    We bought a LG that lasted almost a year. Lowe's gave me all my money back. Next bought a GE , it's been good for 5 years so far. So I'd say LG sucks ,Lowe's has a good warranty and GE for me

    For something like you had, look at parting with close to $1200 in any name. What did it do. Stop running, freezer cold, but fridge warm. Some thing to trouble shoot with due to my daughter recent exp...

    Fridge and freezer both shat the bed over nite. Something was still running but not cooling/ freezing. I'm not a fridge mechanic so I'll see what the local appliance dude says Monday.

    We bought a new GE about a year and a half back. 21.9Cu Ft. Ice maker never did work. We usually try to buy local so we got it a a local Western Auto store. (Don't see them around much any more but we had bought a dryer and a freezer from them already). But when I called about the problem they wouldn't do anything except give me the number for GE. They do full repairs and GE tried to get them to come out but they said no. So we called GE and they sent a guy out and put a new ice maker in it and he then left before seeing if it was ok. It wasn't. So when the guy came back out he determined that the water valve was not opening to let the ice maker fill up. I had already told him that was the problem. He also said that the internal wiring on the fridge was defective and there was no replaceable part to fix it. So GE ended up giving me a refund for the full purchase price. Was going to go buy another new fridge but the wife said that she didn't want one, that for the little ice she uses she would just use ice trays.
    I was talking to a guy the other day and he is going to come look at it and see if he can maybe fix it. No charge if he can't. Supposed to come out after i get back from a short vacation I'm leaving on next week.

    Go in Lowes. Look and kinda decide by yourself/. Down here, usually they give 5% off if you buy today (Small sign on stub sitting around there somewhere.) when you get to the deal and ask for and get the 5, mumble about the financing that much.

    (If you do not have a Lowes credit card account)

    He will come thru with... if you open a new account, (more % off) a year to pay, NO INTEREST. You are only riding the reduced price and terms, you do not want to put anything (even a nail) on that account. If you do, it activates and cranks up mo pay and interest. Just ride the deal down as low as you can get him.
    Now, two things on this. Youi have the fridge installed and working and time to check it out. It blow in a month or so, you are in control.
    Get it, load it, use it and sit tight. Put payment money in a 9 month CD. If all is well, when they notify you the CD is mature, cash it out, pay Mr. Lowes. happy ending.

    This is from the man who Lowes replaced $4k of flooring and it installation for poor installation. Hall and den and DR done twice. There was weeping and wailing and then scoop up the flooring and redo. Store mgr came to inspect. Mrs Johnson.. (5' 2.5") asked him if he would be
    satisfied to see that floor in his own home. He foolishly said "Why yes..." She smiled and said. Then come get it., we are not having it.
    A few days later a nice intelligent lady drove over from Tuscaloosa, AL and walked in, looked over the den and hall, turned and asked. What will it take to make this right. We said a new floor, properly laid. She turned to the sales rep with her and said. Order the new floor. Get a floor man to install. Any problem with getting the materials, call me. You just have to get above the store manager at a Lowes to get things done.
