Our last LG refrigerator started to have some issues last month. We couldn't decide if we should try and fix it or buy a new one. Our last LG refrigerator was 10 years old and we had very little issues with it. ( just with ice maker freezing up) I have learned that most ice makers in refrigerators have same issues. I went to 5 different stores that carry a variety of refrigerators and also looked up on consumer report. LG is one of the highest rated. And with how much I loved my last one decided to update to the one with the drawer and craft ice. So far I am loving everything about it. I love the extra space, the capability of the drawer being able to be used for refrigerator  or freezer. I would definitely buy this refrigerator again.
