Lg washer and dryer tower

[SABDELLAHI]

Hi,

Does anyone own a LG washer and dryer tower?

is it worth buying?

Personally I think you would be better buying two separates with a shelf fixing kit. It means if one goes faulty out of warranty you can replace it without replacing the whole unit. Have a look at Miele, Bosch, Siemens. The shelf fixing kits holds the two together and has a shelf you can slide out when emptying the tumble dryer.

I agree with PP, I’d be worried about what happens if one machine breaks, I’d have to replace the whole thing. It’s easy enough to stack two separate machines with a stacking kit (with a shelf ideally). I can see the tower has a couple of clever features that make the two machines work together but these don’t seem valuable enough to be worth the added risk of having the machines built together.

A couple of other thoughts,

First, I couldn’t see the washing capacity but suspect it’s small as they talk about how compact the machine is. I have an 11kg LG and it’s a godsend having such a big capacity, reduces my loads per week right down.

Second, I think it’s a condenser only dryer, so you’d have to keep emptying the condenser unit into a sink, there’s no option to plumb it in so the water drains away. I used to have a condenser dryer, I then got it plumbed in and would never go back!

So another benefit of two separate machines is you get to choose the ones with the features that matter to you.

I have an lg stackable washer and dryer and it has been solid for me.
The cycles run fast, it handles big loads, and it is quieter than I expected.
The tower setup saves a lot of space, which was the main reason I bought it.
The controls are easy to reach even with the dryer on top.
If you want something reliable that fits a small laundry area, I think it is worth buying.

We have a floor standing wm within a specially made cupboard with a very sturdy shelf for the TD. It is made to measure within my laundry room. Above the TD is a cupboard for the detergents.
