Unfortunately the fridge is very Loud. I contacted the support team. They came to evaluate. The tech was very nice and helpful but indicated this noise is Normal. I recently bought a LG fridge for the garage at. 1/4 of the price which barely makes noise and is energy star rated. I love the fridge and look and space. However the noise is louder than any fridge we have ever had
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Anuj - Thanks for sharing your feedback. We're so glad you are happy with the appearance of your new GE refrigerator. Depending on the placement of the refrigerator in your kitchen, you may want to place a piece of rubber backed carpet beneath the refrigerator to help reduce the sounds. We appreciate your business and hope this helps! - Sharon@GEA.
To those who say the refrigerator and/or ice maker are noisy I disagree. I can barely hear ine (I have to listen closely to hear it) and the icemaker is virtually silent - I wasn't sure it was actually making ice until I tested it. It is MUCH bigger that an equivalent-in-size side-by-side, the lighting is excellent, and the "readouts" on the panel are great as soon as you figure out how to use them. However....there are two things to keep in mind: when measuring access through a doorway the GE number is not accurate - with the "door off" the freezer drawer there still is a part that sticks out - so it is not less than 30" and you should be aware of that (GE mentions it in the "manual" that comes with the refrigerator but not on websites)....this caused the installation to be a bigger deal than usual - dismantling and re-assembling to get through my 30 inch doorway. Second, the manual is fairly worthless - it took me a day to realized the ice maker was not "turned on" - and even then I discovered it by accident. Not a big deal, though.
