Kitchen Large Electric Appliances - LG Dishwasher

I am planning to buy LG dishwasher and not decide which model to buy. There are three built-in model LDF6810ST, LDF7810ST, and LDF7811ST I am looking into and am wondering about LG's dishwasher quality. Does anyone has any experience with LG's dishwasher? Any comment is appreciated! Thanks!

I have a lds5811ww. I would guess it is an older model than what you are looking at. I have had it for about a year.

I like it very much except the basket wheels break. Other than that, I have had absolutely no problems.

I read reviews from internet. They are about 3-5 for this model and none of them review it good. Do you have any problem of cleaness, long cycle to wash (~2.5 hours), water drip at bottom when door is open, and noise? Thanks!

When I bought mine, there were very few reviews for my model, or actually LG for that matter. About the only negative thing I had found was that many of them often came up with an "IE" (i think) error code. This translates into water inlet problems.Even after reading the reviews, I still bought one. Guess what, the very first time I used it, I had the iE code. I continued to have that problem for awhile. Then I checked my water supply and found the pressure to be quite low. I cranked it up to normal and have absolutely no problems with this since.

Cleaning ability is great. 3 months after I got it, I got rid of my wife because it worked better than her (just kidding). Actually cleaning is fine with a few exceptions but better than the two other brands I had had prior so I write it off as some things just take a hand and a scrubby to get them clean.


Sound level. It was listed as one (iof not the) quietest I could find. It was claimed to be quieter than a Bosch and I can tell you it it quiet. Not to the point that I can't tell it's running but not too far away either. It's good here.

Long cycle to wash. Yes, the cycles do seem long but when I compared it to other brands, it really was no different than they were.

One reason it is longer is that it alternates between the upper level spray and the lower level spray any time you use the full spray. This way, it provides more pressure to each level when it does spray.

There are a few drips around my house but none from the dishwashe, ever.

It was one of the more expensive washers out there but I am very satisfied with it.

Stainless steel tub, hard food grinder, self heating water (when neccessary) both upper and lower sprayers spray from the bottom of their respective basket.

It's been good so far. I would do it again.

Oh, the one thing that is fairly unique. It does not have a heating element in the bottom of the tub. The drying system is kind of wierd but it works so I don't question it.

The advantage of no electrical element in the tub is that you can put plastic things on any level and not worry about melting them.

Thanks! This is quite helpful to me. I guess only people who don't like or have problems with anything they bought have more motivation to write a review than those people who like what they pay for.

Actually you are right. If people like something, they generally don't really make a big deal about it. If they don;t like something, they cry and yell about it like it's the end of the world.
