Dynamic Heat Dry
Our Dynamic Heat Dry technology circulates hot air throughout the dishwasher for faster, more complete drying, delivering sparkling, table-ready dishes right off the rack.
QuadWash Pro
Tackle post-dinner cleanup like a pro with the enhanced cleaning power of QuadWash Pro. High-pressure jets, spray dishes from multiple angles, while soaking them with over one million microbubbles to help break down stubborn food residue and provide exceptional cleaning performance.

TrueSteam with Sanitization
LG TrueSteam uses the power of steam to penetrate food residue and help eliminate water spots by up to 60%².
Plus, LG dishwashers are certified by the National Sanitation Foundation to reduce bacteria on dishes by 99.999% and reach a final rinse temperature greater than 150°F when operated on the Steam cycle³ for peace of mind.
Hidden LED Front Timer
Conveniently manage your time with a hidden LED display that counts down the remaining cycle time. When the dishwasher is not in use, the display disappears for a sleek look.
Height Adjustable 3rd Rack
Use the handy slider to adjust the 3rd rack height—even when fully loaded—make room for taller items at the last minute. Not only can you save time and wash fewer loads, it’s also a convenient spot for hard-to-fit items like flatware, utensils or small espresso cups.
EasyRack Plus
EasyRack Plus lets you fit more dishes, run fewer loads and make short work of after-dinner cleanup. With three height settings, the upper rack adjusts effortlessly and smoothly to make room for tall stemware on top or oversize pans below.
LED Tub Light

Why waste time fighting a dishwasher rack that goes off track, especially when you’re in a hurry? The lower rack’s ball-bearing wheel design rolls out effortlessly—even when loaded with heavy pots and pans.
Flex Zone
Customize your cleaning to target different zones in the dishwasher. Set it to wash only the upper rack or lower rack, based on where the load is, or adjust the wash intensity to soft for the upper spray arm and strong for the lower, for just the right amount of pressure on each level.
Auto Cycle
With LG Auto Cycle, you have one less thing to think about. This feature automatically senses the level of dirt on your dishes and sets the wash cycle, so your dishes get optimal cleaning every time.
LoDecibel Operation (42 dB)
LG's LoDecibel operation lets you run the dishwasher whenever you want with whisper-quiet operation.
Top Control Panel With LED Display
Top controls with LED display are easy to see and use when the dishwasher door is open but hidden from view when the door is closed, for a seamless look that’s also easy to clean.
PrintProof Finish
PrintProof finish resists fingerprints and smudges to keep your kitchen looking its best. Now you can have all of the things you love about stainless steel—the premium look, the professional-grade durability—without special cleaners or constant attention.
3-Stage Filter System
LG's advanced 3-stage filtration system is tough on food residue and dirty dishes even if you don't pre-wash. Plus its advanced design makes it extremely efficient and quiet.

A: AnswerNo, but it is not necessary. The "Night Dry" option will leave open a vent inside the door which provides the same functionality while keeping the dishes inside sanitized (if the steam option is enabled).Answered by Billy

The LDPH7972S is worth every penny!!!
We got our LDPH7972S nearly two months and boy, is it fantastic! Actually, "game changer" sums it up best. Don't listen to the negative reviews - if you're like us and haven't upgraded your dishwasher in over 10 years, you will be completely awed by how AMAZING this LDPH7972S is in comparison. For starters, it is SO quiet! We never ran our old dishwasher at night, it was so loud. Not this one: we frequently run it on a delay after midnight for time of use savings on our electric bill and we never hear it running! Instead, we're greeted in the morning with sparkling dishes, cups and utensils to be put away. The LDPH7972S does an incredible job of cleaning and drying, especially compared to our old dishwasher. With Finish rinsing agent and quality dish detergent tabs, whatever we wash comes out sparkling clean. We've also found the Night Dry with Dry boost gets everything dry, with the only exception being the bottoms of upside-down coffee mugs or anything else that can collect water if not overturned and/or angled correctly. That's also vast improvement over what we were used to seeing with our old dishwasher. Another feature we like is how easy it is to lower or raise the second and third racks. I could go on about all of the great features of the LDPH7972S, such as the ThinQ app - but suffice it to say that every feature that LG describes on their website about this dishwasher are spot on and work just as described. But there are a couple of incredible features that might go unnoticed in other reviews, so we will mention them here. First, the LDPH7972S is a sleek and beautifully designed dishwasher that instantly upgraded our kitchen and forever transformed our experience with dishwashing. Second are the LED lights, both on the inside of the dishwasher as well as the external LED display that appears near the top center of the door when the machine is powered on. These latter two features are game-changers. Being able to see clearly inside the machine upon opening the door is obviously wonderful, and the exterior LED display is pure, high-tech sorcery. See our uploaded photo of the external LED: I can't stop marveling at how it magically appears without there being any hint of a display screen in the stainless-steel door. Thanks to this LED display, you’ll always know the time remaining on the selected wash cycle. It then displays “End” when done, so you’ll never have to open your dishwasher to find out if it’s really done. We love doing our dishes with the LDPH7972S and you will, too!

LG dishwasher
I recently purchased the LG dishwasher with 42dba that allows for conversations to continue uninterrupted, even in close proximity to the appliance. This is a game-changer, especially for those who value a peaceful home environment. Besides its quiet charm, the cleaning capabilities of the LG dishwasher are commendable. It tackles tough stains and dried-on food with ease, leaving dishes spotless. The adjustable racks and well-thought-out interior design make loading and unloading so much easier.. if you're in the market for a quiet, high-performing dishwasher, the LG model is certainly worth considering. I am pleased with my purchase and would recommend it to those seeking a top-tier dishwasher with a focus on quiet functionality.

The absolute best. And NO brand badges or handles
Replaced a 20 year old Jenn Air that probably cost twice as much. We almost went Bosch but the racks felt like dragging metal on concrete and we loved the ball bearing racks on the LG. I've been using this dishwasher nightly for 2 weeks and am ready to review. TL;Dr - It's fantastic! We use equate brand liquid dishwasher detergent and dry aid. So no frills. I run auto > steam > dry boost > night dry options. Wash quality: Dishes come out spotless and most importantly, bone DRY. EVEN TUPPERWARE. This has never been possible before with our Jenn Air. Bonus: The 3rd rack is useful for big knives, small lids, and some other utensils. Size: This thing is huge!! But it sticks out less than 1/2 and inch from the counter. The metal prongs are extremely sturdy and easily folded to make room for other size dishes. I like the LG's more standardized layout vs the Bosch 800 which felt like pure chaos. Finish: We love the non finger print stainless. For those concerned it looks JUST LIKE STAINLESS and not a cheap sticker. Matches our unbranded Samsung fridge and Jenn Air appliances 100%. Lighting: We love the interior lights. It's a little extra touch. Noise: Sound? What sound. This baby is so quiet I can't even hear it while standing in the same room. Drying: The night dry option with the fan that blows moisture out of the interior throughout the night is GENIUS for people who aren't there to immediately put away clean dishes. Summary:For the price I think this is the Bentley of dishwashers and I'm very happy with our purchase. It's also easy to install yourself. You only need a new dishwasher water line. Everything else is in the box.
