Anecdotally, I loathe my LG and am trying to figure out what to replace it with.
I have replaced the drain pump on it 5 times, because they did a terrible job designing the strainer basket, and the impeller is very fragile. It only takes a few strands of long hair to reach 3/4" past the strainer basket to tangle and break the impeller.
It's also an all in one, but the dryer functionality was clearly designed as a bolt on afterthought. There's no lint filter so inevitably lint builds up and choked off airflow. Then the air temp gets hot enough to melt the front boot.
When we first got the unit, our 40psi water pressure ruptured two internal hoses because lg couldn't be bothered to use fiber reinforced hoses. Dealing with potential water damage so lg could save a few cents is not worth it.
I will actively avoid LG going forward.
Which one did you get? All I've heard are good things from LGs current washer/ dryers

I love the all in one concept, but this machine has made me reluctant to get one again.
There's a GE all in one with heat pump drying that I think would be the functionality I want, but the machine is huge.
Ah I see, I feel like lot has changed since that model (nervously looking at my LG). Just remember that current heat pump dryers still have issues with lint clogging the coils dispite the filters and coil cleaning systems.
