As an added bonus, using Amcrest cameras with their NVR allows for H.265 streams instead of H.264, which uses significantly less bandwidth and disk storage. Plus, nobody in my town will question its capability of getting a murder-2 conviction from the crackhead who burned down our neighbor's house and killed him.....

Surveillance Station also does H.265. I love the software and interface. It's true that an Amcrest NVR can be cheaper, though. But since I have a dedicated NAS for it, I'll stick with it.

Just initial impressions of the Samsung “equivalents” were surprising. Similar pricing and felt WAY cheaper. Flimsy plastics, lighter doors that felt like they were going to snap, etc.

LG has been great in the past. Would have liked Speed Queen for the laundry room, but the invoice was already racking up…

We have LG washer / dryer in our primary residence and Samsung washer / dryer in our vacation condo. Really like the LG washer and Samsung dryer.

When you spend hours on your feet and want comfortable boots, I took advantage of Black Friday and they added a 20% off coupon for a future purchase.

Our Samsung crapped out and we replaced it with that exact LG you have in your post. Been great so far. Really like the dual ice maker!

I picked this up before Santa could get it yesterday. It’s so much better than using a broom to clean the garage floor.

Thumbs up

One of a few items I grabbed during Black Friday. I wasn't really impressed overall with the Deals. But, I've been wanting to replace our 4yr old Keurig. I was able to get ours directly from them for 50% off plus another 20% off with email and text sign up.
Impressed with all of the improvements and overall new design.

Keep up on keeping the coils clean and make note of the compressor warranty on your model. LG has a high fail rate but it's hit or miss. The part may be covered for a long time but the associated labor won't be. Source: Previous owner of LG fridges and discussions with appliance repairmen.

After our last LG fridge's compressor died earlier this year, we moved on. Coincidentally, the compressor on my parents' LG fridge went belly up a couple months later Due to the refrigerant, part replacement is not as much of a DIY job.

Not knocking your choice. Just providing awareness. Some places will take advantage of people not knowing of the extended compressor warranties.
