This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of LG Electronics. All opinions, photos, and text are my own! As you know, I was beyond excited to makeover our laundry room and get my new LG SideKick™ set up to supplement my laundry routine. I’ve had a few weeks to put it to use now and today, I am SO thrilled to not only share my experience, but also GIVE AWAY AN LG SIDEKICK PEDESTAL WASHER to one of you!!
The arrival of the LG SideKick really couldn’t have come at a better time. In addition to the hustle and bustle of soccer practices and gymnastics, homework, and marathon training, we decided to add a new puppy, Lily, into the crazy mix. She’s a doll, but it’s been a long time since we’ve had a puppy and they are a handful! Adding her to the household has definitely upped the ante in the laundry room! Haha!
The LG SideKick pedestal washer has been a lifesaver just in these few short weeks that I’ve been using it.
The kids are able to wash their own soccer clothes or a last minute outfit for the next day. We use the special “Active Wear” wash cycle to keep up with my husband’s expensive running clothes.
Fitting in a swimsuit load between my regular laundry is no longer a problem. I also like to separate out my delicates and hand wash items and run them through the LG SideKick so that I don’t waste water and energy washing just a few specialty items in the larger washer, and also so that I don’t forget which items need to be hung up or laid flat to dry. I put together a fun video to show how much we love our LG SideKick – this was a blast – and Lily even performed her part right on cue (or, on the rug, I should say) in the middle of our video – it doesn’t get more real life than that, friends!! Enjoy!
There are a few more details I want to share about the LG SideKick so that everyone understands just how versatile this machine is! The pedestal washer is connected to, but runs independently from, my front-load LG washer (works with LG front-load models from as far back as 2009. You can find a compatible model here.) This means I can wash a normal or bulky load in my regular machine while simultaneously washing activewear or intimates in my LG SideKick on completely different settings. There are six distinct settings that differ in wash motion, water temperature, rinse cycle, and spin speeds including: normal, intimates, hand wash, and active wear. I know I’ve only had this bonus washer for a short time, but I don’t feel like I could do without it now that I know what it is capable of doing!

This would be awesome for washing delicate garments or my husband’s running clothes right after he wears them.

I’d love to have the sidekick for our girls’ cheerleading uniforms, gymnastics leotards, and the outfits they just HAVE to wear again the next day! And for the delicate items that my hubby seems to be afraid to wash!
