We bought our Hotpoint about a month ago & all was GREAT from going to Manny’s to financing & delivery of a super neat & cute Hotpoint fridge AND, it’s working, holds less therefore shopping less & WISER!
This is a quality refrigerator with lots of space! It runs somewhat loud but I've gotten used to it. The interior design is modern and the exterior finish is pleasing to the eye and to the touch.
First fridge came damaged badly altho box was fine. Waited n got second. Ding on side n freezer door bad. Store said would replace n did. Butterbox door installed upside down n wouldn’t open. Hydrator drawer off track. Freezer door guy fixed. Super annoying. Thought I was buying good brand. U cost family business bucks for poor quality. Time will tell if fridge/freezer any good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is a great refrigerator for smaller space installation needs. It is a basic model with no frills. It can open from the left or right depending on your application. I am surprised that it isn't quieter being a new model.
This was purchased for the garage. Our garage is not hot, bu the recommended setting for temperature is "3". On the "3" the freezer was at 17 degrees and the refrigerator was 47 degrees. This unit does no t have separate controls for the freezer and refrigerator compartments. Considering that this refrigerator is not opened with any regularity - sometimes days before the freezer or refrigerator are opened, these temperatures are too high. Placing the unit on "4" got the freezer down to 12 degrees and the refrigerator down to 42.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We’re sorry to hear of the trouble with the temperature and can certainly understand your concern. When measuring the temperature of the either compartment, please be sure not to measure the air temperature as it fluctuates during defrost and during door openings. Information on how to properly measure the temperature in the fridge and freezer sections can be found here: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=19479.
If we can be of further assistance, please let us know. We’re always here and happy to help. -Gina@Hotpoint
Needing to replace a 40-year-old refrigerator, the seals of which were nearly gone, I searched for an energy efficient model that fit the relatively small space available in my kitchen yet had sufficient interior capacity. This was, literally, a perfect fit.
