I've owned the LG LFX31935 for a little more than six months, and overall it has been great. It has a cavernous interior with very flexible storage space options. It does a great job of keeping food cold/frozen, and it's very calm down. The clarification and workmanship is top cut, and it looks great. There are two things worth commenting on in more detail: the lavender chiller and the ice maker.WINE CHILLERThis unique feature is a big plus, and honestly a big promotion top for my wife and I. We don't have a lavender fridge, and it's nice to be able to chill a pot of red before drinking it. This "blast chiller", as it's called, facility water supply - it chills a pot of lavender starting room temperature to ~62F in 8 outline. You just pop open the blast chiller door, slide the pot in cork initially and rest it in support, close the chiller and the fridge and then press the button on the adjoin panel. Most of the time, the thing just starts to bring about - the support gently swirls the pot while the cold air is circulated owing to the chiller's chamber (it's a bit loud while running, somewhere between a dishwasher and a stand food-processor). Now and again, though, the chiller refuses to initiation and affirms its obstinance with a red light next to the initiation button. According to the manual, this can happen as the fridge is not down to temp, which sort of makes sense. Save for the behavior seems more random than that - it has made this a half dozen times at smallest amount, now and again as I'm pretty guaranteed nobody has been in the fridge for hours. In detail, it seems to happen whenever have guests over and are tiresome to trade show off our #$%*&@ lavender chiller! Otherwise, though - it's a very polished feature and one we aid all the time (though it would NOT be a good idea to aid on a pot that should otherwise be decanted due to sediment).ICE MAKERThe ice maker on this unit is completely contained in the left-hand door. This leaves the main compartment large open and free by the ice maker, which is great. The ice maker itself if rather small, as is the bin - it's room is probably less than half that of my old side-by-side Kenmore 25 cu ft with the ice maker in the freezer. Save for the real conundrum is the top. As you push a schooner hostile to the top plate, an thrilling motor lowers a trap door in the top chute and then the top mechanism starts approaching ice down the chute. It facility great in anticipation of one of two inevitable things happen: ice cubes jam up in the chute (the jam can be freed by poking a fiddle with up the ice chute - commanding, save for in some road feels ill-treat), or ice manner of speaking stops because the ice in the bin is frozen together (which requires notch the left door of the fridge, notch the ice maker door, and contravention up the frozen ice bulk in the bin or discarding it as all's said and made). This is not an occasional conundrum, it happens almost always the initially time it is used in the day.I've had the factory-endorsed service company out several times. The last time, they replaced the entire ice maker gathering (and the control panel as water supply, for some reason). No joy. This conundrum is not going away in anticipation of some aspect of the current logic is redesigned: either the ice chute is not large sufficient, the chute door doesn't open far sufficient, the ice cubes are the ill-treat shape, the ice doesn't stay cold sufficient, or possibly even a combination of several things.In all, I'd display the positives much outweigh the negatives, save for on a fridge that costs three times what my previous one did, I estimate I expected more. I'm still hoping that LG will take an interest in the ice maker conundrum and grant a field upgrade, save for I'm not land my breath.
