Know before you buy

If you have a compatible LG washing machine, the dryer can communicate with it via the ThinQ app. The washer tells the dryer what cycle was just completed, and the dryer automatically selects the most appropriate drying settings for that specific load.
Yes, the door is reversible, allowing you to change the swing direction to best suit your laundry room's configuration and your personal preference.
FlowSense monitors the airflow in your dryer ducting. It alerts you when the duct is clogged or restricted, which helps improve drying efficiency and reduces the risk of fire hazards.
