LG's deluxe dryer has smarts, style, and speed (pictures)
Priced at $1,500, the LG DLEX 5000 is a sizable investment, but in return it delivers fast drying performance, an elegant design, plenty of features and connection to a mobile smartphone app.
Drying power meets stylish laundry looks
The LG DLEX 5000 is a powerful clothes dryer with sophisticated style, features and smart home abilities to match.
A big drum that could be bigger
While the LG DLEX 5000 sports a stainless steel drum with a big 7.4-cubic-foot capacity, other dryers offer 7.8 even 9 cubic feet of space.
Spin the knob to select your cycle
The dryer's main control is a large knob you use to select which drying cycle you'd like.
Lots of additional controls
To the right of the knob is another control area. Here you'll be able to tweak other settings such dryness level and cycle temperature, plus you can activate the machine's Wi-Fi radio.
Smart and app-connected
One of the more interesting attributes of the LG DLEX 5000 is its ability to link to LG's Smart Laundry application. You can use it to monitor and control the appliance from iOS and Android handsets.
Dryer command and control
Control many dryer functions through the mobile app as well as monitor cycle status remotely.
Use the app for updates
LG's Smart Laundry app is handy but is crowded with features. Still, it lets you download new features and software.
Steam to smooth wrinkles and creases
The Steam Fresh cycle uses steam to smooth wrinkles in about 10 minutes.
