Too noisy.

from San Diego Model WRSC5536RZ, Serial No. HRE1601081
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Refrigerator was delivered/installed three weeks ago. It replaced one of the same model that I returned because of a high-pitched, pulsing noise from the compressor. The sound of replacement refrigerator is not as load, but the high-pitched, ringing noise is still noticeable and, frankly, it's irritating. I was looking for a product with Whirlpool quality and the features of this one, but I cannot say I'm happy.
One other thing- why no butter compartment on the inside door?

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

So far so good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sp far, we are very happy with our new side-by-side. The counter depth limits the storage size by it is enough for a couple. The new LED lighting is a nice change.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Whirlpool Refrigerator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My old Whirlpool frig lasted for 20 years, so this Whirlpool model was an easy choice, have only had a couple of days, my only challenge was the water filter and how to insert it. The store walked me through process.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quickly bought our new refrigerator in a pinch after 35 year old one failed. Size restraints limited our choices as well. Whirlpool has a reputable name & we have had success with other appliances by this manufacturer over the years. The knock in stars is related to the lack of climate controlled fruit & vegetable drawers. Do not recommend overlooking the lack of this feature! Produce MUST be used MUCH more quickly as a result. Love the appearance, counter-depth size & smaller ice cube size with this model! Integrated ice maker allows for more freezer storage, too. Lack of a covered butter shelf also disappointing. Extra spaces on door indicate one could be provided. Also disappointed by lack of information about "parts". Would love to order another shelf for freezer & refrigerator door. No idea how to do that. Finally, very pleased with water dispensing features and ice options. Overall happy with our purchase & would recommend! Good value for reasonable cost.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fits the space and works well
on July 5, 2025
Posted by: Jen K
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this fridge about a month ago and have been satisfied so far. It fit the space we had which was the main reason we bought it and it has turned out to be a good purchase. Whirlpool lost a star because the filters that were supposed to come with the refrigerator did not.

Awesome Fridge

Posted by: SA29
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We've had the fridge for a couple weeks and so far we love it. The counter depth has plenty of room for us and fits our kitchen better than a full size. Sleek design and functionality.
