Product review (1 stars): DO NOT BUY LG APPLIANCE BEFORE READING REVIEWS
LG French Door Refrigerator is 1.5 years old and cooling system is intermittent, lost entire content of unit.  The ice in the ice machine melted while I was away and ruined my hardwood floor ($450 repair for floor). The local authorized service techs said they have had others LG refrigerators have the same problem.  Called LG and was able to schedule a technician to come out after 4 tries. I canceled before he came out because it was working again but since it was prior to the 24hr period they would not refund me.  The tech said it would be hard to figure out what is wrong if it working.  He suggested that he not come out and wait until or if it has problems again.  He said he thinks it is the compressor which is $250 + 125 service call to fix but no guarantee that is the problem.  Thank God the parts were under warranty. For a $2000 refrigerator I would of expected it to last more than 1.5 year and have no problems. My old 25 year old GE fridge is still working and never been serviced.  LG customer service center is not terribly helpful; called a number of times, each time got a different story, they were only able to follow the script and there was no way to escalate to a supervisor - very frustrating. I usually look at the reviews before I buy.  Did not this time but wish I had as I am not the only one to have this type of problem.  LG not only has problem with their phones catching on fire and the tops of the washing machine coming off but now it looks like there refrigerators are junk also.  Bottom line, will never buy an LG kitchen appliance again.
