We got it delivered right before covid lockdown, so haven't had much need to do laundry cos we're not going out. So the loads are only 20-40% of the overall drum size, and about once a month.
Despite this, we're still getting lots of Residue and Lint on our clothes. (pic attached -- if you zoom into the full res of the 4th image 20200607_133726.jpg you'll see the huge RING of residue/lint)
We followed the difference pieces of advice online and from what LG posts in response to negative reviews: use less detergent, keep empty space in the centre, do small loads, use Deep Wash setting, use Extra Rinse...only thing we haven't done is switch our detergent, or do the "Tub Clean" 3 times. but still, the problems persist...the same problems we've had since the first 20% load.
UNFORTUNATELY we were testing all these different methods IN GOOD FAITH, and the 90 day Costco return has lapsed. so now we're left dealing with LG, which has been horrible thus far. I even asked them if there was a lint filter or anything to clean, and they said no.
So, my fellow RFDers...anyone with experience with these LG Washers and can help advise?
LG is our only avenue now and they want us to do the Tub Clean 3 times, then see what happens, and if the problem still persists, then they'll send a tech. but honestly i don't think a tech can do anything, as it seems like bad design of the machine. (from the various reviews i've read -- and i've read everyone on of them on LG.com!). i would really rather not go down this route if it's possible.
help me RFD...you're my only hope!
