Hello. We appreciate you leaving a review, though we truly hate to hear you have concerns over the noise the model makes as well as how long the refrigerator runs. We know issues like these may be concerning, and regret any inconvenience caused. Our team will be notified of your feedback for review.

While we want to provide as peaceful an experience as possible, we do expect the refrigerator to make some sounds as it operates. If it might be useful for you, we have a description of what noises are normal for the model on page 19 of the manual, linked here: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-1000478-2.pdf&_ .

Regarding how long the refrigerator runs, we can advise most modern refrigerators save energy by running longer but at a slower speed; the refrigerator running longer than you might be used to may therefore be normal for the unit. If you do think it’s running too much, you may want to make sure the doors aren’t being left open too long, and the gasket is able to seal properly. Regarding the temperature, we would consider a normal range for the fresh food section to be between 34-42 degrees F. If you have any concerns that the refrigerator may not be cooling as much as it should, we do have tips in an article on our website that may help: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=21185&_ .
