I owned an LG counter depth in my previous home. The existing refrigerator in my new home needed replacement. I again needed counter depth and saw LG now offers a counter depth with full capacity. The counter max was a great choice for me. I'm pleased with the increased capacity. The model I purchased happens to offer 4 types of ice; crushed, cubed, craft, and mini cube. While I purchased the model for the capacity, I'm really enjoying the mini cube and craft ice. I'm very happy with my purchase. It's a clear upgrade from either of my previous units.
