Buy Liebherr Refrigerator UB501
My experiences with Liebherr are terrible. Unable to get a service person to repair refrigerator. Refrigerator was 6,500.00 and have constant problems. Freezer is full of ice. Cannot adjust the temperature in the freezer. No help with any problems and no service available. Gerhards Store where we purchased this is no better.
I purchased a new top-of-the-line Liebherr Refrigerator in 2011. It has been the worst purchase I have ever made. The refrigerator has started falling apart, it is so poorly made. When I called Liebherr Customer Service, I got more excuses and no help whatsoever. Time to get rid of this and get a Sub-Zero.
Hi, I am Vrunda, I purchased a Duo 350 Ltrs Fridge from Liebherr Brand, its nice Cooling, Best Quality compare to any brand, Previously I used LG, My friend is suggested to take this brand, fridge cooling performance superb & accessories, moon cut glass flexibility is excellence compare to my previous fridge. I am suggesting you all, its very good to take.
I am fully satisfied with refrigerator. I am first customer to buy this model fridge in Hyderabad. I was little confused initially to go beyond LG and Samsung but by knowing features of Liebherr model like easy fresh technology, interior and exterior look, I impressed and finally made my decision to buy. I have been using this from last 8 months, I am happy and never had any issues. My suggestion to GO FOR IT. Thanks, Naga.
Built quality and the design is an extraordinary when compare to other brands.. I bought Liebherr tcss2620 in the year of 2018.. from harsha electronics Mangalore. Working good and the flat design is very attractive. Will definitely give your kitchen a premium look, when comparing other brands it quite expensive but worth the money you are going to pay. Shelfs are easily adjustable and made my routine easier.. Loved this refrigerator. If you guys are planning to buy a refrigerator 200% you can go for liebherr and its a German originated company and also I would suggest my friends and family, thank you liebherr.
We are a couple of seniors and easy on our appliances. We paid a lot of money ($4,706.31) in 2009 for French doors, 2 freezer drawer model Liebherr refrigerator. We loved the look and features showing in and out. Within a few short months, the insides’ starting falling apart. The drawer tracks kept falling off and the milk shelf restraints broke loose. Just five years later, just after the warranty was done, the inside of the refrigerator part started freezing up and frost formed all over the back wall. We hassled back and forth with Customer Service and they finally agreed to send us a part (Evap Motor). We had to pay to have it installed. Now we have it set at 40 degrees, and it still freezes some foods. I am so unhappy with this product and would not recommend it to anyone.
This is the most expensive fridge freezer we have ever purchased and it is rubbish. It doesnt seem to freeze food correctly and if I try to freeze an unfrozen item it can take 2 days to become solid. The warning buzzer is VERY ANNOYING, it is like a race against the clock to put shopping away. I just hate it, I wish I had never seen this make in Currys and stuck with the Whirlpool I had for years and just replaced the broken shelves.
Hi guys, LIEBHERR Refrigerator is a good brand in our India because its a Germany brand and hes cooling and hes service. I used LG and Samsung fridge but not LIEBHERR Refrigerator is best compared to others brand.
The 24 Liebherr refrigerator that came with the apartment I purchased is a piece of junk! It was just about 5 years old when the original owner paid over $600 in repair costs over 2 repair visits... Just a few months later I needed to replace the sensor for another $500. Now it is only 2 months later and once again the refrigerator is not maintaining cold temperature. I refuse to put another nickel into this terrible appliance and will have to replace it. Liebherr service was not at all accommodating! All they were willing to do was give me the names of authorized service companies which charge $200 just to walk in the door.
In July of 2014, the ice maker on my Liebherr stopped working. Annoying, but not unexpected. I just let it go. Then, not two months later, the freezer stopped working. Had a Liebherr referred repairman out to determine the temperature sensor was no longer working. As of now (November!), still no parts, no sign of parts, and now the refrigerator is not working. Liebherr has been HORRIBLE in trying to resolve this issue. Im selling the house and am ending up having to purchase a brand new unit. Liebherr, never again!
Model HC 2062, purchased in 2012, is a nice size, double doors, 2 freezer doors below, overall a nice design. We first became annoyed when the ice maker would not keep up with demand. Just after the 2-year warranty expired, the guts of the ice maker fell into the ice tray. $250 for replacement parts & labor (10 minutes). The explanation of what caused the damage is unbelievable. If you happen to open the freezer drawer when the ice reader is engaged, you can pull the guts out, which is exactly what happened. The air filter light has been on for 9 months, but its totally inaccessible unless you are good at lying on the floor and holding a screwdriver with your teeth. High-price fridge for inducing a regular headache.
Absurdly constructed product that has no customer service backing, arrogant customer service full of lies about the quality of the product. A total waste of money full of headache. Ive never experienced any product so cruelly deceptive backed by con men and women who represent this companys customer service. Horrible workmanship, design, and engineering. The worst ever. Stay far away from this mess.Im the unlucky guy who was sold a bag of goods from kitchen designer regarding the Liebherr C-1650 refrigerator, freezer with ice maker. I bought eight of them in 2009 and I could have bought two very nice new cars at that time for the same price. They are EXTREMELY expensive, horribly constructed appliances. Its beyond belief how horrible they are. My maintenance man recently said, a person could live off what you spend on repairs for those refrigerators. In nine years each ice maker has been replaced at least three times! There are constantly issues. Theres one now that has a brand new ice maker in it that we cant get to produce ice for six months now.
@3500 each for a 24 counter depth freezer and ref (HF 861), my client could have gotten a used GE or LG Freezer. The weather stripping is coming off for the second time, Icemaker has never worked. We (after a full replacement) and their customer service line is dreadful, each time I call they want me to try a new troubleshooting step. Liebherr just changed their policy on repairs so no more guarantee on their products. Save yourself time and money and buy literally any other brand.
I had purchased a Liebherr refrigerator on April 9th and the freezer didnt work from the day 1. I called the customer service; it took them 2 weeks to get the technician in. They had to order the parts and it took them another week and a half. The freezer stopped working in 2 weeks again. I called them; the technician showed up in a week and a half and said the compressor and 2 other parts need to ordered and it was back ordered from Germany. I called the complaint department and they said they will replace the unit. From April 9 (today is June 26th), I have been calling and the replacement company, Alamo, said the unit is back ordered. I called the Liebherr customer service again and they told me to speak to a supervisor at Alamo which I did and he said they got the unit and they will ship it to the servicer. I have a family of 6 and my son has very severe allergy problem and we always stock food for him. Here I am without a refrigerator since April the 9th. It is very frustrating and I would not recommend anyone to go with this brand. Its is wastage of money.
Purchased both units (Built in refrigerator and freezer) in December of 2011. Problems started right away with inconsistent temperatures in the refrigerator, after service calls it was never resolved. We bought a 5 year extended warranty for both machines, it is a good thing we did. Now three years later the freezer ice maker has been replaced and I am sure it will need to be again. The refrigerator has never cooled properly but as of late forms heavy ice on the back to a point that the drawers cannot close which means that the door will not close. After several service calls the ice problem may be resolved but the inside temperature is now never higher 30 degrees f., and you cannot turn it off. If you want it to stop you must unplug it, no small task with a built in. After living with these very badly built machines for the last three years I truly believe that the only place that you will get less for your money is with a speeding ticket. Having owned Sub Zero for many trouble free years in the past, I can assure you that they will get our business next time.
You dont happen to buy a refrigerator everyday. So I happen to visit the Vijay sales outlet with my wife for searching a new one and happen to see this new name Liebherr. The sales guy convinced me that the CNPef 4516 is the latest entrant in the market, however after some research and history it so happens that they have only been manufacturing refrigerators. So we decided to get it home. Its certainly unlike your regular refrigerator where its premium reflects on it being installed. A quick billing and a easy installation is all it took to bestow its presence in my kitchen, the cooling has been magnificent since day 1 and in a city like Pune where the heat can get extreme this refrigerator doesnt let you down. The easy to store vegetable bins and the cooling are the very fact that it does its job well. The freezer is different than others and can go up to -32 with the super frost is amazing.
In 16/09/2010 - 4 years ago I purchased SBSes 7353 Premium BioFresh NoFrost Liebherr Refrigerator. I knew (I thought) that it is very high quality and user friendly. And despite the high price relative to other brands I bought it. But week ago the BioFresh began to lose temperature. I called to local service and technician comes to check it. As he says there is a gas leak in the pipe located in the refrigerator body. And there is no way to fix it. The only option is exchange whole side (BioFresh and Freezer). And I need to buy it, which is half of whole refrigerator price that is only $1400! Another words after 4 years of use I need to buy new refrigerator!!! After that no response from customer service. No response for mails.
I have a single door model, cs 1301, 5 yrs. old. Recently the freezer temp. became erratic and the alarm kept going off. Our food was not affected and stayed frozen. A week ago, a service tech found a build up of ice behind the panel that is behind the freezer drawers. He was able to remove the ice and the freezer seemed OK. However the temps. continue to jump up and down and sometimes the alarm triggers at temps of 6 or 11 above. The call cost $190.I reported the temperature readings to the service who reported back with a quote of $600 to replace the freezer components. I do not know how to proceed at this point: the problem needs to be corrected but I will be nearing $1000 in service calls. Do I buy a new refrigerator or put more money into the current one? This Liebherr model is the only refrig I know of that fits the space in my small kitchen.
I have owned a Liebherr fridge since 2012. The refrigeration has generally been good. Temperature is maintained in both compartments. The main issues, and there have been many, are structural as well as electronic. The plastic shelves have cracked as have the freezer bins. The ice maker fell apart and had to be replaced..The tracks on the two freezer drawers often get stuck. The main control panel had to be replaced. The unit beeps constantly and no one has had a solution. I have had to spend over $2000 on service calls and parts replacements. Buyer beware!
I had already heard about the brand Liebherr as my brother is working at Germany. When we wanted a refrigerator to our house, my brother strongly suggest me to get a liebherr refrigerator. So went in search for it and got one. Superb product, looks premium.
I was aware of the brand Liebherr. Came across the brand had launched refrigerator here in India since few years. I had got good review from a friend of mine and finally got one. Good refrigerator great space, quality. Loved the product.
Model SBS 7053, freezer + wine compartment just worked 2 years. Apparently its a bad fabrication, it has a small gas leak somewhere deep in the foam... IRREPARABLE!! Facts: 2 months after warranty time ended the compressor was running 24/24 7/7 with alarm sound and bad cold. Technical service wanted to sell expensive electronic card, but they knew it was not that of course!! I did complain. At the end Liebherr offered me a 35% discount on buying a new side by side!!!!! They dont admit its a hidden defect!! 2 years only!!!! Can you believe that?? I bought it in 2007, 2009 broken... Use refrigerator only since then. 2015 have a gas (R600a) refill with an independent technician, did work again for 24 hours.Advice Liebherrs people???? This is obviously a defective product with hidden defects. You have to give a working product, well made and in accordance with your reputation... As you dont agree to recognise it, I will continuously speak of my bad experience on social media.
I found Liebherrs Facebook site (for their excavating equipment) and wrote them a nasty note saying I hoped their excavating stuff worked better than their fridge/freezers. I heard back from them immediately! So I sent them the entire story. They got in touch with the store it was purchased from and who did the repairs. Liebhherr agreed to pay for all parts/labor for repairs. It seems that all the freon had leaked out! Ive never heard of this in some 50 years of owning fridges of various makes and ages. Their repair people couldnt even find where the leak was so Liebherr replaced the entire unit (and as they had changed the dimensions since the original unit was purchased, they also replaced the fridge part). So Im satisfied, but it took public shaming on FB to get anything done. However, I would never recommend their fridge/freezers to anyone. Dont know about their excavating equipment.
I bought Liebherr refrigerator 2 years back and now every part of it ask maintenance every after 2-3 month. For me its waste of money because if I could bought any Local Indian brand it would be more convenient for me and long lasting. Never go for Liebherr.
Storing vegetables and fruits is what one needs and in a city you need to store. I chose Liebherr as its flexible that has abundant space options without having to compromise. The features are apt to store the seafood and the fresh veggies for a long time. The freezer stocks up the cold cuts with ease for a long period of time. I have been happy since a while as its worked well if space is whats required.
Refrigerator leaks water all over my food. Repairman just left after explaining that if anything touches the interior back walls of the refrigerator it will leak water. Cant be fixed. So now I have to buy a new refrigerator. Wished I had read all the negative reviews before spending the big bucks.
It has been a good experience with this refrigerator. No starting trouble was felt when we started using it. It is easy to maintain the refrigerator. Cleaning wasnt a big problem. Overall a good refrigerator.
Very good product and special service. Interior of the fridge is very beautiful and when door open got alarm sound. I very like it and I suggest to our family and friends. Very secured covering back grills.
After we moved into our new dream house, we wanted to get a premium refrigerator. Our close friend who have suggested me Liebherr. So we went to the shop and we had purchased liebherr easy fresh model and we found it best in quality. Loved the product
Im having the same problems and Im based in Athens. Inox Liebherr fridge now useless. Can you send me any contact details (email) you may have, preferably from the people in Germany?
We recently bought the Liebherr TCb2640 which eases the use of our storage as a family of 2. The spice box has been helpful to make life easy in storing spices and so has the vegetable sorter system. Its compact design and the the size fits in the space and kitchen. The shelves are easy to adjust making some space at the last minute enables it to double up the ease to store more. The installation took place in short duration of time and serviced well by the engineer. I thoroughly recommend the same if youre looking for a compact refrigerator with fully added features.
This refrigerator has destroyed more food than the plague. It has the hardest time closing and it turns off if the door censors indicate the door isnt closed. Several times, I have not been home for days and I get home and everything in the Liebherr refrigerator is rotten, lost, defrosted, warm, in shape to throw out. Resetting the temperature to get it to work is as easy as launching the space shuttle. One almost needs to be an electrical engineer to re-set the temperature settings. I tried to print out the manual from their site and I have 21 pages of gibberish. I still havent been able to turn the freezer back on and I am not sure the refrigerator is working yet, as I type. If I wasnt a renter, I would get a new unit, but not a Liebherr. I have lost over $500 of food in the freezer. I guess I was stupid enough to fill it after losing everything before. If you buy one of their units, you are crazy.
Why would anyone choose to buy these expensive contraptions? Liebherr website offers no possibility to register a complaint or ask for help... other than through the service people who in this case are part of the problem. Six weeks without a functioning refrigerator last summer... and no response much less remedial action!!! We naively asked Liebherr via service-appliances.us@liebherr.com (repeatedly) and via team.online team.online@liebherr.com or any suggestions on how to avoid these problems... or at least have them fixed much faster and reasonably. The house we bought a year ago in Washington DC came with a three-piece Liehberr appliance: refrigerator, freezer and wine cooler. So far the only one that has worked well is the least useful one the wine cooler. Please escalate this because it must not be a normal situation... otherwise why would anyone would buy a Liebherr refrigerator? If our problems are not fixed definitively I will certainly be speaking loudly and negatively about Liehberr. Soon after we moved in the refrigerator (a large premium unit serial number 40168030909984 and service ref. **) became a freezer -- resulting a wastage of food and the separate freezer stopped producing ice. A repairman from M&M came promptly diagnosed a sensor problem for the refrigerator -- ordered the part (which took weeks to arrive) and then returned to fix the problem (two service calls and parts charged, of course).The same problem occurred nine months later. The refrigerator froze our food, the repairman came, charged to diagnose a sensor problem, ordered the part and we have had two missed appointments to install it (once they came within the agreed time window but without the promised 30 minute warning and missed us; the second time -- a week later -- they called within the agreed window... just to say that there was an emergency and they would not be able to come for another week!). So the refrigerator is prone to problems and the maintenance system seems to boil down to just one person who handles Liebherr and a company that never has any parts in stock. As for the freezer the solution seemed quite involved and expensive and we decided not to bother (...again, what does this say about Liebherr products and service?)
The worst purchase I have ever made. I write to advise consumers to avoid Liebherr fridge freezers at all costs. I purchased a Liebherr fridge for my daughter in October 2016 and my daughter has been experiencing problems ever since. The fridge had never run at the proper temperature. The temperature is never constant and is always below 38F, it is closer to 50 and lower. We have been told that there is nothing wrong with the fridge. Now we have been told to keep the fridge-freezer at the highest setting at all times! The company refuses to accept the fridge-freezer is faulty. My daughter is therefore stuck with a malfunctioning fridge that is unlikely to last much beyond its 2-year guarantee.
Terrible terrible terrible. Two times I was fooled purchasing their refrigerators, no one helps you, no service, just the worst. Im out hundreds in food & service techs. Please, redo your kitchen if you must, DO NOT PURCHASE, ever!
I shamefully admit I bought 2 Liebherr fridges in 2009 and 2010. One SBS 7053 and one SBSes 7353 within one year of the other for two separate custom fitted kitchens. Both have had door handles fall off, door seals go rotten, leaking, clogged up drain bucket at the back (how am I supposed to reach that???) ice makers both broken and now both have broken down on the BioFresh/wine fridge sides affecting the freezer. If what I am reading all over the internet is true Liebherr has been selling and ignoring customers all over the world whose refrigerators have all had the same problems. How can they get away with it? It isnt as if this was a bargain fridge that you bought for $500 and can now throw out. Can anyone say class action?
Im seeing all of these horrific reviews and I can only assume that theyre either written by competitors or people who have just had really bad luck. I had a 24 Liebherr in my last place that I bought new and lived with for 5 years until I sold my condo. Ive since moved into a house that happened to have a full-sized integrated Liebherr installed. According to the serial number sticker its almost 10 years old now and is still perfect, silent, and a pleasure to live with. Liebherr has meticulous records on all of its past products so they were able to give this appliances complete history.Apparently in the first year the previous owners had a couple of small issues at the start (a drawer was cracked and the display had a fault) but since then nothing. I dont have any vested interest in Liebherr other than the fact that as an architect I like to specify quality products in my designs and its frustrating to me that so many people take it upon themselves to dump on something and so few ever give positive reports. So heres one at least. (or two, since I can attest for two fridges, and am sort of a repeat customer.)
Bought an expensive Liebherr fridgefreezer in September 2016 which failed whilst we were on holiday 10 months later. So contents ruined and no compensation from Liebherr or Appliance City who we purchased it from. Independent engineer was sent to diagnose problem and was told twice by Liebherr to regas it, even though it was leaking! Surely dangerous and not going to solve the problem at all! So the nice engineer wrote off the fridgefreezer and we have spent 3 weeks trying to get a replacement under the warranty.Many, many phone calls and emails were needed to chase Liebherr and Appliance City. Neither of them would take responsibility for changing it, both trying to delay as much as possible and telling blatant lies about not having it in stock and exceedingly delayed delivery of another month before they could get one to us in the hope we gave up chasing it. New one just arrived... Will have to see how long it lasts! Great style and massive capacity though.
This is my second Liebherr refrigerator after the first one lost all the Freon due to the defective lining. They use aluminum linings which are corroded very fast. They replaced it after two years of trouble. The representative of the brand in Greece made a conciliation and they proposed to sell me a new one. I paid an extra amount of 500€ to receive a newer model which was worth around 800€. Within two years the problems begun! Now it runs for an hour it hardly cools and then the motor stops and doesnt kick in again. No more expensive worthless Liebherr refrigerators for me!!!
Hello. I am Vishwa from Calicut. Liebherr Fridge new 260 liters refrigerator Steel finish is very good. Purchase it looking at German brand. Good quality. Service response is fast and also available on mobile.
We bought a Liebherr 346 litres, 3STCSS3540, double door refrigerator from Reliance digital store in Delhi, on 24 January, 2021 and it conked OFF in July 2021. No cooling. Compressor Shuts down and the Service team had no resolution.!! Then begins a long harassment time with Liebherr Service team, which is so smug that they are just not bothered. They will not pick calls-, not resolve the problem and harass the customers, no end. Untrustworthy, cheats!!!!
Style-wise it is good compared to other brands and performance is also very good compared to my old fridge. Everything stay fresh for long time by eco fresh technology and I 100% recommend to whoever looking to buy new refrigerator.
I had a Liebherr fridge/freezer for about ten years. It packed up so I decided to invest in another one. Bad move. We ordered a fridge/freezer and it was so noisy. Plus, on a number of occasions we thought we had closed the doors but we didnt and the freezer door doesnt have an alarm so our food had started to defrost. On our old model, the alarm went off. The shop that supplied our fridge/freezer came to inspect it and agreed it was very noisy and replaced it. The new one has exactly the same problem - its noisy - its like having a vacuum cleaner on in the corner of the kitchen. Plus, we have left the freezer door open now by mistake on at least four occasions - no alarm - I think you literally have to slam the door shut otherwise it will not close. I am so disappointed with my new Liebherr and I will never buy another product from them.
I bought a stand-alone Liebherr 4 drawer freezer and a Liebherr fridge in 2003/4 (12-13 years) and these have worked perfectly ever since despite never having had a service. I have had a fire in my apartment and the insurance company has written off the fridge and freezer as it would cost more to clean and test them than to buy a replacement. The kitchen was also written off in the fire so I am looking for built-in fridge and freezer for the kitchen (the stand alone units were in a utility room next to my roof terrace; useful for keeping beer cool). Because of my good experience with Liebherr I was thinking of buying this brand.As part of my search I came across the Consumeraffairs.com site with all of the negative reviews and it is certainly giving me some pause for thought. The most common fault appears to be the ice-maker which, as one respondent mentions, we in Europe seldom use. The second most common problem appears to be the doors not shutting properly, especially on the units with two doors, again something less used in Europe. I am a little more worried about the problems with ice forming at the back of the fridge, the number of components that just break, the unreliability of the temperature control and the poor response from Liebherr. Has the quality of Liebherr dropped in recent years. Have the products become more complex and therefore less reliable or is there a specific problem with US based products – I found one review from the Netherlands where I live among all of the US based complaints.
Advanced technology with advanced electrical temperature sensors which provide perfect cooling as per required storage. And special feature like spice box to store our spice to avoid moisture or aroma of spices.
I am using Liebherr 220 Liters fridge since 8 Months, its working condition is simply Excellent. Faster cooling. Thick door Quality. Bigger vegetable box is very useful to us. I saw in other brands vegetable box is very small for storage. Easy to adjust. The shelfs are good.
We bought our Liebherr refrigerator freezer when we built our home in 2012. It was a very expensive refrigerator that we thought would complement our high end kitchen well. We had this refrigerator “built in” with a cabinet exterior. Needless to say this refrigerator has been nothing but problems almost from day one. The ice maker when it did work produced only about a dozen of the tiniest little ice cubes about every 24 hours which is not even remotely the amount we use on a daily basis. We had technicians out several times to try to improve production but it never helped. We ended up disconnecting the ice maker years ago as it was more trouble than it was worth.We have since been struggling with the two lower freezer compartments that barely keep items even half frozen. If you put ice cream in it you will have a soupy mess. The freezer alarm goes off constantly to let you know the freezer compartments are not at freezer temperature which usually occurs in the middle of the night or when we have come back from a few days away. We have finally made the decision to do full research on a replacement refrigerator freezer and pull the plug literally on our Liebherr. It is not worth the trouble any longer, unfortunately it was a built-in model so it may be a little difficult to find a close fit. My advice to anyone is avoid purchasing a Liebherr refrigerator.
Liebherr having the best quality refrigerator available in market. Build quality is so good. I bought 346 ltr ref. This model is having some unique feature like ice twist, cool pack. The top most feature is spice boxes which make it different from other brand. We can store spices also in this refrigerator. Top quality material is used to make this ref.
The Liebherr Refrigerator water drain on the back of the fridge that is located in the non freezer section midway down the vertical fridge is not allowing the water to drain down. I have to extract the collected water by using a syringe to draw water I can every day. The fridge works fine but there are constant beepings, even when the door is closed. Today I took out the plastic trays and one had frost build up that I had to wash the frozen ice off with hot water. A service man came over a year ago and fixed the draining matter but it has returned. Any advice? Otherwise the fridge works well.
Bought the Liebherr Refrigerator past week and pretty much happy with the amount of space it provides to contain all our necessities. Also, vegetables kept in stays fresh even after few days of its storage. All in all the fridge is value for money spent. The refrigerator generates adequate amount of cooling and helps keep all food items fresh and edible at all times. I am very happy with my choice of refrigerator and that makes me feel its the best.
Liebherr fridge freezer Model 1611 - I bought this freezer fridge combination in 2011. Now in 2014 the freezer door seal does not work properly anymore and ice is building up near the door seal. Having a seal fail just a year after the warranty expires, I consider as very poor quality for an appliance that was over $4000 in 2011. When I called customer service for a replacement part I was told that the part is on back order and no time of delivery could be given. So not only do Liebherr appliances break but they also have a subpar part service at least in the USA. Also the replacement requires gluing and is not for everyone. I cannot recommend buying one of those again and would rather go with a Bosch or GE freezer/fridge in the future.
As you know if youre reading this a Liebherr Refrigerator costs as much as a decent used car. For that kind of money youd think you would get quality. Youd think if something breaks there would be a repair network for it. Youd think the customer service people would try to help. Youd be dead wrong on all counts. I have had a Liebherr refrigerator freezer that has been a continual nightmare. The icemaker has been broken almost since we installed the appliance. Weve given up on that after endlessly trying to get it fixed. Now the freezer is not working. For the past three weeks we have had no freezer. I cannot get a repair person out here. I live in a major west-coast metro area. I could understand that it would be hard to get a repair if I were in some remote location, but that is not the case. Of the repair people Liebherr recommended only one would respond. They came out, pulled the unit out of its cabinet, damaging the veneer in the process. Took the back off and decided that another person would have to come out and look at it. For this they billed me $160. After a week, I called and was told they couldnt deal with it. I had the credit card company stop payment and were still trying to resolve that. Second person was from about 50 miles away and would only come out if I agreed to pay him $300. Cash only, no checks, no credit card. I agreed because I need a freezer. He did nothing. Ran some diagnostics. Told me I needed two parts and he would only come back if I paid him another $300. Cash. And Id have to get the parts. These are the best people Liebherr could recommend. This is so sleazy that it borders on criminal. I decided Id had enough with Liebherr and went shopping for a replacement unit thinking Id be better off just cutting my losses at this stage. As it happened the local rep was in the store when I was there. He told me hed work to get it straightened out. So, several days later repairman number 3 shows up. He takes the freezer apart and decides he cant do anything and anyway, hes going on vacation for two weeks so hell get back to me. I have spent untold hours on the phone with these people. I have dealt with three of their repair people. The only thing I have to show for it is a $300 cash payment to one of them and a credit card battle with the other. My freezer is still not functional. My icemaker has never worked. You would be out of your mind to buy a Liebherr anything.
Excellent Guidance from selection of model to installation. On time delivery with minimum followup. Very friendly executives. Product Interior quality very high compared to other refrigerators. Very much happy to choose the right quality product.
We purchased a new Liebherr refrigerator in January 2013. Have had countless problems with the ice maker followed by endless service calls. The quality and workmanship on a high priced refrigerator as this completely SUCKS!!
New ref CS-1200 delivered 6/14, refrigerator stopped working 8/14, service company fixed 2 months later (part was back ordered), broke down again 2 weeks later, took 2 more weeks and still does not work. Customer service at Liebherr is terrible. They screwed up my address which delayed service, their parts always seem to be on back order, they dont follow up. I have been waiting for a supervisor to contact me for a month. Now when I call customer service, they hang up and was told not to call again. Ref is under warranty and has not worked. The servicing company no longer wants to deal with Liebherr because their customer service is so bad. I really liked the ref when I ordered it but since it doesnt work and their customer service is so bad and the servicing company doesnt want to service Liebherr anymore I would think twice before purchasing.
Starts from High quality with good looks. Using LIEBHERR refrigerator for last 1 year and found myself completely satisfied with the product. If anyone looking for value of money in fridge segment should go undoubtedly with LIEBHERR. Only brand using 8 speed inverter compressor in this segment. Large vegetable box & sorting system makes it more convenient to put veggies and fruits separately in same basket. Elegant hard line door handle, Door alarm, moon cut toughened shelves are some of things which makes it more premium. Personally I recommend LIEBHERR refrigerator.
I have purchased the Liebherr 346 ltr double door fridge from Croma Mumbai (based on their recommendation) on 2.8.19. As I have full respect of German Engineering, I purchased it. The fridge was working fine but since mid Dec 2019 (ie. after only 3.5 months) the trouble started. I have not changed any control yet the freezer started forming frost (in a frost free refrigerator). Above all the bottom chamber stopped cooling (for which I had to throw away lots of expensive food items).Technician came and said that due to ice formation the fan on the bottom food section stopped and hence it was not cooling. He used a blower to melt the ice blocking the fan (perhaps) and adjusted temperature and fridge started working, but the food section was not cooling that well it used to. Today I have raised yet another complaint as the bottom food section stopped cooling again and upper freezer section is forming frost and ice as usual. I dont know when I will come out of this ordeal.... What an excellent German Technology I got!!! Not. I am waiting for the technician to visit me, till then I go for another round of expensive food waste.... Cheers!
I have purchased 2 Liebherr fridges from Pittappillil Mavelikkara branch on last year. I am so impressed and I suggested the product to my friends and relatives. Especially they are sending their engineers for giving demo and clearly explained about the usages. Everything was coordinated by Mr. ** the Assistant Manager from Pittappillil, he was so helpful and professional to us.
Product is good with good cooling, door is hard to open. Once closing the door and try to open, one should hold the refrigerator and door handle to pull. I trying to open just with handle the refrigerator shakes by changing the position and food inside will shake and fall or spill.
Anyone who has read reviews of Liebherr refrigerators is aware that many are highly critical; most have ratings of 1-2 stars. There are also a lot of complaints about service assistance. That being said, our experience is different. We purchased two 28 refrigerator/freezer units when remodeling our kitchen in 2011. One unit has worked well until just recently. The other unit had multiple problems and after a number of attempts to repair it by several repair companies it was replaced, without charge, in January 2016. The second unit was fine until July of 2018 when the refrigerator temperature started to rise overnight, only to recover after the door was opened in the morning. After three service calls on this unit it too was determined to be unrepairable and it has just been replaced, at no cost to us, by Liebherr. Almost all of the interaction with Liebherr about the problems with our units was via email, and the customer service reps could not have been more helpful. As is obvious, we have had a lot of problems with these fridges. But the unit replaced nearly three years ago has been faultless. And the new units clearly show Liebherr’s efforts to make a better fridge. Newer door hinges, that self-close, are a real improvement. The new model has a metal indoor back panel to prevent the frequent complaints about the back icing up when food comes in contact with it. We went with Liebherr because of its clean, uncomplicated look and simple interior, and we continue to appreciate that. So I give 5 stars for customer satisfaction when problems arose. And 2-3 stars for equipment reliability, but hopefully their efforts toward continued product improvement will bring that rating higher. I’ll update after we have had the second unit for a while.
Hi. This Liebherr product very good. Am using TCB2640. This is the best refrigerator and like the cool pack and spice box and this fridge is very silent not like other brand, Please try this brand and also suggest all my friends to buy Liebherr product... Thank you.
The Liebherr Home refrigerator is simply horrible. I strongly recommend against purchase of a Liebherr refrigerator. The inside walls get wet with moisture. It ruins your food. The refrigerator is advertised as frost free. I have never experienced this with a new refrigerator before.
If you want buy refrigerator so please buy LIEBHERR. German brand refrigerator. Lg Samsung Voltas and @hirlpool is only brand but if you want space and perfect cooling so buy only LIEBHERR. Is best refrigerator in India.
The refrigerator which was purchased from Vijay Sales Kharghar Navi Mumbai delivered the product. As the shelf of the defroster on which it is hold is been damaged on corner and can be seen only once we remove which is not noticeable unless removed 6 days back when the service technician came as a complaint was raise at Vijay Sale for the the problem which was taking place in the defrost section there was lot of ice getting accumulated kindly request to please replace the refrigerator as the technician has also mentioned in his service record and the refrigerator is 2 months old. Having a really very bad experience.
This is the product that could be great if only the parent company would allow it to be great. Some of the problems weve encountered have been solved (for our needs, anyway). The major problem has not. Some of this will help you, I think. Some of it will annoy you more. Icing on the back of the fridge. There will always be frost and, especially in humid climates, some ice on the back of the fridge. This is a compromise for the depth of the fridge. We put meats and other items like pickles, etc, at the very back of the fridge to keep them as cold as possible. Theres a risk of it freezing if you rest it against the back. We live in an apartment and are used to these compromises. If you live in a house, get a bigger fridge that cools itself more traditionally.Icing and drain plug clogging. These are related issues in our experience. For whatever reason, the fridge circulation fan is defaulted to the off position. With this off you will get a lot more icing on the back of the fridge. This will then clog your drain plug with ice. Turn the fan on and occasionally check to see if it is still on - a power outage will turn it off again. Weve had it running for about a year and no more ice issues.What to do if the drain plugs up. You will need to defrost the fridge completely and have it turned off - leave the doors open. Wait until the ice melts. If there are sheets of ice, wait until they sort of melt, then pull them out - otherwise, expect large puddles. We poured some hot water from the tap (not boiled water) into the drain to help it along, but that took forever. Nows a good time to clean the back wall of the fridge. Not too bad, all things considered.FINALLY: THE ICE MAKER -- this is the worst part about the fridge. If the parts were cheaper, it would be an Ok compromise. It is a small unit and will provide enough ice in the Summer for a couple people who drink ice water all the time. Family amount of ice? No. Problems: the ice tray itself. Our first one lasted about 2 years. Consecutive trays, much less. It has broken in a couple ways: First, the thermistor attachment assembly breaks off the ice tray. Ice stops working. Second, the plastic tray (because it is torqued to remove the ice) gets cracks in it. You then get water and some ice cubes. The water then freezes the ice cubes that do make it out and it freezes into one solid mass on the bottom of the ice tray. Fun.REPLACEMENT COST. Can you buy just the plastic ice tray? No, you have to buy one ice tray, one thermistor assembly, and two plastic parts that never break. Ever. Cost - $150+ shipping. So the only part that ever breaks is the plastic ice tray and the plastic retainer of the thermistor. So, every 9-15 months the ice cube tray gets cracks or the plastic part that keeps the thermistor in place breaks. If it was $20 we would be Ok with it - again, were used to these kinds of annoyances and compromises living in an apartment. Its also pretty easy to replace. But $150? Please.Finally, Liebherr. Its clear they just dont care or they think that if they did sell just the ice tray + thermistor part that this would be admitting something wrong? Considering what theyre involved in besides fridges it would seem that worrying about these products is the last thing on their minds. If people keep buying them they will keep making them, *even if the products are not reasonably serviceable*. That, or because of their price point they think wealthier people will just have them maintained and not worry about the cost?Who knows. Either way, if you buy one of these dont expect the greatest service, nor any help from Liebherr itself. I would expect that the service companies just dont sell enough of them to be experts and their access to inexpensive parts is the same, although I really wonder what wholesale prices are. In case Liebherr ever reads this: I would never buy your products again, but for now were stuck with it.
Updated on 3/22/2022: I purchased refrigerator 2 years before. Good performance, energy efficient model, good space for 4 to 5 member, big vegetable box store more vegetables compare with my early brand. More space. Good fridge.Original review: When I bought this ref I dont even know the brand name. The sales executive name called Vishwa. He is explaining about the brand. He told this is 65yrs old brand. The features he told that was very benefit to me. I bought it. Previously I was used Samsung frost free refrigerator. Compare to that ref LIEBHERR cooling was good. We can move self tray without taking out. Vegetables freshness easily can sustain a week. Without power cooling maintain approx 8 to 10hrs. Earlier ref only sustain below 4hrs.
I buy Liebherr fridge 2019 red colour first. I think new brand wired but product after service but after sales and service good, product also excellent, this is my 2nd fridge compare with my old fridge. This is excellent space and adjustment, big vegetable box. Good product given by Liebherr.
I bought Liebherr fridge in 2018..346l blue colour... Its really cool looking and good for modular kitchen... I recommend everyone to buy this fridge... But dont worry about reviews.. This is really best product.
We have a 36 double door - double freezer drawer model and love it. Recently, we purchased a 24 model and hate it! The 24 model looks great and is a conversation piece - until the compressor kicks in. You can not believe the sound! The factory authorized a guy to come down and listen to it - then they replaced the compressor. It is still noisy. They came back and told me thats just the way it is. Since they deemed that the noise is normal (its just as noisy now as it was with the original compressor), Liebherr will not pay the service contractor for his efforts! I am so disappointed with this company. I could yell. How can this smaller unit sound like an airplane taking off when the compressor kicks on, yet the large unit we own is nice and quiet? Definitely a design problem!
We bought a Liebherr double door refrigerator in Oct. 2018. Just after 2 and half years, there was an issue with cooling. It was found that there is gas leak from three places. We had to pay to refill the gas, much expensive than other brands. After paying for the repairs, we get only 3 months warranty. Overall, the experience was bad and stressful.
Ice accumulating at bottom of 7353 freezer unit. Electra the local distributor refuses to assist and/or provide advice what to do before calling a technician which costs around 65$ before parts. The rep says: We do not provide any support on the phone. If you have a question you must schedule a technician and pay for it. Terrible attitude and support. Plastic drawers easily fall out and break and plastic handle parts that break. Will never buy one again.
Brought this brand refrigerator 6 months back and this refrigerator performance was excellent and other features like spice box is very much useful to keep spices and storage of milk products separate compartment.
I have purchased a LIEBHERR single door refrigerator in August 2018. I thought that it is a new company. But while enquiring it is understood that it is it is a German refrigeration company with more than 65 years of experience. I took a chance and purchased it from their authorised dealer at Trivandrum. Till now product is working good and stuffed food is always fresh. Especially they are sending engineers for giving demo and clearly explained about the usages. Thank you Liebherr.
This was a very expensive unit that is designed to be integrated with your kitchen cabinets by placing panels on the doors and freezer compartments. The left door doesnt close properly and you must open both doors in order to close them together otherwise you cant close the left door. They refuse to help me out with the problem and they say I must contact the cabinet installer, when I know and they know that is not the problem. A terrible company to deal with. The amount paid for this refrigerator is more than 3 times what a normal refrigerator does where the doors close properly. I read that many people have the same issue and it is a recurring one, but the company refuses to address the problem. Would not recommend it to anyone. A big disappointment and frustration. Choose another brand if you want to avoid a big headache.
Hope that my review will prevent someone from making a bad mistake. We bought our apartment in NYC with the 30 built-in refrigerator/freezer. Nothing but problems from day one. A fortune of money to try and fix broken seals on the doors, faulty compressors, back panel freezing and lack of draining. Customer service is horrendous. They actually told me to take a toothpick and clean out the draining hole every so often, however, it didnt work. The company is completely aware of all the problems with their products and are totally refusing to deal with consumer complaints. These refrigerators are not cheap and I am shocked that they are getting away with it. Someone mentioned a lawsuit, I think would be a good idea.
I purchased this Liebherr 350 litre fridge. Initially there was some problem but when I complained they changed it for me and since then I have no issues. I had Samsung fridge which was OK but I wanted something very premium and with liebherr I got premium fridge and also some very cool features which are not in any refrigerator.
Liebherr looks good but thats where it stops. We purchased a new one but after over 12 trips in 1 1/2 years for diagnosis, replacement, or providing loaners - the retailer finally gave us another new one! [They had already replaced three sensors [one twice], the main module, a thermistor, the door seal, even the door {The Consumer Product Safety Commission had already faulted them for the problem}]. Well the new one started giving us problems after 18 months.The alarm would go off in the middle of the night. Nothing else appeared wrong. We called the retailer - they responded a month later. The temperatures of both the refrigerator and freezer gyrated wildly. [The digital temperatures on the top did not correspond to a refrigerator thermometer that was accurate on other devices]. Liebherr said there was nothing they could do because our warranty was over. Dont expect customer service. The refrigerator is now gone.
Hii guys I had purchased a new Liebherr refrigerator from vijay sales, I had suggested by vijay sales employee.. with the explanation I had purchased it after using the refrigerator I had seen a excellent performance by refrigerator, perfect cooling and services is also good and I got lot of space in this and I had spice boxes also. I suggest to buy liebherr refrigerator to my friends & relatives also.... I suggest you also to buy such good product and its worth of cost....
I bought the new Liebherr refrigerator in Mumbai. Living with my husband and we are a family of 2. We bought the Liebherr TCR2640 from Vijay Sales Navi Mumbai. Its been a month of use and we are delighted to have taken the decision of buying it. Its vegetable sorter system and spice box is something no other fridge was offering to me, I needed space for my masalas and I needed space for my veggies since I love cooking. They really understood the practical needs of using the refrigerator which is why we bought it. The service was quick and we certainly had an easy installation. Did I mention the red color looks nice and different. Go for it if you want space. Its your best decision.
This refrigerator has been constant trouble. Ive owned it for 4 years and 3 months and in that time Ive had 9 service calls (6 for refrigerator problems & 3 for the replacement of the original French doors that didnt close correctly and a seal replacement.) On top of that, I have a wood floor in my kitchen and this appliance is built in. Every time it has to be serviced, it has to be removed from the cabinet carefully so the floor is not damaged. When I bought it, I expected I would not have to remove it for a good 15-20 years, until I had to buy a new refrig. But after owning this for just a few months, the refrigerator stopped working and I needed a new compressor. It took the service company 3 visits and multiple hours to determine this. I was without a fridge for more than 2 weeks. When I asked the company to pay me back for the lost food, I was told they didnt do that. Now, I need a second new compressor and despite the fact that it was put in last Friday, the refrigerator is still not working. 10 days after I called, I am waiting for another part that hopefully will make this big boy work. Again, no refrigerator for 1 1/2 weeks. The Scottsdale service rep (Jerry) blamed the repair people (who were doing their best to figure out what was wrong) and he never apologized to me for any inconvenience when I spoke to him. His attitude was rude and unhelpful. He told the service people that I was very close to the end of the 5 year sealed system warranty anyway. He did agree to pay for the part. I asked him if I had a lemon or if all Liebherrs were like this. He was evasive and attitude and told me there was nothing more he could do other than call Germany! This refrigerator was expensive, but its been a constant aggravation and I would never buy another one. When it dies, as Im sure it will in the not too distant future, Im going to spend the additional money and get a Sub-Zero.
This refrigerator has worked with no issues for as long as we have owned it approximately four years. My only complaint is the size which provides limited storage but this is not the fault of the unit but rather the result of living in a Condo which has restricted room.
I am happy with the product. My overall experience is excellent and I have been using this product for last 3 years. My Electricity charges has come down drastically after I changed with LIEBHERR refrigerator. Cooling and huge storage compared to my old refrigerator. I recommend to other also.
I recently bought a cobalt steel refrigerator from Croma store and I love the purchase I’ve made. It’s a brilliant refrigerator and also it is very silent. Stored Products also have a good shelf life. Vegetables stay fresh and also the power consumption is minimal. I am happy with my purchase and will definitely recommend it to others.
We have owned C 16 model of Liebherr refrigerator since 2014. Over that time, we have had multiple issues - from breaking shelves on the front door, to the front metal handle coming off, to constant leaking inside, etc. It has been non-stop, and we are sick and tired to dealing. Never in my life have I had issues with multiple plastic parts breaking of a fridge... We are a small family of three, so the problems cannot be blamed on the extensive usage. It is just a cheaply built appliance. Please, save your money, time and nerve cells, and stay away from this model.
Product quality is best. Moon cut shelves and spice boxes are very useful and unique, no other brand have features like this. Nothing is bad but out of metro cities there is no any awareness of this brand.
I purchased 1 year back and technology very nice experience. Its noiseless and very much satisfied. Duo cooling Technology very cool feature. I am suggesting my friends and family members to buy this one to experience world class technology in refrigerator.
Ive had my Liebherr refrigerator for a several years now. It looks good, but so many things have gone wrong with it from the beginning. The inside sweats, a lot. It has sweat so much that water pools in the bottom, under the crisper drawer, if I dont constantly wipe it out. In the freezer, the ice maker stopped working. The ice tray cracked and the mother board failed. It was a mess because water flowed into the ice drawer and froze. Since this is considered a high-end appliance, the repairs and replacement parts were not cheap either. My complaint is that it is a piece of junk with a high price tag, plus huge repair and replacement expenses. Never buying Liebherr again.
Good performance. Low consumption of electricity. In this the have of alarm that when the refrigerator door is open the alarm run. It is good because we can know whether the door is open or not. The service are good.
Im using Liebherr refrigerator. Im very happy with performance....like Quality excellent, energy efficiency specially spice box, Vario safe, Vegetable sorting, cool pack, even no noice from compressor ....
I purchased a Liebherr refrigerator in December of 2017. In August of 2019, the right hand side/unit of the refrigerator stopped cooling. We had Liebherrs repair people come to our house 3 times and they called Liebherr and told them that the refrigerator is not reparable. Keep in mind Liebherr is sold in 2 units (the left unit and the right unit). Debbie from Liebherr called me and said that they will replace the unit. I questioned Debbie and said the unit or the whole refrigerator and she said the whole refrigerator. I said to Debbie...thank you and she responded Liebherr really stands behind their products. She told me that Liebherr will ship the replacement to their installer and the installer will call me to set up an appointment to install the replacement. All seemed great at this point.The installer (Almo) came and replaced the refrigerator on 9/17/19. I know we are now in mid September from when the refrigerator stopped working at the beginning of August. When I came home to see the replacement, Almo only replaced the right side or unit of the refrigerator and it is completely different from the left side of the refrigerator. Below are the differences (remember this is 1 refrigerator): 1. The replacement unit has two drawers (original unit only had 1), the back panel is stainless steel (the original (right side back panel is white), the drawers are blue (left side) (right side are clear drawers) and the shelves on the replacement unit is totally different with thicker shelving (metal holders).2. The original freezer is completely different too. In our original unit (right side), the ice dispenser had two drawers - one draw that had the ice made and then we would pour it to the other draw to fill up. The replacement is only 1 drawer that makes the ice.As you can tell, I was very upset. I proceeded to call Almo and spoke to Katelyn. I sent Katelyn an email with pictures of how different the 2 sides of my 1 refrigerator is. She said, Wow they are totally different. I said, I know. She said that shell look into it and get back to me. I then received a call from Miguel at Liebherr who said that he makes all the decisions at Liebherr and they will not replace the left side/unit to match the replacement (right side/unit) piece. He said that my model was discontinued because they upgraded it and if I want the 2 units to match then I will have to purchase the left side/unit. I proceeded to tell him that its not my fault that the refrigerator broke and its not my fault that they upgraded and the upgrade does not match my older model (only 1.5 years old). He said that they do not care if it is not aesthetically pleasing on the inside. They replaced the unit that broke and they will not do anymore.I asked if I can speak with his manager and he said that he does not report to anyone. I guess the Liebherr family does not realize that Miguel is the new CEO. I keep replaying in my head what Debbie said....Liebherr stands behind their products. If they stood behind their products they would have replaced the entire refrigerator. I spent about $7k on this refrigerator and it shouldnt have broke/stopped cooling after 1.5 years. Liebherr DOES NOT stand behind their products! I will NEVER, NEVER buy a Libherr product again and you shouldnt either!
Liebherr refrigerator is so good. The door thickness and is cooling inside internal space boxes so amazing. Guys my suggestion is please you also try Liebherr refrigerator and Im sure after sales and service also better than others brand....
Do not buy one of these refrigerators (Liebherr CS1350). My experience has been a nightmare. We cannot find anyone to work on these and we have been without our ice maker for 6 months. Sears even came out and said they could not work on this companys equipment. I am talking about Sears, the appliance store of all times. Why have one if you cannot get fixed???
I dont know where to begin! 7 weeks ago, after one year of no problems, the ice maker quit working. I noticed frost on the back interior wall of the refrigerator from day one. Also, the left fridge door quit closing by itself. Called & got a guy named ** who sounded stupid and evasive, but apparently could diagnose it from South Carolina, because after making me fax a copy of the receipt to prove we bought it (what!!!???) and I called back to check on fax & service, the female I spoke with told me hed ordered a part and it was being sent to our service person here. I assumed it must be a regular problem for him to be able to diagnose. It was a new ice tray. Service guy came up and installed it and told us ** said it had a crack. Nope. I could have told him that. Also ** was rude. He told me that my Machine didnt have doors that closed. The next person said door needed a new hinge cartridge. Yet another person said my ice problem was a little 1/2 inch magnet on the drawer. LOL! Service guy was not issued a work order to diagnose the freezer or fridge. So he didnt because his experience was he would not get paid by this company. In fact a LOT of phone calls only to be met with complete resistance. A tech person who had to flip through a repair pamphlet to tell us what buttons to push. HE kept telling me my ice maker was leaking. NO it wasnt!!! Can you see Hawaii from South Carolina?? Awful service people and I think they are paid to make the customer wait it out as long as possible, diagnosing tiny little problems and sending useless parts to placate us. Still no service person - no ice, no resolving the issue. Seven weeks and counting. I think if the hinge cartridge ever arrives, the service person here (who is excellent) will be allowed to diagnose it at that point, but no coming out to do just one thing. So now my food in fridge is starting to freeze and Im just counting the days until someone comes up here. I will NEVER buy a Liebherr product again and I urge anyone researching one to read all of the reviews. They are all the same lesson!
I purchased a Liebherr refrigerator from Abt in the Chicagoland area. The salesperson promoted it as a high-quality appliance, and it was costly. Yet it has been a source of aggravation and expense since the purchase; the temperature panel and door hinge (all plastic parts) break every two years. I am now waiting for the 3rd repair of these parts and hoping my food doesnt spoil, because the door now pops open at random times. On top of this several of the units drawers and shelf tops are also broken; they dont latch in place and often fall off/out. Because they are also made of thin plastic they easily crack. I would nor recommend this product.
The last time that happened, in January 2021, I was no longer able to resurrect the IceMaker. So I called a Technical Service, the next day a technician came, made a series of checks and determined that the fault was in the electronic board that did not give voltage to the mini-pump that supplied water to the ice bucket. As I am trained in industrial electronics, I disassembled that board, and made a magnifying glass inspection. The board appeared to be fine, with SMD components, and no components were burned. It was also varnished which made it resist moisture well. The technician sent me a budget amounting to € 250. This was not an exorbitant price to change a plate at home, but at a glance, that plate did not cost more than € 80 COST. It is already known that later prices increase with transport, working hours, travel, etc. (they charge between € 50 and € 60 per hour). What I already questioned was if the problem was with the plate. I then called another Official Service recommended by Liebherr. That technician started looking at the upper reservoir, as he said he doubted the plate was to blame. Looking a little over that reservoir (which includes the mini-pump), he determined that it needed to be replaced. He budgeted me € 425 for the repair, since to replace that tank the refrigerator had to be removed - it is paneled - between two technicians and therefore the labor became more expensive. As I am quite skilled, I disassembled the tank myself (which the technician did not do), removed the pump, disassembled it and saw that the little motor, which does not cost even 3 € in China, had the shaft stuck. I unhooked it and reassembled the pump. I mounted the tank, and the Ice Maker worked again. Seeing the reference of the mini-pump, searching the Internet, it appeared that it was made in China (of course) AND IT COSTS € 16. In other words, the Technical Service should know that replacing the € 16 pump does not require more than half an hour, it is not necessary to remove the refrigerator, and it would have cost me about € 150 instead of € 425. So it seems that the seminars of Training of these technicians leaves much to be desired.
We are on our second Liebherr Refrigerator within the space of six years and this second one is now giving trouble. The main part of the fridge (non freezer part) is freezing the food and there is ice forming at the back of it. These were expensive fridges and to be honest we feel now if we had bought something much more cheaper it would have been much, much better. We feel now that is probably what we will do and just get rid of it. It was so much trouble with the first one what with trying to get it fixed and replaced. After much contact with the company responsible then I dont think we could go down that route again. In the end we had to buy a new Liebherr fridge from them as the warranty had expired (this first fridge was only about two to three years old) but they did give it to us at a considerable discount to be fair. But all this after a lot of phone calls and general hassle. I would never touch a Liebherr Refrigerator again.
We bought a Liebherr split door refrigerator/freezer (2 drawers) about 8 years ago. Nothing but a headache. The fridge is fine but the ice maker function has been impossible. It was replaced about 6 times in the first couple of years. Now it is broken and impossible to get the parts needed to fix it. The glass shelf on the left door just fell and broke on its own. Service for these units is difficult to find, expensive, and replacement parts seem nonexistent. Purchase a fridge that can be serviced and maintained more easily. Expensive appliance that is nearly impossible to fix.
My wife and I bought a 24 wide x 79 tall Liebherr fridge in 2009 as we were told it was the best in that size. It was like $2800, the price of a used car I thought then. We live on a houseboat in Seattle. From the beginning we had problems - broken handles, shelves that needed mending with plexiglass and epoxy. But worst of all, we had to defrost the freezer at near weekly intervals. And the drain in the fridge compartment would freeze up or smell so horribly that we injected bleach with a syringe to keep the smell down. We are dumping this fridge (and describing its shortcomings to anyone who is foolish enough to get it) for a Bosch, which we are assured will be less challenging. Remains to be seen. I have never had a fridge this disappointing. All the others ran for years, decades even, and failed at the end of their lives - as expected. But they did not fail on a weekly basis. Best of luck to anyone who still has a Liebherr. Never again for us.
First fridge died at 2.5 years right after warranty expired, reason was pipes sandwiched in the fridge back burst and hence not repairable. Company offered me a new one for 400eur which I foolishly accepted (first one was 1300eur), same thing happened to my friend Nikos, burst pipes and fridge goes to be recycled, he too got the offer. Kept only the icemaker from the first one just in case. At 2.5 years the icemaker doser died, service tech gave a part price of 600eur, so I have no icemaker since. And today the Made in Germany fridge completely died and me running to friends to store my moms chemotherapy meds. Tons of local threads regarding this burst pipes problem, I now regard this company as pure evil, they manufacture defective products on purpose according to where local laws allow them to do so.
Bought in Mid 2011 Large 3 door custom install. Off the hop freezer issues with frosting up. Tech made adjustments. Warranty is now over - Jan 2013. Now door hinge cylinder seal is gone too much money and currently living with it. Jan 2014 - Temp Alarm. Lost our food and had element replaced at my cost. June 2014, Ice maker isnt working and always questioned it...and the freezer is all frosted up again. Tech says $800 control board to fix plus plus plus...Havent yet had the Tech look at the compressor, Noisy! About to build my case to Liebherr but I am not holding my breath.
