+ The fridge itself is great and comes with loads of space for food and saucepans if you want to store any leftovers.
very clever use of storage containers that come with the fridge itself.
We have also been drinking lots of water as it's filtered and cold. No more excuses!
I absolutely love it.

- None for now

+ Love the ice dispenser, cubes, crushed ice and ice cold water at the touch of a button. Freezer seems to be remarkably frost free. Load of capacity, love the drawers with the humidity sliders. Veg and meat seem to keep fresh forever in the fridge.

- What a size of a beast, they had to take the doors off to get it in the house. I looked at the width and height and never even thought about the depth. It sticks out past the cupboards, saying that, it's a great fridge freezer.

+ Extremely spacious, could easily identify this fridge/freezer as a Tardis... A lot more space inside than you would expect looking at the outside...

- Child Lock, does not lock the water dispenser and I have a lovely 3 year old whom loves the press her hand into the mechanism to dispense water or ice without the aid of a cup....
The Soft Bar, could have been a little taller for bigger bottles, not a major problem, as this is a fantastic facility....

+ we reallylike the dispenser facility although we have compromised a little on space. we did use our other fridge/freezer as well over xmas but for "normal" times of the year we found the freezer compartment adequate and the fridge part more than adequate

- not so keen on the led read out as there is no figure given, just an indicator line but it does the job. a little dissapointed about the quality of the finish on the sides of the product as dont match the better quality of the fascia but would not matter if it was fitted into an alcove though

+ Looks good, holds lots, love the door opening to get milk and OJ out quickly!

- The shelves on their own are deceptively small....so you have to split things out over a lot of shelves. But that's OK and you get used to it!

+ The access in the refrigerator door to bottles etc. Its quiet running. The design of the ice storage.

- The ambiguity of some of the operating manual. The display indicating the set temperature would be infinitely better if it was a digital display. It would be perfect if it could also show the actual temperature.

+ The capacity of the fride is very good and holds all that we need. I like the access door that allows you to get t he milk out without having to open the whole fridge.

- I would say that the freezer draws are very small and tricky to get things in and out.

+ Plumbed in ice maker and cold water is invaluable.
Drop down hatch convenient.
Excellent price
Light in both fridge & freezer ( why do fridges always have lights but not freezers?? )
Easy to move (on wheels)

- Very Large cabinet. Had to remove doors off fridge & freezer to get it into house.
Freezer still fairly restricted for size internally particularly due to the workings of ice maker.
Of course this is the same for all makes and models of this type rather than just the LG. Would be better if somebody made a 50\50 sized fridge and freezer rather than the 1\3 - 2\3 ratio that all manufactureres seem to go for.

+ very large capacity fridge and freezer and very efficient ice maker water dispenser. plumbed in and set up myself although basic plumbing skills or a bit of confidence are required. does exactly what a fridge should so cannot comment any more than that. love the home bar though.

- this fridge makes ice all day. if your bedroom is near the kitchen or you have an open plan apartment you will hear it

+ I love the product! Everything is on display and easy to get at. The fridge compartment at the bottom is suburb for keeping meat and cold meats in.

- We had to take the fridge doors off to get it where we wanted but the directions in the manual were easy to follow, and within half an hour of being delivered the fridge/freezer was in situ.
I sometimes forget to press the ice button to water in the dispenser so get a cup of ice when I want water. It's usually because the kids have been using it.

+ great design you only have to open a small door to get drinks or milk. so all the cold air stays inside. the cold water and ice is also a great asset, and being on the door gives you that much needed room in the freezer.

- none really would of liked more freezer space.

+ Very quiet and nice and roomy, I love the alarm that warns you if the door(s) are left open.
Nice amount of space for drinks in the home bar section, there's also a switch in the bottom section of the fridge when you put either vegetable or Meat in the bottom drawer you can switch it to veg or meat, to keep it at the right cooling level. The light is very nice and bright in both fridge and freezer sections.

- Home bar door can be a bit 'sticky' to open.
freezer section could of been a bit wider to fit a large pizza for example

+ The unit is pleasing in appearance and efficient in operation. It is wonderfully quiet, unlike my partner.

- The seal around the freezer door is not well secured and invariably needs adjusting in order for the door to close. Meat kept in the meat compartment of the fridge can become slighly frozen, but a minute under a cold tap, before usage, soons rectifies the problem
