LG 26 cu. ft. Smart Counter-Depth MAX French Door Refrigerator with Craft Ice and InstaView Door-in-Door – PrintProof Stainless Steel

• Counter-Depth MAX™ — 26 cu. ft. Counter-Depth Capacity: LG's Counter-Depth MAX™ design delivers more storage than any other 36-inch counter-depth refrigerator in its class — fitting the capacity of a standard-depth model into a flush-with-cabinetry footprint.
• External Ice and Water Dispenser: Conveniently access filtered water, crushed ice, and cubed ice directly from the exterior door without opening the refrigerator — reducing cold air loss and making everyday hydration effortless.
• Craft Ice™ Maker: Automatically produces slow-melting, crystal-clear spherical ice balls that elevate cocktails, spirits, and chilled beverages — in addition to standard cubed ice from the dispenser.
• InstaView™ Door-in-Door: Knock twice on the inner glass panel to illuminate the interior and see what's inside without opening the door — reducing cold air loss for items you access most frequently.
• LinearCooling™: A precision linear compressor maintains interior temperature within 1°F of the set point continuously, minimizing fluctuations that cause food to spoil faster.
• Door Cooling+: Multiple interior door vents blast cold air to all areas of the fresh food compartment simultaneously, keeping the entire refrigerator space evenly cooled after door openings.
• Slim SpacePlus® Ice System: The ice maker is designed to take up less door bin space compared to traditional in-door ice makers, freeing up more room in the door for bottles, jugs, and condiments.
• ThinQ® Active Intelligence: Connect to the LG ThinQ® app for remote monitoring, energy tracking, proactive ThinQ Care alerts, Smart Diagnosis, and Alexa or Google Assistant voice control.
• PrintProof® Stainless Steel: Fingerprint and smudge-resistant finish wipes clean instantly with a soft dry cloth for a polished, low-maintenance kitchen appearance every day.
• ENERGY STAR® Certified & ADA Compliant: Meets EPA energy efficiency standards and ADA accessibility requirements for a refrigerator that is both cost-efficient and broadly accessible.

Q1: What is Craft Ice™ and how is it different from standard ice cubes?
A: Craft Ice™ refers to the LF26C6230V's ability to automatically produce slow-melting, crystal-clear spherical ice balls — in addition to standard cubed ice from the external dispenser. Spherical ice has less surface area than standard ice cubes, which means it melts more slowly, diluting drinks less over time. This makes Craft Ice™ ideal for cocktails, spirits, and premium beverages.

Q2: Does this refrigerator have both InstaView™ and an external dispenser?
A: Yes — the LF26C6230V features both InstaView™ Door-in-Door and an external ice and water dispenser, making it the most feature-complete model in the lineup. InstaView™ lets you see the dedicated door-in-door compartment without opening it, while the external dispenser provides access to water, crushed ice, and cubed ice without opening any door.

Q3: How does Counter-Depth MAX™ deliver more capacity than other counter-depth models?
A: Counter-Depth MAX™ is LG's engineering approach to maximizing usable interior volume within the counter-depth footprint by optimizing the internal layout, wall thickness, and door design. The result is 26 cu. ft. of total storage in a counter-depth format — significantly more than most competing 36-inch counter-depth refrigerators which typically offer 22–24 cu. ft.

Q4: What is the Slim SpacePlus® Ice System?
A: Slim SpacePlus® is a redesigned in-door ice maker that occupies significantly less space in the upper door bin compared to a conventional in-door ice maker. This frees up more usable space in the door for bottles, pitchers, condiments, and other tall or large items without losing ice-making capability.

Q5: What electrical and water connections does this refrigerator require?
A: The LF26C6230V operates on a standard 120V / 15-amp household outlet. A water line connection is required to use the external water and ice dispenser and the Craft Ice™ maker. Installation by a qualified technician is recommended.
