Major defect discovered after warranty
on March 11, 2023
Posted by: NoGladInGladiator
from Indianapolis, Indiana
I noticed in the hotter months that condensation would accumulate at the top of the refrigerator cabinet. Finally realized the entire door frame is warped on top, which causes a poor seal. Of course it’s out of warranty now, and the extended warranty won’t help because the basic mechanical functioning hasn’t been compromised. So I guess I’m stuck with my manufacturing defect and whatever energy loss that comes with it. I cannot deal with Whirlpool’s quality control issues anymore.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not sure what everyone is complaining about

I have had the Gladiator refrigerator for 12 years now. It still work fine, except for the defrost condensate line. It seems to freeze up and will spill over and drain into the freezer.
If I manually defrost the whole refrigerator it will work fine for 6 months. I just cope with it and place a baking pan below the port to catch the water that than freezes into an ice loaf. I only need to empty it every 6 months. We access the freezer and the drink refrigerator several times daily in the garage. I like how it matches all of the garage gladiator cabinets benches and plugstrip
