Prepare large meals for your family or guests using this LG electric range, which features 5 cooktop elements and a 6.3 cu. ft. oven that allow you to cook various dishes simultaneously. Quickly cook recipes while ensuring food is evenly heated thanks to the True Convection system. In order to accommodate your busy schedule, you can preset the oven start time up to 12 hours in advance using the delay-bake feature.

I really wanted to give this range 5 stars, because it's actually a very nice range -- it's super quiet, cooks food as you would expect it to, and looks great. And the purple ceramic coating on the inside not only looks nice, but it's very easy to wipe off any spills. So why didn't I give it 5 stars? First, the annoying music chimes. When the oven heats up to the predetermined temperature, the oven starts playing a 10 or 15 second long song that reminds me of the ice cream truck driving around the neighborhood when I was a kid. Its fine once or twice, but I got tired of hearing that music pretty quick, so I looked in the manual for a way to turn it off. Well, the folks at LG, in their infinite wisdom, decided that it was either all sounds or no sounds. You can't turn off the music without muting the entire stove. And the second reason I gave it 4 stars was the buttons to turn on the burners. They are all digital buttons, not traditional knobs. So when you want to turn one of the burners on, you press and hold the "on" button, then toggle up or down to get to the desired temperature (which is NOT low, simmer, medium, medium-high, high..........its 1,1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, etc.) It would be a much better design to have traditional knobs that you can turn to the correct temperature. My previous Samsung range had knobs, and it worked better.

A few glitches, but not a horrible fridge
on November 13, 2014

I purchased this refrigerator in February 2014 based upon previous reviews and the LG brand having a good reputation for reliability. The refrigerator was delivered and set up by Best Buy, and there were no issues initially. The refrigerator has cooled properly the entire time, and the fit and finish is pretty good. But within a few weeks, we found that the ice dispenser would jam when trying to get crushed ice. Also, I began to notice that the refrigerator would make loud groaning noises every once in awhile. Finally, the water dispenser button on the top right corner of the control panel is a flawed design, and it WILL stick at some point leaving your floor flooded until you can unstick it. I called Geek Squad to come out; they discovered that the internals of the ice cube "bucket" were broken, thus causing the crushed ice to not dispense. They also replaced the entire front control panel, as the repair technician told me this button sticking was a common problem with this LG refrigerator. He basically said 'don't use that little button on the top right corner'. Well a month later, we had relatives staying at our house, and one of them pressed that little water button. Flooded floor again. Geek Squad is coming out to replace the front control panel once again. And the refrigerator is still making those groaning noises, but Geek Squad says they can't determine the source of the noise. If I have another problem with this refrigerator, I'm going to try to have it replaced with something else under the "lemon" policy. Other than the water/ice dispenser issues, Its not a bad refrigerator. Just make sure you get the 5 year extended warranty.

My new range has not been delivered yet. Can I use my old 3 wire power cord on the new range which should have a 4 wire connection on the back?
You will need either a 3-prong or 4-prong power cord, depending on the type of outlet your residence has. If your house was built prior to 1996, its probably a 3-prong outlet. If it was built 1996 or later, its probably a 4-prong outlet. Check first. If you're installing a 3-prong cord on this stove, there is a little pre-installed copper jumper across two of the contacts on the back of the range. If you're installing a 4-prong cord, you remove the jumper and connect the 4 wires to the 4 contacts. The installation manual explains it pretty well.

What is the best way to clean the outside of this product without causing streaking?
You need to get a can of stainless steel polish from somewhere like Target or the grocery store. I use Weiman brand. Its in a can that looks just like Pledge or Endust, in the cleaning aisle. Spray it on the fridge and wipe with a cloth or paper towel. Does a very good job of getting rid of fingerprints and smudges, and protects the stainless steel surface.

Door way clearance in house
The doorways in my home are 30" during installation will the movers remove the new refrigerator doors to move it into place or will I need to just find a different appliance? I see in the specs that the refrigerator is only about 28" without the doors.
If you're having it delivered and installed by Best Buy, they will remove the doors and get it through your doorway. That's what they did to my refrigerator.
