I did up a big spreadsheet and read all the reviews I could before committing to this purchase. There are tons of negative reviews on the LG products so I was hesitant to pull the trigger. However, we loved the look of the stainless exterior and the ice maker/water dispenser design on the exterior wasn't available on other models. We made our purchase at a local retailer and I mentioned all of the poor reviews. The sales rep was a friend (of a friend) and he assured me they wouldn't sell LG if they had more problems than the other brands so we took a leap of faith.

So, we have had the unit now for over a year. Zero issues and we love it as much as the day we installed it. The stainless exterior still looks perfect (I use WD-40 on it for a great shine!) The interior design is very flexible, all the levels can be adjusted to fit. The doors hold open for loading at 90 degrees but close on their own at less than that. The compressor is nearly silent. It's not perfect, the ice maker occasionally gets frozen up, but we just pull the ice bin and shake it or remove the clump and it's good as new. Both doors must be opened to access the one larger drawer, a better design would have been to split it.

The counter depth size is great and makes it look built in. However, the interior is pretty small and it can be tough to get everything loaded. As I write this it's right after Thanksgiving and it was a battle to fit all the leftovers in it along with milk, juices and a case of beer. But it swallowed it all up. We have a small family and we barely make it work.
