DO NOT BUY! RFID reader fails, cosing you hundreds
on August 12, 2025
Posted by: unami218
GE puts RFID readers in their fridge to stop people from using counterfeit water filters.
And when this RFID reader fails, it stops you from using genuine GE water filters.
This means you can't use YOUR fridge which you paid for to dispense WATER or ICE unless you pay them hundreds of dollars.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Our GE Appliances branded refrigerators do require genuine GE Appliances water filters. If you would prefer to not purchase filters for your refrigerator, we do offer free filter bypass plugs. If this is something that you are interested in, please reach out to us.
[Employee of ge_appliances] Seems exactly as expected for a built in fridge, shelving and draws are spacious. Ice maker so far working as expected. Exterior is sleek and easy to wipe & keep clean
This model is much like what we had in our other house. I really love the smaller ice cubes it makes. The capacity is great with moveable shelves to meet our needs. The freezer doesn't seem to get as cold as our prior model, but still does the job. Our prior model would cycle the freezer and have warm periods where this one does not. As first the refrigerator was very quiet but seems to have gotten a little louder over time, but not enough to call someone to look at.
I have had multiple issues, ice maker twice, loud noises, etc.

The shelves on the Doors break very easily. I would definitely not recommend this expensive item!

I am very upset. I paid a lot of money for this refrigerator. After three years, the icemaker does not work any longer. I change the filter still doesn’t work. I wonder if someone from GE will respond back to me Save your money don’t buy this refrigerator ! I wish I would’ve known this before. I paid so much money for this. I actually give it zero stars..

Fridge is great. Only complaint is the ice dispenser is rather slow. My 20 year old 48” GE monogram was very fast.
I would recommend this to a friend!
