[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a “garage” refrigerator. It’s well made and well suited as a second refrigerator. This unit has a very roomy interior, especially the freezer. I’m very pleased with my purchase. .
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought the refrigerator almost a month ago for the garage. It seems fine and thankfully no issues. I believe it is performing as expected.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was disappointed when I realized that one of the door shelves was missing. I looked at pictures from the store I bought it from, shelf was there. I called Whirlpool and was told that shelf is no longer provided. This purchase replaced an older model that looked identical to the new model. So sad that you deleted it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We're generally happy with it especially since it was on sale. Even though it is 19CF like our old one It has a bigger freezer than our last one (which is a good thing),but a smaller food compartment to equal out the same 19CF. Because the freezer is bigger, the bottom of the freezer door is lower and because of the thickness of the door, it sticks out further causing a tendency for you to bump your head when leaning into and out of the food compartment. We like the deep door shelves and the LED light is very bright. Otherwise it suits the purpose well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Needed a new refrigerator ASAP so bought this one because it was small enough to fit in my door. Had it about 2 weeks now and I've noticed I have to turn both the fridge & the freezer on the highest/coldest settings or else ice cream is mushy & cheese "sweats" inside the bins at bottom of fridge. ? I couldn't be picky because I needed a smaller sized fridge so it is what it is I guess. My last Whirlpool lasted 10 years almost to the day so fingers crossed I will get at least 10 years out of this one... but somehow I'm highly doubting that.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A couple things: 1) 2 months of ownership and the repairman is coming out b/c the freezer temp wont go below 17 degrees while the fridge is below 30. Tried multiple settings and nothing worked, hence service coming out. 2) Why, in 2025 would I have to double checking that the freaking freezer comes with a light?? It does NOT. On top of this it is advertised and used as a garage fridge. Of course a garage fridge needs a light in the freezer., My goodness!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this small refrigerator because it is garage ready and someday will be our garage fridge. So far it has been a great refrigerator/freezer.
