Third-party reviews

What we like about LG V7 F4V709STSE ThinQ

  • A 9 kg drum handles a full family load in one go.
  • 20 downloadable programs add cycles for tricky fabrics.
  • Wi-Fi lets you start or check a wash from your phone.
  • The Night/Silent option keeps late washes quiet.
  • Self-cleaning function helps keep the drum fresh.
  • The motor carries a 10 year warranty.

What we don't like about LG V7 F4V709STSE ThinQ

  • The spin reaches 72 dB, which is loud in the next room.
  • 58 kWh per 100 cycles and a B energy class mean higher running costs.
  • The delay start reaches only 19 h, so you cannot set it days ahead.
  • There is no foam control system to deal with excess suds.
  • There is no AquaStop, so a hose leak is not stopped automatically.

Verdict

Built with direct-drive engineering to deliver whisper-quiet acoustics and fabric preservation, the LG V7 F4V709STSE ThinQ front-loading washing machine provides a 9 kg laundry capacity with a maximum spin rate of 1400 RPM. Powered by an AI DDâ„¢ Inverter Direct Drive motor attached straight to the drum without belts, it achieves an exceptionally quiet spin acoustic level of 72 dB, earning premier noise Class A honors alongside energy Class B credentials. The machine features fourteen tailored wash cycles, enhanced by Steam+â„¢ hygiene technology that eliminates 99.9% of allergens and reduces wrinkles. Smart Wi-Fi connectivity via the LG ThinQâ„¢ app enables remote control, voice commands, telemetry, and cycle downloads. Further conveniences include a 14-minute quick wash, stain treatment, and Pause & Add. Notable omissions include energy Class B performance, manual detergent dispensing, and standard water protection without AquaStop.
