Even if this fridge doesn't have the poorly designed compressor
Why the heck would you ever consider giving this company your money if given a choice?
Do people have amnesia of how LG handled that debacle? And then icing on cake was all of their sneaky ways they slipped in forced arbitration on their customers?
For those in here mocking other posters concerned about this fridge... they have every right to be concerned and of no fault of their own. LG imploded the trust in the brand. Why the heck would you take LG's side and call people morons for asking questions?
I bought this a month ago. Here were my question points and some findings:
- LG Compressor issues. You can verify yourself on the spec sheet this no longer has the problematic "new" style compressor that LG had issues with. It's back to a more traditional style.
- Lack of ice in door. For us this hasn't been a big problem since water is already chilled. It's not worth the issues that the refrigerator/ice combo come with.
- This thing is cavernous. Both because there's no wasted space to an ice maker in the refrigerator, but also it being the largest you can buy, our cramped fridge became kind of empty looking when we swapped to this.
- Water in the door hinge area. I was worried about energy loss but after doing some math on the energy loss standing with the door open getting water it's, at maximum, a few dollars per year. The majority of the energy is stored in the temperature of the items inside and not the air itself.
- Costco Delivery. Was genuinely A+. No nicks, no issues except they were 15 min outside their delivery window.
Edit-
- A bonus I found out later is this actually does have WiFi capability. It lets you customize chimes, set and view temperature, enable Ice Plus, Economic Care and Smart Air (supposedly this analyzes your usage and does some pre-cooling type stuff to optimize energy savings), Sabbath Mode, Energy Saver, Light customization.
No it is not, idk why you are so obsessed with this. It uses part # BMH130NCMV, a standard reciprocating compressor. NOT the linear ones that caused all the recent problems. Older LG fridges with their reciprocating compressors before the switch to linear were as reliable as all the other GE's and Whirlpools.
Will Costco hook up water line from old frig to new? Also, I'm keeping my old frig but want them to put in garage for me (I will cap off waterline). Do you think that will be an issue? Thanks in advance!
Our delivery team will:
Visually inspect the items to make sure there's no damage. If you see damage, please contact us immediately for assistance
Connect new appliance(s) to existing home utilities and test for proper operation (testing to be performed upon confirmation of properly installed utilities)
Remove all packaging materials from your home
Haul away replaced appliances (move 1 item for each like item delivered) or move to a lower floor, basement, or garage. The delivery team is unable to relocate to a different address or re-connect relocated items
Recycle your used "haul way" item following strict, environmentally friendly guidelines
I ordered this refrigerator and today it's just 40 days since it was delivered! Already having problem where it's not cooling and all everything is melting down!
Costco cannot replace because this is not in stock any more! Options they are giving is return/refund! Or LG coming out to repair! LG support/service is already closed for the day and now it will be tomorrow at the earliest when they can connect with the LG service...

I had LG from before which was still going good for last 15 years but still I upgraded...! I heard many bad reviews about Samsung and wanted to stay away from that, hence chose another LG!
