DO NOT BUY LG. Poor after sales support – Bought this refrigerator in Nov'19 Worked fine until Dec'24 ie. just after 5 years and warranty expired. Even in Max setting, the water in the ice tray remained liquid and was not freezing. The food in refrigerator compartment was not cooling enough and going off very quickly. Called LG and was given the run-around. They do not have local support.… Read more

They outsource their technical resource to small external companies. Finally got a tech to come and assess (AUD180). He said that refrigerator was not repairable. However, he said he can try re-gas and there is a chance that re-gassing may fix the issue (AUD170 additional). Seeing that tech was already there, we tried that. $350 later still no fix to the issue. Called LG support again as they did not follow up. They said that the technicians report did not state that refrigerator is unrepairable. LG support can't communicate with their own techs and have asked me to contact their tech to ammend the report to pursue this matter. Painful experience and still ongoing.

Do not buy, waste of money – Do not buy this fridge. The freezer is over freezing and causing frost inside the food packages and spoiling all my food. I did have technician come out and investigate only to tell me its normal for this freezer, however in my opinion it is faulty as frost should not form inside the packages within a week. Show details

Do Not Buy from LG – Bought this fridge for our AIRBNB holiday rental. Died 2 years and 3 months after purchase and unfortunately whilst we had a guests on site. Had to do an emergency new fridge delivered, reimburse guest for loss of all food and call our own technician for $110 who diagnosed the PC/Electrical Board was dead and even a replacement would only last a… Read more

short life span. LG only offer online chat support. Have had Westinghouse and Fisher Paykel in our main residence for over 15 years with no issues. Fridge should not have died after the small 2 years of use and only 3 months out of warranty. Never again LG!!!

So far so good, actual size is 478L not 512L – Just replaced my old Kelvi fridge, and I found this fridge is great for my use, so far no issues except, door opening warning noise which some time is very annoying, other It is not so sturdy like my old kelvi, specially its shelves, so not try to put too much stuff on these delicate shelves. Pro is that its 4 star energy rating with 10 years… Read more ·  1

motor life, gives you a peace of mind. Cooling is very good plus the charming body color. this is my 4th LG home appliance and I found their products are very reliable. Just be mindful the actual size is 478L not 512L as advertised, this is what you will have actually space inside the fridge, I have to squeeze my stuff and its not roomy like my old 536L Kelvi, I missed you. I bought this fridge on 15% special promo from Good guys.

Good fridge great size freezer – Great fridge especially love the size of the freezer which can fit in way more than my previous one. It is good that the ice cube tray slides and that you can fit flat things under it. Fridge section is good and I can fit 1.25 bottles in the lower shelf. Only down side is the vegetable crisper draw is slim so not a huge amount fits in it. Also… Read more ·  1

you have to open the door of the fridge to fully open it. This does not bother me as the rest of the fridge is great.
