I found a subzero a used bi42 sub zero being sold by a rich family looking to redo their kitchen. Paid 400 for the fridge and 700 for delivery. Absolutely the best decision ever. 1100 for a current model sub zero. I saved over 90%.
Same here, my kitchenaid SXS from 2005 is still chugging along with no issues save for replacing the ice maker and having to send the discontinued control board next to the inverter off for rebuild to corecentric when the fan relay fails. The newer kitchenaids with the ice maker mounted on the door suffer from the wire in the door hinge breaking ruining the entire door and refrigerant leaks from the fresh food evaporator...trash design replaced one on the greatest.
2:12 I can confirm here what Steve is exactly correct. I had a ~7 year old LG fridge and the compressor failed. I got one about 4 years ago and it has been rock solid even in the garage in Arizona.
I've had the LG Counter depth Max for a year and a half, I have the most basic because I wanted the clean front. It has been great. Fit wasn't an issue because the kitchen designer designed for it. The two minor issues are I have one person in the house who cannot seem to close the freezer to save their life. So once a month I deal with the fridge getting too warm, things getting soft and refreezing. I've begged, I've cried, I've asked the adult child to make sure they close the freezer it still happens. I chalk that up to user incompetence. I also struggle to store anything tall anywhere but the door. Overall I'm very satisfied. I do wish I could buy different handles. All our other appliances have tube style handles, LG only has the bow style at this level. Their SKS has tube handles.
We’ve had the LG Max for about a month now. Overall we like it, though it’s louder than our old Whirlpool and the filtered water isn’t chilled like our whirlpool was.
Do you still like your LG Max? I am about to order new appliances and number one on my list the Signature brand which is the same as your refrigerator...thanks in advance!
Love the videos -- thank you! Please consider one recommending refrigerators for smaller (older) kitchens (i.e., in the ballpark of 16-18 cu ft; 30 inch wide; 68 inch tall). With all the supersizing, these are a challenge to find from top, reliable manufacturers!
Are you sure Bosch still offers the Pro Handles? I can’t find this anywhere, we hate the modern handle and want the Pro Handles on the 800. Let us know if you have any insight where to get the Pro Handles for the Bosch B36CT80SNS
i'm doing new construction. if i get an lg counter depth max and place it in the kitchen against a side wall, what should the wall length be so that i can still open the door. i mentioned this to my builder, and he is doing a 28" wall, but it sounds like it should be shorter to allow the doors to open. if so, what should the length be? 27" ?
I'm wondering if you or anyone can answer this. We have an LG french door fridge that freezes in the refrigerator compartment. Granted this is 5 years old or so, but this makes me not to want to buy another LG fridge, but you say they are now reliable. Should we put this brand back on our list?
How can i get some guidance from you because I lol'd when I went to a local appliance dealer (not Yale and not in your state) and had the worker give me a quote that was full of errors. After opening that 48" SubZero or the Fisker & Paykel large doors with the huge exposed hinges really made me feel great. Im thinking of waiting for Memorial Day sales to see if I can pick up a Wolf+Fridge+Bosch DW+ undercounter fridge/wine rack.
We moved into a home with a fancy (and expensive) smart hub Samsung fridge that was only about 3 years old and we have had nothing but NIGHTMARES with it. We had the predictable issues with the ice maker that all Samsung fridges of that era had with the in-refrigerator ice makers leading to class action suits against the company, which they did ultimately fix at no cost to us. Then the compressor went on it after only 1 year of living in the home, and I can confirm getting service on this fridge has been a massive issue. We finally were able to get someone out to repair it last winter at a $500 cost to us, and surprise surprise, it has been only 10 months and the compressor is failing again. I can't wait to get rid of this thing, which we have no choice but to do. I am terrified to make a bad choice when selecting a fridge after the nightmare we have had with this, but I will NEVER purchase a Samsung appliance of any kind after the issues we've had.
The fact you recommended anything LG makes me suspicious of anything you have to say. Honestly, they are the WORST appliances on the market. They have been SUED for it. They are crap.
Really? They were sued for refrigerators made 2014-2017. Indiana just launched another. However, their compressors need service far less than the others. That doesnt make them better...just less worse, because they all lack service to fix any issues
@@YaleAppliance1 Hey thanks for replying. If a counter depth refrigerator for 24” counters, then a required 2” behind the refrigerator, what’s the depth I should be looking for? Newest LG is 2” extended depth beyond my current LG 2017 model. Narrow entry to kitchen. Not sure where to look next.
Some supposedly counter depth are not really counter depth. Who can trust LG? To claim they are reliable now is hard to believe. There are still new lawsuits being filed, on the NextDoor app, I've seen more complaints about new LG and Samsung refrigerators than any other models.
I hear ya....but in order to not drive yourself craze, way more Samsung and LG is sold than any other brand. You have to look at service percentages. We obsess over service because it costs so much. Then, the industry has a handling issue. delivery and warehousing cause some of the problem as well. I feel your pain, but your pain will be as bad if not worse with most of the other brands.
*SOOOOO* much product at the moment really need a showroom to manifest the product plus physical sales people on the floor now. #panda_fridge has failed! #reno_911
Sadly, I was not paid for this...You may want to ask other channels how many warranty calls they have done or even service calls. We performed 33,000 last year and well over 100,000 over the last 3 years and probably over a 1 million since I started service I loathe Samsung, BTW for other reasons...but I am not going to mislead anyone about their initial quality

I got the Bosch, no issues, feels quality.
Yes, you did a great job explaining everything in the video. I didn't hear everything in the video but I agreed with everything I heard. Thanks
I have a Kitchen Aid Counter Depth 24.5cuft 72" tall from 2006 and still working fine.
Built in the olden days, not like they are built today.

The LG can alert you via the app if the door is left open. As you said though, you still need the (adult?) child to actually close it still
I have seen reports online about inadequate door temperatures ( no Adult child involved - lol I feel your pain )

Seems to be a thing for LG water dispensers. Mine only cools the first glass. Everything else is warm.

Love your very informative videos. I'm building a new house and have learned a LOT from you folks.
Anything with bottom freezer is a maintenance nightmare with the roller and track but on the flip side, no through the door ice dispenser.
Thank you Steve. Well done.

In term or reliability (or expected), how would you sort them?
LG is number 1, Bosch is number 2
fisher and paykel makes great reliable fridges.

Its the best available...which isnt saying much
What do you guys think of Bertazzoni fridges?
I think you can do better...
Why does your group not carry the Frigidaire Gallery? Would love to hear your input.
Good question....I dont think they have anything that outstanding that compels us to carry it
Some of the LG Max refrigerators have an ice-maker in the door. This is a huge problem for the Samsung fridge I know. Is it an issue for the LG Max?
Its an issues for every manufacturer
What about blue star ?
No.....Made by Beko.

Who has 36” deep counters?

I wouldn’t trust LG yet. Time will tell. Their studio line looks good, but it’s too early to tell longevity yet.
Where are they made, that is the quality nightmare.
Depends...Korea, China, US
