I have had this fridge freezer for 6 months now and have been very pleased with it (once it was repaired). There is plenty of room in the fridge and the freezer is big enough for the two of us. Not sure if it would be big enough for a family though. We love the way it looks and it sits nicely next to a work surface and cupboards. Once you have had a water dispenser you will never want to do without one again. Having both ice cubes and crushed ice on tap is a real luxury. The salad draw is great too. The ice maker is pretty quiet too. I have friends who complain about theirs (not LG) but the LG one is quiet and you only hear it when it tips the ice out into the tray. We have had guests sleeping in hte same room as this fridge and there have been no complaints (open plan living, we don't put friends up in the kitchen). The doors have alarms on them which sound when they have not been shut properly. There is also no need to defrost the freezer as it is kept frost free. The shelves all come out and therefore it is easy to clean. I like the way you can adjust the shelves in the fridge and the doors in order to suit what ever it is you want to store. The water filter gives you a warning when it is in need of changing. I am not sure how much the replacements are as I have yet to replace mine.
When delivered it was damaged. The doors were dented and the water dispenser packed up on the first day. These things happen though so was not too upset about that. What did upset me was that neither the online retailer nor LG were particularly helpful as it took 4 months to get it sorted. At no point did either of them call me and my overall impression of their customer services is poor. However the overall quality of the product outweighs the poor customer service.

Sorry for the poor rate, but your review didn't tell me an awful lot about the product eg why this one vs any other American style fridge freezer, how easy is it to clean, is the ice maker noisy, any good features like alarms on the doors, etc, etc. If you decide to edit your review to add some more information, give me a nudge & I'll come back & re-read. Ali :-)
