Four Reasons to Buy an LG Dishwasher

Four Reasons to Buy an LG Dishwasher

                                                                                                                               

Put Enhanced Cleaning in Motion

Achieve maximum cleaning throughout the entire cycle with LG QuadWash™. With four spray arms instead of two, QuadWash™ also includes Multi-Motion arms that rotate back and forth while spinning. The high pressure jets power-clean dishes from multiple angles.

Think you have to check on the dishes? Think Again

LG smart dishwashers come with SmartThinQ® technology built-in, so you can get smartphone notifications when a cycle is complete. That means less waiting and more time to yourself. You can even check on the cycle status with voice commands using the Google Assistant, so you don’t have to lift a finger.

Count On It

When you buy a dishwasher, you want something reliable that you can count on. Because the Direct Drive Motor uses fewer moving parts and operates more efficiently, LG confidently backs the motor with a 10-year warranty.

Easy Loading & Maximum Flexibility

The newly-enhanced EasyRack™ Plus system provides outstanding flexibility and convenience, adjusting to just about any load of dishes to help ensure optimal cleaning performance. Easy to adjust on-the-fly, this racking system can shift to handle any challenge your dishes can serve up.

  • Height Adjustable 3rd Rack

    The height adjustable 3rd rack gives you more space for hard-to-fit items.

  • Smooth Operator

    Even your hardest dish loads glide in and out smoothly with the help of LG’s Glide Rail.

Quiet Operation

LG's technological advances, like the Inverter DirectDrive motor and the advanced self-cleaning filtration system, were designed with quiet in mind. At 44dB, this dishwasher is among the quietest dishwashers in its class.

What People Are Saying

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works Great, Looks Great What I like: Works great and is very quiet. My favorite feature is the adjustable top rack to accommodate tall items. I originally thought that the third thin rack at the top, intended for flatware, would not be useful as I prefer to use the flatware basket. I had planned to remove it, but it turns out to be very useful for long pieces like spatulas, wooden spoons, etc. or other flat items (small plastic lids). What I don't like: Can't tell time left in the cycle without opening the door, and the long running time (an issue with all the new dishwashers not only LG). Overall I am very happy with it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from No water spots With the top rack for silverware I finally have no water spots on my sikverwre. The dishwasher cleans very well and I am happy with the results, my only con is that it is loud.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Dishwasher The best Dish washer ever owned period and good customer service support.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worth your time & money My wife and I took our time looking at and reading about dishwashers, LG had the edge on all the others in verbal description, but I still had to see and touch one before purchase. We ordered one to look at and loved it. So many features it made my head spin, and durning the first cycle of running it, all we heard was a little bit of water splashing around. No motor noise, no squeaking, no rattles, not a sound otherwise. I wish LG made automobiles. Love this LDT7797ST Dishwasher, thank you LG.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from More wash settings than necessary Why do designers keep adding bells and whistles to a product that really only needs a heavy, normal and delicate cycle. This dishwasher seems to clean the dishes well but the lower rack could use more divider tines. The thought, I guess, is for large kettles to set unencumbered by tines - really, kettles will set over tines. What about smaller storage containers, smaller mixing bowls? These items need the support of tines. If I live long enough to need another dishwasher, I will not get this style again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Outstanding dishwasher Our LG dishwasher was installed three weeks ago. Dishes emerge sparkling clean, the black stainless looks great and cleans easily. The third shelf allows space for small odd items without taking space in the other racks.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Much more cheaply made than our former dishwasher. This was a extended warranty replacement for a five year old LG that began to fail at the beginning of the fourth year. Everything about the replacement is lower end. The LG brand was selected only because we wanted something with a door handle to match the other LG appliances purchased at the same time. Now our LG refrigerator is experiencing door issues. Thank goodness for extended warranties.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from The ONLY reason this review is not a 5 is because my dishwasher took 3 months to get to my house. Other than that, the dishwasher itself is freaking awesome. Love the design, the quietness and all the great features it has to offer. The Smart ThinQ app that you can download that hooks up to the dishwasher through wi-fi is kind of neat. It basically tells you what cycle you selected on the dishwasher, the time that’s left, and then it alerts you when the cycle has stop. Overall I’m loving my new dishwasher.

Does this model have the ability heat the water beyond the temperature that the main house water heater is set at? My dishes are never very hot or clean at the end of a cycle even when using high temp. I'm wondering if I just have a defective unit.

I am shopping for a new dishwasher. Is LG’s “Delicate” cycle safe for china and crystal or do I look for a specific model that says China/Crystal?

Asked by: EMH52
Hello, the delicate cycle in our unit should be used to clean delicate items such as fine china and stemware.

1)Does the stainless steel exterior hide finger prints? 2) what is the Electrical current

Asked by: Double TT
The Stainless Steel on this LG Top Control Dishwasher with QuadWash™ and EasyRack™ Plus, Model # LDT7797ST is not fingerprint or smudge resistant. Not sure if when asking about the "Electrical current" for this unit you are asking about its Electrical requirements or the current which is measured in amperes? The Electrical Requirements are 120 V, 60 Hz AC only and a minimum 15 Ampere circuit breaker...^IFV

How long is the wash cycle take and is there a quick wash on any LG dishwasher?

Asked by: Terry 123
The LG Top Control Dishwasher with QuadWash™ and EasyRack™ Plus, Model # LDT7797ST has 9 wash cycles (Auto, Heavy, Delicate, Normal, Turbo, Download Cycle, Machine Clean, Rinse, Express), that will vary in duration. The actual running time and cycle time will be shown on the display but may change depending on options chosen, soil level, water temperature, and hardness of water. Therefore, display time and actual running time can be different. The Express cycle is designed for lightly soiled dishes and has the shortest run time (32-103 minutes)...^IFV
