Great Fridge...
||Posted .We had to return our Samsung 4 door fridge after only 1yr due to the ice maker crapped out. So we picked this LG fridge & we've had it now going on 1 month & really like it...I thought I would miss the ice on the door but to tell you the truth I like the extra room in the fridge instead... The ice maker is great in the freezer section & you still have a lot of freezer space... Very happy with our exchange to this fridge... This fridge is actually about 2 inches smaller than the fridge we replaced & we have more space in both fridge & freezer...

Perfect size for space available.
||Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.we bought this refrigerator for a rental home. It was the perfect size for the space that was available in the kitchen. There is plenty of refrigerator space for a family, and the French doors offer easy efficient access. The water dispenser is a plus. Also, replacing the water filter will be a breeze as it is inside the refrigerator. Freezer space is plentiful, and the automatic ice maker is very convenient.

Fine, get on sale
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Great fridge for smaller spaces, feels a little on the cheaper side (rattling doors and thinner plastic bins etc) but it seems well made and the ice and water are working well.

The nice refrigerator meets my need
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I decided to choose this LG21.8cu ft French Door refrigerator because LG offers 10 years compressor warranty and the price was discounted at the time I looked for a refrigerator. Also, the other customers’ reviews did help me to make my decision for the choice. The delivery was on time. Delivery men’s service was excellent and efficient. The refrigerator was designed very easy to access my food. I love my refrigerator.

Does the job and more
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.We like this refrigerator. It's easy to organize, with multiple drawers, adjustable shelves, and the gliding freezer drawers. My wife loves the shallow drawer at the bottom; we use it for cheeses. Icemaker works well, and we like that the cubes are smaller and square, almost like the old days of freezer trays instead of automatic ice. The old crescent-shaped cubes of our last fridge were hard to get into our sports bottles. 2 nits: You have to make sure to close the door; it doesn't ease shut when you give it a shove. The water from the door dispenser isn't cold. Other than that, and they are minor, this is a great refrigerator and a big improvement over our last, 20-year old model.

Overall happy purchase.
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.So far so good! Lunchmeat/cheese drawer is very roomy. Plenty of shelves in each door to hold condiments, etc. Can fit at least 1/2 gallon milks in door shelf. It's just my husband and I so we don't need those gallons of milk. It might be a little small for a large family. Like the look of the refrigerator. Only thing I miss is the crushed ice feature we had with our previous refrigerator.

Q: QuestionI just got a LFDS22520S. How long does it take to cool down? I don't feel no cold air blowing inside it.
Asked by Julie.
- A:Answer You should allow the ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 21.8 Cu. Ft. French Door Refrigerator - Stainless Steel, Model # LFDS22520S to run for at least two to three hours before putting food in it. If it is still not cooling, check to make sure that the refrigerator is not in Display Mode (For Store Use Only). The Display Mode disables all cooling in the refrigerator and freezer sections to conserve energy while on display in a retail store. When activated OFF will display on the control panel and the display will remain on for 20 seconds. To deactivate/activate: With either refrigerator door opened, press and hold the Refrigerator and Ice Plus buttons at the same time for five seconds. The control panel will beep and the temperature settings will display to confirm that Display Mode is deactivated...^IFV

Q: QuestionI'm wondering if the water from the dispenser is chilled, or just routed from the regular water line. One review brought this up.

Asked by Michael.
- A:Answer The LFDS22520S has the following dimensions: Depth without Door 29", Height to Top of Case 67 1/4", Width 29 3/4". ^CP
Answered by LGAnswers
Q: QuestionDoes the fridge actually need 4.5 inches on either side in order to open the doors 90 degrees? My opening is a little over 33” wide and the actual refrigerator is a little over 29” inches wide. But on one side the fridge will be against a wall.
Asked by Mary.
- A:Answer The Best Buy instructional video about how to measure in preparation for the delivery said that 3.75 inches is required on the side if the fridge is along a wall. One side will be along a wall. The width of my opening is 35 inches. This would allow the necessary 3.75 inches on the side of the fridge that’s along the wall. The other side is along a counter cabinet and the door is well past the depth of the fridge and can open as far as it needs to. Will this not work?
Answered by Mary
Q: QuestionDoes it filter the water for the ice as well?
Asked by J.
- A:Answer Yes, the water goes through the filter then to the water dispenser and ice maker.
