This fridge will put me into an early grave.

We enjoyed our LG fridge for about six months. Then, the never-ending battle began.

First, we heard a knocking sound. After answering the door to no one for the tenth time, we realized it was the fridge. I Googled. I read the manual. I scratched my head. Unplug it, everything more-or-less told me. Great; restart it. Hold down CTRL+ALT+DELETE at the same time. Got it.

I left it unplugged for the recommended four hours. Then I powered it back up and the knocking immediately commenced. A few days later, we got the IF error code.

Error code? A refrigerator has an error code? Seriously. This was too complicated already. Once again, I turned to Google, the manual, and my scalp.  I called the store. After all, they had strongarmed us into a warranty I didn't want, and Im so glad they did.

So the repairman came out. He told me that these fridges were notorious for breaking down. Then he proceeded to show me how to repair it myself because, This isn't the first time and it won't be the last.

We took the entire freezer apart to get to the ice blower fan, essentially. It gets frozen solid. Every three months like clockwork.

Was it manageable? Yeah. First world problems and all that. But then other stuff started going down:

-The large mechanism that slides into some other cheap, plastic part did something stupid, so the door wouldnt always close. So guests would shut our fridge but not shut our fridge, which resulted in 
-A ripped rubber door seal.
-No matter what temp the fridge was set at, food sitting directly on the glass shelves or in two of the three produce drawers would freeze. And were not talking about some delightful icy crunch. Entire pieces of fruit, meat, even cheese would freeze solid. Did you know cheese could turn into ice? It can. We cannot store food in half of our fridge. (However, I lined all of the shelves in newspaper, which seems to have helped. Plus, I can now read about the local elections from a year ago every morning while I get the orange juice.)
-The freezer fan clogs with ice so often, I have to mention it 
- twice.
-The water dispensing button is starting to stick.
-The ice dispenser clogs on a daily basis. We keep a knife honer nearby to stab into the bin. I repeat, this happens daily.
-It gets fingerprinted to he77. I know this is a hazard of being an appliance in a home where the occupants have hands. But I hate this thing and now Im just searching for more to add to the list.
-The water valve that connects the water line to the fridge wore out. So now we don't even get water or ice until I replace it.
-And now the ice maker is broken. That's a $120 part.

We have a second fridge in our house. We got it for free from an apartment complex that was throwing them away. We keep it in the garage as a beer fridge. Dudes, this fridge (I don't even know the brand) is probably 20 years old (at least), is ugly as sin, and is chugging away like we do on  beer.

Meanwhile, my $2,500 LG heartache mocks me with a frozen water melon, incessant ticking, and dripping water.

After using this fridge for a month, it was not working correctly.  It would get cold, then defrost, then cold again and defrost, etc.  I had to throw food out a few times.  Contacted support.  They could not fix it.  So, they gladly gave me a refund.  So, be careful on this one.

I purchased this Fridge in January, 2014, even after I read the reviews which were not good.  I thought, really how bad can this be....  This really needs to come with a Buyer Beware sticker.

For some reason I thought the warranty of this unit was for 2 years, it is not only 1.  We went 9 Months with out the water line hitched up.  It worked great and I loved it.  Finally we decided that the reason why we went with an in door ice machine and water dispenser was to use it.  So we finally hitched it up.  That was the worst mistake we could have made.  It started making Ice just fine and was fine for the 1st 3-4 months.  I went to one day to place ice in a glass and pushed the button to have the ice dispensed.  It made noise but then didn't work.  When we tried to pull out the tray that keeps the ice, it wouldn't move.  After forcing it and trying to get it dispense the ice, we were finally able to pull the tray out.  Low and behold to ice maker that was above it fell down into the ice and auger.  Once we pressed to button to get ice, it jammed and that was why we had an issue with pulling out the tray.  I called tech support, who was nice enough to sell me an extended service plan even though I was out of that window ($326 for 3 years) and they dispatched the local repair guy.  He came out and ordered and installed a new ice maker (valued at $400).  Problem solved, right.....

WRONG!

After the new ice machine was installed it worked great for another few months.  One day, it started to make noise from the fan inside.  I couldn't figure out what was wrong with it, and called for service.  The same repair person came back out to look at it, and found that it was freezing up inside.  He rescheduled to come back out, with help to tip the fridge and check the drain line for blockage.  He came out, snaked down through the drain line and didn't find anything.  2 weeks later, I had the same noise.  Called back and rescheduled another appointment.  This time it became progressively louder until it just shut down.  We thought yay, no more noise.  Everything was froze up and it wouldn't make ice anymore.  Not a problem we have enough ice right now, at least the noise had stopped.  Well, no noise, no cooling so everything that was froze up melted.  Right out the door and onto my carpeted rug!  Dumped the Ice to prevent more water from running out.  3 Days later, it started making ice again.  So here is the cycle we are in now...  3-4 days of making ice, Starts to get noisy on day 4, noise will progressively get louder day 5,6 & 7.  On day 8 it'll shut down, and defrost on day 9, 10, 11.  Day 12 the ice machine will kick back on and it will repeat the process.

Can you say fed up!

I have contacted tech support numerous times.  The local repair man doesn't know what is wrong with it, and has washed his hands with it.  So tech tried to get someone else to come "fix" it.  They were supposed to come this morning.  I got the call and was talking with the guy, to only find out they do not service anything another company has "fixed".  They were the only ones left to do the work.

I have made a complaint to Frigidaire.  They have now decided to replace the Fridge.  I have informed them, I do not want another Fridge, just my money back.

I am DONE with this aggravation!

So, Unless you want a big Headache and a Fridge that makes noise and doesn't make or keep Ice half the time.  Save your Money.  This Fridge is not worth the Price tag for something that doesn't work.

We are now looking to purchase a New Fridge, and guess what....

It will not be a Frigidaire!

Bought this as a replacement for my newish side-by-side GE fridge with "Artica" ice tray (the big one). Right away it started making too much ice, it would overflow ice into the freezer before it would auto shutoff, the way the stopper arm works just doesn't work well in our fridge. This drove my wife nuts, she complained about it forever. I ignored this for a year, as husbands do.

While on a business trip she said it had broken so when I got back I found she had somehow ripped off the plastic ice tray fitting thing so I reassembled it and "fixed it". Well, the next morning she woke up to some awful grinding sound, she said it sounded like a train was in the living room when she opened the freezer it had dumped water all over the place, and now that water was frozen, all over.

We had to empty the freezer contents into a cooler and use an improvised ice pick and hair dryer to get all the ice out. I checked on Amazon and the OEM GE version was $99 bucks and, more importantly, available on Prime Same Day! I installed that last week and so far, so good.

I wouldn't recommend this unit, it only lasted a year, and it always made too much ice. When it finally broke it did so in a spectacularly bad fashion that caused lots of marriage testing work.

Shame on Whirlpool by making a fridge handle so flimsy. My fridge is less than 3 years old but I refused to buy another piece of crap to replace it.

i HATE HATE HATE this freezer. It roars all day, deposits big ice bergs on anything i stick in there, and if i open the door to retrieve anything and the door accidentally closes before i am done in there it takes great force and effort to reopen the door.  i wish i could stab it dead.  if i were strong enough I'd roll it out the back door and throw it off the porch and rejoice as the buzzards feasted on its melting carcass! (If i could entice any buzzards to eat the stupid thing)

If I couldn't put a zero I would've and it's the ugliest ugliest thing I've ever owned

Nice fridge but all banged up when arrived. Multiple dents.

I was looking for a replacement for an older Taylor timer that I had for about 5 years when it finally died. I next got one at the Dollar Tree but it was too flimsy, so I went on Amazon and I liked that this one let you set 2 timers and so I bought it. I don't like it. To switch from timer one to timer two, you have to forcefully click the side buttons, which then leads to my next issue: when you try to push the buttons while this timer is on your fridge, it falls off. You need 2 hands to click the timer1/2 buttons if you don't want this thing clamoring to the floor. The magnet is not very strong and even if you just tap the start/stop button, the timer will fall off of the fridge. I've gotten used to just taking it off of the fridge when I need to use it and setting it on my counter. The problem then is that when I try to stick it back to the fridge, the magnet sometimes makes the whole timer spin upside down and may even fall on the floor once you let it go. The magnet is garbage and you'll have to learn how to properly balance this thing on your fridge if you want it to stay upright and not just fall off whenever you slightly touch it.
I think someone also said this in an earlier review, but even though the timer shows seconds, you cannot set the timer for seconds. Before I bought this timer, I thought that the two buttons besides the start/stop button would be for minutes and seconds. Nope. They are for hours and minutes. I don't know what kind of kitchen cooking project needs 43 hours and 85 minutes like the product picture shows, but it's frustrating because I can't tell you how many times I've set a timer for what I thought was 5 minutes, time passes and I wonder if I missed hearing the timer so I go to check and I had mistakenly set the thing to 5 hours....
I paid over $12 for this thing so I still have it dangling on my refrigerator and I'm probably not going to toss it out soon, but boy am I looking forward to this timer dying so that I can buy something else, preferably a timer that sticks to the fridge well, that I can press the buttons on easily and that I can use without just expecting it to smash onto the floor with the slightest touch.

It becomes hard as a rock.  If it is not molded right in the refrigerator, it will not fit your head and thus not cool good.

I wish I could return this product - but I missed the cut-off by 3 days.  I hate knowing that this item is taking up space in my room.  It is so inaccurate I have spent time thinking about the filaments it uses to draw the temperature and why it is so inaccurate most of the time. Lesson learned - buy a simple mercury thermometer.

The numbers on the screen have no credibility. I'm in a room that is 71 degrees Fahrenheit right now. This device adds ten degrees to that.  I even used it's snap buckle to place it next to an air conditioning vent. No hope. I brought in a mercury thermometer to verify, but it only upsets me that I have thrown away this item. Makes me feel like I gave into consumerism for having bought it.

Purchased this hunk of cheap plastic about 2008 at Home Depot. Failures so far:

* Logic board, within 2 years of purchase.
* Door gaskets on both refrigerator doors tore within 4 years of purchase.
* Evaporator fan generated excessive noise, caused by insulation hitting the fan blades. $120 to fix.
* Condensation regularly forms at the top of the refrigerator section inside the doors.
* The wire basket in the freezer compartment rusted through the vinyl coating within a year of new purchase.
* Refrigerator section won't cool.  We're packing in ice to keep from ruining the food.
* Refrigerator and freezer controls are inoperative.
* It's almost impossible to clean.
* Most repair services won't touch it.  The designated LG service person in our area is only taking warranty repair work and he has a 6 month backlog.

This LG is the most poorly designed and built appliance that I have ever owned.  I will never buy another one, and I recommend you don't, either.

This fridge is visually pleasing and the lights/shelf layouts are fine.  It does fit into the exact space our old Sub Zero 632 took up and is very quiet.  That's where the good stuff ends.  Unfortunately, the support is absolutely terrible (especially if you buy from Amazon:  Samsung would not even deal with me on my icemaker that is taking a week to fill up because "in the first 30 days you can only deal with the seller").  We bought this through "Home Care Company" and dealing with them has been a nightmare.  Despite promising inside delivery, they did not provide it and took weeks to respond.  The unit was over a week late from the "worst case scenario".  The dispenser light is set to "auto" but seems to have no rhyme or reason to when or why it turns off.  Sometimes it'll stay on, and sometimes it goes off after a second or two even if we're still actively drawing ice or water.  The speaker for playing Pandora doesn't deliver very good sound quality - it sounds like music playing from a tin cup.  Why they even bothered putting sound in this thing is beyond me.  Further the "epicurious" app which I thought would be a great addition simply doesn't work.  I learned from searching this issue that something changed in November and has not been updated even as of August 2016 (I doubt they're going to fix this) - so you've got a display showing the icon and the app that errors out every time you try to use it.

The items that you put in the back row near the cold air vents will freeze.  We've got ours set at 42 degrees, and everything in the back row has ice crystals, so that third of the fridge is unusable unless you're okay with having iced milk.  Beyond that, if you set the freezer below -10, your icemaker just won't make ice.  It has to be set at the very coldest setting to be able to keep up with even limited family demand.

Fast forward to this freezer's 2nd year in service, and it's making my 3 year old very happy since Frozen's Elsa is living inside and turning the whole freezer into the frozen north Mountain.  From googling this problem, it looks like it's either due to a frozen drain line, or cracked water valve.  Seriously?  Second year in service, and already it's flooding the freezer and everything in it and creating a winter wonderland that block of ice that has all of our frozen food stuck to the shelves and to itself.  What a friggin mess.  Spent 2 hours last night with a hairdryer just trying to melt enough ice to get things out of that freezer into a different freezer, and haven't had time to actually address the problem.

Terrible quality, Samsung!  How does something this expensive get built so cheaply?!  No wonder people are willing to pay 10-20 grand for a sub zero.

UPDATE:  Sept 20th, 2017.  Lowering to 1 star.  This fridge has acquired problems.  Thermostat is unstable, repairman came out under warranty a couple weeks ago.  Part is ordered.  I don't have the sense it is coming any time soon.  The unit has also taken to having motor noise / hum / vibration.  Frost appears in back even though this is not a freezer.  Company sanctioned warranty repairman tells me I should defrost it on a regular basis EVEN THOUGH THIS IS NOT A FREEZER!  At this point I would not buy this but would instead buy a GE fridge of the same size, even though the GE would have the freezer unit part that I don't want.

Absolutely wonderful 2nd fridge.  We have owned it one month.  Did not by from Amazon but there were no reviews so I thought I would post here.

Our large fridge upstairs was "not enough" capacity.  When we entertain and have the inevitable ton of leftovers, or when we stock up on cheese / yogurt / cake / potato salad etc. deals at the store - we need a reliable "overflow" fridge  BUT we don't want to have the space usage and electric bill of a full blown 2nd fridge.  THIS SUMMIT Model # FF61 IS THE ANSWER!

THIS "FREEZERLESS" FRIDGE SIZE / PRODUCT IS KIND OF UNIQUE IN THE MARKETPLACE from what I can tell:

We used to have small Magic Chef 4.4 cu foot fridge for this purpose but the Summit being slightly larger and NOT HAVING A FREEZER makes all the difference in the world.

First of all, that one extra Cubit Foot of space  (5.5 vs. 4.4) means....

It's big enough to accomodate a larger watermelon or small turkey carcass or a 12" round cake or pie, without having to fight to close the door. (a problem with our old 4.4 cu foot Magic Chef).

 It was shipped double boxed.  It has a plethora of shelves (too many really, we took some out.).  My only slight complaint is the "crisper" or veggie drawer at the bottom - picture is a bit misleading - it's only half depth.  But we can still get lettuce, a head of cabbage, pkg of celery and bag of carrots in there.  You'll want to apply a hack I did to the top of the glass shelve that is right above the crisper drawer:  apply 2 pieces of tape on each side of the glass that crosses over and sticks to the fridge unit white plastic.  Why do this?  Because there's a tendency for the cripser shelf to make the glass come with you, i.e. out towards you when you pull the white plastic crisper shelf.  NOTE:  This issue is * NOT * a big deal.  The "fix" I mention is an enhancement you can opt to do that takes all of 2 minutes.

The lack of a freezer is a GOOD thing for our purposes as those freezers in small fridges tend to be a compromise anyway.  (To keep the freezer cold enough, you end up setting the thermostat where it is more likely to freeze the regular food and vice versa).

HOW WELL DOES IT COOL FOR IT'S INTENDED PURPOSE?  GREAT.  We have thermostat set slightly past half way mark and cheese, yogurt, pies, etc are kept perfectly cool.

NO MOTOR NOISE, HUM or VIBRATION that I can hear.

The door handle is nicely styled, comes installed with Left Hand Side Pull but you can change it to Right Hand Side Pull IF you want.

SUMMARY:  My family * LOVES * this fridge.  It's well made, cute, and keeps our perishables and pop cold.  I can really recommend this.

P.S.  They (Summit) make a companion "freezer only" version of this if you wanted it.

UPDATE 4/25/2017 - The thermostat has gone out of kilter and currently there is a tendency for this fridge to freeze all of my food (i.e. it runs at 28 - 32 degrees!  Regardless of how low I turn the dial setting to.  Go figure.  I am going to put in a warranty claim.  I * DO * like this fridge, when it works right.  We will see how they handle my service claim.  Lowering to 3 stars for now.

UPDATE  11/05/2017  Repairman finally got the factory replacement theromostat part and the fridge has been running correctly for aprox 2 weeks now.  Raising this to 3 starts but going through this factory warranty repair has been a lot of hassle.  We'll see.

Loved my Frigidaire for about a year and a half. Now I hate it. Refrigerator stopped working, after the one year (what-a-joke) warranty wore out. The refrigerator is less than two years old. How does it stop working in less than two years? We had an old refrigerator, nothing fancy, that never gave us problems in the 6 years we had it. Ever. This brand new POS, on the other hand, is forcing us, for the second time in three months, to live out of two coolers, buying ice in the morning and evening just to keep the perishables from perishing while we wait for the extended warranty company to get their act together. Great job, Frigidaire. Great job. Never again.

I tried 3 of these from Sears and they all did the same thing.  This refrigerator just does not get very cold.  I wanted a fridge for COLD beer in my mancave.  I wanted a refrigerator that would get down to 33-34 degrees.  This thing does not get real cold.  If you are ok with that than this refrigerator may be ok for you.  Also frozen food needs to be 0 degrees or lower to be preserved, 10 degrees with this one.  I wasted a lot of time with this appliance.  I had Sears give me a refund.
