The Fresh Zone and 2 FRESHBalancer™ drawers gives you the option on the humidity setting, depending on whether you're storing fruit or vegetables. Connect to LGs ThinQ app via WiFi to activate the InstaView™ window and for remote control or pair the app with your home speaker.

Large 655 Litre Capacity: Equivalent to 36 bags of shopping, across mutiple compartments to keep your family fed and happy all year round.

Not heard great things about LG and Samsung home appliances. A common fault for LGs is their compressor/condenser motor. Also keep in mind, some removal companies won't move an American style fridge freezer if you're planning on moving in future

Smart looking fridge though, much better than mine which needs defrosting once a year.
22nd Mar
yup, there is even a class action against LG over this in the USA currently. Personally I would avoid.
22nd Mar
This deal needs editing. It is a very good price but some things in the narrative are wrong. 'This super-energy efficient,'
A+ Energy Rating: Reduced noise level and excellent energy efficiency plus power failure safe storage for up to 20 hours.'
It isn't super efficient A class efficiency but E ( as mentioned further down in the spec.). It also hasn't got a water/ice dispenser ,which the description says it has. Not having this does give it a larger capacity freezer though.
Slim SpacePlus®: This ice system dispenses cool purified water or crushed ice when you want it, ideal for long, cool and refreshing drinks on tap.
Have asked mods to correct this deal but they say it's ok , I think it's misleading. Update , they are going to have another look. Update still not done anything. If this was a commercial thing could report them for false advertising .

Hi, as the retailer has this information listed on the website, our deal editors can only go off this information, If the item is listed wrongly at the retailer, we would ask you to contact them in regards to getting this resolved, Noted our deal editor has changed the rating to E in the description for you .

I've got a similar model. The Instaview / Knock Knock thing is completely pointless except for impressing visiting kids. However being able to open that part of the door by itself is really useful - as 90% of your fridge visits are to take the milk out (or beer or wine!), so you don't need to open the whole door, must help energy costs a fair bit especially in summer. That said, I'm not 100% sure whether this model has that feature, I think LG call it "Door in Door" which isn't listed in the specs above.

The other thing I'd say people should think about is this model (and mine) having the salad/veg boxes right at the bottom near the floor is a bit of a pain given that you regularly want to go into them; meanwhile you have easy access to the freezer at arm height; this is the "American" design. With hindsight I would suggest people consider the "French" design (LG do them too) where you have double door fridge across the top and full width freezer drawers across the bottom, I think this would work better for day to day usage. Lastly the freezer cubby holes are a bit annoying - ok for neatly stacking pizzas but you soon end up with piles of random-shaped items that don't stack well. Apparently you can buy 3rd party trays to go into them which would be a bit more efficient, this is on my list of low priority jobs to investigate!
22nd Mar
Agreed. The design of this model has an indent in the middle of the doors to make it look like yours, but from the photos above you can see they are full size doors. I think that is pretty cheeky of LG and looks designed to decisive.
23rd Mar
We have a different model, with the non plumbed ice maker and although freezer space is small we were just really lucky all the white versions during lockdown were sold out so when our cheap beko one broke down the insurers matched to the nearest possible one in currys and we were issued a voucher for 1.5k to go and purchase a replacement. Not bad when the original was about £600.

It's all good aside from one thing. It might be common to the type of fridge freezer we have, but the wall between the fridge and freezer can get super hot. Like, worryingly hot. I'm told it's not an issue but I do worry about it. It would have been nice to have the option to change it to being plumbed at a later date but we can't do that. I did keep the freezer baskets from our old one and they fit in the new one so we mostly have pull out drawers in ours which is nice. Though the front dings quite easily thanks to my being a wheelchair user it's got a few minor dents.... but it's otherwise done really well.

Even have an lg washing machine and like that too. Though I don't rate the dryer cycle I'm fortunate to not have to rely on it for everything.

For this price it's a real bargain. If you wanted to save even more they do come up on some of the outlet stores(ebay) from time to time. I tend to save the ones I like, wait for extra savings events and get double reductions on appliances (edited)
22nd Mar
Personally, given the number of issues I've seen amongst friends that own them and experienced myself with a Samsung...I wouldn't be so comfortable with a short 2 year warranty on everything other than the compressor. My Samsung has a 5 year warranty and multiple things have been replaced after 2 years which would otherwise have been very costly. (edited)
23rd Mar
This is what i was just thinking is 2 yr warranty enough?
22nd Mar
Pretty nice discount, heat added, OP!

P.S. Why would you want to see what's in a quarter of your FF without opening the door?

Class action in the US over these
23rd Mar
Am curious... does this affect the recent models - just looked at about previous ones up to roughly 2020 that do seem to have issues? (edited)
22nd Mar
Intuitive window with ThinQ™ app and WiFi connectivity, allows you to look inside your fridge without opening the door.
Just what I've always wanted in a fridge... but what about if I want to see what's inside the bottom part, or the freezer?
22nd Mar
Install it upside down?
22nd Mar
Be cautious , the company charges a restocking fee if you try and return the item within 14 days
22nd Mar
And so they should. Why on earth would you order this then demand to return and expect them to pick up the bill for you being a total ######. If you dont want it, dont order it, easy....
22nd Mar
This is one of the models with the notorious failing compressor and the very dubious warranty dodge. Buy a smeg instead, maybe?
22nd Mar
Smeg are overrated.

They currently have this model online at John Lewis for £1399, ;2 year warranty) if anyone needs to double check its specification.

I was after a non plumbed American fridge freezer and ended getting this GSLV91MBAC from John Lewis different non plumbef C rated model without the knock on screen/door in doir!

What doesn’t make sense is how my model GSLV91MBAC being delivered soon is a better C rating with only 2 doors (and non plumbed ice/water dispenser) vs LG GSXV91BSAE (1 year newer equivalent) but with the knock/quarter door with E energy rating, (similar to Ops post)

I found a very helpful John Lewis technical support member who had access to detailed LG. Models data and looked into it. They agree with me it didn’t make any sense. My model was released 2022 the other a few months later in 2023.

In the end I decided to stick to my C rating one, and felt the other model (which incidentally price dropped today by another £100) was a bit gimmicky since it was not as economical.

LG customer services and contact support were useless didn’t have an answer when I contacted them. (edited)
24th Mar
I would imagine the glass in the GSXV91BSAE instaview model to be the cause of inefficiency. A solid door with insulation will be better for energy efficiency than a glass door filled with air.
23rd Mar
I would steer clear of LG unless they have changed in the Lat few years. Had one just out of warranty by weeks packed in and LG no interested also the plastic inside walls was cracking. We also had LG TV and washer dryer all experienced issues just out of warranty so no longer go LG will only ever look at Samsung as generally their service is better and so far items seem to be reliable.
Also LG offer 2 year warranty and Samsung 5 years. I know which one I would trust. If items are produced to last they won’t offer a longer warranty so get a 3rd party 5 year one (edited)
23rd Mar
My LG G2 is amazing and has been fault free in the nearly 2 years I’ve owned it.

Not saying you’ve not had a bad experience or two but generally people shout about a bad experience, and rarely about a good one.

Trip advisor is a great example of this. (edited)
24th Mar
e rating tho
24th Mar
You'll find most American Fridge Freezers are E rated , some are even F, and some D's and I've seen 1 C.

Does anyone know when this offer ends ?

I have a different model to this with an ice maker (not plumbed) and it’s been great. Waaay better quality than their high end washers/dishwashers etc which are flimsy plastic (sent those back). It is metal all over (other than the glass window) you would think moving it would be a nightmare and ofcourse it’s heavy but once in the room, I could push it easily with one finger and then once in position put the feet down ( I was very surprised by this.)

I don’t really use the instaview feature much other than to show people the fridge but it is very cool, however the glass window is a game changer for just grabbing milk, can of drink, ketchup etc. It’s light and easy to open without needing to open the whole door. Convenient and saves energy.

I would recommend it but I could not recommend their other appliances which is worrisome to a degree. We wanted one brand to match and ended up with a mix. I wouldn't want to have a problem with LG as they have been less than helpful with even the simplest of enquiries when we were looking to buy using a discount code that they couldn’t/wouldn’t apply and purchased elsewhere in the end
because it’s what we wanted.
23rd Mar
Be careful as there is a big issue with LG fridges in the states. Not sure if this is one of the fridges affected. They are refusing to repair or refund and are blaming the cardboard box for the issues nbcbayarea.com/inv…p=1 (edited)
22nd Mar
oh that looks real nice, shame i have no space.
22nd Mar
Wrong country for this, country where the whole house is size of american garage, american says its all where it belongs

For UK, buy one from sylvanian family home furniture series (edited)
22nd Mar
You are so right! As a delivery driver for AO these things drive me mad. We have to remove doors from the machines and sometimes doors in peoples houses just to get them in. Our houses aren’t designed for these big machines. Clues in the name-American!
22nd Mar
I'm not sure if my old LG fridge is anything to go by. It's coming on 25 years old. Moved house with me 6 times in that time. The damn thing is built like a tank. I've wanted to change it to these for yonks but the wife said if it ain't broke, why change it?!??!
22nd Mar
We've got an 18 year old LG American Fridge Freezer . Still going strong but since we've moved house it's now located in the kitchen , used to live in garage, looking a bit tired so sadly we are going to replace.
28th Mar
Thanks OP, but for me the whole point of an American style Frig/freezer is it must have a water/drinks snd ice dispenser.
29th Mar
Interesting, I'm not a fan of the cold water or ice so I went for this one
22nd Mar
What a ridiculous, stupid, half arsed, expensive feature. Do I want it? Absolutely.
22nd Mar
...but will you get it? ...no

Mr Window shopper (edited)
23rd Mar
Doesn't have a ice-water dispenser, useless
23rd Mar
just buy 35p 2L bottles of water from supermarket and pour, save yourself another £800 doing that
23rd Mar
Wow, now you have to tidy your fridge before you have guests round .
22nd Mar
Great fridge, great price
22nd Mar
Looks a pretty dysfunctional design where stuff is placed
23rd Mar
This is an E rated fridge and there is nothing "Super Efficient" about it. It's also made in China which makes me wonder about how long things will last.
23rd Mar
Where are they normally made?
23rd Mar
No ice / water dispenser, but for this price point even on sale can't look passed samsung and 5 years included.
23rd Mar
Coolest fridge ever IMO.
23rd Mar
At this price .....Its worth the risk ! Thanks Op

Cant even get a small sofa into british homes... even new builds for that matter, but atleast new builds are a bit better in terms of the main entrance door size.

True
22nd Mar
amazing price. i’ve just had the ice maker matt black delivered monday at double the price. gutted
23rd Mar
What removal company wouldn't move a double fridge A bankrupt one probably.
22nd Mar
So tempting
22nd Mar
Tempting, but i dont think this would even fit in my house

Do they normally take the doors off?
22nd Mar
Yes. And then we very nearly had another issue where we almost couldn't stand it up in the kitchen - having brought it in on its side, as we righted it, there was about 2mm clearance from the kitchen ceiling as it tipped up... not looking forward to moving it if and when we move house!
22nd Mar
America style fridge freezers like this (also known as a side-by-side) really do not have that much freezer capacity, because modern versions have so much insulation in them it leaves little room for contents.
Usually the only reason to get one is for the ice maker/crusher and this does not have one.

Instaview is nothing more than a gimmick. You can still see the contents with the screen switched off when you look up close. It also means the fridge has less insulation than a standard version, which cannot be a good thing. Glass will expels both hot and cold, which makes the front less efficient.
23rd Mar
Yes they look great but aren't very functional. I've long wanted one but....
23rd Mar
Would love this
23rd Mar
bigger than my house and colder in summer. heat.

Is it me, or do the pics show storage of uncooked pasta in the freezer door compartment
