Spin efficiency – The 1400rpm spin left washing comparatively dry on the 30ºC cotton wash but it was wetter after the 40ºC mixed load.

There’s a certain level of expectation when you’re spending more on a washing machine and the LG F4V909BTS doesn’t disappoint. Its design is loaded with features, the most instantly noticeable of which revolve around getting laundry in and out. With allergy and baby care programs, steam technology sanitises your clothes with pure water. Awarded the British Allergy Foundation Seal of Approval, clothes are noticeably softer on your skin.

Prevent fabric damage with AI DD™, LG’s 3rd gen beltless Direct Drive. Using the brilliance of artificial intelligence to analyse load weight & softness to automatically adjust movement during a wash. LG are so confident they give a 10 year warranty on their Direct Drive motor. LG washing machines have a two-year guarantee as standard. Some washing machines qualify for extended five-year guarantee at no extra cost. For starters, there’s a sheet of tempered glass covering the concave dip in the door – an attractive addition that helps to minimise noise and ensures there’s one less place for dirt to gather. And while that door leads to a porthole that’s not much wider than average, it swings open further. This means that stuffing large items in and getting them out is less of a battle, and you can make the most of the drum’s 68l volume. As you’d expect, despite opening wider, there’s no annoying clash between the door and the detergent drawer.

TurboWash™360°

Spend less time on laundry and more time on you with LG's TurboWash™ 360. A multi-directional pressure jet sprays water directly onto clothes, cutting the wash time to just 39 minutes. Autodosing, often included in machines at this price point or higher, is perhaps the only feature it doesn’t have. There is no fill and forget option – just a standard detergent drawer with sections for softener, detergent and pre-wash – and no option for using less detergent in each wash. Performance We introduced a new test for washing machines in September 2022. Because this is a model tested before these changes came into effect, the score won't be directly comparable with the scores achieved by models published after.
