The best LG dryer in 2026 is considered to be the LG DLEX5500W 7.4 cu. ft. Electric Dryer with Dual Inverter Heat Pump for electric, and the LG DLGX5501W Gas Dryer for gas, with the LG WKEX200HWA WashTower as best space-saving combo. The DLEX5500W stands out because it offers two modes in one machine: a conventional vented mode for fastest drying and a heat pump mode that is Energy Star Most Efficient certified and uses up to 60 percent less energy by recycling hot air instead of venting it outside. It features TurboSteam that de-wrinkles clothes in 10 minutes, AI Sensor Dry that uses artificial intelligence to detect fabric texture and moisture levels, Allergiene and SteamSanitary cycles, a large 7.4 cubic foot stainless steel drum, and smart ThinQ app control with energy monitoring and remote start. For those who want the best value without heat pump, the LG DLEX4000W remains the best overall value with nearly identical drying performance, quiet operation, and reliability at a lower price point around 799 to 999 dollars. For gas homes, the DLGX5501W offers the same features with gas heating for lower operating costs where gas is cheap. All feature d80, d90, d95 vent blockage detection and a 1-year full plus 10-year motor limited warranty.
