Has anyone tested accuracy of the temperature settings in the fridge and freezer are with a fridge thermometer? How much variation should there be between the door setting and the actual reading after the doors have been closed for sufficient time? null

Hi there. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your inquiry regarding the temperature accuracy of your LG Counter-Depth MAX 25.5 Cu. Ft. French Door Smart Refrigerator. Generally, a variation of approximately 1°C to 2°C (2°F to 4°F) is considered normal as the unit cycles to maintain efficiency. To ensure the most accurate reading, we recommend placing a thermometer in a glass of water in the center of the shelf for 24 hours. Your feedback is important, and we'd like to assist you further.

Temp is accurate.

I have used two different thermostats to monitor actual temp vs set temp. I have mine set to 33 which is the lowest 
 possible setting.  If I keep the frig closed for a couple hours at a time it will maintain the set temp (33) and if it gets opened and closed if may rise 2-3 degrees but then returns to set temp if I keep it closed for an hour or two. I was doing this to test it's ability to reach the lowest setting (33).  Since I am now more confident that it is cooling properly I will probably raise the set temp to 34 or 35.  They say 37 is ok but I like my food and water bottles a bit cooler.  I am liking the water in the door and buy less water bottles now but the water in the door is not very chilled so you need to add ice.
