LG F1096ND3 Washing Machine Reviews

LG washing machines assembled at a Russian factory are in demand. They are affordable and of good quality. The model range is quite diverse, so when choosing a specific model, buyers want to know as much about it as possible. The best source of information about a washing machine is its user, so in this article, we've compiled customer reviews of the F1096ND3.

Positive

Ilyashenko Anna, Moscow

I like everything about this car, I haven't found any flaws. Everything is absolutely clean and odorless. Since I had one before Margherita 2000 car, this one looks like a spaceship in comparison. Thanks to the reviews, I bought this particular model, so please leave your comments; they might really help someone make a decision.

Six months ago, we bought a LG F1096ND3 washing machine with a 6 kg capacity, as we now have a small child and have to do laundry every day. It fits perfectly in the bathroom, and its classic white design. The biggest advantage of this model is its economy. Thanks to automatic weighing, the machine fills with the exact amount of water required for the laundry, but the time, of course, remains the same.

I spin my laundry at 800 rpm, which doesn't make the same noise as with a higher spin. However, this is quite sufficient; the laundry is almost dry. There are many modes, but in my opinion, they take too long, all lasting two hours or more. Conclusion: the machine earns 4 out of 5 stars; it's no different from my old 3.5 kg machine, also from LG.

This washing machine isn't just a helper, it's also a beauty. We bought it four years ago, on the advice of a sales associate. It washes without a problem, and it hasn't broken down in all that time. The controls are simple, and you can adjust the spin cycle. It holds a lot of laundry, but we still have to wash it twice a day because we have two kids and a summer house.

There's a useful feature: a child-proof locking panel and door. The design is nice. That's about all I can say.

Tatiana, St. Petersburg

A few years ago, we bought an LG F1096ND3 washing machine, and we haven't regretted it. Our large family does laundry often, almost every day, and the machine hasn't changed a bit, looking brand new. It washes efficiently, isn't noisy, and doesn't wake the kids. We love the child lock feature. I always use the self-cleaning feature about every 3-4 months to keep it running longer. We later gave the same model to my mother and mother-in-law.

I've been using this washing machine for a year now. I think it's fantastic because it's quiet and has 13 useful programs that allow you to wash different types of fabric, even blankets. The machine automatically assesses how full the drum is and adjusts the water level accordingly. It has a useful self-cleaning feature, and when the cycle is complete, it beeps and automatically shuts off. It's also energy efficient. Overall, I highly recommend it.

We struggled to find the right washing machine for a long time, and finally settled on an LG. We're happy with the purchase; we wash every day, sometimes even several times a day. It works great, and the programs never freeze. It has a wide range of programs, useful features, and is easy to use. The instructions are written in an accessible language. It hasn't let us down in over a year. We have no regrets and recommend it to everyone.

Negative

Alexander Kuzmin, Moscow

It's not a washing machine, it's a construction kit. Just buy it and keep tweaking it. The main danger is that the LG F1096ND3 washing machine suddenly splashes water into the tank and then shuts off abruptly. Not smoothly, as it should, but abruptly. This causes the pipes to shake violently, sometimes even violently. This indicates water hammer. We wash frequently, and our long-suffering pipes endure 10-12 such shocks a day. It's not hard to guess that this will soon result in a leak, if not a burst pipe.

Now I need to decide what to do. I think I should buy a pressure stabilizer, but I'm hesitant to throw a fit and return the car just to be on the safe side. By the way, I contacted the service center, and they sent a technician, and quickly. The technician went through everything, checked the connections, looked at the hoses, and said it was supposed to be like that, then packed up and left. Afterwards, I tried to solve the localized hydraulic shock problem with a pressure-reducing valve, but nothing worked. Now I'm thinking about it!

I've been using my washing machine for quite some time now, but I still can't figure out why it takes in so little water. I've seen loads of laundry dangling around in the drum with very little water. This results in significant wear and tear of items, poor rinsing quality and many other unpleasant things. My old machine rinsed much better, it's a shame it broke down completely; otherwise, the "old girl" would have kept on washing. I didn't like the new technology, not at all!

Margarita, Moscow

The button sounds and the melody at the beginning and end of the wash cycle are annoying in this machine. The Koreans could have come up with something more original for a modern machine. And the volume can't be turned down, so you have to listen to this annoying noise the whole time. The delay start feature is also disappointing. You set the timer for a certain delay time, but it starts the wash early or doesn't start it at all—that only happened once. Overall, I didn't expect such a betrayal from LG, and I'm not happy with the machine.

Valery Boldakov, Pskov

The machine looks fine on the outside, but when I started using it, my mood plummeted. Firstly, it doesn't have an extra rinse, which I should mention, my previous machine had one, and I've gotten used to it—it's a good thing, after all. Secondly, you can't turn on the super rinse on the 30- and 60-minute programs—what the hell. Thirdly, the rinse is terrible: you take the laundry out and there's even a little suds left on it. Let the Koreans use such technology themselves, but don't try to sell us THIS!
