[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great unit overall. Good capacity. Awesome look. Great features. Simple for a simple person. Is all about the looks. Great freezer space.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks for asking. This is our 2nd KitchenAid. Previous was a side-by-side and we loved but redid our kitchen and added 5 new KA appliances. Our new refrigerator is the French Door. Several comments with it. First, the ice maker is most inconvenient. It is a real pain to get to for off/on. We have back issues and its a strain to get to the lever. Why don't you put it in the front with an easy on/off switch. We don't want a door ice dispenser!!! Also, the freezer does not look to have the same capacity as our side-by-side. Requires us to use the fridge in the garage more. Also, the full width drawer on the inside is poorly designed. Both outer doors need to be opened to get to. Impossible when arms are full. Would rather have a 2nd set of split drawers like the set above it. Also, when outer doors are closing, they often close with a loud bang, particularly the left door. Why not have a "soft" auto-closing system like our kitchen drawers? This will allow the doors to close softly and automatically. Would we buy again? Not sure. We are big fans of Kitchen Aid and would likely do a lot more researching with other brands. We have never had a French Door design before and will not get it again. Thanks for asking for our opinion.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this about two years ago as part of a complete kitchen redo. Regret buying it. Performs okay, but reliability is mediocre. Interior LED lights have failed twice and the icebox control arm constants falls off and is way too difficult to reconnect.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The unit is very modern looking and stylish. The interior is beautiful. The Exterior stainless steel is beautiful. The height is very modern looking.We replaced a 22-year-old KitchenAid refrigerator with this one
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love all the products KitchenAid makes but my refrigerator doors have spring problems. It makes a broken spring sound that gets worse and require a technician to come out and adjust it. Strange issue for such a greay company.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is not a true “built-in” refrigerator. Cost the same as other high end built-ins but sticks out past the cabinet so door can open - does not have the swing out hinges. Paid way too much for such a oversight.
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Have had the fridge for a short time but absolutely love it! It really does keep the food fresher for longer. I love the separate fruit and veggie bins ... lots of room. As well, the drawer below is large and deep ... perfect for cheeses, meats and breads. Heavy duty doors shut easily. Bins on the doors can hold large bottles. And wine holder has been kept busy during COVID. The freezer is very cold and has ample storage. The ice cubes are clear and fresh tasting. Overall rating - top notch!!! I highly recommend this built-in fridge.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a smaller kitchen so we wanted a built in to save some space. We soon discovered that the freezer space is limited after emptying our old refrigerator. this was disappointing. Within the first few days the lights fell off the produce draw so we had to set up a service call. We are also surprised as to how hard the doors slam if you done hold them. Hopefully we wont have anymore issue going forward.
