replaced a 30 yr old ge. deep produce drawer makes up for the sloped narrowed depth feature. savings on electric bill, interior space is just right for small family use, big containers fit nicely in door and adjustable shelves are easy to move if needed. took some getting used to the staggered freezer shelf not being level, but like it now for those bigger/smaller items. too new to review maintenence/longevity but expect good results, so gave it a 4 star, would raise to 5 if holds up long term. pleased.
So the color is nice but not so practical. I need to wash and buff my fridge every few days. Also, it makes a pretty loud noise.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello,
We appreciate you taking time to provide feedback on your new refrigerator. We are glad to know that you are pleased with the color but regret your experience with cleaning the unit. Thank you for your feedback.
I live off-grid (off the electric grid power) and I use a batteries and solar panel arrays to provide power. Being energy conscious is a number one priority on a battery supplied power system. The previous 23 year old fridge cycled often, and cooled poorly. So, I replaced that old energy hog dinosaur with a new GTE18ITHWW in September of 2016.
The new fridge has performed for me very well over the past 16 months. I love the interior lighting as well as the adjustable glass shelving and layout. I appreciate the 2 temperature control systems, one for the freezer and one for the fridge. This has allowed me to tweak the interior temperatures for best energy performance. The adjustable door swing is a plus as I needed to set it to a left hand swing.
I like the stepped storage rack in the freezer. I didn't get an ice maker as the hard water from the well can be problematic even when supported with the water softener.
I have not had any problem with compressor noise. The electrics on the refrigerator have not had any problems to date with use of the DC/AC power inverters.
This refrigerator is very energy efficient, and I am glad that I invested in the upgrade.
