Don't get LG/Samsung. Kitchen Aide makes some awesome stuff.

Agree on LG/Samsung. The worst. We’ve had good experiences with Kenmore fridges.

Yeah should probably be a 20 Amp dedicated breaker, if it isn't already.

Just have to make sure it's 12 gauge wire and not 14, then you would need a 15

I like my Samsung. I don't use the ice maker all that much though

I have no opinion of any brand of fridge, and find it strange some do

When you get burned on an expensive item you have to replace early you

LG fridges are the worst, I tell anyone who asks.

I'm very happy with my LG fridge

Busiturtle

I loved mine too, the guy who came out to fix it said 80% of his work is on LG

Do not get LG fridges they are notorious for having compressor failures,

Cabadapeste

Mine went out. They did replace the compressor, but I am not confident in their products.

We have a whirlpool French door model. We bought the same one when we moved.

Our LG is trash. I miss my Cafe from our previous home. That was LEGIT.

Has your wiring to the house been updated? What's the total load capacity? Has your fuse box been updated?

DJROSS

The house is 5 year old.

I'm not making any assumptions. I would check anyway.. new builds doesn't mean built to standard.

DJROSS

OK. I'll have it checked.
