I bought a set of front loading, stackable, LG washer and dryer from here. Everything seemed to work as you would expect a used set of washer and dryer to, until I tried to run the steam freshen option and it didn't work.
Not wanting to have a tech come out for no reason I investigated to see if there was possibly an easy fix. What I found was that the washer boot absolutely COVERED in gunk and mold, most of which was behind and within the the folds of the boot that was not easily found, or impossible to find, without without taking apart the machine and removing the boot itself.
I live by myself and I've owned these these appliance since June 4th, I don't exactly go through a ton of laundry so there no way all this is from me.
When I called the response I received was that they were now out of warranty and if I had looked more thoroughly when they were being installed they would have replaced the boot. Interesting. Was I supposed to stop the two men delivering and installing the appliances to disassemble, then reassemble, them just to make sure a ton of mold and buildup wasn't left hidden in my washer? This is the kind of thing you would expect any reputable seller to have already taken care of and its ridiculous to say otherwise.
After being told that I should of looked at the appliances better I was then told that I could schedule a service call for them to come out and look at it. Why I would ever pay this company more money do to the job they were already supposed to have done is beyond me, no thank you.
And even after all of disgusting discoveries, my steam freshen option is still not functional. But I guess I should be grateful for that since it allowed me to find this.
