Q: QuestionCan you remove and/or turn off the ice maker to have more space in the freezer. Also I don't have a water connection but I'm really interested in this refrigerator.

Asked 9 years ago by rkco25.

• A:Answer You can turn the ice maker off and because it is mounted high in the bottom freezer, it does not take up much space at all. It is important, however, that you remember to turn the ice make switch to the off position if its not hooked up, otherwise you might burn the motor out. We also did not need an ice maker. You will not be disappointed in this refrigerator, We are very happy with our choice.

Q: QuestionAre the glass shelves strong enough to support a gallon of milk? I realize I will have to adjust the shelf for height. I don't want to store milk in the door.

Asked 7 years ago by Adn17.

• A:Answer A gallon or two of milk, yes. But, not several gallons. Here is what I said on this topic in my full review: The tempered glass shelves are so wide (there is no divider. they span across the entire width of fridge), that they bow significantly under weight. OK to put a gallon jug on each side closest to the rail support. But, you will get bowing if placed in center. I put qty 8 gallon jugs on the bottom shelf with no problem. But, this is also my beer fridge. So, what I did was created support "beams" that integrated the middle glass shelf with the top glass shelf so the weight of all the beer bottles was distributed between the two shelves to eliminate (or at least drastically reduce) the bow of the top shelf. Pic attached for reference. LG should beef-up the thickness on the shelves or another alternative to add much more rigidity to them.

Asked 8 years ago by Joan.

• A:Answer Yes it is extremely quiet. The only time we really hear it is when the ice maker fills and the ice cubes drop.

Q: QuestionDo fingerprints show a lot on this refrigerator? How easy is it to clean the fingerprints?

Asked 8 years ago by Callie.

• A:Answer Here's my take on fingerprints because this was a huge concern of mind as well. With a family of six creating heavy traffic in and out of our kitchen, fingerprints will definitely arise with any polish SS material but every since I bought the Weiman's 22 oz Stainless steel cleaner and polish spray for $7.99. Wiping fingerprints away is a breeze now and the spray seems to apply a protective coating which lessens both the prints and cleaning afterwards.

Q: QuestionHow loud is it? I mean decibels.

Asked 6 years ago by JohnK.

• A:Answer My phone app registers 43dba when the compressor runs while standing one step back from the fridge. The fans I can only hear if I put my ear on the side of the fridge and listen. Mine is not in a cabinet or anything that contains sound proofing, so you may be able to get it a little lower then that with a better space. Overall I can hear the compressor slightly while in the kitchen, but do not find it bothersome or distracting. Outside of the kitchen I cannot hear it. Noise was my number 1 priority when buying a fridge. I have found the compressor does not run a whole lot. When it’s off the unit is 100% silent. Hope that helps.

Q: QuestionDoes the bottom freezer drawer pull all the way out? Our doors are 32 and we will need to remove door and freezer to get it in the house.

Asked 8 years ago by Pancho.

• A:Answer Yes, Pancho, the freezer door, sliding drawer and bin comes out in one piece by simply removing 2 phillips head screws. It takes a moment to do and causes no damage whatsoever. Remove the 2 screws, pull open the door and slightly lift if to disengage from the runners. To replace the unit there are small flanges to assure that it is in the correct place. Very, very easy to do.

Q: QuestionWhat is the width with the door open?

Asked 8 years ago by Joybert.

• A:Answer The door is on a nice offset hinge so that when it opens it adds, probably, less than a 1/2 inch to the width. However, the door has a curve to the front surface, and of course, the handle. Keep those facts in mind as I am not sure how much clearance you require. Look at the LG website for very complete dimensions. I know that I fit mine into a pre-existing space which was very tight in all dimensions. I checked their website and they have all the dimensions - doors open/closed, recommended clearance, hinge clearance, etc. Very complete specs are available.

• A:Answer Pretty quiet until the ice drops. Otherwise, much quieter than my old one.
