Third-party reviews

What we like about LG F34R50WHS

  • A 13 kg capacity and an 81 L drum take a large load.
  • Energy use is 45 kWh per 100 cycles.
  • Six spin speeds let you choose how hard clothes are spun.
  • Duvet, anti-allergy and outdoor and sport cycles cover special loads.
  • The fastest cycle finishes in 14 min.
  • Spin drying and noise are both class A.

What we don't like about LG F34R50WHS

  • At 77 kg it is heavy to move.
  • It uses 58 L of water per cycle.
  • The ECO cycle takes 240 min.
  • Delay start can be set for up to 19 h only.
  • At 61.5 cm deep, it sticks out past standard kitchen units.

Verdict

An 81 L drum that takes 13 kg is the main draw of the LG F34R50WHS, a premium front loader for large households. A duvet, sports kit or a week of family laundry goes in one load. The machine uses 45 kWh per 100 cycles, and the 6 spin speeds let you pick a gentle or fast spin. Cycles for duvets, outdoor and sport kit and anti-allergy washing are built in. NFC connectivity and AI technology are uncommon extras. The trade-offs are size, weight and water use. At 77 kg and 61.5 cm deep, it is heavy to move and sticks out past standard kitchen units. It also uses 58 L of water per cycle. It suits a large family or a sports household that wants special cycles.
