What's great about it: Looks good
What's not so great: Ice maker, size
"Now I know why other brands don't make a french door model in thes small size.
Unless style is your only concern, do yourself a favor and go with a different model. I went with this one (even though I read the bad reviews on the ice maker) because we wanted a french door and have a small space for a refrigerator.
First of all, it's so narrow, you have to open both doors every time anyway. The ice maker is an absolute joke! Oh, it make ice alright. Unfortunately it doesn't know when to stop. Then when you pull the tray forward to get some ice, the sensor knocks a bunch of cube either down in the abyss of the freezer, or onto the floor. EVERY TIME!!!
If you're limited on space, just get a nice stainless bottom freezer. Don't worry about the french door for this size. It's strictly for looks."

What's great about it: graet price for value
What's not so great: Storage for big containers was hard at first but we figured it out
"this is a great product if you want the new style with freezer on the bottom this is the best price for the product only 34 dollers to operate a year!!!!"

What's great about it: Stainless Steel is beautiful, excellent temp control, great design.
What's not so great: Can be a pain to level out and get doors even, heard there are issues with ice maker.
"This unit looks amazing and has tons of space despite its small size. I am shocked at how much this fridge holds. The best part is the bins on the door. They hold tons of food. The freezer is also spacious and works very well without over freezing. We are mega happy with our purchase and really think its a great unit. We chose to not have the ice maker hooked up mainly because we have always used bottled water for ice cubes. If space is a concern and you still want a luxury fridge then this is the way to go. We had a small problem leveling out the fridge but its fine now. Also if its not level the doors will slightly be uneven. Takes a little time to get it to be perfect. Overall its an amazing unit."

Will never buy LG ever again

What's great about it: refrigerator works
What's not so great: fan failed, ice machine failed, plastic parts come off
"I bought the same model as Jeff from NY at about the same time. I did not buy the extended warranty for the same reasons. The ice machine worked just fine during warranty, but the "ice bucket full" censor never worked. The ice machine had to be turned off when the collection bucket became full. Two months out of warranty, the fan for the motor needed replaced. Just recently ice machine started to make smaller ice cubes and less frequently. Now ice has completely stopped. I will never buy LG applicances ever again and am advising anyone who will listen to avoid their products also."

What's great about it: looks beautiful & works great
What's not so great: freezer drawer is small
"I love this fridge. I was in a similar situation as other reviewers, I had a space issue. This fridge fit the existing space perfectly. It looks beautiful, all the shelves move and come out for easy clean up. The side of the fridge is gray. I wasn't sure how I would feel about it but now that it's in, I prefer it to the black sides on my old stainless. The gray seems to blend in better."

Good looks but poor design

What's great about it: Great looks and spacious refrigerator area
What's not so great: poor design of ice maker in lower freezer unit
"I purchase the LG Bottom Freezer Regrigerator stainless unit model #: LFC25760ST July 1, 2006 along with an LG Range & dishwasher as part of a kitchen remodel. Chose this model for it's nice looks and apparent functionality. Unfortunately, I did not purchase the extended warrenty on the new appliances, since I had not had any problems with the previous GE appliances I had in service for 10 years. About 14 months after purchase the ice maker broke and was not cover under the factory warrenty. A few hundred $ later the ice maker worked for a month and now I have been told the entire ice maker unit must be replaced and LG won't assist with any of this.
Bottom line, it is an attractive unit, the frig portion works great and is very spacious. However, the bottom freezer unit almost always catches on ice dumping cubes onto the floor. A design flaw that is not only annoying, but will cost you in time & cost for repairs. Would consider this product without an extended warrently."

i love it!

What's great about it: fits the space i have and is still large and stylish
What's not so great: doors have to be pushed closed
"This refridgerator became a part of our family after our very old 2 door model stopped getting cold...in a hurry i went out to buy it...sadly i had to wait about 3 weeks for it to be delivered because my local Best Buy doesn't stock it, but it was truly worth the wait.
The things I like best are:
-The chime when the door is left open...because the french doors don't take up a lot of space when they are left open, the kids often don't shut it all the way when they are getting food out. The reminder beep works wonders!
-The 6 large bins on the door...are very easy to clean, they come right out and you can wash them and they adjust to lots of different positions to fit lots of different height items.
-The split adjustable shelves...truly I haven't adjusted mine...they work where i 1st installed them...but i like the idea that if i have something large i only need to adjust one side of the shelf.
-The freezer drawer, i thought i would hate it...but i love that it is very well lit and that it holds a large amount of food...not only does it have the 2 bins at the bottom but also a slide out drawer where i store meat and smaller items so that they don't get lost in the bins.
-The icemaker-does make a lot of ice...so no need to keep it on all the time...once we have enough ice, i just turn it off. I love that you can choose the size of the cubes and it came with a very large ice bucket.
-The slide out/dairy/lunchmeat drawer and the vegetable/fruit drawers- the cheese drawer is large enough to hold about 10 different types of cheese and the cheese stays fresh for a long time...my veggies especially lettuce, stays fresh at least a week longer than it did in the last fridge.
-Everything inside is easy to clean! The outside isn't too bad to get clean...wipes seem to work well to get rid of the kids fingerprints without too much hassle (i haven't had to buy any special cleaner!)
-Everyone that visits loves the design...very pretty
What I don't love:
-The side of the fridge is gray not black, so it doesn't match the stove that I also brought from the same line...not the end of the world (and in lots of homes you can't see the side)...but i wish it was black...
-The hinges at the top are not concealed like in the larger models of the same fridge...
-The doors don't shut all the way without a gentle final push...(most fridges have doors that are heavy enough that they will close all the way on their own, these will not...not even if you slam them they stop just short of closing then you have to push them shut)"

Wonderful refrigerator

What's great about it: Bottom drawer freezer and smaller size
What's not so great: Nothing I have noticed
"This is a great refrigerator. I have a really small kitchen and needed a small but nice refrigerator to give me a lot of counterspace. This was the smallest fridge we could find - no other brand made one this size and it still holds A LOT of food. I also love that is has a quiet beep that lets you know if you left one of the doors open. Love this fridge!"

VERY HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASE

"I love this LG refrigerator.
I have limited space, this refrigerator has plenty of interior space while maintaining a small footprint.
The French door design is very functional and provides an elegant and balanced appearance.
I have a lot more space now then I had with my old refrigerator
I purchased this refrigerator through Best Buy, the delivery was on time and personnel were professional. The delivery window was 1.5 hours, not the common 8 hour window required by most major appliance retailers."

i hate this refrigerator!

What's great about it: it fits in the space i have available
What's not so great: see review...
"I've hated this refrigerator since about an hour after it was installed. It's too narrow (my fault--I shouldn't have purchased one with French doors.) I don't like having a freezer DRAWER--it's very difficult to get to the stuff on the bottom (again--my fault). The ice maker shelf broke about 3 mos after installation (and was repaired under warranty but I'm sure it'll break again.) The ice maker makes so much ice it overflows and when we open the freezer drawer, it gets pushed onto the freezer bottom. Cleaning that out is interesting! I use a dust pan to 'shovel out' the old ice. If you don't clean it out, the drawer eventually won't close.
The light in the refrigerator section is so large, it's difficult to put anything on the top shelf. And because it has sharp edges, I cut myself every time. I thought the French doors would be more energy efficient but to get anything in or out you have to open both doors anyway.
I'm hoping it breaks down soon! (or maybe I'll just move my 20 year old Amana back into the house and put THIS one in the garage!)"
