Back in Virginia, we bought a new LG refrigerator and the ice maker went out while still under warranty. Service tech could not get the repair part so we had to get one of those ice makers that sit on the counter. Several years later we were having some remodeling done and the contractor was able to get a complete ice maker and replaced the whole unit. Our LG TV went out and the service tech was able to get it going again but a year later - out again. These incidents were 10-15 years ago. For those who are old enough to remember, LG actually stands for Lucky / Goldstar - two of the most notoriously cheap and unreliable brands to come out of Korea. They seem to have gotten their act together these days though, and are on the leading edge but I still avoid them having been burned twice before.
