I used Consumer Reports list of recommended refrigerators.  I wanted an ice-in-door, bottom freezer, but the ratings were not good enough and, since ice is important and "slow ice" was a comment, I went back to basics.  So happy.  The usable space is better than my old side-by-side even though cubic feet were supposedly similar.  Though I'd prefer ice-in-door, I've again gained freezer space and have good ice production.  The shelves are easy to clean and appear to have better support than my previous refrigerator.  Vegetable and fruit drawers, spacious and keep items fresh.  Back to basics and I'm the winner.  Now, LG, just give me longevity.
