Pros:
Lights on face easy to read, nice sounding chimes. Light inside dryer drum.
Cons:
Dries unevenly, requires several touch up cycles, and cost.
The Bottom Line:
Shop Kenmoore and Whirlpool first. You'll save a lot of money for a better appliance. More cost isn't always better.

LG certainly knows how to market. Lots of bells and whistles but how well this dryer works is another story, sorry to say.
After checking installation and important items, we were on our way. The controls on this dryer offer many different modes and type of drying, although they didn't seem to make a huge difference. The only way to get clothes completely dry was on the manual and hottest heat mode, otherwise we had to run the drying cycle again up to three times. Yes, the chimes and lights are amusing but real performance was lacking. The unit is supposed to be quiet but was no more quiet than our 12 year old Kenmoore machine which it would replace as we wanted a few more features.
We're keeping the Kenmoore as it is a much better built and functioning dryer. Fortunately, the vendor, Best Buy, made the return very easy. Overall that much money is wasted on this dryer. I don't know if the other LG dryers are better but we'll stick with our good old Sears Kenmoore, thank you very much. Bottom line, save your money, you can buy a very good washer and dryer pair for the price of this overly expensive, poor performing appliance.
