Love the double upper doors and lower freezer
on July 28, 2016

We love our new fridge! The doors on top and freezer on bottom is working out even better than I originally thought. The color is great. My only complaint would be it's a little noisier than I thought it should be. But it is an awesome set up and fits so much food!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Overall good product, somewhat lacking in design
on July 31, 2016
Posted by: Appliance Buyer
from Ohio, United States
This fridge has a lot of space. I really like the interior lighting. We use a lot of ice so I purchased the optional lower unit ice maker, great value.
CONS
As the case with most stainless appliances fingerprints are an issue, but are easily dealt with.
When dispensing ice it is difficult to catch all of the cubes and crushed ice. Often times they eject at crazy angles, and despite having the glass as high as possible in the dispenser some ice manages to escape.
Exterior panel lighting. The button labels are a dark lettering on the stainless background. These are hard to see in normal lighting conditions. At night with most of the kitchen lighting off, these labels are impossible to see. Unfortunately the panel is not backlit and finding the correct selection is difficult. The only time a selection is visible is after you make your selection. The buttons are not really buttons but touch sensitive areas on the panel, so there is no feedback sensation when you move your finger across the panel searching for the "button" location. The light button only lights up the dispenser area where you place your glass, none of this light spills over to illuminate the panel to assist in reading the button names and locations. A backlit scheme similar to a Mac backlit keyboard would be great.
Also a disappointment is the sound. At times different motors will turn on and the whining, whirring and compressing noises are easily heard and annoying.

After reviewing refrigerators for a few months we decided on this model. This is a beautiful, quiet, well-lit refrigerator. We love the slate color! Nice upgrade to our kitchen.
I would recommend this to a friend!

New Refrige/freezer
on September 23, 2016
Posted by: fishbsket
from North Alabama
We bought it after our GE that was new in 2008 died. Not sure if it was a smart buy. Seems to be smaller than the previous one that was the exact same cubic feet volume. Panel on front that selects ice, or water, etc. is very hard to read, needs to be lit up or easier to read. Time will tell!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Nice, but don't love it
on September 24, 2016
Posted by: Mommy2EFGH
from Virginia, United States
This fridge is very nice to look at and looks great in my kitchen. However, functionally it isn't as great for me.
1. No drip tray under the water/ice dispenser. There are always drips here and if you mistakenly over fill or don't have the cup centered, water will go all on the floor.
2. Freezer on the bottom: no flat places to freeze Popsicles or ice cube treys unless I clear out a drawer. Also, my kids can't reach the fridge part to put their drinks in or grab the ketchup because the freezer is at their height, not the fridge.
3. Double door fridge on top: it drives me crazy to have to open two doors to open the widest drawer on the bottom or reach something on the other side. Plus, like mentioned above, hard for kids to reach into the fridge.

good features

I've had this appliance since July 2016 and I am very pleased with it. I like the interior layout and very large freezer compartment. The only drawback I find is that the in the door icemaker doesn't produce the volume of ice I prefer. If you have several people having iced drinks, you will run out before the evening ends.
I would recommend this to a friend!
