Score 10.0/10
Good points:
Having had an LG Direct Drive washing machine with no problems for the previous 6 years, I wasn't even going to consider another make. The outstanding thing about these machines is the lack of noise in use! My friends comment on the fact that it can be in full spin and make hardly any noise at all! This is as good as the last and in fact better because the wash cycle times are reduced saving money and the environment! I truly cannot recommend this enough.Just Brilliant!
Bad points:
The last machine we had was only replaced because the power switch failed but as it was part of a sealed (by a kind of silicone gel) circuit board my washing machine engineer couldn't fix it. The cost of a new circuit board £200 including VAT meant that we decided to buy a new machine instead of keeping our original as it was now 6 years old...So for me the only downside of this product is the non replaceable parts (because they are just too expensive) Not very good for the environment and we'd have happily kept the machine if we could have replaced the circuit board cheaply.

Quiet, excellent wash, clothes seemed drier at end of cycle than my previous washer even though this has lower spin speed
Bad points:
tendency to move slighty as I have floating wooden floor but wouldn't put me off and it can be remedied.

Here’s a list of the questions other shoppers have asked owners of the LG F1456QD

  1. Does the door stay locked for any length of time after the cycle has finished? My current machine makes me wait for 2 minutes before I can open the door which can be frustrating.
    Jackie asked on
    1. The machine "sings" a little song to let you know the programme is complete and the door is able to be opened straight away then (i.e.it's finished rotating!)
      Also the door is easy to open. My old machine needed you to press a button which seemed very fiddly.
      Sandy replied on
       
    2. Yes, but it's not as long as 2 minutes - more like 30 seconds although I haven't timed it. The manual states 1-2 minutes, but it doesn't feel that long!
      Charles replied on
       
  2. Is it possible to vary the spin speed, and can you spin without rinsing?
    David asked on
    1. The machine has 3 spin speeds 400, 800 and 1400. These can be varied within the programmes eg a sythentic and wool wash will only allow you up to an 800 spin.
      There is a spin only choice of programme.
      Hope this is helpful.
      Janet replied on
       
    2. You can set your programme onto rinse hold instead of the spin speed it automatically chooses, and then use the speed you want when the cycle has finished, and yes, you can spin without rinsing.
      Anne replied on
       
  3. I have just purchased the LGF1488QDP and have just started my first wash with excitement on how quiet the LG machines are supposed to be. I am horrified at the noise this machine makes when filling?? Is this normal?
    Lisa asked on
    1. On our Machine, the fill noise is no worse, than any other Machine that we have used in the past.
      But if you feel your Machine is excessively noisy, then it would be advisable to get it checked.
      Edward replied on
       
    2. As I stated in my posting the only noise that I thought needed getting used to was the initial pulsing of the electronic water valve. It pulses about 5 to 7 times depending on wash load. The last pulse starts the filling cycle to the required water level. After using the washer you will get used to the noise created and I don't think that there is a problem with the machine you have as other postings on various sites refer to the same. There is a contact "email" on the manufacturers web site that you could ask them the question.
