Why NSI Protection Plus?

Our service plan is an economical way to extend the terms of your product's manufacturer parts & labor warranty.

Most manufacturer's limited warranties leave customers with no protection against the rising cost of repairs.

Even the best products can malfunction and the most minor repairs can cost hundreds.

About NSI Protection Plus

Administered by Warrantech and insured by AmTrust Financial, NSI Protection Plus is the largest service network in the industry with 30 years of building the network and over 22 million in paid claims.

The most comprehensive repair plans in the business!

  • Day one coverage on special features
  • Removal and reinstallation coverage
  • $25 Laundry credit (Washers and Dryers)
  • 5 year appliance contracts include 10 year major component coverage
  • $250 Food credit (per incident, eligible products)
  • The only true "No Lemon Guarantee" in the business
  • No "CAP" on repairs or replacement, unlimited repairs.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Front Load BFF

KeMarie 9/25/2023

This washer is amazing. It gets the clothes super clean and very efficient. Seems like barely any water is being used. I love the bay array of settings to get the right cleaning based on material or type of load. I love the quick wash cycle which is 15 minutes. Definitely comes in handy when in a rush after forgetting to wash lets say a baseball uniform. The LG app makes this washer even more amazing. The alerts when finished maintenance tips and remote control access are great. It also shows how much you save based on us usage to help fully see how energy efficient it is. Definitely recommend.

Ugly and Easy

LSUMBA 9/25/2023

This model appears utilitarian but it is the easiest washer/dryer set Ive ever used. Put the wash in touch AI. Take the wash out and put it in the Dryer touch AI and take it out. Quiet as a church mouse

Could not be happier

DoctorM 9/2/2023

This thing is amazing it cleans very well looks great and is really quiet. I didnt really want to get a new washer but we renovated our laundry room and wanted a stackable set. This one looked the best and had the best reviews in my opinion. It cleans well and has so many options. Our clothes seem cleaner than with our last only three years old washing machine. It takes up less room and looks great.

Cool washer - Wi-Fi setup process not so much

peter1knott 8/31/2023

Disappointed

TarHeelVirgo 8/26/2023

This washer may be fine for someone else but it does not deliver what I wanted. 1.When I choose hot water I want the water supply to come exclusively from the hot water line. Instead I get a mix of hot and cold water leaving me with warm water. I need true hot water for some loads for use with Oxiclean bleach for instance. 2. The tub is too deep for convenient unloading. I have to stand on tip-toe and stretch hard to reach items at the bottom of the tub. I had a 2.5 front loader before and was happy with it but I wanted something a little bigger when it came time for a new washer. I wish I could have found a washer with around 3.5 cu ft capacity. At 4.1 cu ft capacity this washer is larger than I need. It crowds the available laundry space and requires a strong stretch to unload it. 3. The extra water option is not designed to work with the normal cycle which is generally when I would want to use that option.

WM5500HVA LG Washer

Airborne Cav 8/6/2023

I have had these units for a few months now. I am a first time front load washer owner and I love it. Granted my last laundry set was from 1996. I like that it has the laundry soap dispenser at the top the drum is lit and its quiet. Its a bonus that I have it connect to my wifi and I can see the state of the wash and when it will be finished and use alexa to tell me when its done washing. It has more features than I will use but I plan on exploring them soon. These would include the AI wash cycle. I would recommend this unit. Also its lower than I thought so purchasing a pedestal might be in my future also.

Love this machine. Best yet

Recmar08LGWasher 7/14/2023

Purchased a month ago and already noticed a savings on my water bill. Easy to use very intuitive and excellent features. Using the LG Thin Q app I know when the cycle is done and dont need to physically check the status. Uses the right amount of water for the load and the cycle completes quickly. Clothes come out clean and fresh. I could not be happier. Had a competitors brand prior and it kept going off balance. I had to continually restart the machine at spin cycle and it would fill with water all over again. No problems with the LG front load washer. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants a reliable machine with great features.

Smelly washing machine horrible customer service

Lisa R Edgerton 6/26/2023

I purchased a top of the line washing machine and it smells horrible cant get the smell out. I called lG and wait on the phone forever and constantly and transferred then hung up on of course overseas people that barely speak English and dont want to help. What good if clean looking clothes that stank. Delivery guys cursed like sailors during the delivery and said sign please. I asked can I check it out first. I really want to return this washing machine. I regret daily that I bought it. After about 20 washes it still stinks and I have to go to the laundromat. I cleaned disinfected in on the clean tub mode nothing works still funky
