7 Small Changes That Will Make The Biggest Difference In Your LG American Fridges

LG American Fridges

In our surveys, LG refrigerators received high reviews from owners for their capacity, storage capacity and organization as well as the quality of the ice maker and energy efficiency. They also have advanced smart capabilities, like door cooling, which helps maintain the temperature in the utility compartment.

Features such as the InstaView Door-in-Door let you see inside without opening. Moreover, when you knock twice on a translucent wall, it turns transparent. ThinQ lets you connect your LG refrigerator with your phone.

Door-in-Door Fridge Freezers

If you're looking for the appearance of a built-in refrigerator but don't have the space for a large freezer, door-in-door refrigerators are an alternative. These models feature a compartment on the side of the doors that can be opened with two quick knocks. The compartment's sleek tinted panel is lit up to show what's inside, without letting cold air escape, and thereby helping food stay fresher longer.

This style is relatively new, but a few brands--including LG and Samsung--offer them. Consumer Reports found that these fridges are similar in size and performance as their counterparts without a door-in-door, but they didn't offer as much storage. They're also generally more expensive than other fridges.

If you're interested in getting one, consider the well-rounded LG LRFLC2706S. It has the best combination of design and capacity we've seen in this price range (usually about $2,000), and it is from a company that has high levels of customer satisfaction. It also comes with a slightly better warranty than other refrigerators in this price range.

Counter-depth refrigerators can give your kitchen a seamless look, because they blend seamlessly with the counters. Pick from a range of designs including standard-depth French-doors counter-depth side-by-side refrigerations and bottom-freezer-counter-depth fridges. Many of these models also include innovative features, such as InstaView technology that allows you to see what's inside the refrigerator without opening the door--just knock it twice and the panel will illuminate to reveal the contents.

A smart fridge is an excellent investment for any kitchen. Find models with Wi-Fi that connects to your home's internet which allows you to manage and monitor your fridge from anywhere. Some offer LG ThinQ app compatibility, allowing you to create and share shopping lists and upload photos between your smartphone and refrigerator. There are refrigerators with Smart Cooling, which makes use of sensors to analyze and adjust the temperature inside automatically to ensure food stays fresher for longer.

French Door Fridge Freezers

Add a sleek, built-in look to your kitchen without sacrificing storage space with LG French Door Refrigerators. With a range of sizes and configurations to pick from, you'll be able to find a fridge that suits your unique space perfectly, yet offering access to your favorite foods. LG's unique InstaView Door-in-Door feature illuminates by knocking two times on the tinted glass panel that lets you easily see your food and beverage favorite items while keeping cold air out. LG SmartThinQ, which connects to Wi-Fi, enables you to manage essential functions such as temperature, ice production, and diagnostic services. Get the best in refreshing Ice with LG Craft Ice. It produces crystal-clear ice cubes that give a touch of luxury your refrigerator or home bar.

The LRFLC2706S has the best mix of capacity and design we've seen for the price point from a company that has a good reputation for reliability. It's a typical layout for the typical French door fridge, but the back wall is constructed of metal instead of white plastic. It also features modern straight edges for its adjustable shelves and bins. It has a full width deli drawer with two half-width drawers as well as an even more crisp drawer with adjustable slides to regulate humidity. And its freezer is larger than the majority with a top-to-bottom layout which helps you locate things at eye-level.

It's not as big as our top choice for a garage fridge, however, it's big enough to keep the majority of people well fed. It also has a variety of smart features you can control with an app, including the TurboCool setting that cools the fridge down quickly and aids in cleaning and defrosting. It also has a separate compartment for the freezer that can be set to an ad-hoc temperature from the rest of the fridge.

This is a less expensive model that comes with this feature. It's worth a look especially if you're looking to utilize the freezer to store things like wine bottles and party trays that may not fit on the main shelves. It's Energy Star certified and uses less energy than comparable refrigerators. However, it does not have a retractable shelving system, so tall items such as beverages and condiments must be stored flat or in the door bins.

Side-by-Side Fridge Freezers

They typically include more advanced features than other models. For instance, they may include a dual icemaker for crushed and cubed ice, an air purifier called FreshFlow that helps reduce odors and a water dispenser that comes with the ability to measure fill. This allows you to pour specific amounts such as 4, 8 or 32 ounces. They also come with a sleek, modern style that blends well with cabinets and can give your kitchen an integrated look.

Depending on the model, you might also get smart functions that allow you to control your freezer and refrigerator through your tablet or smartphone. You can set up the refrigerator to run an evening schedule. You can also do a smart diagnostic and set up Economic Care+ patterns for energy efficiency, and many more. You'll require the LG ThinQ application to make use of these features, and you should make sure that it's up-to-date prior to using it.

Another way to get more value from your fridge is by upgrading to one with a door-in-door compartment. These models can hold larger platters and drinks, making them a great option for hosting. These models are available in different finishes, including stainless steel and classic slate in black. Some models also have counter-depth designs that let them be flush with cabinets to create seamless appearance.

If you're thinking of buying a side-by-side fridge freezer, be aware that they aren't easy to install in tight spaces and use more power than other refrigerators. They might also not be able of storing tall items well and might have limited freezer storage space compared with bottom-freezer models. The best deals are available during major appliance sales, or during holidays.
