Product review (5 stars): Love the quiet!
This review encompasses both the LG Washer/Dryer I purchased. I have been shopping for a larger capacity and QUIETER (main requirement) washer/dryer combination. Was replacing a pair of 6-yr old Maytag appliances and although they still worked well, the noise was annoying. After a couple of months shopping, comparing, and watching prices fall I settled on the LG DLEX5680W (Dryer) and WT5680HWA (washer).

Recommendations: Read the manuals (LOL) and you will find them quite easy to operate.

Washer: EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET! Have only done a few loads so far but with the door to the laundry room open and me sitting in the living room (30 away) I only hear the bells telling me the load is done. Seems to clean clothes as good as any other washers, will be trying comforters soon.

Dryer: EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET! Seems like my drying time has been reduced by about 20% and am looking forward to the larger drying capacities.

Tip: This set is SMALLER than my older Maytags (both width and depth) but slightly higher. I made allowances for the dimensions EXCEPT for the washer height with the lid raised (DUH). The lid hits my storage cabinets above the washer by 1/4 of an inch. A minor pain and does not interfere with the lid being open @ 98% of the way. So watch the height dimensions too.
