LIEBHERR 265 new brand fridge purchased in Jan month 2019 which has problem in freezer and full ice cubes on the walls and water bubbles on wall and fail in testing for second time. Moreover it is getting ice cubes on the fruits and vegetables. My experience is very bad. As of now from the company side they it replaced and will get new, however it is not confirmed that we get issues after one year, so please be careful while purchasing new brands. We spend 28000 rupees but not satisfy and total waste of time.

Every day my husband says I love this new refrigerator. It is a french door with a door-in-door and the black stainless color is wonderful! Plenty of ice too! This refrigerator cost less than a high end brand and yet has all the features!

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.

IKB 3650 - I see Ive joined the Liebherr fan club. Ive also thought that buying a state of the art fridge is the technical and financial solution for many years. It became a technical and financial challenge for many years now. It also began shortly after warranty expiry date. It started to build up ice on the back plate and in the Biofresh zone. The temperature lowered to minimum (4 deg. C). No matter what I did it fell to minimum. The service team changed the NTC-sensor, charged 40 and good luck. In three years this happened four times. Also the door hinge damper loosened and doesnt do its job anymore. My SWMBO found out a trick. If the fridge is off for a couple of hours, then after she switches it on, it worked maybe for a week or so. But its an old trick and like all old tricks, its also not working anymore. Im guilty for buying the expensive piece of kitchen appliance, I hear every day. So all good men. Eliminate at least one reason for anger and dont buy the fancy Liebherr.

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.

In summer 2008 we bought for €1500 what we thought was a state of the art built in refrigerator, the Liebherr IKB 3650. Only 3 years later - in 2011 - the door started not closing properly and cooling was poor. The local service replaced (after 3 visits) the heavy duty door hinges for €200 (past warranty period). The year after - 2012 - cooling was poor again. They came again and changed a sensor, plus check the fan, for another €70-80. It started working again somehow better. In 2013 cooling was poor again (10-12 Celsius) and they came over and over, changing more sensors, for which they did not charge spare parts, only visit labour time €40.Finally in June 2014 cooling was poor again. The local service came another 2-3 times, charging another €77 for changing a sensor and check. Nothing happened. They came back and placed a monitoring device for 3-4 days. After this they said they have to replace the motherboard (€160), which they did, yet nothing improved. Then they said they must take it to their premises and fix it and this is what we did. After 23 days (!!!) they told me its ready and I have to pay another €193 for the new compressor motor, while the appliance is totally new!!!They brought it home, it worked for 10 days and then dropped dead. They told me it is not repairable, they can only return to me the value of the latest spare parts, buy it back by offering me a discount of €600 on the price of the new model and bring me the new IKB 3550-20. Pls note that due to the built-in construction in my kitchen, I have very limited choices for a fridge. I accepted, paying the difference of €500 and today they brought it. Reading the reviews on your site, I wonder if I made a BIG MISTAKE and if I should better find and buy another brand????

Within a month of purchase, it started giving cooling issues. The vegetables are getting soggy. Although its a frost-free fridge, the freezer has ice frost accumulated badly. After complaining several times there is no action. Overall worst product.

Dont make the mistake of buying a Liebherr Refrigerator from Alpine Appliance in Vail, CO. Alpine service and understanding of these refrigerators is embarrassingly poor. First and foremost, in the context of Liebherr quality, I can safely and confidently say that Liebherr cannot be talked about in the same sentence as Sub-Zero. I now I understand why Liebherr is significantly less expensive, because it should be! I must respectfully ask how can you comment on the quality of Liebherr when you yourself and your service staff did not know that this model was not self-closing; additionally your service person told me that fridge always rocks until you fill it up, yet the other day he found out for the first time there was something he had not learned or done that would have prevented the fridge from rocking. What I found funny is that your service guys replaced a part to eliminate the rock, which obviously was both unnecessary and unexplainable.At a minimum, isnt your job to teach your service guys how to properly install a refrigerator you sell and so call service. Your email response albeit appreciated was condescending at best but very consistent with the quality of your service, so not surprising. Your one service guy was blown away when he called Liebherr tech support only to learn that this model is not self-closing! His exact words were there are $500 refrigerators that have this most basic feature. On a positive note, the refrigerator does keep food cold and fresh which a guess is a positive.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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 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.

Just bought a freezer with a height of 1,75 cm and there’s no matching refrigerator??? They only sell refrigerators in 10 longer or smaller and besides that also different model design etc. This is my last Liebherr. Goodbye.

I was bought in last year, but till date something happened in my fridge (ex. Vegetables spoiled). I approached for services, but their services are not good. After 1 year waranty expired, now I am asking for same issues in my fridge, but they told charges applicable. In waranty time they are not solve this problem in corona lockdown period. Till they want charges. So Products and services are very bad.

My husband and I won 2007 Obie award for Best Kitchen remodel in Georgia. The Liebherr fit my requirements inside and held the decorative panels on the outside. Almost immediately we had problems the other consumers had. Ice maker has broken down twice after 2 years of usage... $900 replacement. The so called cooler unit freezes up and once or more a year I get to defrost the ice in the back. It constantly drips inside the refrig. unit thus having to wet vacuum the bottom to get out the water. Liebherr refused to acknowledge all my problems. A technician was sent out and he couldnt adjust any temperature to make things any better. You can believe that my customers know never to buy this for their kitchen. It is sweating so much inside now that I believe it is on its last leg.

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.

The fridge has given me good service. Months ago water dripped into the icemaker drawer creating blocks of ice. I took out the ice making tray to find that a corner of the plastic broke off permitting water to drip into the ice cube drawer. This plastic extruded part is 3 inches by 7 inches and produces 10 small ice cubes. I was given a price of $220.00 + taxes to replace. Since the freezer section is small I purchased a 5.1 ft3 separate Danby freezer 4 years ago to compensate. This entire freezer cost $199.00. Spare parts are always expensive but this is more than excessive. Very disappointed being held hostage to this practice. Wrote to LIEBHERR in the US and have received no response.

Hey guys, Good product, good service, good choice to buy this one. I using Liebherr fridge for last 2 years. Good experience to use this fridge. Very happy to buy this one and also good quality, very spacious too. Design, colour are unique.

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.

My son broke the plastic supports on the door shelf. I am online to see if I can order parts myself. I started reading the reviews. Wow, I had no idea people have so much problems. Mine is eight years old and I love it. Never had a problem. I yearly use a pipe cleaner to clean the drain hole, take off the vent cover, and vacuum the coils. I also have my fridge on a plug surge protector. I do so for all my rentals. I must have bought a gem.

@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.

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.

Liebherr refrigerator is good refrigerator brand using this refrigerator and one of my friend refer to buy this brand. Nice color and got more space to keep vegetables and fruits. Less power consumption.

Oh what a new looking fridge freezer but I am afraid within a few months of purchasing this nice shiny appliance all our problems started. First the icemaker gave us too much ice only for a few weeks. Later it stopped dispensing ice all together. After a few more weeks all back to normal only for the problem to occur again and again and trying to get an engineer out to fix the ** thing. Well better chance of me finding and capturing the yeti after countless emails and we refusing to let the previous three different contractors out to look at our fridge again. Did Liebherr send out a different one? Www.agsrefrigeration.co.uk they came out and after inspecting the back off the fridge section found that there was a fault with insulation of the cabinet letting cold air and freezing up the tubing to the icemaker. In the end they submitted a report to the manufacturer who finally relented and gave us a new replacement. We are holding our breath and hoping we have no further problems with this one. However dont think I would go through all the expense of buying one of these fridge freezers again.

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.

I buy Liebherr fridge 2022 January 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.

Experience intelligent ✓ and individual solutions ✓ for cooling and freezing. Gain more time for important things. More information at Liebherr. good service, experience mote, excellent service, well customer service

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.

The product is value for money... Till now had good experience with this refrigerator. Hope this to be continued.. Need to be provide good services and I expect that service at a uncertain period. Thank you.

I bought a Liebherr refrigerator - CNes 4003, Index 20/001 in April 2009 and after almost 4 years, I found out that I should throw it away since the insulation at the back was destroyed and it could not be fixed. Obviously, this was the last thing I would expect to hear since I had bought this appliance for 1200 euros at the time from a trustworthy & reliable brand in order to ensure peace of mind. Luckily, my high expectations were not turned down. The customer service in Germany has confronted my case with great professionalism and in a timely manner and I was offered to exchange my appliance with a new one with similar characteristics with my refrigerator and free of charge although the warranty had expired long ago. I promised them to acknowledge their response and professionalism since I believe that apart from complaints, we should also share positive experiences and give credit to the people who are able to listen customers voice & respond with efficiency to fair requests. Mr Andreas **, Technical Manager, Refrigerators & Freezers Division, thank you again for your professionalism.

I bought a Liebherr refrigerator. It was a excellent quality and cooling through is very correctly managed. Brand said insulation and services was good responsibility. So I love the product and services.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

After seeing at least 50 refrigerator brands I came across the brand Liebherr that has been new in India. After careful comparison and analysing what would suit my kitchen. The Liebherr TCss 3540 is unusually different and I must say classy cause the Stainless steel look is different from the other refrigerators Ive seen. With immense space and adjustable shelves I could make space for everything. The highlight of the refrigerator that amazed me is the various shelf. Its the most useful feature where I can store the delicate essentials. I would give this refrigerator a thumbs up and perfect for those who love cooking and baking. Did I mention this cool pack that doubles up to store the drinks when you have a party. Check this one out. If youre looking for class and features Liebherr TCss 3540 is perfect for you.

I had purchased a Liebherr twin door refrigerator but very next day itself its started to works in abnormal condition, not getting cooled in lower portion of the refrigerator, their authorised service person told me that in India Liebherrs almost all products are having many manufacturing defects, so I am telling here that with my personal experience is that dont go ahead with their product.

I had friends and relatives who spoke quite highly of Liebherr. And because I trust their judgment, I decided to heed their recommendation. And Im so very glad that I did, because my experience with Liebherr has been nothing short of wonderful so far. Spacious freezer, output design, compact, portable and ease of use is off the charts. Indeed, most of the features are satisfactory. Theres VarioSafe room to store all of the cheeses, cold cuts, milk packs etc. That we consume as a family. Thats obviously a very convenience. One more feature, Spice boxes system is very useful for my masala storage. First time I got, Vegetable sorting system, this is very good helpful for my Vegetable storage.

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.

Two issues: The main problem is a seriously flawed design in their model RI-1400 refrigerator. A fatal flaw that they should cover as a defect and not rely on the its out of warranty gambit. The problem. Every 18-24 months the temperature sensor fails and the refrigerator becomes a freezer. Totally useless at that point.Then the real issue. They refuse to support the problem. They rely on policy that I have to work through a dealer, even though not one within 100 miles. They WILL NOT sell me the sensor, even though I know its the problem and have fixed it myself once before. They forced me to order it through a dealer and they had issues of their own. They would not give them a price until they placed an order and they would not sell to them on account - forced them to use a personal credit card! When it works, it works great. But a refrigerator that fails every 2 years - like clockwork - is no bargain. And you will be without a refrigerator for days/weeks while you work through Liebherrs anti customer service. DO NOT BUY LIEBHERR.

Worst company ever! Sells bad units and doesnt care about their customers at all! Zero customer service and take no responsibility for their products. They dont stand behind what they sell. I paid $2800 for a 24 refrigerator and was told theyre comparable to Thermador. What a JOKE. Im stuck with a crap unit which hasnt worked for a single day and they wanna try to REPAIR IT!!! Terrible company. I should be receiving a replacement.

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!

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

Compare to other product Liebherr is good and super cooling and its keep vegetable and fruits fresh even a week. As a housewife I am really happy to use this fridge and keep give best products to your customers.

I bought a new Liebherr refrigerator and it never cools right in the fridge compartment. I had service 7 times and the same answer - it all checks out OK, but the box is 48-52 degrees. Not sure why? I called the company and the manager. No return call. Beware, dont buy one. A lot of money, no service and mine never worked.

My refrigerator developed some problems, which I accept. However, because it was out of warranty, the appliance store would not service it. None of the local repairers would work on a Liebherr, and the main customer service at Liebherr couldnt provide a service rep for the entire Olympic Peninsula! What good is a refrigerator that cant be serviced? Liebherr has not developed adequate service coverage. They shouldnt sell equipment that they cant assure service.

I bought Liebherr Single door refrigerator few months back and warranty expired recently. Product was not since purchased due to corona period. We were unable to use it because of lockdown. Refrigerator is still brand new but lock is coming out of the fitment. When approached customer care and service engineer they asking service charges of 650 + 200 for such a pathetic lock. Such a new item, and quality of lock is 3rd class, it is made of plastic and they dont even bother to address the issue. I strongly recommend to look at lock quality before purchase and avoid the brand in India. We have many more worthy brands like LG...

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.

Model cs-1301 single door refrigerator. A year or so after buying it new the freezer became erratic. It would defrost then freeze, alternately. The least expensive tech we could find was $750 to come and look at it then return with parts and install them. He said a new Liebherr would be less. Then plastic parts started failing... the vegetable drawer split open, the plastic clips holding the shelves broke so that now after 5 years 6 out of 8 will not hold the metal bars to keep items from falling out. So we set small items like mustard jars in there. I just ordered replacements from Liebherr for $40.00.

In my view, the product is Awesome product. Power consumption is very low. Worth buying. Worth money. Service is very good. I strongly recommend to all who are looking for buying a good refrigerator brand.

Our refrigerator is just 3.5 years old and our freezer has not working for the past three months. We have been very patient, and I called Liebherr today to try to get some kind of information as to how to move this along, as we need a freezer. All Liebherr kept saying is our product is out of the two-year warranty. Liebherr pushed me to where I bought it, and the appliance center told me to contact Liebherr. On top of the fact, no service person will work on a Liebherr. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY, this is not a top of the line, or high-end product, just collecting your money. NO CUSTOMER SERVICE.

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!!!

I am the unhappy owner of a Liebherr KGT-4066 refrigerator. I bought the appliance in April of 2000 for 1300 euros thinking that I bought a first rate fridge with two motors that would last for many years. Almost immediately, the problems started. First, it was a minor problem with the thermostat, and I didnt mind so much the money the authorized technician charged me. Alas, it was only the beginning. In the years that followed, many plastic parts of the interior (drawers, baskets, trays) broke and had to be replaced, with considerable cost. Most importantly, the door seal had cracks almost from the second year but when I asked the authorized technician to replace it, he answered that it meant to replace the whole door, which cost 250 Euros! So I never replaced it. To make a long story short, although the motor still works fine, I use shelves from my old fridge and I cannot store a single bottle of water on the door shelves since there is no remaining plastic hook to hang them on. I would never recommend this fridge to anyone. It was an expensive fridge with cheap, defective plastic parts.

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.

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.

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.

Very expensive refrigerator freezer. Has been nothing but a series of problems forever. Broken drawer. Broken ice maker. Broken handle. Liebherr service is flagrantly rude and unhelpful. Service techs are ignorant about the refrigerator. Liebherr is the worst purchase Ive ever made.

I came to know about Liebherr refrigerator from a close friend. Liebherr refrigerator is one of the best refrigerator which I had come across. I have been using since 3months. Top quality and accurate cooling.

I will never buy this product. PLEASE Stay away from this company. I spent $5,000 on this unit and the company tried to correct it and it kept breaking. The refrigerator looks very nice but very poor quality.

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.

After three years our Liebherr fridge freezer became unreliable in that the temperature of fridge varied between 8 degrees and ambient temperature. Apparently oil (or water?) had been drawn into the compressor, caused by power cuts (we live in a rural area). Repairs were in the region of 600. Liebherr originally offered to pay 50% of the parts but this only amounted to about 150 and we couldnt afford the rest. We managed to get the insurance to cough up after being without fridge freezer for 3 months, and decided to accept Liebherrs offer to offset future raise in premium. However they took advantage of the fact that we had insurance and declined to pay. DONT BUY THIS IF YOU ARE LIKELY TO SUFFER A POWER CUT! Apparently they are VERY sensitive!

Dear Customers, Vendors of Liebherr refrigerator and Liebherr organisation. I am a genuine customer and not a competitor. My name is Pracheta and my details will be found in Vijay Sales Panvel, as well as in Liebherr customer service. Please note buying Liebherr refrigerator has been my worst experience with an electrical appliance bought ever. This is the first time we bought a Liebherr product with a lot of expectations. Within a 6-7 months use, we have had issues with extreme cooling, water leakage from fridge - leading to health & sanitation issues of my family. My family has also suffered from food poisoning due to spoilt food and erratic cooling conditions of the fridge. There used to be continuous water leakage inside the fridge spoiling all raw vegetables, masalas and also cooked food. There were times, when there was no cooling and sometimes extreme cooling. After logging a complaint for the first time with customer care on 23rd July **, a technician came within 2 days and mentioned that the issue needs to be checked and updated to head office for resolution. A second round of at least 10 follow ups thought 3 weeks, Arun ** obliged and assured that fridge will be replaced. This promise also seemed empty as it took more than a week and a series of follow ups to replace the fridge. Now finally after the packed fridge has arrived, my family has to go through another series of waiting for installation. Finally today I have a packed fridge + old fridge gone - with practically no fridge to use and another long wait for a technician to install. Engineers do not work after 6pm, but Liebherr is ok to have a customer have the worst experience since a month. My details of the fridge purchase with my details are available for the company to validate.

When I went to buy refrigerator in the market, I liked the Liebherr refrigerator after seeing many brands there. The space for adjusting this refrigerator self is quite good. The vegetable box is also quite large. The toughened glass above the vegetable box is also very useful on which we can place our things. It also has a Spice Box option to contain spices which are not available in other refrigerators. Coolpad is a unique feature that can keep water cool in indoor and outdoor places. The power consumption of the Liebherr refrigerator is lower than other refrigerators. I am completely satisfied by purchasing this refrigerator.

Really satisfied by the product and service. I bought a refrigerator few months back, worth each penny. So far no complaints I also got it in a better market price. However, I think new technology can be applied to these products.

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.

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.

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....

I purchased a brand new 2022 Liebherr double door refrigerator in 265 lits 3star model. Quality money for the money and good service provided, l like spices boxes and cool pack and vegetable sorting system.

I am so disappointed with my Liebherr refrigerator. I purchased it in 2008 and expected it to perform as it was advertised. Since purchase the ice maker no longer works, the side panel refrigerator shelving pulled off and broke, the back of the refrigerator is icing, the vegetable and meat drawers fill with water, and - last straw - the door handle broke off! Poor manufacturing and substandard materials completely negate the refrigerators convenient sizing. I feel foolish for paying so much for this carelessly made train wreck.

We paid over 1200 for the stainless steel Liebherr Fridge Freezer. What a BIG MISTAKE! We have had problems from the very start. The lights did not work then the door would not shut properly. A year after purchase the ice kept collecting and the fan made a horrendous grating sound. We have had the engineer over at least 5 to 6 times since we bought the beast! And at what a cost. It is outside the guarantee and warranty period and now constantly the Alarm keeps going off in the Ice compartment. I have to try and press the fast freeze or the Alarm buttons constantly to stop the horrible sound! Interrupted sleep every night! NEVER EVER WILL WE RECOMMEND OR BUY LIEBHERR! A WASTE OF MONEY AND UTTERLY USELESS! We had a Westinghouse before that for many many years...The only trouble we had was the light bulb change once! Eventually got tired with it and changed to Liebherr! WHAT AN EXPENSIVE ERROR! Please dont ever make the mistake that we have. The constant call outs have cost an arm and a leg! AND Liebherr....Customer service!! not sure why they call it that ....WHAT SERVICE #? They dont give a damn. Only want to make money by sending out expensive engineers who will rip you off and the problem reoccurs after a while.

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.

I had purchased the Liebherr fridge on August -2020 and since yesterday I am facing cooling issue. I had called customer care and their mechanic visited but in vain and informed me that there is a gas leakage and it can only repaired by Monday. I am surprised and asked him that in Mumbai you are taking 5 days to just to fill the gas, What we should do in this case. I requested lot of times but I didnt got any response... SUCH A POOR SERVICE and Quality of Fridge is very bad.. I suggest not to take this fridge.

I have never had any problems with refrigerators that cost $300-$500. They just ran forever until they died at a ripe old age. But I wanted a counter depth fridge for a renovation and six years ago, Liebherr was cheaper than US brands like subzero. SO I paid $3000 for this hunk of junk, which started malfunctioning the first year. The sensor had to be replaced three times--and the repair people put it in upside down once. After the first year, I had to pay at least $150 to get it diagnosed--not fixed, diagnosed.When you pay $3000 for a fridge, you expect it to work or be fixed for free. The fridge continued to malfunction periodically beeping and warming. Usually I could fix it. But recently it died. The lights just went out and the buttons didnt respond. The beeping wouldnt go off even when I tripped the fuse. It was driving me crazy. I finally put a heavy blanket over the fridge to mute the noise. I paid my super $100 to fix it. He unplugged and replugged it. Within two weeks it died again--the only thing working was the incessant beep. I had to wear earplugs. I called the Liebherr repair people and it cost $160 for them to come out and tell me that the computer was faulty and would cost $1000 to replace. This is truly the refrigerator that keeps on costing. But they did show me a neat trick to keep it alive. I think it was press the power and alarm button on the right and increase the freezer number to as high as it will go. This resets the lights and the readings--false though they said they may be. I dont care, as long as its cold. I would rather buy another fridge that works than pay another $1000 for this defective part. If you ask me, Liebherr is a terrible company and would advise anyone not to buy anything from them--especially a fridge.

I bought this fridge in November last year for my Parents who are living in India and it broke down in 7 months. It took ages to get someone to look at it and so it took another few weeks to get the part ordered. Now company won’t have people who can come and fix the part and every time we call they are giving us different dates but no one is showing up on any dates given so far.When other family member called and ask if we can order a new fridge and when can we get delivered the response was straight away, We can deliver you next working day. So company have people to deliver the New fridge but not to attend the service for broken fridge. When we ask why is it like that the company spoke person don’t have answer for it. My parents are senior citizens And living by themselves and now have to struggle with this situation on daily basis and don’t have any fridge to store food from last few weeks have to buy daily essentials everyday especially in Covid pandemic when they shouldn’t be going out much. There is lack of customer care and no one is being helpful even though fridge comes with 10 years warranty. I highly recommend not to purchase this product as you will have lot of trouble to get it fixed if anything goes wrong.

The reported failures of the Liebherr refrigerators and the poor service by Liebherr to fix the problems makes this look like a call for a lawyer to take on a class action.

This Liebherr CS1660 refrigerator was so beautiful, I loved it and it was perfect for my kitchen remodel. I love the counter depth and tall height. Unfortunately that was the only good thing about the refrigerator was the look. We have had 5 major repairs in the 4 years we have owned it. The repairs involved major malfunctions involving the ice maker (water leaking all over my wood floor), the defroster broke, some other major motor broke, the door handle fell off and the freezer motor broke (sorry I dont know the technical terms for each part). The plastic shelves on the door just fall out randomly and so are now so broken. They are now destroyed. I am so disappointed with the fridge. Thank goodness I purchased the extended warranty - the last repair was over $400. I no longer use the ice maker as the repair person said it will definitely break again as it is the same cheap plastic part being replaced. I loved this refrigerator so much and am so disappointed at the terrible quality and the number of major problems I have had. I still cant believe I paid over $4000 for this refrigerator and had a breakdown within the first 6 months. I dont normally write negative reviews but I sure do wish I had read the reviews of this refrigerator before purchasing.

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.

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!!!!

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.

This is the first time we have ever written a review about a product as we are normally tolerant. Our experience with the Liebherr refrigerator has, however, been so appalling that we felt we had to write about it to warn others off. The problems we have had relate to endless issues with the ice maker, the doors not closing properly, the doors not staying open properly, the handle coming loose very early on and, more recently, the endless quantities of ice that are forming on the back wall of the fridge itself (see enclosed photo). Three months ago we were told that a seal would solve this problem and that it would take 4 to 8 weeks to deliver but we are still waiting. What is nice about the fridge is its look but to quote a well known cliche, Dont judge a book by its cover. Finally, the issues we had began just five months after buying the fridge.

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!

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.

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.

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!

After several visits from the official Dutch Liebherr repair service, Liebherr gave up on its own product! This top of the line Liebherr 3967-A20 RVS only lasted its Very limited warranty of 2 Years. This refrigerator listed at 3299 Euros in 2008. So after 4 visits the official Liebherr service person gave up and declared this unit not repairable. So I expected that a company like Liebherr would not hesitate to rectify the situation. So Liebherr replied that although the situation was extremely regrettable that the best that Liebherr could do was to Sell Me a new refrigerator at a reduced price. So how much you ask? CBNPes3967 for 1083,32 incl. BTW, for those of you outside of Holland thats 1083.32 Euro including VAT.Naturally, I told them that that would be completely unacceptable. Just imagine buying a very expensive refrigerator and have it fail only to make the same mistake again with a company that does not guarantee its products sufficiently. I then turned to Liebherr Germany to hopefully find someone to take responsibility for the sale of this faulty product. Well as you can imagine, I did not find anyone that was willing to do anything more than try and sell me another one of their products. Watch out people! OH theres more! Several other people bought this brand only to regret it later, see for yourself.

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 ....

Liebherr the name says it all. The best refrigerator Ive ever purchased. Top notch quality. Its noiseless. Ive stuffed it with food and its always fresh. Ive been using it for the past 8 months and Im completely satisfied with my buy.

Hi Im purchased single door DB2220. Excellent product. My usage ruff no issue, good cooling, freezer size big. It provide faster cooling, vegetable box superior quality, side puf thickness is good. Happy with the product.

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 ice maker on my Liebherr fridge stopped working a few weeks ago. The technician from Electra the agent for Liebherr in Israel diagnosed the problem and told me that for the parts and labor it would cost NIS2000 ($600) to do the repair work. I wrote an email to Liebherr Germany to tell them that I had sourced the same parts from their distributor in Holland at 50% of the price quoted in Israel. Germany sent a mail to Electra the Israel distributor and a few days later Electra called me to say that they would reduce the price of the parts to NIS1470 ($400). I subsequently brought the parts from Holland and had my own fridge mechanic do the repairs. He found that only 1 small part which costs NIS150 ($40) needed replacing as all the other parts which the Electra technician had said needed replacing were all in perfect working order.

We bought our Liebherr 8 years ago. We have had nothing but problems since the very beginning. In less than a year, shelves break, the gaskets rips apart, the shelves in the doors cant withstand normal use, the ice maker works intermittently, etc. Weve had a repairman out at least once every year and a half. Currently, we get ice build-up on the bottom of the freezer. Now our fridge will not work at all. Given the price point, I expected so much more. I never had problems with my cheaper appliance! My warning to you - dont buy it!

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.

We purchased the CS 20 7081 407-00 in November of 2010. Since that time, the ice maker has broken twice. The first time, the unit was under warranty and was replaced quickly. At the time the ice maker was replaced, the technician mentioned that the units were not well engineered and were a constant repair issue. Now we are out of warranty and face the repair bills for a piece of equipment that is poorly engineered and will surely break again. Dont buy this fridge with the ice maker, it will break and you will ultimately be stuck with the repair bills.

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.

We bought the Liebherr when we were renovating our kitchen in 2009. I just opened the site to see how to make the freezer stop beeping. I was not surprised to see that we experienced just about every complaint in the recent postings. We had the second authorized repairman 8 times. I could not find the paperwork for the first repairman. Our first complaint when the refrigerator arrived was the pokey ice production. Our dealer contacted Liebherr and was told that Europeans dont use as much ice as Americans. That was a stunning reply since I bought in the US. Then we started having constant problems with the French doors closing. We had many visits from the first repairman, after which the second repairman , who seemed more knowledgeable, repaired the doors. We had to have the suction trim replaced. We also had a problem with the back of the refrigerator freezing, clogging the drain. The two drawers filled with water and the fresh produce kept freezing. The refrigerator has been a huge disappointment. From our experience, I would never recommend this refrigerator. My husband & I recall our parents having the same refrigerator for our entire childhoods. Those days are surely long gone.
