The LG GC-B247SLUV is a huge refrigerator with a dimension of 912 x 1790 x 738 mm. It has a total net capacity of 626. The fridge compartment is 406L and the freezer compartment is 220L.
The main benefit of this LG side-by-side refrigerator is its large capacity as well as plenty of shelving space. It is ideal for large families and for people who frequently buy groceries in bulk.
There’s a LED touch panel at the top left corner of the fridge door which allows users to control the operating temperature of the refrigerator and change WiFi status.

5. LG GC-X247CSAV Instaview Knock Knock Fridge Review

Best deal on Lazada Best deal on Shopee
LG GC-X247CSAV is the best LG refrigerator with an automatic ice maker and dispenser. It also has a unique LG’s door-in-door design and Instaview windows.
LG GC-X247CSAV features :
Net capacity 601LDoor-in-door designExpress freezer and express cool featureWiFi-connectedDoor AlarmInstaviewIce/cold water dispenser (With crushed ice function)Child lockWine rackHygiene FRESH+ air filter and deodorizerTouch-sensitive LED control panel



The LG GC-X247CSAV is very similar to GC-B247SLUV except that it has an automatic ice maker and knock-knock Instaview feature.
I would only recommend buying the LG GC-X247CSAV if you think the automatic icemaker feature is important to you.
This is because the Instaview feature is not as hi-tech as the Samsung Family Hub. And the price of LG GC-X247CSAV is more than 50% more expensive than the LG GC-B247SLUV model.
The Instaview feature is just a mirrored glass panel that illuminates with two quick knocks. It is a cool feature but not really significant as you still have to be in front of the fridge to check what’s inside the door-in-door compartment.
This feature, however, is effective to reduce cold air loss up to 41% in comparison to opening the fridge door.
The other unique feature of this fridge is its Hygiene FRESH+ air filter. It can remove up to 99.99% bacteria and minimize bad odour in the fridge. 
This fridge comes with a convenient LED control panel that can be used to set the temperature, active WiFi, Express freeze, child lock, and Hygiene Fresh.
The LG GC-X247CSAV can be controlled with the LG Smart ThinQ app. Users can control and diagnose their refrigerators at their fingertips with just a smartphone.

Alternatives to LG Refrigerators
LG vs Samsung fridge
In terms of price, cooling performance, and storage space efficiency, LG and Samsung fridges are very similar. For higher-end models, Samsung refrigerators give better value for money as it packs with more advanced features and sleeker design.
LG vs Hisense fridge
The main difference between LG and Hisense fridges is the price and appearance. The Hisense fridge is definitely cheaper than an LG fridge of equivalent specifications. Hisense fridges are normally more conservative in design.
However, Hisense inverter fridges have a really long motor warranty of 12 years, while LG only covers 10 years for its inverter motor.
LG vs Panasonic fridge
Panasonic home appliances are popular among Malaysians. Panasonic fridges are typically slightly cheaper than LG’s.
Panasonic’s budget and mid-range refrigerators are excellent. But their high-end models aren’t very innovative.
Panasonic has a 6-door refrigerator model that is perfect for people who are extremely organized. Whereas, LG has 4 doors, a door-in-door design.
Panasonic fridges provide a 12-year motor warranty, which is longer than LG’s 10-year compressor warranty.
LG vs Electrolux fridge
The main difference between LG and Electrolux fridges is their design and fridge type. Electrolux has some of the best designs for french door refrigerators.
In terms of price, Electrolux and LG fridges are quite similar.
However, Electrolux has only a one-year general warranty and a 10 years motor warranty.
