Love this Fridge!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my third time owning this fridge. I owned two of the Amana version, which is the same but more basic in terms of materials used. We moved and renovated the new kitchen and I wanted to have this fridge again but in the higher end Kitchenaid style. The interior is high quality. I love that the side is gray to match the stainless since that side shows in my kitchen. The space and organization is great in this fridge. I also appreciate that it is the least deep of all the single door fridges on the market besides built ins. So, I basically bought all the other Kitchenaid appliances to match this fridge. I love a single door fridge as you only have to open one door to get your things in and out and you have a clear shot to your counter that is next to the fridge without having to move around another door that is in the way.
We do not use ice very often so I have two covered ice trays that I keep in the freezer instead of the ice maker to save space.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the stainless steel and having the freezer at the bottom. However, organizing the bottom freezer is tough. It doesn't hold as much as my old fridge with the freezer on top. My frozen foods just fall into the whole and get lost.
It has also started making noises. Not as quiet as when we first bought it.
Pros: Nice looking
Cons: Makes noise
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love our new Kitchenaid refrigerator. It is solidly built. Interior trays well laid out with lots of adjustability. Plastic parts are sturdy, unlike most refrigerators. The interior is well lit. The design is elegant and pleasing to the eye. It has the feel of a well crafted automobile.
Pros: Convenient Features, Performance, easy to use, Design

I'm so pleased with this refrigerator. It's very roomy with shelves that are easy to access and clean. I particularly like the bottom freezer. It is so easy to find items in there, and access to the ice maker is great. The bin is large and easy to remove when needed.
Pros: Design, easy to use, Performance, Convenient Features

very good fridge

I have had this fridge for several months and it works faultlessly. The bottom freezer model makes it easier to see leftovers, and the temperature at which it is set keeps food properly for much longer than my old fridge. The overall size is the same as my old fridge, but it seems to hold much more in both the fridge and freezer. It's also, contrary to what I've read, not a noisy appliance.
Two things keep me from giving it a "five" rating. First, the right crisper gets hooked up on the right-hand humidity control knob when I try to close the drawer, which then has to be wiggled into place. A nuisance that I plan to address. Secondly the plastic shelves and bins, etc, are really flimsy and I think it's a shame to not use the same quality throughout.
If I didn't have these two complaints I might haven given it a "six"!
