LG 25 CF French Door Refrigerator SS

We physically checked out several fridges in local stores and looked on-line including consumer reports. This was significantly larger than the fridge it replaced. We really like the freezer at the bottom w/ the divider (meats on one side, ice cream/dessert type stuff on the other). The slide out shelves are very cool; it's nice when you have a big jug of milk to pull out. There is also an abundance of drawer space.I was concerned purchasing a large appliance on-line but it went great. It took a little more than a week to arrive. Two guys came in a truck in the 4 hour timeframe given. They were in and out w/in 30 minutes. The fridge was in perfect condition - everything was taped into position. We saved $200-$300 by purchasing off Amazon as opposed to the local box store.We are very happy w/ the purchase.

We currently have a LG refrigerator and love it. we needed another for another house. Great refrig....great price......shipping experience- Horrible!

We were looking for a replacement of our ten year old refrigerator which was very noisy. After researching the most energy efficient replacements, the LG LFC25776 seemed to fit our requirements, as it was rated as Tier III Energy Star. It uses exactly half the kilowatt-hours as our previous ten year old refrigerator.Pros: The refrigerator and freezer sections are quite roomy. Aside from the high energy efficiency, the best aspect of the refrigerator section are the LED lights that are very bright, illuminating the interior. The compressor is very quiet. Compared to our last refrigerator, that banged and knocked loudly, the LG is extremely quiet. Also, the interior is a high quality with smoothly sliding bins and adjustable glass shelves. The large meat bin at the the bottom is the most useful one, even if it requires that both French doors be open to open it. The refrigerator doors have very thick foam insulation and that keeps door items cold. The temperature settings are displayed on the front of the refrigerator and the settings are accurate. There is a door alarm that goes off after about 30 seconds that is useful and necessary. The freezer section is large with two tub sections, with a nice pull out wire bin above the tubs and a smaller wire one on the door of the freezer that handles small boxes well.Cons: There are a few aspects of the refrigerator and freezer that come up short. The main one is the spacing design of the plastic shelves on the French doors. The door bins are advertised to hold several gallon jugs, which is accurate. However, if more than a couple of gallons are stored in that door, there is no room for tall items on the remaining door bins. Plan B would be to use the main compartment glass shelves, but these are spaced with about 7", 6" and 9", from bottom to top shelf. There is no room for an upright open wine bottle, for instance. Back to Plan A, we keep those in the door bins but with four gallons of milk or water in the bins, there is no room. There are two solutions: keep fewer gallon jugs on the door bins or remove one of the interior glass shelves. We opted for the former since we are not willing to lose that much interior storage space. A better design with more adjustability for the door bins would be a big improvement. The vegetable and fruit bins are not very large or deep. Most weeks, we end up storing half our vegetables on the lowest glass shelf. Another issue is the shape of the exterior handles that dig into our hands. This is not too bad, but a more ergonomic design would be helpful. The freezer section uses a normal incandescent bulb, which seems strange given the extreme energy efficiency in the rest of the unit. Finally, the French doors require a little effort to shut. They do not swing closed but require a firm push. If you forget that push, the door stays ajar and the alarm goes off after about 30 seconds. While the alarm is loud enough, if you leave the room before the alarm goes off, it could be a problem. I'd recommend that LG come up with a phone app (they do manufacture cell phones, so it should be easy) to notify the user if the door is ajar, or if the internal temperature of the refrigerator rises past some selected limit.Recommendation: Despite these issues, we recommend the refrigerator and look forward to saving on energy over the coming years.

I did a lot of research before purchasing. Key things you need to know.I bought a new house and we had to take the front door off it's hinges to get it in. (thank goodness I went with a great local company). It barely fit into the alcove for the fridge. (1/16" to spare... maybe.)We bought this because we loved the layout and the 414kwh is just awesome. You can never hear that it's on.After a lot of research the only flaw on this machine was the ice maker splatters/leaks. The installers or the default turned it on and it indeed splattered for us. We turned it off. I was expecting this issue and disappointed we had it, but I wasn't planning to us that anyway (although it might have been nice).The room is spacious and you can see everything. LOVE it.My wife is a 90lbs weakling and couldn't lift the gallon milk out of the door shelf. Something to keep in mind if that's important but you'd likely run into that with any Fridge where milk is placed at that height.I have no other complaints and I'm incredibly happy. The four stars is because of the water issue with the ice tray and if it was important to me it would probably be lower, but I knew what I was getting into going into it so it was a non-issue.Oh, the sides are grey and you can see the unit in person at home depot (at least we could). We purchased through a local furniture company called RC Willeys because the pricing was better and they offered full assembly with their delivery and $35 gave us a year of deliveries. Incredibly thankful considering what an issue getting the fridge in was. I didn't even think to measure the door because it was a new house even though I measured the alcove.If you want a plain jane fridge and this can fit, this is the fridge for you. If an ice maker is important then you should probably pass or be prepared to deal with the warranty people about it.

Purchased in January 2011. We like the style and layout of this refrigerator. Unfortunately, the ice maker went out after one month. LG is the only manufacturer that requires you to submit a a form to request in-home warranty service. You can't just call a local authorized service company yourself. Then, when they get around to it, LG contacts a service rep to come fix the problem. It's been five days and haven't heard from LG. I won't be purchasing any additional LG appliances.
