Everything else on the fridge has been great.Love the LED lighting, the counter depth, the easily accessible water filter, the in door ice maker, and the bottom drawer freezer.The stainless is a pain to keep clean, but so was our last fridge.I had read reviews on other sites that had complaints about the ice maker jamming.This has happened once to ours in the first week and was a quick fix.I just took out the ice container and banged it on the counter to break up the ice.It hasn't happened again.The counter depth for us has been great.Our previous fridge had gaps on both sides and stuck out farther into the kitchen.This one still leaves a small gap on one side, but is 3 inches shallower while giving us an extra 4.5 cubic feet of storage.The 3 inches doesn't sound like much, but it made a world of difference in the look of our kitchen.
The only negative thing I can say about this refrigerator is the high price.I couldn't imagine spending that much money on any appliance, but the wife talked me into it.After using it for a few months, I figure since it's saving us at least $50 per month in food costs, it should pay for itself in a few years.If you're looking for a counter depth fridge that keeps food fresh longer and looks great in your kitchen, this is the way to go.
Purchased this refrigerator for size (counterdepth) and looks. Love how it looks, beautiful stainless steel but it has yet to be frost free!I've had a local repair man come out 7 times since 12/11 and each time he calls LG and is told to try something else. This last repair, the LG tech said "oh yeah, you need a defrost kit" (they didn't think of this before?). Each time I wait many weeks for the part to come in and each time there is no improvement. Ice cream boxes frost over immediately. Ice cream will last a few days before the frost is inside and needs to be thrown away. I call LG directly and speak to a manager who assures me that my repairman just needs to call and say it's unrepairable. He calls, is given something else to do and the dreaded cycle continues, a new part, no fix and I wait weeks in between (because parts have to be shipped from overseas???) FINALLY, I've complained long enough that a woman at the service center called to complain for me and LG has now agreed to replace this refrigerator. I paid $3200 for this fridge and I'm not even excited to get a new one. Wish I had chosen quality over size and looks!My 15 yo kitchen aid side by side is still doing a fantastic job, now in my garage!!Hope someone else fairs better. Just this week I had to purchase a fridge for another house and the LG fit perfectly, but just could not risk it again, I went Maytag!
