    Machine basically written off after 2 years
    Failed completely after 2 years. Unfortunately it was 2 months out of warranty. LG have given terrible service on trying to repair this, so no dryer for 8 weeks through winter In New Zealand. Finally, it appears the fault is in the compressor which cannot be repaired in New Zealand by their authorised repairer and the dryer is basically written off. Yet, it also states that there is a ten year warranty on the sealed unit compressor right here on the website! Beware would be my main impression.

    no reverse rotation and things don’t dry
    This is the absolute worst dryer I have ever purchased, take forever to dry towels, sheets, quilts . I bought this dryer because of the brand being a reputable brand as I have had LG products before and never had a issue and thinking it was going to things easier for me in the laundry, well that is not the case. I actually spend more time in the laundry opening the door and untangling things as they are all knotted up into a ball not drying as it doesn’t have reverse rotation and then it puts more time on timer every time the door is opened Therefore it takes even longer dry the items. Im sorry I bought this dryer. I now have to save for a different dryer

    Does Not Tumble Dry
    Overall, this is a solid and efficient machine. The sensor dry feature is particularly helpful, significantly reducing drying time when the appliance is loaded correctly. It's also energy-efficient, which makes running multiple cycles less of a concern. That said, I do wish it it has reverse tumble drying. I overlooked that detail when purchasing and should have read the reviews more thoroughly. Large items like bed sheets tend to bunch up very tightly during the cycle, requiring frequent checks and manual adjustments. Despite this minor inconvenience, the machine performs well and is a good choice for those seeking energy savings and effective drying when loads are properly sorted.

    Questions & answers

    does the heat pump dryer require an external vented duct or other additional ventilation or plumbing for installation? Anne · 2024-07-10
    Hi Anne, it requires no additional plumbing or external ducting. It condenses any water it collects into a water tank (the little drawer at the top left of the machine) that you empty at the end of each load. It also dries at lower temperatures and doesn't really release steam/hot air into a room the way a vented dryer does, so it takes a bit longer but is far gentler on your garments. Hopefully this helps =) Kind regards, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Does this dryer also come in black? Paul · 2024-07-07
    Hi Paul, not this exact model, I'm afraid. The closest we stock is the LG 8kg Heat Pump Dryer Black DVH9-08B. Hopefully this helps =) Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Hi I am confused because in the description it says a stacking kit is included but in a response to a question above you said it doesn't come with a stacking kit. Can you clarify thanks Amelia · 2024-04-20
    Hi Amelia, it didn't come with a stacking kit back in 2020. The inclusion of the stacking kit happened last year (2023). It does come with the stacking kit included now =) Kind regards, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    I'm looking at LG 8kg Heat Pump Dryer DVH5-08W stack on LG 13kg Front Load Washing Machine with Turbo Clean WD1013NDW and the details on the dryer says it Accessories included: Stacking Kit, Drying Rack, Extendable Drain Hose Kit. but your Q & A says no? Sharon · 2023-10-01
    Good Morning, Thank you for your inquiry about this product. Unfortunately, the drying rack has been removed by the supplier and is no longer included as an included accessory. However, the stacking kit and extension hose are still included in the product. If you need the drying rack, you can purchase it separately through LG's spare parts division.
