According to our washing machine expert
De LGFH4J6TS8 Direct Drive has a load capacity of 8 kilograms and is therefore suitable for households of 3 to 4 people. The washing machine has a steaming function that cleans your laundry thoroughly with steam, which will remove allergens from the fabric. This makes the washing machine suitable for people who are allergic to pet hairs or pollen, for example. Your laundry will come out of the drum cleaner and smoother and you can hygienically wash baby clothes. You can choose from programs for wool, delicate laundry, or gym clothes for example. The load sensor adjusts the program to the amount of laundry, so that you can also wash small loads. Thanks to the night cycle, you won't have to worry about waking someone up at night. Via the app, you can see exactly how long it will take for the washing machine to finish.

Unfortunately, our 6-year-old Samsung did not survive the move, we no longer had transport bolts. So a tip: don't throw it away! Had to buy a new washing machine and it became this LG. It was delivered by Coolblue and that went very well: took all the time for installation, connection and explanation. Kudos to these guys! Immediately in the afternoon I already did a wash and I immediately noticed how quiet this machine is. Only during the last spin at 1400 rpm you can hear it whistling (light whistle). The drum and door opening are nice and big, so there's no hassle to get laundry in or out easily. The touchscreen is well-arranged, but the selection buttons have a double function: for example, a short press is an additional rinse and a longer hold is wrinkle-free. There is also no lighting behind it, it is a bit unclear that white small print on a black background. Washing machine counts all important programs such as wool, delicates, bed linen etc. and are easy to set with the large illuminated rotary knob. It is a pity that the turbo mode can only be set for (cotton) main wash, this function shortens the washing program considerably and it is just as clean. Certain programs or the main wash without using this turbo mode last up to almost 4 hours!! Program that we often use (even if it is during the day), is the night wash program which is extra quiet. The drum starts more slowly and it takes calmer water, so it is really quiet, a pity that it is only suitable for half a load. Steam function only applies to two programmes: baby and anti-allergy. Towels and washcloths have been washed with it once and it feels softer and nice and fresh. We are going to do our duvet with it on a steam function, curious about the result. Just like our previous Samsung, this LG also contains a separate drum cleaning program. If you use this about once every other month (with a little soda salt in the drum) it will stay nice and fresh inside. We have not yet used the app function to download additional programs via your mobile phone to the machine, so no judgment on this. Finally, LG provides 4 anti-slip rubbers for under the feet with this machine. Use this if, for example, it will be placed on a smooth floor (laminate or tiles). These prevent any slipping, we glued them underneath and the machine remains rigid in place with a full load at 1400 rpm. This LG is a winner with a 10-year warranty on its direct-drive inverter motor.

I've had the LG FH4J6TS8 for two weeks now and I'm very pleased with it. The washing machine was neatly delivered on time and expertly connected. My eye fell on the LG FH4J6TS8, because of the stylish design of the door and the fact that it is incredibly economical. I can now also say that my expectations have been met. Thanks to the steam function, the laundry comes out super soft and a lot drier than with my previous washing machine. The neighbors will be happy too, because the LG is very quiet during the spin cycle. Both sportswear and delicate clothes come out neatly thanks to the different programs. What I really like about the washing machine is the happy tune when you turn it on/off. The touchscreen is not as intuitive as I had hoped, but together with the clear manual you are there within 2 minutes. A nice extra is the Bluetooth function to read out malfunctions, for example. All in all a very positive purchase and I can definitely touch the LG FH4J6TS8!

Because I moved in with my girlfriend and our washing machines both were in bad shape we had to look for a new one. First I looked on the internet to see what was for sale. Our eyes actually fell on this LG washing machine at the same time. The look of this machine was so huge that we went to see what this had in his march. With 3 times A+++-30% more efficient than most standard washing machines, this washing machine was a hit with us. The washing programs of the washing machine are also easy to set. From cold to 95 degrees and also a special drum cleaning program are optional on this washing machine. Also very suitable for families with children, there is also a child lock on it, which I find very useful because there are also grandchildren. Furthermore, this washing machine has too many options to list. We have had this washing machine for a few weeks now and are very satisfied. All in all a top washing machine and highly recommended.
