[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When researching fridges, I read over and over that this fridge’s compressor would go out after 3 years. I went ahead and purchased it because it had the 5 year warranty on the compressor. Sure enough, at the 3 years, 5 months mark it stopped cooling and repair guy confirmed it was the compressor. LG had a technician out in about 5 days (which seems like forever without a working fridge). The guy was here for two hours and replaced three major components. It didn’t cost us anything. It’s working great now. So, my takeaway is that the customer service is great…they stand my their warranty and it’s pretty hassle free. I love all of the features of the fridge. It’s nice and roomy for our family of 7. Just be prepared for it to stop working after three years, knowing they’ll take care of it. I just hope it doesn’t stop working again after another three years when the warranty is up! Three grand is a little too much to drop for an appliance that only works for three year spurts if so!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fridge started out great, but it had too many issues with breaking down and me having to get it fixed and ultimately I just ended up having to buy a new fridge.
Pros: Style/Design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everything is working as expected everything seems to be working very well - owned the unit since 2014 that makes it 8 and a few months old - the compressor was just replaced under 10 year warranty - so far so goog
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my LG refrigerator, it’s beautiful but more than that it’s roomy and well made. It has great functionality too. I chose it because of the second refrigerator drawer being accessible for my young grandson. I wanted him to be able to easily grab his snacks and etc. It stays cool and it’s just a gorgeous appliance. I am very pleased with my LG product.
Pros: ease of use, Quality, Style/Design, Performance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this fridge three years ago. It was my dream fridge, and my kids and I absolutely loved all of its features. However, it quit working and there was no one to repair it, so LG gave me a pro-rated refund to purchase a new fridge. I just can't find one I like as much, so I'm really sad to lose this one.
Pros: ease of use, Style/Design, Features/Settings
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought it March 2018 and it died October 2021. It got repaired, but after each repair something else would break same day the prior problem was fixed.
