I bought this in November 2020, it died in the first week of January 2022. Didn't even make it 14 months. Did not get the extended warranty. Repairman changed the compressor started running for a while after and then started tripping the circuit breaker. Repairman, who worked with my father and I trust implicitly, said that meant the cost to repair would be more than the refrigerator is worth. Buying a new fridge from a more established name brand. DO NOT BUY. A waste of your money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there,
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Sorry to hear about the noise complaint. We can understand how that'd be frustrating. We don't rate our refrigerators or freezers in decibels so we're not able to provide a rating while they're running.
However, if you've got questions or concerns about the noises you're hearing, take a look at this article to see if it helps: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=15901
We hope this helps and that you get lots of use out of your unit in the coming years!
We just got our New GE Refrigerator delivered and hooked up. No Issues with the looks, craftsmanship or quality of the refrigerator. Worked Great as soon as it was plugged in!
Works fine, but seems to run way more than it should.

Hi!
Thanks for the review. Happy to hear that your unit is cooling well for you. As for the run time, for refrigerators and freezers to maintain the proper temperature, the compressor will run much of the time. Refrigerators and freezers have compressors that are designed to run 80% to 90% of the time. This makes them more energy efficient because the greatest amount of energy is used when the compressor cycles on as opposed to when the compressor is actually running.

Hope this helps and that your fridge continues to serve you well for many more years!
Bought this a few months ago and don’t regret it a bit. No complaints food and freezer kept cold and holds plenty of leftovers, drinks, and pre made food.
We bought this refrigerator to use in our garage. It has worked out beautifully, keeping extra drinks cold and keeping frozen foods really frozen. We are so glad that we bought this one to replace our older refrigerator as its freezer section no longer worked. We hope to enjoy this refrigerator for years to come. It is great to get a cold drink when finished mowing the lawn or working on other outdoor projects. The freezer is great for keeping the holiday seasonal ice creams so that we can enjoy Peppermint and Egg Nog ice creams in July!!
We bought this for an extra refrigerator to have in the house. It is the perfect size and has deep door pockets to hold things in. It fit our needs perfectly and at a reasonable price.
