Overview

  • 7.8 cu. ft. Mega Capacity
    Say never again to never-ending piles of laundry—this mega capacity dryer is among the largest front load ventless heat pump unit in its class² and can easily handle the laundry needs of a family of five. How big is 7.8 cu. ft.? Big enough to fit a king-size comforter and more in a single load for big time savings every week.
  • Sleek Ventless Design
    Space-saving ventless design means it can be installed virtually anywhere. No detail was overlooked in this dryer’s sleek, modern style. The flat front design with a choice of black steel, graphite steel or white finish and tinted, tempered glass door brings a premium point of view to your laundry space.
  • LCD Digital Dial Control
    Customize your dry—or let AI Dry do it for you. Laundry day is just that easy with LG’s built-in intelligence and intuitive LCD dial. Streamlined controls give you more of what you need with each turn of the dial, from descriptions of each setting and helpful prompts to status updates and remaining cycle time. Easily access more than 20 cycles and quickly modify any cycle using the touch panel for total laundry control.
  • Dual Inverter Heat Pump Technology
    Meet a more modern approach to drying. LG’s DUAL Inverter Heat Pump technology uses up to 65% less energy to dry every load³. Not only does this ENERGY STAR certified dryer feature LG’s most energy efficient ventless drying system, the low temperatures are easier on clothes and can help them look their best for longer. And with no need for venting, this dryer is easy to install and is virtually maintenance free.
  • ThinQ Smart Technology
    The ThinQ app offers control and convenience to help you simplify life and enjoy the comforts of home. Control your dryer remotely or use voice commands with Google or Alexa voice assistants. Plus, download additional cycles and access Smart Diagnosis, customer support, and more⁴.
  • Inverter Direct Drive Motor System
    When it comes to powerful, reliable performance, there’s just no comparison. Featuring LG Exclusive Direct Drive Dryer, this ventless dryer provides even drying performance and precise tumbling motions that are extra kind to delicates. You’ll enjoy quiet operation and greater energy efficiency than belt-driven motors—no belts, no pulleys, no worries. What else can you count on? The peace of mind of a 10-year limited warranty.
  • Built-In Intelligence. AI Sensor Dry with Infrared Sensor
    Forget about endless sorting or toggling through cycles—built-in sensors use AI technology to detect fabric texture and load size, then automatically select the right drying motions, temperatures and more for advanced fabric care. A combination of AI Sensor Dry plus an additional IR sensor detects moisture levels and automatically adjusts drying time for loads of all sizes.
  • All to ensure this ventless dryer delivers the LG drying performance you expect—no more damp clothes, no more over-drying.
  • ThinQ UP
    ThinQ UP enabled smart appliances receive continual software updates for new downloadable features and enhancements sent wirelessly to the appliance. Choose which features you want and customize your appliance based on your lifestyle and personal preferences.
  • ThinQ Care
    Available within the ThinQ app, ThinQ Care sends proactive usage, maintenance, and diagnostic alerts to your smartphone to help keep your LG smart appliances running smoothly.
  • Auto Cleaning Condenser
    Unlike some dryers that require manual cleaning of the condenser for optimal performance, LG’s Auto Cleaning Condenser does the work for you. Using water extracted during the drying cycle, it powerfully flushes away lint and debris every time you dry for better airflow, better drying and enhanced energy efficiency—automatically.
  • Closet Depth
    LG closet-depth washers and dryers are worth showing off, but when space dictates otherwise it’s good to know they’ll easily fit in a closet with plenty of room to close the closet door. Install the pair side-by-side, or get a stacking kit and install the dryer over the washer to save even more space.
  • NeveRust Stainless Steel Drum
    Unlike tubs made from porcelain or plastic, the LG NeveRust Stainless Steel Tub avoids the chips and nicks that can snag fabrics and ruin clothing. Durable surface actually gets smoother over time and keeps your dryer looking like new, even after years of use.
  • LoDecibel Quiet Operation
    Run the dryer whenever you want, without interrupting naptime or your favorite show. This dryer is designed for quiet operation, from the motor to the cabinet to individual components. Pleasant end-of-cycle chime lets you know when clothes are dry.
  • Wrinkle Care Option
    When you hate wrinkles but can’t be there to remove clothes as soon as they’re dry, just select the Wrinkle Care option before hitting start. The dryer will periodically tumble the load for up to 3 hours after the cycle is done or until the door is opened to help keep wrinkles at bay.
  • Dryer cords are not shipped with the dryer.
    It is the responsibility of the consumer to purchase the appropriate cord for their home.
