Who put the dent in the side of the right hand door? Also my doors on a LF30S8210S were not only misaligned but the door on the left was skewed so the gap at the top was bigger at the top, than the bottom. LG technician came to my home and fixed everything! Went over everything with a fine tooth comb. At no charge came out twice to replace door seal gaskets and hinge. All at no cost. What company does that these days? LG is creditable in my book.

Thanks! Just purchased this same fridge but with handles and love it so far! Question: how long did it take for you to have ice? We were told up to 48 hours but thought that sounded like a long time. Starting to see a few cubes in freezer bucket. Nothing in door dispenser and no cold water yet.
@HuskerNKC4 ай бұрын
It did not take long. You should run a gallon+ of water through the water filter before you use it. Also, throw out the first 24 hours of ice.

We've just purchased this fridge but it won't be here until February. Nice to see how it looks all set up. The bins are a great idea, do you know what kind of height will fit in there? Also do you know if magnets stick to any part of it? Our old LG is magnetized above the water dispenser. Just trying to figure out if a magnetic calendar would work on it.
@HuskerNKC10 ай бұрын
I believe there is about 4.5 inches in the convert drawer, maybe 5. We purchased bins from target. I'll try to add a link in the description of I can figure it out. The front and sides are magnetic, we hang a morning checklist for our kids on the front and a few pictures on one side.

@@JstcountryGirl that is very odd. I have no issues and when looking at the gear rack and pinon gear on both sides I don't see why it would bind part way back. Looking down both tracks of mine I would only expect issues if something was in the way. I was thinking you could grease the gear part in the track. My other thought is maybe it is part of the mechanism that helps it close is binding or set incorrectly. On a brand new fridge I would definitely reach out to LG.

There is not an option for it on the app or door panel. As far as I can tell the only way to shut it off is to completely disable it. You have to remove the screws and pop the top plastic cover off. The buzzer is under there and there are videos online showing how to disable it.

How much wall gap do you have on the water dispenser side? I have a similar situation so wanted to be sure the fridge will fit. Thanks?
@HuskerNKC8 ай бұрын
Here are several measurements for you... Front fridge width 35-3/4" Both doors swing distance is 2" My fridge opening at the upper cabinets is 37-9/16"... this caused an issue with the door not being able to open enough to be functional. My lower cabinets provided a bigger opening so I have my fridge at a slight angle. It is pressed against the upper cabinet, but angled so the back left side is closer to the wall and the front right side is actually at 38-1/4" from the wall (gaining me just under 3/4") and creating a different angle for the door to open. This makes it so my door doesn't hit the wall and so I can open it more than enough to be functional. Hope that makes sense. Ideally I would have an opening closer to 38-1/2 or 39 if it is pressed to a wall like mine, but on a slight angle I made it work.

Cut out hidden handles at the top and bottom of the door. I was definitely hesitant when I picked this model, but we actually really like it. Very clean look and easy to open from the top or bottom. We have kids as young as 3 who open it no problem... It's too high for them to get anything, but they can open it to "help" with lunches or putting away groceries. We like the convert drawer for snacks for this very reason. We can put healthy kid snacks in each bin at an easy level for them to reach.
