Lab test · Shallow-fit 9kg washer
Verdict
The LG F2X50S9TLB fits 9kg into just 56.3cm of real depth, suiting tight spaces, but its 1200rpm spin leaves towels damp and it moves on unbalanced loads.

Third-party reviews

What we like about LG F2X50S9TLB

  • 34 kWh per 100 cycles keeps running costs low.
  • Its 47.5 cm depth suits a narrow space.
  • The 39 min quick wash handles up to 5 kg.
  • Mini Load suits a small amount of laundry.
  • AI technology is an uncommon extra.
  • Baby Care cycle and child lock suit a home with children.

What we don't like about LG F2X50S9TLB

  • Washing noise of 71 dB is loud during a cycle.
  • Only 12 washing programs limits the choice.
  • Delay start stops at 19 h, short of a full day.
  • There is no automatic detergent dosing.
  • Unbalanced loads cause moderate vibration and occasional bumps.

Verdict

Tight spaces are where the LG F2X50S9TLB earns its keep, a 9 kg washer that uses 34 kWh per 100 cycles. Its depth of 47.5 cm lets it fit where a standard machine would stick out. The 39 min quick wash takes up to 5 kg and removed coffee stains in tests. Two extras set it apart: AI technology and Mini Load for small loads. Wi-Fi and Smart Pairing add connected options, and the interior light helps when you check a load. The trade-off is noise: 71 dB on both wash and spin, and only 12 programs to choose from. It suits a family or couple that does a lot of laundry, wants low running costs and needs a slim fit against a wall.
