This fridge has been great

published

I'm surprised at the poor reviews for this fridge.
We've had ours about 2 years now and it's been great.
The best feature is the freezer draw which is spacious.
The french door cooler is so much roomier than a side by side.

Purchased in August 2021 at The Good Guys for $3,000.00.

Nice fridge with modest features

published

Had this fridge for just over a year now. Held up pretty well and has performed great. Plumbed water means we get fresh cold water and ice with also the option of it being crushed or in cubes. With the ability to also change temps for both fridge and freezer, and great LED lighting inside, I give it 5 stars.

Great features

published

This fridge has it lol even a smart phone app to tell you what's wrong with the fridge if you experience problems.
The downfall though is the design of the water container
I have had it repaired after 3 weeks due to constant dripping
Even after fixing the piece called the assembly it drips a little
I would have thought the design is an engineering fault.

LG warranty is a joke

published

Our fridge has faulty sliders for freezer door and freezer draw and insulated panel in back of freezer. We lost a freezer full of meat and frozen products due to this problem. Had LG service guy come out 2 months ago and still waiting for repairs. Called LG numerous times and keep getting lies.

LG blame service guys and service guys claim they are waiting for parts from LG. We were told this is a common fault in these fridges so you would assume they would have these parts readily available

I do not recommend LG refrigerators and would not purchase any of their products because of the hopeless after sales services.

Ok but wish we'd read reviews first

published

Like the storage and the freezer drawer. Lots of internal space and great for platters but.... The exterior is almost impossible to keep looking clean, even with cleaning oil or wipes. The condensation on the ice maker door means constantly wiping it in hot weather if you don't want a puddle on the floor, the water filter is very expensive for what it is and the ice grinder constantly jams. Yep, note to self....Read reviews before purchasing anything!

Worst Ever Fridge..Dont buy

published

We were excited about buying this fridge because it has been a long time since we had a new one.We have had it a year now but do not look forward to summer because,on a very humid day,we have condensation absolutely covering the front of this fridge,the filters are very expensive and its a nightmare to clean the outside.Cant wait to get rid of it...worst ever purchase!
The Look
Condensation on the outside is the biggest problem and hard to clean stainless steel.

Great fridge freezer

published

Had it a year now, yes the ice sometimes needs breaking up but nearby instructions makes it easy...plus it beeps to warn me that I've left the door open- with kids an essential! Very spacious freezer area too, pleased I didn't go for a side by side option. Lots of useful compartments in fridge.

Total mistake buying this fridge.

published

Just bought this fridge on Saturday, it's now Monday and it's broken already. An error message appeared and after contacting LG, I was told that because the 7 day cooling off period has not expired, I could either get a replacement fridge or have it serviced. Never mind all the food thats gone off already or the total inconvenience of the whole thing. I didn't dare ask what would happen if the fridge actually broke down on the 8th day after purchase. Totally has put me off dealing with LG and their products. The place I bought it from has thankfully agreed to let me chose another fridge instead of a replacement. Just be weary before you buy.

Broke down 2 days after purchase! ice maker wouldn't work either.

Do not buy this fridge!

published

We bought this fridge in May and since then the ice-maker and water dispenser have not been functioning properly. We have had the fridge repaired four times already and the guy is coming back again today. Since he repaired it yesterday it is now leaking on the wooden floor! We wish we had never bought it!
the "look"
It doesn't work!

Dont buy it

published

Whilst this is a nice looking fridge full of functions i wouldn't recommend buying one. After much fighting with LG, i am onto my second version of the same fridge, and have had 3 repairs, all within 5 months. The freezer seems to be poorly designed and it constantly freezes up, forming ice on the bottom of the basket. This means whenever you open the freezer you have ice dropping at your feet and constant water on the floor. LG seem to be in denial about the problem, but seeing as i have now had 2 fridges with the same problem, it was obviously not just one faulty fridge - its a design flaw.
Adjustable shelves.
Freezer ices up all the time.

Seems to me they spend more on advertising than anything else. Thank for these comments everyone - we've been tossing up between the Bosch KFN91PJ10A an this one... Choice is clear now.

Apart from the ice sometimes jamming (this is easily fixed by shaking the bucket) we haven't had any major dramas at all.

Love the design and space

published

love the in door ice dispenser which means there is no ice making box inside the fridge, saving a lot of space. the in door ice maker surprisingly hold a large amount of ice. the shelves are all easily moveable as per height required. overall a very good fridge design.
Also comes with a 10 year linear compressor warranty, which adds to the peace of mind.
ice dispenser in the door, saving valuable space inside. shelves easily adjustable.

I would place an immediate service call. It's under warranty.
