Help Me Choose A Refrigerator
Comments (9)I would go with a Fisher Paykle. I absolutely love their fridges. They are resonably priced and look so good. After a year of headaches, a friend of mine ripped out her LG and replaced with with a FP. She raves about how much nicer it is. They have a french door bottom freezer model with ice and water. Mine is single door, bottom freezer with ice/water....See MoreNeed help choosing refrigerator for new build
Comments (5)I have vouched for Liebherr before for a couple reasons, design and build quality are fantastic and energy efficiency is one of the best on the market. These are also all true counter depth refrigerators. If you're looking at going green and wanting a high end fridge go with Liebherr. For sizeing and space inside you can also look at a side by side unit, if you have the space for 48" or 60". Looking at a built-in or fully integrated refrigerator will never give the space a freestanding unit can give in equivalent sizes. You can also mix and match your side by sides to max out your options, ice maker/ full fridge/ fridge freezer, allowing you to decide how much or how little refrigerator or freezer you want in your kitchen. Warranty wise subzero and Liebherr have the best on the market, up to 12 year sealed system warranty. Do a little research into failure rate, i know Liebherr has a less than 2%, not sure what Subzero is. But if your budget allows for it, definitely go for one of those two....See MoreNeed help choosing a refrigerator
Comments (5)I have an LG bottom freezer in my utility room and one of the things I was so excited about was having the ice maker in it (last fridge had an icemaker that died long before it went into the utility room, so we never put in a connection). We have 2 teen boys and they are both in marching band. In addition to regular ice for drinks for the 4 of us plus when we have family get togethers (6,10 to 16 people most often), the boys fill gallon jugs with ice and then water for their marching practices and performances 5-6 dyas a week. Our main fridge kept up with one, but with our younger son moving up to high school this year, I wondered if we would ever have ice. The LG has a super ice setting and after we first hooked it up, I was amazed at how quickly it started making ice. Ours is not FD. The utility room is so narrow that the door shelves would be right in your face and even the smaller door would be something to have to get around. I'm sure the ice maker they use is the same though. LG did have a problem with one FD model a while back -- the interior lights not turning off. It seems they have that addressed and have switched to LED lights that are more energy efficient and will stay cooler if they ever should fail to turn off when the doors are closed. I read one comment from someone who didn't like the blueish light, but it wouldn't bother me, especially once you have food in it....See MoreNeed help with choosing a 48inch refrigerator and range Please!
