Freezer area is way too small and is further impacted by the ice tray. The fact that the vents in the back cannot be blocked whatsoever, or the freezer will malfunction, makes this a poor purchase for more than ONE RESIDENT'S usage. Typically found in apartments.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Greetings,
We're quite sorry to hear that you are not happy with your refrigerator. We certainly value your input and will make certain that this is passed along to our development team. If there's anything you need, let us know anytime. Mike@GEA
I had a 17 year-old version of this refrigerator, which is still working. When I decided to update some appliances, I purchased this in stainless steel, after looking at several competitors. I'm very happy with it and moved my old fridge to my garage for extra storage when I entertain. Very happy with GE products.
I purchased this when supply chain problems led to lengthy backorders of my top rated choice. This a good basic 17.5 cubic foot refrigerator with ample adjustable glass shelves, LED lighting in the refrigerator portion, and an ice maker.
GE appliances are not highly rated for long term reliability and the thermostat and evenness of temperature throughout are average. This is a noisy refrigerator which is of concern if like me you live in a condo with an open floor plan but it’s tolerable to me.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello. We appreciate you submitting this feedback. While we're glad you appreciate the adjustable shelves, LED lighting that illuminates the interior, and ice maker, we do regret that you weren't able to obtain your first choice model and have concerns about reliability, noise level and temperature. We strive to provide a positive ownership, and would be happy to address your concerns.
Our Design team will be informed of both your positive feedback and your concerns for future review; we always like to hear from our consumers, so we know of any possible issues as well as what you like about the model. We particularly regret that you have concerns about long term reliability – we strive to create our appliances with quality, durable materials that are built to last, and are confident the refrigerator will serve you well for a long time to come.
Regarding the noise level, newer models can be louder than older models because of added features and technology, though we do still try to provide as quiet an experience as possible. If you have any issue with temperature, the manual has information on adjusting to the coldest possible setting as well as a list of what noises are normal for the model and troubleshooting tips; it is linked here: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-1000478-2.pdf .
We hope this information is helpful, and are happy to assist if you have any other questions or concerns. Best wishes! -Sarah@GEA
