"LG Electronics has agreed to compensate potentially thousands of consumers after two of its fridges - models L197NFS and P197WFS - were found to contain an illegal device that activates an energy-saving mode when it detects room conditions similar to those in a test laboratory."
Shouldn't a test laboratory replicate the conditions in a home?
If not, what exactly are they testing it for? - 1 year ago
