Efficient reliable fridge, not so user-friendly – It's a small fridge (200L) but very efficient - uses about as much power as most bar fridges. Sure, it does what its supposed to well, but some of the "human" features leave a lot to be desired: - cheap polycarb (plastic) shelves and racks. Pretty much normal now on cheaper models but you know they are going to break and the design of these almost guarantees cracking when you try to remove them. - difficult to access service items; clips and covers. Not great design and this could have been better without adding cost - REALLY annoying guage in the freezer which uses the words MAX and MIN; in a fridge/freezer context these words are totally ambiguous. Does MAX mean max power (colder) or max temperature (warmer). Anyone who designs fridges for a living should have taken the 3 seconds to consider this?.. which is why higher-end brands use the words "warmer" and "cooler" (LG is Chinese obvioulsy).

Product less than 5 years stopped working – Freezer workes but fridge stopped working, my daughter put it into storage for two years. Worked for a couple of months and now does not work at all. Had to bin a lot of food. Spoke to LG online on the 13/05/17 and still have not had a response No it's not loud Easy to clean

Another quality Lg product – A good little fridge that works as intended but does have its cons like being a little bit noisy when running unlike my 15 year old fridge which still runs quiet. I do find the freezer a bit on the small side but the ice container can be removed to make a bit more room. Despite its cons it is a good little fridge although a little over priced for its size. Nice looking, fridge part suitable for 2 people, good warranty period. Freezer could be a little bigger for the price, it's a little bit noisy & needs a couple more shelf positions in the fridge door.

It makes things cool – We have had this fridge for 1 year, it has worked well and keeps the food fresh (the ioniser keeps everything smelling good). It is a good size for 1-2 people. We had ours in a studio apartment and it was a bit noisy at night, we now live in a house and we never notice it turning on now. Cheap, good build

Great little fridge – I purchased from AppliancesOnline, so they installed it for me. My floor was slightly uneven but they adjusted the legs until it wasn't wobbly anymore. The fridge is nice and quiet, you can hear it turn on when you're next to it but it's not something you can hear in the next room. The default temps were a bit cold for me at first, but it's easy to adjust them.

The ice maker can be removed and makes cute little cubes that pop out easily.

It's a good size for 1-2 people. Cheap, quiet. Freezer is a bit small, but I'm used to a large chest freezer so for most it would be fine.
