Our Review

The LG LFXS26566 26 cu. ft. Bottom Freezer is a 26.0 cu. ft. bottom-freezer refrigerator from LG, sitting in the $2,000–$3,500 range. With a 18.5 cu. ft. fresh-food compartment and 7.5 cu. ft. of freezer space, it's positioned for large families.

What stands out

This is squarely a mainstream model — LG optimizes for value, parts availability, and a feature set that covers what most households actually use. You won't find exotic materials, but everything that ships works as advertised.

Wi-Fi connectivity is built in — you can check fridge and freezer temperatures, receive door-left-open alerts, and (on supported models) push diagnostic codes to a service technician without a callout. Setup friction is normal; once connected, expect stable day-to-day operation from LG's app.

Layout and capacity

Exterior dimensions are 35.8" W × 69.8" H × 32.0" D — check your opening, especially the depth with handles extended. Total useable capacity is 26.0 cu. ft., split 18.5 fresh / 7.5 freezer.

Bottom line

The LG LFXS26566 26 cu. ft. Bottom Freezer is a strong mainstream choice — most of what people actually use a fridge for, at a price that makes sense. Service parts are widely available.
