Product review (1 stars): Buy another brand...
I purchased an LG washer in May 2006.  I am single and thus only wash 3 loads of laundry a week (two of which are only 1/2 loads for this washer).  Not large or bulky items (as LG said you can wash in this machine) only normal laundry.  Several months after I purchased it, the control board went out.  Now only 6 years later the LG certified repair man said that the bearings are out.  The bearings are an integral part of the drun spinning/turning.  The cost to repair $600-$700 from 2 different repair shops.  They also told me that they "see this all the time" (bearings out on LG machines).  So this is a recurring problem with LG washers.  You and I know we expect most washers to last 15-20 years under "normal use" which is way more than three 1/2 loads of laundry a week.  6 years is totally unsatisfactory.  Three 1/2 loads of laundry should not wear out bearings on drums.  If this is happening and is a "recurring" issue that repair people "see all the time" then LG has quality control problems.  I would NOT RECOMMEND an LG washer to anyone especially if you wash more than three loads of laundry a week.
