Product review (2 stars): Front panel writing coming off
After using LG washer WM4270HWA several months, the ink writing is coming off from the washer's front panel and front panel buttons, please look at the attached picture. The panel was not cleaned using any cleaners, the only explanation is there can be some detergent residue on the fingers after loading the detergent (coming from the detergent bottle or cup), it will dissolve the ink.

This is the design problem, since it has to be assumed that you are dealing with detergent and LG could cover the front panel writing with transparent plastic or film as they actually do on power and start/pause buttons, proving that they are fully aware of the problem. They could use other inks or just glue the stickers that can be replaced later. Unfortunately, they didn't think much about it and went with the cheapest solution, and this is not the cheapest washer model.

Finally, they refused to replace the panel saying it is a "cosmetic damage", however when all letters will be gone how to select the washing options? It will be a functional issue. Having extended warranty is not helping either, Homedepot, where the washer was bought, is saying the same. One of their's suggestions is to take a marker and write on the panel, ridiculous nonsense. Be aware.
