    Is the door zero clearance or does the refrigerator need to project beyond the face of the cabinets?
    ByApr 22, 2025
    1 Answer | 
    Answer This Question

    The ENERGY STAR® Qualified LG 15 cu. Ft. 28-inch Wide Bottom Freezer Refrigerator - Stainless Steel, Model # LBNC15231V is not a Zero Clearance™ hinge refrigerator. Standard base kitchen cabinets have a depth of 24" and the refrigerator's cabinet has a depth of 23 3/8", and the recommended installation clearance spacing for the back is 2" so the cabinet will be flush with standard kitchen countertops that have a depth of 25" and protrude by an inch past the face of your base kitchen cabinets...^Ivan.

            Does this refrigerator have a motor on top that adds extra height to this product?
            ByFeb 23, 2025
            1 Answer | 
            Answer This Question

            Hi there, Susan. Thanks for reaching out. The LG LBNC15231V Bottom Freezer Refrigerator does not have a motor on top that would add extra height. The compressor and mechanical components are located at the bottom of the unit, with a flush metal cover over the back for a sleek design. For height reference, the total height to the top of the door hinge is 67.75 inches. If you need installation clearance, LG recommends 2 inches of space on the top, sides, and back for proper airflow. https://www.lg.com/us/refrigerators/lg-lbnc15231v-bottom-freezer-refrigerator#pdp_specs Let us know if you need any more details!

              What does the drip pan look like and where is it located? Is this it?
              ByFeb 19, 2025
              1 Answer | 
              Answer This Question

              Hi there, JanH. The LG LBNC15231V bottom freezer refrigerator does not have detailed specifications specifically for a drip pan in the provided list. However, typically for refrigerators, the drip pan is located underneath the appliance, often near the front, and is used to collect condensation or water that might drip from the refrigerator or freezer components. If you're referring to a visible drip tray or something that catches water from the freezer defrost process, it’s often located at the bottom of the fridge, under the unit, or at the back. It may also be behind a metal cover. https://www.lg.com/us/refrigerators/lg-lbnc15231v-bottom-freezer-refrigerator#pdp_specs For further confirmation or any additional questions, you can contact us directly via private message at @LGUSSupport, and we'd be happy to assist you further! —Renzo

                  Customers say the LG refrigerator is a great fit for small spaces, offering a sleek design and quiet operation. Many appreciate the bottom freezer layout and well-organized interior, although some express concerns about the manual ice maker and lack of light in the freezer.

                  I was pretty disappointed to find that the refrigerator was damaged. The notch that holds the back of the shelf was crushed on mine. It was not visible upon delivery I noticed it when I removed the shelves to wipe the unit out before using.

                  Response from LG Digital Customer CareApr 30, 2025
                  Hello there, Rick. Thank you for bringing this to our attention regarding your LBNC15231V refrigerator. We understand that the unit arrived with internal damage, especially to the shelf support area. That’s certainly not the experience we want for our customers. If the notch that supports the shelf was crushed, we recommend not placing weight on that shelf until it's assessed, as it may compromise stability.

                  We’d appreciate the opportunity to make this right. Please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport with photos of the damage and your purchase details, and we’ll be happy to assist further. Your satisfaction is important to us.

                  Overall great with a bit of a disappointment.
                  Just received the new fridge, overall it is great. It fits great in the small area I have in my condo and gave me six inches in free space since it is counter depth. Not giving 5 stars due to the lack of automatic ice maker. When doing a side by side comparison it listed as having an ice maker. This is a play on words. There is two ice trays that are pathetically small and cheaply made. LG needs to make an automatic ice maker and retrofit the refrigerator. Other than that misleading info, it is great having the freezer on the bottom which is difficult to find in the smaller refrigerators.

                    Love this fridge. It did dent easily within less than a year. I thought I had mice in the house but it turns out it’s just the fridge making noise. It’s a great fridge for a small household with 2 people max.

                      LG Dimension of depth with door open off 5"
                      LG lists refrigerator depth with door at 90% open as 46.7" while actual is over 51". This was an important clearance dimension for me and I have to cut away part of my bar counter to accommodate. Other than that I like its look, its use of interior space and so far it is very quiet. The door shelves great help to access items. Plastic shelves and drawers seem a bit flimsy, hope they hold up. One shelf is a two piece "trick" glass shelf that is split in the middle so that the front half can slide under the back half allowing taller items on the front half of the lower shelf. I was putting glass bottles on the front half of the "trick" shelf and when I pushed a bottle to slide it further back, the front half of the trick shelf, tipped down to slide under the back half of the shelf. Other bottles on the front half fell over, it was glass bottles falling over on a glass shelf. Fortunately nothing broke, but I felt compelled to rig a gap wedge to prevent the front half from moving and tipping enough to upset standing bottles. The refrigerator is efficient with space, very quiet and looks nice. I might have given it a 4 star if only LG did not make such an important dimensional error.

                        Good fit, bad crisper
                        I read a lot of reviews before deciding on this purchase. On the whole, I am happy with my fridge so far. Many reviews said the crisper drawer froze things in the back of the drawer and this holds true. I keep veggies in the front of the drawer and have no problems which is fine for my needs. But, it's a bad design. Second thing about this fridge is there is no cheese drawer. I can live with out one, but it really does help with the freshness of dairy products. I tried to ask questions about the height of this fridge before buying, and didn't get the correct answer. I have a tiny space to work with and had to cut out a hole in the cabinet above. For some reason, the motor for this fridge is on the top. So when reading the specs, be aware that the fridge is about 3 inches taller in the back because of the motor. I still like my fridge. This fridge is perfect for smaller spaces, and yet holds a lot of food.

                          We have owned this fridge for 4 weeks. This is a very quiet refrigerator. If yours is noisy there is probably a malfunction with it. Since we have an open plan kitchen/dining/living area and our bedroom is located off of this room, it was essential to get a quiet fridge. I love it! You can barely tell that it's running. It is also a perfect size for us (a couple who like to cook). The shelves on the door are not adjustable but they seem to be sized well - and easily hold half-gallon cartons and bottles of wine as well as lots of smaller jars. The split-shelf in the main compartment has actually been really useful for those occasional extra tall/large containers. I never tried the manual ice maker - it felt flimsy and I had some covered Oxo ice trays that work really well so I pulled out the ice maker and drawer and just placed my trays on the shelf. The freezer drawers work well - they feel a little flimsy compared to my last LG fridge but I think you'd really have to bang them around to damage them. And the top smaller freezer drawer easily holds a Newman's Own sized pizza - or 3. I also like the platinum color. It is easy to wipe off fingerprints - the metal seems to have a coating on it (just like the last LG fridge I had). Overall it's a great fridge - no regrets on buying it.

                          It meets expectations. Minus one star because the refrigerator makes noticeable loud sounds — the manual says this is normal, when the internal temperature adjusts.

                          I would recommend this fridge only if you don't mind the minor issues I have. The worst item is with the temperature set to 34 the crisper drawer gets down to as low as 30. I thought the crisper drawer would be warmer than the cabinet but it's the opposite. With an accurate thermometer I checked the temp every morning and it was usually at 32 and occasionally higher or lower. I know this is accurate because leaf lettuce and radishes slowly turn translucent because of the bursting of the cells from freezing. I don't know if this can be corrected or if it's due to a design flaw that the crisper gets colder than the cabinet. The other thing is the ice maker doesn't work good enough for me. One thing is you have to be so careful when filling that the rails stay completely dry or ice starts building up in channels where the rails slide and you will have to remove that ice. The other thing is usually a couple ice cubes will not drop out no matter how hard you flip the handle. You can bang it upside down on the counter and they don't come out. It turns out the plastic political signs you see everywhere this time of year are made of the perfect material to cut yourself a shelf you can slide in where the ice maker went and a regular ice cube tray fits just right and is far superior for making ice. I also should point out that the delivery guys didn't do any sort of leveling and the top door swings shut considerably too hard and fast. It's annoying to me. To fix I would have to completely empty it so I could pull it out to get at the rear adjusters and I'm a little too old to mess with it. Make yourself a note to ask about the leveling. It's easy to forget during the excitement and trying to remember everything else.
