LG DF355FW review and opinion
(Translated)Show original

Third-party reviews

What we like about LG DF355FW

  • QuadWash multi-directional spray arms provide deep cleaning coverage from all angles
  • Generous capacity holding up to 14 place settings
  • Quiet operation powered by an Inverter Direct Drive motor
  • Auto-open door feature naturally releases steam to improve drying
  • Flexible EasyRack Plus system with an adjustable third rack for cutlery
  • Smart home integration with remote control via the LG ThinQ application

What we don't like about LG DF355FW

  • Drying efficiency can be subpar, particularly leaving plastic items wet
  • Standard wash programs and cycles can feel excessively long
  • Internal configuration requires frequent manual adjustments for varied or mixed loads
  • Noise level can still be slightly noticeable in exceptionally quiet home environments
  • Resource and energy consumption rates are only moderate rather than highly optimal

Verdict

The LG DF355FW is a 60 cm freestanding full-size dishwasher in white featuring a 14 place setting capacity, a robust Inverter Direct Drive motor, and a 3-basket layout that includes a flexible EasyRack cutlery system and a third tray. It operates efficiently with a C energy rating, a consumption of 75 kWh per 100 cycles, and a water usage of only 9.5 liters per cycle, while maintaining an exceptionally quiet 41 dB noise level across 9 wash programs (including Auto, Turbo, Eco, and Express). Key pros include thorough cleaning from multi-directional spray arms, an 80°C high-temperature rinse option for deep sanitization, a 19-hour delay timer, and smart features via Wi-Fi connectivity through the LG ThinQ app. On the downside, some users note that complete drying on plastic items can occasionally be imperfect, certain standard washing cycles are quite long, and the internal rack layout can require frequent manual adjustments to accommodate mixed or bulky loads.
