First, unfortunately the first refrigerator came damaged - not evVive's fault, but the delivery company. However, evVive QUICKLY replaced the first refrigerator, and the second one had not a scratch on it. That was easily done.We have only been using the refrigerator for 2 weeks, however, we can actually see a difference on our electric usage. It is absolutely as energy efficient as they say. If you are off the grid with alternative energy (we have solar), the nice thing about this is there is no super high drain with the compressor comes on - whatever they've done with the new compressor, it actually ramps up slowly. This is a must for off-the-grid energy systems, but a plus even if you're on the grid (your electric company would do well for EVERYONE to have a refrigerator like this).This is almost as energy efficient as the refrigerators that are built for off the grid homes - but it was less than half the price of those others. For the dollar, this is really the best deal going.Yes, this review was focused for solar/wind homes, but EVERYTHING applies even if you're on the grid. In addition to the energy efficiency, we have already gotten use to the french door style of refigerator (we had a side-by-side); the inside is roomy, well enough laid out. The freezer took a little getting used to.Unfortunatly, I will say the shipping company they used was less than desirable - again, not their fault, and the shipping is probably less problematic in other parts of the county (better than here in Kansas, anyway).

We were looking for a replacement of our ten year old refrigerator which was very noisy. After researching the most energy efficient replacements, the LG LFC25776 seemed to fit our requirements, as it was rated as Tier III Energy Star. It uses exactly half the kilowatt-hours as our previous ten year old refrigerator.Pros: The refrigerator and freezer sections are quite roomy. Aside from the high energy efficiency, the best aspect of the refrigerator section are the LED lights that are very bright, illuminating the interior. The compressor is very quiet. Compared to our last refrigerator, that banged and knocked loudly, the LG is extremely quiet. Also, the interior is a high quality with smoothly sliding bins and adjustable glass shelves. The large meat bin at the the bottom is the most useful one, even if it requires that both French doors be open to open it. The refrigerator doors have very thick foam insulation and that keeps door items cold. The temperature settings are displayed on the front of the refrigerator and the settings are accurate. There is a door alarm that goes off after about 30 seconds that is useful and necessary. The freezer section is large with two tub sections, with a nice pull out wire bin above the tubs and a smaller wire one on the door of the freezer that handles small boxes well.Cons: There are a few aspects of the refrigerator and freezer that come up short. The main one is the spacing design of the plastic shelves on the French doors. The door bins are advertised to hold several gallon jugs, which is accurate. However, if more than a couple of gallons are stored in that door, there is no room for tall items on the remaining door bins. Plan B would be to use the main compartment glass shelves, but these are spaced with about 7", 6" and 9", from bottom to top shelf. There is no room for an upright open wine bottle, for instance. Back to Plan A, we keep those in the door bins but with four gallons of milk or water in the bins, there is no room. There are two solutions: keep fewer gallon jugs on the door bins or remove one of the interior glass shelves. We opted for the former since we are not willing to lose that much interior storage space. A better design with more adjustability for the door bins would be a big improvement. The vegetable and fruit bins are not very large or deep. Most weeks, we end up storing half our vegetables on the lowest glass shelf. Another issue is the shape of the exterior handles that dig into our hands. This is not too bad, but a more ergonomic design would be helpful. The freezer section uses a normal incandescent bulb, which seems strange given the extreme energy efficiency in the rest of the unit. Finally, the French doors require a little effort to shut. They do not swing closed but require a firm push. If you forget that push, the door stays ajar and the alarm goes off after about 30 seconds. While the alarm is loud enough, if you leave the room before the alarm goes off, it could be a problem. I'd recommend that LG come up with a phone app (they do manufacture cell phones, so it should be easy) to notify the user if the door is ajar, or if the internal temperature of the refrigerator rises past some selected limit.Recommendation: Despite these issues, we recommend the refrigerator and look forward to saving on energy over the coming years.

So far so good. Quiet. Big. Like the door open alarm feature. Freezer at the bottom is great as it saves energy. Cold air stays in drawer.
