The main thing in this LG Fridge is a small additional door. We use it all the time, if you need to get a souse or a drink you don't need to open the big doors all the time. Ice maker is cool, it has three options: cold water, crushed ice or ice cubes. It has larger freezer than some other models. I had three different fridges in my life. I can say for now this is the best one I ever had.

I have purchased this 5 Door LG Refrigerator and damaged by the Conversion of French Door refrigerator to 4/5 door side by side refrigerator.
Positive.
1. Side by Side doors are very useful to save your back from bending
2. The 5th door is quite use full, to access the useful staff for regular use
3. Slim Build with easy access to any side by side designed cavity
4. Very Easy to connect the water pipes as Polymer based instead of Copper
5. Ample space in the Freezer compartments
Negative.

There's nothing better than a stylish fridge. Except a stylish fridge that is also spacious, and that's the LG French Door in spades. We ALWAYS get comments about this fridge, and the finish is not so much black at all but a very dark glossy grey. It does everything you expect from a fridge with miles of space abounds, but we more bought it for the look. Haven't had an issue (thankfully) as LG service leaves a lot to be desired I've come to hear.

Got issues with temperature control of the fridge a year after the purchase! Called LG, after asking all sorts of details over and over again, the repairer came after a month!! By the time they ordered the presumed faulty parts and replace them it was two months!! A week after " repair" the problem reappeared! Talked to LG manager who was extremely rude! Asking if it'd be better to replace the fridge instead as it's cost us a lot of money and apparently it,s got a major problem. Bad tempered manager didn't accept and resend the repairer who sen...
Read moret an email back to LG saying that the whole door is faulty. Didn't get a response back from LG for a week although I kept chasing the matter up! The repairer will come to our place later today to hopefully fix the fridge ! And honestly I am still not sure if it gets fixed properly or not! What I'm sure though is that I will never ever buy LG products again!- Date Purchased

I like it very much apart from the fact that it's face is not magnetic and unable to stick magnets. It's a huge downside to this fridge. On the other hand very spacious and easy to keep organised. Freezer has lots of space too. Door in door feature is also handy for easy access. I can recommend this fridge.

My wife picked this fridge and I was a little bit hesitant at first however I am now converted. How convenient is it yo have cold water and ice on tap, its such a luxury and I dont think I can go back to manually filling it up.
This fridge is good on the power bill and is quite the eye drawer of the kitchen

Just love this fridge!
Easy to use, great upright positioning.
My kids even know how to access the small drinks door without losing all of the cool air.
This fridge makes life so much easier for our buddy family with several ice options, easy opening door and smooth gliding trays and drawers both in fridge and freezer.
Couldn’t do without this fridge!

Temps are good so far and was pretty easy to setup. Has a bit of a high pitched noise when the compressor runs compared to old Westinghouse. Apparently this is because it has a linear compressor. Only been a few days so might get less noisy as it breaks in.

Love the plumed ice and water, i always struggled refilling the water and ice and would always end up with none and now I dont give it a second thought!! The crushed ice is by far my favourite feature, such luxury.
The fridge is so easy to clean, you can see everything in the frigde easily with the way the shelving is. Its quiet to run and its very pleasing to the eye with the modern design. Im inlove with this fridge

We replaced a thirteen year old 519L Fisher & Paykel refrigerator with this LG GF-5L712PL refrigerator. My wife wanted a refrigerator that dispensed cold filtered water and ice. She particularly liked the slim line ice maker in this LG refrigerator compared to the competition.
This LG refrigerator runs quietly and has plenty of shelf space which is adjustable for height in the fridge. The LED lighting is bright in both the freezer and fridge.
LG recommends allowing the refrigerator to run for three to four hours before stocking with groc...
Read moreeries. It is early days yet to determine temperature stability in the compartments. Warranty is two years parts and labour the sealed system a further three years (parts only) and linear compressor a further five years (parts only). The refrigerator does require plumbing in to a water supply. Installation is straight forward however if your water supply has a mini valve you will need to purchase a 20mm male to 15mm female reducing bush as the the refrigerator is supplied with a 20mm tap connector.- Date Purchased

The fridge is realy well lit, this fridge has the best internal lighting I have ever seen.
The fridge delivers great chopped ice and water.
I think the water container delivering cold water may be a little small as we can run out of cold water sometimes
The fridge was very easy to connect and plug into the mains water

This fridge is ideal for a large family (4+). Internal space is big and plenty of light. You can see all the product stock in the fridge. Please note that installing water connection is needed for this type fridge. No need for a water-cooler.
Overall 10 out of 10. Product price is a bit higher but worth having it.

Really pleased with this product although it does dent really easily so be careful! Haven't found a way to get a couple of small dents out yet but hopefully I can sort that out. Good amount of space inside to hold a variety of different sized containers. Ice and cold water is always on hand which is fantastic!

Overall functioning - pretty good. As expected.
Color - stainless. Goes well with our kitchen.

A very high quality fridge function wise and I cannot be happier with its function and its capacity.
The only downside is the stainless steel. It is extremely hard to get rid of the marks on it. The only thing that works is stainless steel cleaner. Nothing else works for it.

We purchased it as it is the perfect size for our fridge space, loved the color and the style. Depth is just right, not too deep like others where you cannot see what is at the back of thr fridge, lots of compartments and it has drawer that can be used for wine and drinks so it is kept tidy. Easy to clean looks very stylish

The fridge lasted 6 weeks before it leaked water over our timber floors damaging them, repaired and dame thing two weeks later. LG technician stated he couldn't repair it...but LG sent him back anyway to try...still waiting for some direct contact from LG on repairing our floors...their recommendation was pay the excess and claim it on your insurance...perhaps LG should learn Australian consumer law...will never buy LG again...technician advises there is no fix and he has encountered a few fridges with the same issue...recall time LG???

This is our first LG fridge and we totally love it and also enjoy it too. Not just the setting inside is very good, but also the energy rate is very good as well. The space in the frizzr is big enough for us to put two weeks food in there! So we hope you will enjoy it
