I have a thinQ model made by LG
It’s 3 years old and it sits on top of the matching washer dryer
It’s by far the best washer and dryer we’ve ever had

I don’t know the drum size

LG ThinQ washers and dryers are

LG’s line of smart laundry appliances featuring Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing remote control, cycle monitoring, and maintenance alerts via the LG ThinQ app. They often include features like AI fabric sensing, Steam+ for allergen removal, TurboWash for faster cycles, and integration with smart assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant. These appliances come in separate stackable units or as compact all-in-one washer/dryer combos, offering advanced fabric care and convenience.

Key Features of LG ThinQ Laundry:

  • Smart Connectivity: Use the ThinQ app to start, stop, monitor, and get notifications for your laundry from your smartphone.
  • AI DD (Artificial Intelligence Direct Drive): Detects fabric type and load size to select optimal wash motions for better fabric care.
  • Steam Technology: Cycles like Allergiene use steam to remove dust, pet dander, and pollen.
  • TurboWash: Significantly reduces laundry time for normal loads.
  • Smart Home Integration: Works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for voice commands and notifications.
  • ThinQ Care: Provides maintenance tips and alerts for your appliances.
  • Combo Units: All-in-one models offer washing and drying in a single machine, ideal for smaller spaces, with some featuring a 2-hour wash & dry cycle.

User Experience:
Reviews mention user-friendly apps, effective cleaning (though some prefer extra rinses), and convenience features like remote start. Some users find the all-in-one models efficient, while others with separate units appreciate the robust features.

Models Available:
You can find various models, including compact all-in-one units and full-size washers and dryers that can be stacked or installed side-by-side, often sold in sets.
