Old garage refrigerator finally died and we decided on this one to replace. Easy to set up. Great deep size. Extremely quiet (as opposed to our former 20+ year old unit). Happy with the choice
I am giving 4 stars because I have only had this refrigerator for one full day, but so far so good. I really miss my bottom freezer but they make the new units too large to fit through any of my entranceways. However, this unit's freezer is spacious and made a solid tray of ice cubes in less than two hours. I set the unit in both fridge and freezer to the maximum level (5) when first turned on. Heads up it is a bit noisy when it first runs, this is expected with new units. I had it installed at 10:30 AM and the unit did not stop running all day. I went in the kitchen at about 11PM and reduced the setting to 4 and the unit stopped running. Now when it runs it is fairly quiet. FDA recommends settings to be at 3. I will see if I will lower the setting once I get an internal thermometer to check temps. (temps for fridge should be at least 40 degrees. ) Crisper bins and deli drawer are a bit small. There is a lot of door space for drinks and other bottles and jars. Most new units come with ice cube trays, this one did not. So far satisfied. I will see how long prepared food and leftovers stay fresh once the unit is filled to capacity.
Never thought I would need this size for 2 people as a spare fridge, but it fits what the older 17.5 cu ft fit in freezer. The shelves need to be adjusted for tall bottles inside, but doable. Loved the fact GE has 2 slots for the freezer shelf, which is the flexibility I wanted!
