[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This refrigerator, icemaker gets louder each month, so if you like peace and quiet, this is not the refrigerator to purchase.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Lots of space
on September 5, 2026
Posted by: Centerpointe
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lots of space and cools well. Lighting is not so good as the refrigerator lighting is average and the freezer lighting is poor.

Ice Maker
on August 30, 2026
Posted by: Kool34
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is our first whirlpool product. We like the size of the refrigerator, and the bottom freezer. Only small complaint, it took several days to make ice and it seems to be a slow maker of ice in the bottom freezer. This might be because it’s new, ask again in a month.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Quality is #1

We purchased this refrigerator based on a Consumer Reports review. This is a highly rated model which was listed as Out of Stock due to the marks it received. In fact, the installers noted that they were delivering 10 of these particular model over the next couple of days.
Even though we are empty nesters, we bought the large sized model as we wanted to have plenty of room without having to cram in the groceries. And since we were spoiled by the dual ice makers this replaced, that was a must. Both were easily accessible and controlling their on/off was easy.
The ability to adjust the half shelves is also a plus. We are able to maximize our space with bottles and other tall objects. The freezer layout is very convenient especially the "pizza" section which allows to stand up wide packaging rather than have to commit a drawer divider as wide as possible. This allows use to divide the drawer layout and maximize all space available.
Once the initial startup process and temperatures stabilized, the humming of the variable speed compressor became non-existent. It took about 6 hours for the first batch of ice to be made and after 24 hours, the in door compartment was full while the freeze bucket was approximately half full.
After dumping the required gallon of water to flush out any impurities in the lines, the dispensed water not only was tasteless but it was also very cold.
The dimensions for the space it occupies were exactly correct and easily slid in. One of the doors was not flush with the other but the packaging included spacers which were easy to install.
All in all, we are very pleased with our refrigerator and look forward to getting many years of use out of it. Our last refrigerator which was also manufactured by the same company but a branded as different brand gave us 12 years of trouble free use when we sold the house it was in and left there.

Terrific upgrade from a Samsung
on August 26, 2026
Posted by: Mark499
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best refrigerator I've ever had. The French door mechanism is superior to the previous Samsung refrigerator. The space utilization is very well designed. The ice maker mounted within the door leaves a lot more space inside the refrigerator compared to the old one.
Some things that could be improved:
Doors want to close against the top drawer when it is open.
Plastic wrapping when the refrigerator was delivered goes behind plastic parts and does not come out easily, leaving little shreds of plastic that took forever to remove.
The ice maker valve is loud while flowing water.

None of these issues are a big deal, so this is still definitely a five-star refrigerator.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Left side door
on August 21, 2026
Posted by: not pleased for the money
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The left side door will not stay open as it should. Closes in on anyone trying to place items in or get items out. I have had the hinges replaced and the door replaced and it did not help. This alone makes it difficult to give anything better than 2 stars
