This is the only model I could buy that fit the space I have for it. The freezer does not have a light which is annoying. Otherwise it is fine. The finish shows lots of fingerprints, smudges, etc.
The copper line coming from the compressor sticks out almost a full inch beyond the frame. We attached a wood spacer to the baseboard to avoid it rubbing or hitting. It took 2 days for the freezer to get to operating temperature and 6 days for the refrigerator to get there, after adjusting the controls down once for the freezer and twice for the refrigerator. It seems to be stable now. I chose it for the split shelf design, which was also in the 23 year old GE I am replacing. It would work better for me if there were 3 half shelves instead of 2 and the full width one.
I owned this fridge for about two weeks, but replaced with another brand. Should have read all reviews on this product before purchasing. It has an annoying buzz that is problematic in a small, open floor plan. Veggies freeze in the bottom at the recommended temps. Poor door shelf layout. Not for me. Maybe in a garage or porch where the noise is not an issue.
We are pleased with the refrigerator that was installed yesterday and confident in GE products as well. There was a large choice in models and we were able to find a GE model that fits into the area that fits where our 20 year old refrigerator was. The Energy Star was a priority for us and we were able to go to a smaller size and get pretty close to the same storage area as our former one. This one runs quietly and was easy to set up. The storage in the door is great for frequently used items. The only concern I have are the racks in the freezer; they do not go straight across as in my former one. I believe it will be difficult to store items on them without them sliding off. I realized this before I bought it, but I would rather have them both going straight across than zig zag as they do now.
