NOT "Garage Ready" in spite of the name.

This is a nice fridge, albeit expensive. But don't use it in the garage! In spite of the name, this refrigerator is not garage ready. Your liquids, eggs, etc, will freeze unless you heat your garage.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this Yesterday. Just a solid item!

I bought this yesterday to replace my 3 yr old freezer that stopped working. First being a fix-it upper myself, I will say that I was thoroughly impressed with the bottom and back of the product which are not cheaply made to say the least and are sealed to keep the critters out and insulated for harsh Winters. Just a Solid product inside and out ands would recommend to anyone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I waited about a year for it to be available and I'm glad I did. So far very pleased. Love how easily it rolls around the garage. Thinking about getting the matching freezer now.

Lasted Three Years
on September 6, 2022
Posted by: ocdweller
from Orange County, CA
After reading other reviews on the product, I'm grateful our fridge lasted as long as it did. A repair guy confirmed today that we had a leak in the evaporator system and the fridge is a total loss at this point. I would love to see the warranty extend pass the year mark, especially on something like the evaporator system. Most other companies will provide that in the warranty. We love the size and look of the unit overall. It was fantastic while it worked! We're holding out hope for the freezer to stay operational.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thought we'd be different... nope
on May 8, 2023
Posted by: ARD35
We bought our Gladiator Freezer a year ago and our Refrigerator ~18 months ago. Like most reviews show, this product DOES NOT LAST. I am so frustrated - we love the look and capacity of both units in our garage. The freezer completely went out at 11 months (thank goodness under warranty) - but we lost an entire freezer of food. Whirlpool did send out a new freezer, but only after dealing with a repairman and waiting on a part that never showed. What a hassle.
The refrigerator just went out this weekend - won't cool below 50*. I'm writing this as I'm still on the phone with customer service - but don't expect much as we're out of warranty.
I'm not sure what is wrong with these products, but buyer beware. I thought we'd be different and take a risk. I'm seeing WAY more negative reviews than when we bought 18 mos ago,.

Great Idea/Horrible Reliability
on May 30, 2023
Posted by: msandau
I purchased the matching set of Garage Refrigerator & Freezer. They look nice and was excited to get them up and running. After just over 2 years, the freezer failed and I needed to pay to have the controls replaced. After a couple more months, it failed again due to a bad sensor. Now, after 3 years, it is failing again. The refrigerator cooling coil freezes-up and the refrigerator stops cooling after about every 6 months. It needs to be completely emptied and thawed-out about every 6 - 9 months.
In retrospect, I can see why the warranty is only 1 year since it sounds like Whirlpool doesn't have confidence in the quality either.

Do not purchase

We bought this refrigerator for our summer lunch program at church and the compressor died after less than two years leaving it unrepairable. It is a horrible product.

Hello JuneauChurch, we’re sorry to hear you refrigerator stopped working. However, the warranty only covers if the unit is in a household. We do apologize for any inconvenience this may have cause you.
