    LG Heat Pump Dryer
    I’m very impressed with my new dryer. It runs so quietly I forget it’s on. The water container is easy to remove and empty. No more condensation buildup on windows and tiles. Clothes don’t crease as much as my old dryer, I virtually hang up or fold clothes with no ironing needed.

    Don't buy it if you want to reverse the door!
    One of the door screws is slippery so I couldn't take it off to reverse the door. Contact LG and I was told I have to pay for take the screw off even the screw is made by them. I just bought the dryer 3 weeks before.

    Questions & answers

    On the manual it says that it can be stacked on any LG front loaders but the stacking kit is for top plate 550mm and 600mm. My washing machine is LG WV5-1275W and the depth is only 535mm. Can this dryer be stacked on my washing machine? popcorn · 2022-02-15
    Good Morning, Thank you for this product question, the dryer you have selected will not be able to be placed on top as this is 690mm in depth, you may place this side by side or in another location, the depth of your washer is very shallow for most dryers to be able to be placed on top. The LG manual would be referring to all current LG washers in their range. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    Does this machine come with a stacking kit? Amanda · 2022-01-10
    Good Afternoon, Thank you for this product question, as per their Specification sheet attached below for you to view this model will come supplied with Extendable Drain Hose Kit & Stacking Kit Included. https://www.appliancesonline.com.au/public/manuals/DVH45-08W-LG-Specifications-Sheet.pdf I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances Online.

    I wanted to know if this can be wall mounted or can be stacked on top of my existing Bosch washing machine? Piyush · 2022-01-04
    Good Afternoon, Thank you for this product question, Heat pump dryers across all brands and models are NOT able to be wall-mounted due to their weight and there are no mounting brackets or provisions for these to be wall-mounted. Can this be stacked on top of any front load washer Yes however you need to check the depth of both machines to make sure the washer has plenty of depth to support the dryer? Look at the dryer's feet location don't just go by the overall depth, also an Anti Vibration mat should be considered as well like Model No: APL600. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances Online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    When it is finished, does it keep beeping until you turn it off or does it only beep once and then is quiet? anja · 2021-05-23
