Water Dispenser and Ice Maker Aren’t Great
on May 21, 2024
Posted by: AJR437
from Lewes, DE
Less than 3 weeks after moving into our newly renovated home, the water dispenser went from dispensing water straight down to dispensing it at an angle for no apparent reason, and now it leaks after use. Likewise, when the icemaker fills up and the arm moves in to stop ice-making, the arm “freezes” in place and doesn’t automatically pop out to start making ice again - so we find ourselves with a near-empty ice bin. We’ve put in a service call to our retailer, but this seems odd for a brand new unit. In addition, the whole water dispenser is placed too far back for a typical water glass. If you press your glass or hand against the dispenser arm, you have to position the glass almost tilted outward to make sure the water gets into the glass — and that’s with a tall glass!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Complete lemon, avoid at all costs. Broken at least once per year.

We're sorry to see that you have had to get your refrigerator repaired so frequently. That is not the kind of experience we want or expect. We are going to make sure we look for ways we can improve our models going forward.

Poor quality
on October 21, 2024
Posted by: sh76248
Love the look and app connectivity. The app is actually how I know when it brakes down! I receive alerts that the temp is above 20 degrees in the freezer or 50 degrees on the fridge side. Currently broken a third time and waiting for repair after only two years of use.

Don’t. Just don’t.

Day 2 after installation and we’ve already had to request service since the motor is making a loud screeching noise. Another minor point, the panels are not well aligned, which just shows this thing was slapped together. I really regret not saving up some more money to just buy a Sub-Zero. Glad we got the extended warranty for this hunk of junk, it will clearly be needed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fits where previous unit was installed in 1996
on September 16, 2020
Posted by: El Ron
from Midlothian, Texas
We are pleased that this refrigerator/freezer was able to be installed with no modification. However, there a glaring absence of of at least two (2) features that are found in virtually every other refrigerator on the market today; there is no dedicated butter/margarine compartment or dedicated egg storage. This may sound trivial but we were pretty much locked into this design by both price and availability. For the price we paid I am disappointed that these features were not standard on this upscale appliance!

Avoid the refrigerator!
on December 2, 2023
Posted by: ChrisR
from Charlotte NC
I loathe this refrigerator for a number of reasons. First, this is a "thin" model, which means you don't have a lot of space for bigger items in either the fridge or freezer. That's on me, since we knew we had to get this size for our remodeled kitchen.
But the icemaker has broken twice since we've had it for 2.5 years. And when the icemaker does work, it's very slow.
