Bottom freezer and french doors make it easier to find things in both the refrigerator and freezer. Only complaint is the water dispenser tray does not catch spilled water or ice which end up on the floor.
Our new refrigerator was a welcome site. We waited 10 months from ordering it and it is finally installed in our kitchen. It is very compact with a small bottom freezer. Luckily we also have a chest freezer in our home. The refrigerator is an ok size for a 2 person household. It would not be enough for a family.
Love the slate gray color. I'm giving it 4 instead of 5 stars because of external water and ice feature. The ice goes everywhere (cubed or crushed) and the water spout is out kind of far and angled.
So I have had a couple of GE's and will not choose one again even though I like the color, and I like the counter depth. We were very limited in choices because of width of our space. The thing I dislike the MOST IS THE NOISE! We have had GE come out and say that is the way it is, and several customers have complained about it with this model. The reason we have this one is the compressor went out in the other GE after just 4 years which I guess is the new norm .Filters are too expensive!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Factors in our parts pricing include distribution, warehousing, availability and marketing costs. As we always work to improve our products, we'll be sure to pass along your feedback to our engineering and parts teams. Thanks again! -Mikayla@GEA
The drawers do not open and close smoothly. The compressor and cycles are a bit noisy, but everything is working thus far. It definitely works better than the 5 year old Samsung that we replaced.
Delivery guys did not set it up properly- repair department could not fix it - gasket on left door rubs & squeaks when opening- waited 6 months - VERY DISAPPOINTED

Hi there - Thanks for taking the time to post a review. We're sorry for the experience you've had with your refrigerator and that the door is squeaky. We can understand how disappointing this must be and we do apologize for your inconvenience.
The quickest and cleanest way to eliminate the squeaking of a refrigerator door is to lubricate the top and bottom hinges with the below recommended oils, then work the door back and forth until the noise goes away.
- Paraffin wax (not candle wax) - can also be used on the door gaskets - Petroleum jelly - recommended for hinges, door gaskets and Fresh Food drawers/bins (including rollers) - Mineral oil - general use anywhere, can be washed off
We hope this helps. Feel free to reach out if any questions or concerns come up. Thanks again. -Mikayla@GEA
