Verdict

The LG DF273FV is a high-efficiency, freestanding 60cm dishwasher with a 14-place setting capacity, distinguished by its premium 'A' energy rating and whisper-quiet 44 dB Inverter Direct Drive motor. Key characteristics include QuadWash multi-angle spray arms, TrueSteam technology for eliminating stubborn food residues without pre-rinsing, and EasyRack Plus for flexible, height-adjustable loading including a dedicated third cutlery tray. Pros are exceptionally thorough cleaning, smart remote capabilities and cycle downloads via the LG ThinQ app, and an auto-opening door that saves energy during the drying phase. Main cons include extended cycle run times (up to almost 5 hours on Eco mode), and occasional drying inefficiencies with plastic items compared to traditional heated drying systems.

What customers like about LG DF273FV?

  • Excellent cleaning performance provided by the QuadWash four-arm spray system.
  • TrueSteam technology effectively loosens stubborn, dried-on food and minimizes water marks on glassware.
  • Highly flexible loading options due to the adjustable middle rack, collapsible tines, and a dedicated third cutlery rack.
  • The auto-opening door feature helps steam escape and improves natural drying efficiency.
  • Operates very quietly at 44 dB thanks to the Inverter Direct Drive motor.
  • Convenient remote monitoring and cycle notifications through the LG ThinQ Wi-Fi application.

What customers dislike about LG DF273FV?

  • The LED display indicating the remaining time or 'END' status can be overly bright in dark environments.
  • Requires the consistent use of rinse aid to achieve completely dry dishes, as it relies on a condensation drying system.
  • Some long-term customer reviews note vulnerabilities in rack durability, such as wheels detaching or sticking over time.
