I bought this fridge about six weeks ago. It cooled off quickly and I got my food into it within a few hours. I noticed a lot of frost in the freezer and soft ice cream, so I put my appliance thermometers in both fridge (2/3 full) and freezer (2/3 full). After two hours, I zeroed out the thermometer readings. Since it is our spare fridge, I made sure no one opened it for 24 hours. when I went to check the readings, I saw that the freezer temperature fluctuated from -14 to 30 degrees. My fridge fluctuated from 24 to 41 degrees. I called the repairman and he looked at it and said that is normal and not to worry about it. the defrost cycle needs to heat up the temperature to keep frost from building up. Yes, it should rise, but a 44 degree fluctuation in 24 hours when the door never even opened? I don't think so. And no light in the freezer. Wow.
So far, it has been fine....runs allot, more than the previous ge fridge. Has a high pitch squeel, that according to the book is normal. Also, no light in the freezer...my mistake for not checking
have had a problem with this ever since the day we bought it will never buy another ge appliance again very unhappy with it have to have a service person come and install a new part the new part is going to take away from the space in the freezer
We should have upgraded years ago. This machine is WAY more energy efficient and better interior design as well. Didn't even know we had the small bottom shelf in the door initially, but was so excited when it was discovered!
