Help - replacing one year old fridge

7 years ago

Well, I thought I loved the LG french door fridge I got last March but it has become so noisy I can't stand it. Vibrates terribly such that the shelves and items inside rattle horribly and very loud when you open it - drives me crazy. One time it was rattling a tray in the cupboard above that I hadn't pushed in far enough.

So I purchased the extended warranty and local dealer says I can get a different fridge. I still feel like I need to see that to believe it but I'm forging ahead.

It seems like I just went through this exercise but wanted to get the current opinions. I have 36 x 70 opening and if I can find a FD model that's 33 inches deep (or less) I'm not going to get counter depth as I really like the larger interior space. I thought that's what I got this time but AJ Madison dimensions were wrong so what I have now is sticking out farther than I'd like. My old one was 33 deep and I have a deeper than counter depth fridge cabinet surround so that would be the ideal size and no door dispenser. I'd prefer black but opening myself to stainless since there are more options. I have a black and stainless range and black DW and microwave and I'm okay with the mix of the two. I don't think I want to introduce black stainless into the mix however.

Any current favorites or stay away from recommendations? I have bad vibes for Samsung and GE just from stuff I've heard. In the past I always had Whirlpool fridges and they were great but for freezing items in the refrigerator if there was a lot of stuff in it. I haven't had that with the LG but could be because it was so huge inside and we rarely filled it up.
