I bought the LG WM4000 washer 2 months ago and just completed the set with the LG DLEX4000W dryer. Great laundry appliances! We bought our first set of LG 18 years ago and did not have any problems with them despite working them 3-4 times a week. The new ones are even better - more energy efficient, quieter, and cleans better with less water. I hope this new set will be as reliable as the old one. The steam function is also great when needed for very dirty clothing or to freshen up bed linen.
