hose kits. That’s way you have your bases covered, because I totally forgot the install I did. Amazon is awesome with returns, so just return what you don’t need. Get the gas hose connection kit too. I wanted all new hoses for everything as well. You’ll need it. This set has been working perfectly with absolutely no issues. You’re gonna love it!

Thanks for watching and I’m glad my video helped. No, I never considered the 6700 only because I knew I wanted the largest size tub they offered within my budget. But, the 6700 is a sexy machine. I do love that digital screen it has on the front.

Absolutely! They both have the steam feature and will work as long as you have the kit to run water lines to the both of them. You are going to LOVE this set. We’ve been using them weekly since this video and have had no issues. Compared to our last set it does twice the size load in about 40% less time. We’re very happy. You have yourself a wonderful Christmas and enjoy!

The WM8900HBA doesn’t have the ez dispenser. Neither does the one in this video which is the WM8980HVA. The only one I remember having the ez dispenser when I was looking was the WM6700HBA Thanks for watching. 😃

Slippers, no problem. Shoes? Personally, id leave those to the bigger washer.

These absolutely come with power cords. If you order this set from Costco, they do the complete setup and install. When they leave your home, these will be fully functional and ready to use.

You’re welcome and yes, you can do a rinse only cycle. You go into the app and download a cycle called “rinse spin”. Then, turn on your machine and turn the knob to downloaded. Then, select the rinse spin download in the app and start the machine.

I’m sorry to hear that. I did what I said in the video and everything worked. Maybe contact customer support?

Unfortunately they don’t, that would’ve been a great feature.

Yes, this set comes with both pedestals. You will absolutely love this set. At the time of this video I was finishing off the rest of a detergent I no longer use. I’ve since switched to this one and like it a lot better. amzn.to/3UiiiiA Thanks so much for watching. Enjoy your new washer and dryer!

Yes, turn the dial to speed wash.

I left the links in the description.

Well, you have to remember your dryer has a vent hose coming off the back that you need to attach to your homes duct. So, that hose is 4 inches in diameter. So, at minimum you’d need 4 inches on the dryer. The washer could be closer I suppose, but that would look odd having the washer 2-3 inches and the dryer 4 inches.

They are very quiet. My laundry room is on the second floor and I’ve had multiple big loads in. If it starts to wobble at all the washer can detect it. It will slow down automatically and readjust the load before spinning fast again. Best washer and dryer I’ve ever owned.

Yes, you can control the dryer from the app. Stacked or not.

About 55 inches

4 to 6 inches from the wall to the appliances. Every dryer has/needs a dryer vent hose. That hose is about 4 inches in diameter. So, you’d need at least that much for the hose that connects from your dryer to the vent in your home.

My wife and I still have our Teslas. To me, Teslas charge faster, better audio system, pin to drive, better overall UI, better handling and a few other things. But, the Rivian is still a great vehicle. Specially if you need a SUV of this size… like a Tahoe or Escalade. Having all this room plus it seats 7 and it’s electric with 380 miles is pretty darn good.

I don’t know to be honest.

They all get wet just fine. The machine senses the load and the it starts to wet the clothes. It will tumble the clothes around and add more water accordingly. Been using these machines for over a month now and they are amazing. Everything gets wet and cleaned very well. It applies the right amount of water according to the load. Plus it can handle a bigger load and reduce washing time by 40% vs my old washer.

Absolutely! Costco will setup your new and haul away your old set. They couldn’t at my delivery because one of the guys got hurt at the previous stop before mine.

Glad you’re happy with your set. As I’ve stated in the video my older LG washer and dryer lasted 13 years. I do detail my own cars. So, being able to throw my car rags in the pedestal washer while the main washer does the regular clothes is awesome. I’ve used it about 4 times now. As fast as sitting detergent on top, I learned that the hard way years ago. That’s why you see towels on this new set. Plus having the squeezable detergent bottles I’m using.

Yup, they sure do. But, as I stated in my video one of the delivery drivers got hurt at a previous stop, so they couldn’t do my delivery/install upstairs. One of the two men could only drop off my items in my garage. So I hired movers to bring it upstairs and I did the install myself. Because I needed my washer and dryer ASAP. I didn’t want to wait another week for Costco to come back and do the install. I needed to get clean clothes right away.

The total is 3399.99+ tax. That includes delivery, setup, haul away your old set and a 2 year warranty all from Costco. You get all 4 pieces you see in this video. Other stores carry this same exact set, but in a darker color. That’s why the model number is slightly different at those other stores.

Turns off by itself

Si, puedes descargar un ciclo llamado enjuague y centrifugado en la aplicación. Luego, simplemente seleccione descargar en la máquina.

Yes and they even sell the stackable hardware kit.

I’d say right around 3200.00. This was almost a year ago now. I’m sure it has been be a lot cheaper now.
