1995Brave, as a builder, I often spent tens of thousands a year on kitchen and laundry appliances. I found that Samsung and Bosch were issue free. Whirlpool and Maytag were typically OK, and LG was a hard NO!. I once scored a pile of new stainless steel over the stove LG microwaves, for less than half price. I put one in my house to see if they were acceptable. A week later I removed it, and took a van load of them back to the store. The manager apologized, and told me, "If I was working that day, I would of never allowed you to leave with that stack of junk. I never sell LG to anybody, if I can help it".
I went through 2 Samsung refrigerators in 4 years. Junk! Never own another one.
I guess it just reflects the hit or miss nature of the industry anymore? I have bought many of them, with zero problems, and have new one in my own home, with a few years of trouble free service. The other issues is the whole concept of a "luxury" fridge. I refuse to buy into the whole $2500-4000 fridge game. I've bought dozens, and never paid more than about $1200, and that includes typical side by side units in Stainless, with ice and water on the door. I just wonder how many appliances fail since they are needlessly complicated and full of delicate features?
