Tromm

Tromm is the trade name for washers and dryers manufactured by LG Electronics. They are designed and often sold in pairs and have many functions, such as child lock, delayed wash timers, and multiple spin speed selection. All LG Tromm washers are front-loading and feature a direct drive motor which eliminates belt drive of the wash drum, a design which extends motor service life and allows LG to extend a seven-year warranty on the motor drive mechanism.

Among its many selling points are different color selections for the machines, such as blue and red finishes on their higher-end models. They spin very fast (up to 1350 rpm) so clothes dry faster when taken out from the washer. Some of the Tromm washers have a very large capacity (up to 4.0 Cubic Feet IEC) for residential models. High-end LG washers feature SteamWash, a proprietary technology that does not immerse clothing in water and allows it to be quickly refreshed.

LG TROMM washing machines have a pump filter that must be cleaned twice a month in accordance with the owners manual. When opening filter water leaks into and under the machine. You will have to keep a rubber mat under the machine and clean it regularly. A large rubber gasket on the TROMM washers' door has a hidden gap, in this gap steam feeds mold that stinks (a lot). Most of the TROMM machines are steam machines that require expensive detergent. The savings in water does not offset the cost of special detergent, extra maintenance and work.
