We wanted a simple refrigerator with a bottom freezer and was not French door. Not many stores had this style and the brands and models are limited. This one had good reviews and the price at the the time seemed reasonable. We had to wait about a month for it to arrive. After 5 months of use it is performing as expected. Sometimes it is noisy but most of the time not. The shelving works for us. Solid refrigerator. Will see how it performs over time.
