The freezer fan has a high pitched whine that is extremely annoying!! They put a new fan in. The new fan is just as noisy. I am sure I will have to go through a lot of hassle to get a frig that works properly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there, and thanks for reporting your experience with this refrigerator to us. We hate to hear you are unhappy with the noise made by the fan – we know more noise than you expected may cause inconvenience.
Newer model refrigerators can make different noises than older models you might be used to, because of newer technology and added features; the fan in particular may make noise as it changes speeds to help maintain the desired temperature. If it might help, we do have a list of normal noises for the model to make on page 42 of the manual: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-1000472-2.pdf&_ga=2.24353534.537145943.1644244100-1532666414.1643037112 . Your concern over noise level will also be sent to our Refrigerator Design team for review – your feedback is appreciated, as we always want to make sure we’re aware of what our consumers think of our models.
We hope this information is helpful. If you have any other inquiries or concerns, we are happy to offer assistance any time. -Sarah@GEA
This relatively no frills, internally spacious fridge fits into a very unforgiving berth in our smallish kitchen. It's also powered by climate friendly coolant. My only complaint is the freezer door handle, which can be worked off by persistent kids. (But it's easy to get back on.)
The door gasket must be stiff, the door won't close unless I slam the door closed, refrigerator, or push extra hard, otherwise the door alarm is going off.
Great refrigerator. This was just what I was looking for with a bottom freezer unit. I’ve had it for several weeks and I have no complaints. It’s quiet and is a great looking unit in my kitchen.
We needed another refrigerator because the old one was too small. This one is ginormous!!!! Also the layout with the freezer on the bottom makes it high enough so kiddies can’t open.
