19.7 Cu. Ft. French Door Refrigerator

French Door refrigerators provide easy access to the foods you reach for the most by placing them at eye level. And at 30 inches wide, this refrigerator will fit in more kitchens. Plus, every new LG model is Energy Star rated, which means they are 20% more efficient than federal standards.

"I've had this fridge for about a week now and it's great. It's quiet and fits perfectly in my small kitchen. The middle temperature setting keeps food and beverages very cold. The shelves and bins are easy to remove so they can be arranged the way you want them. The deeper shelves on the doors free up tons of space inside the fridge."

"We purchased this refrigerator after months research for our new home and we are very happy with it. Initially we thought we have no other choice than to go for counter depth which is very expensive. But recently got to know about this LG model and found it to fit in our refrigerator space nicely. for less than 20 cu ft it seems to have lots of space and freezer is big too. we like the way the shelves are in two columns giving options to arrange different size items in each column. over all nice refrigerator and french door style adds to the look. Its just been couple of days that we bought this product. no problems it runs fine, very quiet, ice maker is good too.
would have been excellent if the refrigerator width is little bit more."

A Great Refrigerator,

"A Great Refrigerator
On 04-25-2009 purchased LG LFC20760SW in Bellevue, WA store. Paid $1,192.55. Free delivery and free hall away. Delivered 3 days later.
By mid-April 2009 we were actively looking for a new fridge to fit in 32"(W) x 68½"(H) available space in our kitchen. Then right away I found that the available choices are not too many. Besides the dimensions a great freezer section and a built-in ice maker was a must. Functionality and overall appearance were important aspects too. Energy efficient features: it is good to be green. Our price constraint was to spend no more than $1500.
The pictures and sales brochures always look great but before I buy, I usually want to spend some time playing with the product I am researching and considering.
The bottom-freezer, French-door style was not our first choice until I ran into the LG LFC20760** (“SW” white, “ST” stainless steel or “SB” black) models. Showed to my wife some pictures and product specs of (here on The Home Depot’s web-site and from manufacturer’s web site). She liked the look and overall design.
Bottom freezer meant that the food in the refrigerator section is within an easy reach. I agreed as I don’t open twenty or more times per day the freezer while I do that for the refrigerator. At the same time, the location for the crisper bins with all of the fruits and vegetables moved closer to me. I like repeating myself that eating balanced and healthy means more, as fresh as possible fruits and vegetables and less vitamin supplements. With the French door design as soon as you open the doors you will be reminded to check the crisper bins too.
The near “The Home Depot” store didn’t have any of these LG LFC20760** refrigerators on display but they had in the store few larger and bigger LGs from the same product line. After I tested a little larger unit in the store I was sold to the smaller unit that would fit in our space.
For a good surprise, the sales assistant at “The Home Depot” told me that because this product is an Energy Star rated appliance they will take off 10% of the price right away. So no hassle of sending product registration, receipts and so on to our utility company to get refunds or rebates (you may check what options are available for you here on EnergyStar’s website.). At the same time, the delivery and haul away were free. Bought it instantly while I was in the store; paid less than $1200 with all taxes included.
Three days later the fridge was delivered at home. It was installed within less than half an hour. The doors and freezer drawer had to be removed and attached. Connecting a new icemaker line (a tubing line) required opening and closing of a panel cover at the back. Overall: professional, fast and clean installation. The old was gone and the new one started running.
It takes a little time to discover how the new fridge behaves. We left the temperature controls (one for the fridge, and another for the freezer) set at 4 (default). The fridge is quiet. If you leave the doors or freezer drawer open longer then you will hear the sound alarm. Very nice! Two hours later the ice maker made couple of ice cubes. The ice-maker is noisy. This is something you cannot hear around display units at the show rooms because the appliances there are not powered as refrigerators/freezers thus no running icemaker too.
The overall 19.7 cu.ft. volume of LG LFC20760** [refrigerator: 13.4 cu.ft.; freezer: 6.3 cu.ft.] is greater than the volume of our old refrigerator. It looked like the refrigerator offers less space than we had before but we have much larger freezer now.
There is a left and a right set of shelves in the refrigerator; as a result there a good flexibility arranging the inner space. We removed the can dispenser as it occupied too much space (we usually don’t put so many cans in the fridge - it takes 13 cans to fill up the can dispenser. There is an icemaker; couple of ice cubes per can serve the purpose.)
The door racks offer good storage space; still combined it is less than the single door space. We have the French doors: perceived as a factor in better energy efficient appliance while offering a better look. Yes, the French doors are factor in the energy savings if you have one of the doors left opened for shorter intervals; but imagine if you opened both doors or kept one of the doors opened long enough?
The freezer is excellent! It is roomy and you can store a whole turkey or use the divider to partition the space. If you are well organized you don’t have to go to the bottom of the freezer section to find what you look for. A help in that direction provides the glide-out drawer basket in the freezer. It is very convenient when pulling out the ice bin or reaching some other items on the basket. When pushing it back the ice bin may hit the feeler arm of the ice maker; if this is the case then the feeler and the bin slightly move and allow you to return the basket in the normal position without any other issues.
A week later after the appliance is running, both temperature controls are still set at 4 (the available positions are from 1 to 7). The temperature in the refrigerator is ~ 40 Fahrenheit; the freezer maintains ~ 2 Fahrenheit. It is likely we may need to re-adjust these dials in the summer and winter.
I and my wife like the refrigerator very much. Our little girl doesn’t use the fridge yet but from what she can express – I can say she likes it too. We can store more food in the freezer section and always have a gallon or two of ice cream there. We have a convenient and a flexible in organizing a refrigerator section. Overall LG LFC20760** is a great appliance. Excellent price!
p.s. I found interesting that not a single manufacturer offers more than 1 (one) year standard warranty on their refrigerators. I am not a believer in the extended warranty. I hope our LG LFC20760SW will run without any problems for at least 10 or so years. Will see."

quality refrigerator,
April 24, 2009

"Needed a 30" refrigerator in a small kitchen with limited door swing space--this was (summer 2008) and remains (spring 2009) the best solution and the only 30 inch wide french door fridge.
Have had it installed for about 9 months now, and am very happy. Maintains correct and consistent temperature, holds more than you'd think, very, very quiet (except for ice maker, which is loud). Gallon storage in door is convenient. Overall, a great solution for the small kitchen.
Only dislikes are that the interior fittings are bulky plastic (would prefer something more space-efficient like Liebherr and Fagor) and that the door hinges aren't hidden. Both are minor quibbles; overall, we are very happy with this fridge. Note that the buying experience at homedepot.com was also great, with good pricing, prompt delivery and careful haul-away."

It's ok...,

"We decided to update the appliances in our kitchen and needed a refridgerator with a 30" width. There are few choices out there but saw this LG and chose it. We previously had a side by side and thought that this would be equivalent storage. Well, it's not. I'm not a big fan of the bottom freezer. Things seem to get lost in the big tub. There is a shelf with the ice maker but be careful if the ice tray gets too full. The ice will catch when you open the drawer and fall out. We have also had trouble with the basket in the drawer shifting so that it hits the back roller and makes a clunking sound. Overall it's a nice looking fridge and for the two of us, adequate. But definitely a change from the regular side by side. I would recommend if you need to fill a small space. Home Depot's delivery was great."
