[LG Dryer] [Wash Tower] Opening and closing the dryer door feels different compared to the washing machine door

Troubleshooting

The difference between the dryer and the washing machine's door gaskets creates a different feel when opening and closing the doors.
The designs and roles of the dryer and washing machine's door gaskets are different, so it's normal for the dryer door to be stiff compared to the washing machine.
It may feel different when opening and closing the doors due to the variation in height between the dryer and the washing machine door handles.
Also, depending on the structural features of the Wash Tower handle, a gap may be visible, but if it doesn't leak, it's normal.
Feel free to use it with confidence as it is not a defect.
