Verdict

The LG DF273FVS is a full-size freestanding dishwasher featuring a 14 place setting capacity, 10 wash programmes, and a highly efficient A energy rating, consuming 54 kWh per 100 cycles and 9.5 litres of water per wash. Key characteristics include TrueSteam technology to eliminate 99.99% of bacteria, a multi-directional QuadWash four-arm spray system, and an Inverter Direct Drive motor that ensures exceptionally quiet operation at 44 dB. Major advantages include its flexible EasyRack Plus system with a 3rd-level cutlery drawer, a Dual Zone Wash feature for custom rack pressures, an automatic door opening mechanism for enhanced drying, and smart Wi-Fi connectivity via the LG ThinQ app. On the downside, some configurations lack an integrated overflow protection sensor, it requires a dedicated cold fill water supply, and its smart app reliance may complicate setup for non-tech-savvy users.
