LG LSC27990TT Refrigerator Review

Product: LG LSC27990TT Refrigerator
MSRP: $3499

I thought it was high time I review a real top of the line refrigerator; tonight I bring you a review of the LG LSC27990TT Refrigerator.

Positives
The first and most obvious positive is the built in TV screen. It’s a bright 15” LCD screen of wondrous joy! Save counter space and never lug a clunky television back and forth from room to room again with a television built into your refrigerator? Of course you’re wondering if you can hook it up to cable or satellite television. Of course you can! This is an LG refrigerator and it wouldn’t come anywhere near my list of the highest end refrigerators if it didn’t. Even if television isn’t your thing, you can still wow you’re neighbors and friends with your incredibly high tech looking kitchen or use the built in FM radio to listen to your favorite radio stations.

I’m not done with all the features this LCD screen offers. If you’re hungry and don’t know what to make, you can browse through preloaded recipes. Wondering what the weather will be like? Use the built in weather service to plan your wardrobe for the next 5 days.

Better yet, if you’re a forgetful person, and I am, it has an easily programmable alarm system that will automatically remind you of important days like your anniversary, your daughter’s soccer game, or that date you scheduled for Friday night. Greater still, load pictures of your favorite occasions and set the LCD screen to scroll through them.

Moving on to the more practical features, this refrigerator is designed with a large 26.2 cubic feet of space to fill. Stay organized with a utility bin, 2 BigBin freezer door bins, 3 slide-out wire freezer drawers, 5 refrigerator door baskets including four clear boxes and a special space for dairy products, and 3 tempered glass shelves.

The crisper the most advanced I’ve seen by far. It uses a specially designed crisper box to maintain optimum humidity levels to keep your fruits and vegetables as fresh as possible for as long as possible.

The most innovative design feature is the built-in-door ice maker that fits within the refrigerator door. This frees up valuable freezer space.

Negatives
There is only one negative, this high end refrigerator is only covered by a typical 1 year labor 7 year parts warranty. However, if you’re shelling out $3500 for a refrigerator you probably have the money to buy one every year. If that still bothers you, most companies offer extended warranty plans that cover accidents as well as defects.

Final Analysis
There are so many features on this refrigerator I haven’t been able to touch on in this review. However, I think I covered the main highlights and they more than justify the price point. This refrigerator fit for a king’s kitchen gets a 5 out of 5.


The LG LSC27990TT Refrigerator is the best home refrigerator on the market!
