Yes and no. I have the new Samsung AIO version of this LG. If you do smaller more frequent loads, it's neglible. If you do larger loads, yes it takes longer. For me at least, the longer times is offset by other factors:

1) I often don't get a chance to move cloths right after the cycle is done
2) If I completely forgot to move it, I had the stinky cloths issue where I had to rewash it and hope most of the smell disappears
3) I now run large load of clothes at night and wake up to fresh dry clothes
Strong word of advice check if your state currently has a rebate on these (my state is supposed to do so but hasn't yet started it) https://www.energy.gov/save/home-upgrades

Also make sure you religiously clean the various filters on this as there have been reports of All in One units having issues due to lint/etc clogging things (downside of being an early adopter, you're the beta tester of designs)
People hate on these because they're different and they're not for everyone but I've owned this LG for nearly a year.

Plan on ~monthly maintenance: clean refill soap dispensers; wipe with damp cloth or rinse lint vent, door seal, and heat pump radiator fins (carefully, I use a toothbrush); clean out the washer filter, run a tub clean cycle.

Dry garments made mostly with synthetics separate from natural fiber for more even & accurate drying. Some dampness feeling at the end of drying can be shaken off (closed air drying system).

Mostly automated washing & drying, more free space without a separate dryer, my electric bill is noticeably less, and now using the dryer doesn't involve pushing conditioned air out of the home.

Looks like a great deal. Price is only available in Black. Might want to update the post to reflect that.

Very decent deal, but read the reviews. Numerous complaints about not totally dry clothes. Still, many good reviews too. Best luck!

Unless your space is limited, go for the traditional washer and dryer. These combo machines have longer cycles. At least you can wash another load while you are drying.

You would have to change your laundry habits but this would save time overall. Loads can be washed and dryed while you sleep, while you work, etc.

Quote from big819 :
how's the wattage during the drying mode? its fine if it takes longer time but if it takes longer time and waste the same amount of watts or even more wattage then its really a turn off for me.
it's way more efficient. I have the samsung and the GE its much cheaper and easier. if you just replace a washer you can also double your output. The lint is easiest to remove on the LG the samsung has the best drying and the GE is middle of them. I'd say if you suck at lint removal the LG is the best one. The best performance is the Samsung and the GE is fine all around. the samsung lint removal sucks, it does have the best amount of cycles and the best detergent dispenser and pedestal.

It uses about 1/10th the energy of a standard electric dryer

I ended up going with the Samsung AIO at Costco also on sale. MUCH better reviews. Added a $400 freezer which triggered $400 savings so $1699 for AIO and a freezer. Threw in the Allstate 5 year warranty to cover AIO.

Is there a reason I'm seeing a price of $1,849.99 when I follow the link?

Edit: I'm sorry, I was looking aat the Graphite Steel color.


My interest would be in the space saved, which I'd use in install a utility sing in the laundry room, which is the first room in hte house after leaving the garage (with filthy hands!).

It looks like they slap income limits on heat pump appliances for most rebates.

Just curious but how are wrinkles in this vs a tumble dryer.

With a regular dryer there is more drum volume so less wrinkles. I feel like it would be worse in machines that have smaller space like this right?
