Interesting. It sounds like he didn't want to do the work. I watched a YouTube video where a guy replaced an LG compressor on a refrigerator. It took him 7 minutes.

Or he is an honest man who didnt want to take their $ 500 for repair that will not last long.

It's possible. But, a "fairly new" LG refrigerator would have a 5-year warranty on the compressor that covers both materials and labor. So, if the repair company was authorized by LG to perform warranty work, I don't understand the labor charge.

How old was your LG?

Can you provide some additional information about your LG refrigerator. To me, "fairly new" means that it is less than 5 years old. Is that correct? If so, why didn't your warranty cover the compressor and the labor to install it? The LG refrigerator warranty appears to cover parts and labor for their compressors.

Had no luck with Beck but did with DeSantis.

We had a 6 year old LG refrigerator up north that went out just a couple weeks before closing. No one at the company could figure out our problem, not even the engineers. Ours wasn’t a compressor issue. I wouldn’t waste lots of money on this brand.

They hate Youtube because you can DIY on most anything. Repairman hate YT big time.
