LG Buy More Save More Labor Day Savings Event Rebate

Offer Expires: 8/27/2026 to 9/16/2026 Must be postmarked by: 11/16/2026

Receive up to a $800 rebate with purchase of 2 or more qualifying LG and/or LG STUDIO Appliances. Rebate form must be postmarked by 11/16/2026.

Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Glitchy Dishwaher

DeyonJ 6/23/2026

I am terribly disappointed with this dishwasher. I had it just over a year outside of the warranty and it glitches terribly and often times does not finish cycles it just shuts off. Ive researched and this appears to be a common known issue with LG dishwashers Im disappointed that I paid $750 for the dishwasher and Im being asked to pay $400 repair for a known issue so soon after I purchased what I expected to be an awesome LG product. It has a 10 year motor warranty but the electric panel went bad in just a little over a years time.

Efficient dishwasher

Kitchen dishwasher 6/15/2026

The dishwasher is efficient. However to open the dishwasher you have to pull the front panel handle area. The very middle of the panel has the digital timer on it. A split occurred in the very area where you pull to open the dishwasher. This was after less than a year. We did have it replaced. Hopefully it wont keep happening

Good Dishwasher with little noise

Heather9999 6/3/2026

Its hard to praise an appliance for doing its job but this dishwasher has been quite good. It cleans well the adjustable rack is quite useful and the extra top rack has come in quite handy. One thing to mention is that it is very quiet I barely notice that its running due to the low noise. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a new dishwasher.

Exceptional value dishwasher

ZacM8911 6/2/2026

The dishwasher is of exceptional quality and construction. It cleans dishes very well with minimal noise. Washing capability is superior to a previous model I used from different brand. Display works well and offers plenty of status into cycles and fluid levels. Drying capability is slower than other machines Ive used with an element but a trade-off for decreased energy use.

ITS A SHORT TUB. MINUS ABOUT 1.5 HEIGHT.

ATL_DRU 5/23/2026

IT IS A SHORT TUB. I DID NOT KNOW DISHWASHERS COME IN SHORT OR TALL TUBS. I SLID THE UNIT IN PLACE AND THERE WAS THIS BIG GAP BETWEEN THE DISHWASHER AND BOTTOM OR COUNTERTOP. I PUT PIECES OF 2X4 UNDER THE BACK OF THE WASHER AND EXTENDED THE FEET ON THE FRONT ALMOST ALL THE WAY UP UNTIL 1 THREAD WAS SHOWING SO I COULD GET THE HEIGHT SET TO SCREW THE FRONT OF THE UNIT TO THE BOTTOM OF THE COUNTERTOP.

LG is a no-way product line for me

Qtbandit2189 5/13/2026

This product was terrible. Bought it 12/23 by 11/24 it was stopping during cycling not rinsing the digital readout was flashing on and off. We called LG support and honestly the support team needs real indepth training on being a CSR they engaged me like I was lying and thats a no no. They would not honor any of the warranties and I have to replace this 2 yr old dishwasher we paid over $1000 for. We will honestly never purchase another LG product and I have also relayed this info to Facebook nextdoor and friends/family that LG are inferior products that do not honor service or warranties.

Avoid LG anything

Avoidandrunaway 4/28/2026

I have had this product for 13 months. The sensor pad started to go out last month and would ding randomly. It was annoying but would still work. This month it has taken a turn for the worse and dings randomly and is hard to get started as the pad is now going out. I called LG support they had me reset it now it doesnt turn on at all and pad is unresponsive. Transfered me to service $300 to come fix. I paid around $600 for the unit. They offered no solutions just wanted my CC to schedule the work. If I canceled $149. No support no help just more money. They make a product just long enough to make it a year then want 50 of what you paid to fix it. This will be last LG product I ever buy as well as anyone in my family/friends/close circles. Do better. Any product that breaks in 13 months should have never been released.

HORRID CUSTOMER SERVICE

FrustratedCustomer123 4/22/2026

Installation went horribly wrong and NO ONE at LG will fix it. Its been 3 weeks and still not running properly. Spewing water from the PREVIOUSLY installed air gap. Spent 10+ hours calling on hold for an hour enameling and following up every day going through the presidential form AND contacting LG through Facebook messenger. LG does NOT stand behind their products and leaves you running in circles.

Awful.

Jam77 3/5/2026

This product is awful. It feels cheap. The drawers are so flimsy. Also nothing drys nothing Everything is soaked even in the extra dry setting. I called LG and the woman told me the dishwasher only works if I use pre rinse and flush the lines with hot water? So I need more chemicals and physically need to aid the machine to work? Tell me how that make sense. And apparently doing this agi things will make it work. Now can we take a bet as to if those things worked? I think we all know that answer. LG get your stuff together and stop cheaping out on your products. Also as I just tried to submit the review they changed the stars to three instead of the one I left them so Im sure the reviews are much worse for this product if people didnt notice them changing the stars.

Okay dishwasher

Likescoffeepnw 2/15/2026

I was hoping it would be okay and it is but only just okay. Noisy. Upper rack not the cutlery rack rocks like a seesaw kind of goofy feeling. Lower rack has vertical tines or nearly so that I find easier to load than my old bosch with the slanted tines. Washing performance is acceptable but it doesnt get rid of that whitish film out of the bottom of a saucepan. Drying performance is poor Did I mention its noisy? Rumbling away in the kitchen doing its okay job. And good grief that jaunty little chime is annoying. I was used to the silence of my old Bosch but I really did not like loading it which is why I wanted to try another brand. Regrettably I will keep using the LG until it croaks.

Do not buy - poor performer with no longevity

Rich 96 2/13/2026

Just died after 2 years and 4 months. Electrical issues where it would stop prematurely. On last run it wouldnt start cycle instead flashing all lights while beeping wildly before turning off and never turning back on. Even when brand new cycles take over 3 hours and leave some items unclean with most items still wet.

LG LDFN4542S Dishwasher A One-Year Nightmare

cdmanoise 2/8/2026

This LG LDFN4542S dishwasher has been nothing short of a disaster for just over one year. From day one it threw BE error codes nonstop. We followed every guideline: proper detergents multiple brands tried perfectly leveled even disassembled the drain pipes to make sure there were no blockages. Nothing worked. NOTHING. LGs solutions and forum advicebubble errors level errors drain issuesare a joke if you actually try to live with this machine. The troubleshooting is endless the dishwasher refuses to cooperate and the errors come back cycle after cycle like clockwork. The control panel is a nightmare tootouch it by accident when walking past and the machine turns on like it has a mind of its own. And dont even get me started on this so-called bubble errormore like a permanent unfixable headache. And the cherry on top? It leaked all over our kitchen floor. No warning no second chances. I didnt even bother trying to fix itI grabbed my tools and ripped this useless junk out. Permanently. We replaced it with a Bosch dishwasher at the same price and in just a few loads the difference is night and day: no error codes no leaks no ongoing torment. If anyone wants a guaranteed headache this LG is free and sitting in my garage. LG you should come pick this lemon up and explain why your dishwashers dont work. Otherwise just rundont walkaway from this nightmare.

Good Dishwasher. Terrible customer support.

Handyman22 12/20/2025

Nice dishwasher. Quiet. Does the job effectively. Looks sleek. Open/close latch is a bit loud. Installation is a joke. Installers came and started yanking on all the pipes and valves until a small leak occurred from the valve. Then tried to charge $120 to fix. Sent these clowns on their way. They left the new dishwasher unwrapped in the original box. Tried calling LG multiple times to get the install cost refunded and they have yet to address it. No response to email as well. Next steps will be interesting. DO NOT BUY DIRECT FROM LG. Youve been warned.

Not as great as I thought.

Ggm251 11/28/2025

Bought this model years ago but never left a review. At first I liked it. Its quiet and it sings to you when you start finishes. I like the added shelf up top the adjustable top tray but its harder to load dishes. I had more options to place more dishes inside on my previous dishwasher. The silverware attachment is too big and takes up too much room. Pretty stupid idea especially when you have that top tray but what I hate most about it is the ridiculous amount of time each setting is to wash dishes. 3 hours for a normal load? How stupid. Waste of bc energy and water and I dont care they have a quick setting which is also at 2 hours. If you uncheck the extra dry it changes the time setting to an hour but the dishes are wet. Not damp wet. And now Im seeing white spots on my silverware. Dont recommend.

65 OLED B5 TV AND DISHWASHER NOT IN STOCK ???????

TodK 11/18/2025

I bought 65 OLED AI B5 OLED65B5PUA and Dishwasher LDFN4542S on Nov.7 with Black Friday price and Free wall mount and 3 year warranty. I have lots of LG product in my home because I like LG but I am disappointed in these purchases. ETA was Nov.12 when I bought with LG.com. LG Customer service told me that Nov.13 there is no stock in TV and dishwasher on our warehouse. There is a TV in another warehouse they will reach out me with email and she said that they will send me TV in couple of days. Dishwasher will be in stock in Nov.21 and will send me after that. Today is Nov.18 and LG customer service can not give ETA of stock in their warehouse for both items. How its possible . I think there is TV and dishwasher another warehouse and they can not send to me because he told me that AI is making delivery/warehouse management and first come first get it. I dont understand how much hard to call the another warehouse and send to me He told me that you can cancel the order and buy again with different TV and dishwasher. This isnt a solution to my problem. I never thought LG the worlds largest electronics manufacturer would offer such a solution. There is only C5 OLED 65 and $400 more than B5 and I dont pay more than what I paid. Please someone call me with a solution without say to cancel purchase and I want to receive my TV and dishwasher. Thank you.

Disappointed

Lpino23 10/3/2025

Our dishwasher is 3 years old. Within the first year we realized that the rinse aid dispenser was leaking the rinse aid so we just stopped using the rinse aid. The second year we realized the two main trays started rusting. Basically the plastic that covers the tines had melted off and started developing rust in several areas. Two weeks ago while running a cleaning cycle the dishwasher started smoking and smelled like it was burning. A repair technician said that the circulation pump and heating assembly were fried. When he came to replace it then realized the motherboard was actually fried. He said do not bother fixing it just buy a new machine.

Worst product to buy

Worst product to buy 9/19/2025

Working with ABC Warehouse and LG has been a nightmare. I bought all my appliances brand new with an extended warranty yet my dishwasher was defective and leaking from the very first use. It damaged my new cabinets and flooring and after months of calls photos videos and case numbers the problem is still not resolved. Instead of honoring their promises both companies keep passing the blame. No accountability no solutions just endless frustration. I really regret falling for their rebate scam and shouldve just bought everything from Costco. #abcwarehouse #lg #lgelectronics #customerreview #lgappliances

The whole set is bad

Erica in nevada 8/13/2025

Worst. Splurged on the whole package dishwasher microwave gas stove and French drawer refrigerator with a drawer brand new - the nicest thing I can say is the refrigerator still works but it barely makes ice and dont get me started on the Craft Ice feature we paid a premium for. Almost immediately 3 of the 4 the LCD displays start to flicker - annoying - but not a huge deal. But then - the stove started throwing an F9 error and would not heat. The gas stove cant self-light half the time - but hey I have matches right? But the worst is the dishwasher. The cycles are STUPID long and dont clean dishes well even though they go in already clean - just in need of being sterilized. But - within a year - every other week or so - it does not finish the almost 4-hour cycle and the dishes are wet covered in tiny particles and 1.5 of standing water in the bottom. The solution - it turns out - is to unplug it drain the water super fun tilt the whole thing forward and wait three days for it to dry out. Of course - by design - it only happens when the diswasher is full of dirty dishes. LG appliances - never again.

Do not buy this dishwasher After 6 months the circuit board had to be replaced and then another 8 months later it needed it again. After 1 year warranty is up customer service wont do anything but charge you a flat rate of 400 to have someone came out and do it.

Diana Valencia 7/9/2025

Purchased in April 2022. Started using June 2022. Gave me the HE error code. Husband pulled it out and some wires are literally burned to ash. Called LG customer service. Transferred me 5x and said basically I have to pay to fix because its not under warranty. I asked if their products cant last longer than 3 years they said actually they can depends how you use it. Ive had dishwashers my whole life. Never had one burn out in 3 years.

LG Ignoring $300 Buy More Save More Rebate

Hamed Ba 6/24/2025

LG Ignoring $300 Buy More Save More Rebate No Accountability After 14+ Attempts I purchased three qualifying LG appliances directly from LG.com under their Buy More Save More promotion. The deal clearly advertised a $300 rebate when buying three eligible items which I did. However the rebate was not applied at checkout and despite contacting LG immediately the issue remains unresolved after more than 14 attempts over phone and email. Heres what happened: I contacted Customer Service: they told me to contact LGOffers. LGOffers told me to talk to the Claims Department. Claims said the rebate should have been applied at checkout and refused to help. I went back to Customer Service who either disconnected the call or refused to escalate to a supervisor. Every time I call Im told weve emailed them and are waiting on a response. Nothing happens. To make matters worse the WashTower I purchased was not installed on delivery because the driver showed up alone and left it behind. Installation was delayed nearly three weeks after delivery. This rebate was a deciding factor in why I chose to buy directly from LG instead of a local store. Instead of honoring their promotion LG has given me nothing but runaround refusal to escalate and complete silence to my emails. Ive tried for weeks to resolve this privately and professionally. Ive now filed complaints with the BBB and FTC and Im sharing this publicly so others are aware. If LG truly values its customers someone should take ownership honor the rebate and prevent other customers from being put through this frustrating experience.

Worst dishwasher ever not user-friendly

Coral K 6/14/2025

This is the worst dishwasher I have ever had. I have to get on my knees to read the front panel and Im old I cant switch it from one setting to another without reading a book on how to do it. If I was to buy another one it certainly would not be this one. It doesnt dry also my knives are rusty now because they sat in this dishwasher wet.

Motor only lasts for a few months.

This product is not reliable and LG knows the product is inferior to other brands. The motor has a 10 yr replacement but you pay the cost of a new unit with service fees. Warranty is limited.

Terrible customer service

jjbunchu 4/15/2025

The washer is great but the customer service is trash. I spent 1.5 hours getting disconnected 4 times because the web site says free install kit. Finally they told me that I should have added 2 items to the order when it was placed and now there is nothing that can be done. Stupid me....

Awful buzz completely broke after less than 3yrs

Kimmbaaaahaha 4/14/2025

Loud low decibel migraine-inducing buzzing. I could only run it overnight or would drive me crazy. Long cycles. Top controls always accidentally touched. Good rack design cleaned very well for 2 years. Filled with water stopped working. Warranty service said needs new part but charging over $400 to fix after less than 3 years Horrible service. Dont waste your money Over $900 for 2.8 yrs

Fraudulently advertised as a ThinQ unit.

Misled buyer 3/31/2025

Pictures that LG uses clearly show this as being ThinQ compatible and therefore eligible for the free extra year warranty but this unit DOES NOT have ThinQ. Very shady business practice by LG. Basically tricking people into buying a model in the hopes of having a 2yr warranty just to find out that they are only eligible for 1 year. I have Multiple LG items in my home but unless LG makes this right by offering a free 2nd year like the item they used in the pictures to sell this model is eligible for I will never purchase another product from them again.

Front Panel LDFN4542s not same as other same mdls.

KMTF2 3/30/2025

I bought the LDFN4542s from Best Buy online then picked up at store. Everything seems fine except the front panel does not have some of the marking on the panel like front left LG logo Quadwash logo on top of panel and the 10 year motor placard on mid lower right. Mine just has LF logo printed on the top left of panel. I cannot find any reason for this. Maybe counterfit?

Just over a year and a half and it caught fire.

David W 2020 3/23/2025

1 year and 7 months old and electrical fire on the motor wiring. Out of warranty and the best LG will do seemingly is send a tech out to make sure its safely unplugged. Tells me its gonna be at least a few hundred to repair. It was a broken button could have burned down my house. Poor form LG.
