A Piece of Art
on June 13, 2026
Posted by: Thomastm
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The refrigerator is a piece of art. I love the color and the look of the counter depth in a kitchen. The capacity is different than a standard refrigerator . You are giving up space to shove items in the back of the shelves. I was concerned prior to buying that I would miss the extra space. I have found that we keep it organized and cleaned out. I give this item a five star. If I could make one change on the design it would be to make a shelf that was taller or you could have the option to move it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice features
on June 13, 2026
Posted by: katbee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall we are very pleased with this refrigerator. Pros - perfect counter depth for our smaller kitchen; attractive handles that do not show finger prints, plus are easy to grip; pull-out shelf is very handy; relatively quiet operation; pyramid shape ice cubes (much better in a small glass than crescent shape); and measured fill water option (perfect for coffee maker).
Cons - refrigerator shelves are fixed which limits where to store taller items like milk and cream (I prefer not to store dairy in the door where it’s more likely to be warm and spoil); only one drawer has humidity control for produce.

Solid purchase
on June 13, 2026
Posted by: None11
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This unit so far has been well worth it. Even though this is on the smaller size, it really doesn't seem like it. We find it has plenty of room for all our our needs. It keeps everthing nice and cold, although some items do get colder than others on certain shelves or locations. This isn't a bad thing, just something we have to keep in mind when storing items. There is plenty of light no matter how much we pack into it.
The ice maker keeps up with all of our needs, however it's a bit loud when dispensing water to fill the tray. The water comes out at a slower rate than I would like when filling a glass. The auto fill is a nice feature if you are not in a hurry. We were worried the exterior would show fingerprints, but I have yet to notice any worth mentioning.
Overall the unit is fairly quiet, at times it can produce a loud hum. I haven't pinpointed it this is only occurring during certain cycles or not. The front handles do not match up even though the doors do. I've tried to move them slightly, but it doesn't seem to help much. Not a deal breaker, but I would expect more of an adjustable design.
Overall we are pleased with our purchase and happy we went with this unit. Just pointing out some little items for anyone else looking at purchasing this unit.

Enjoying my new Fridge
on June 13, 2026
Posted by: StrayKitten
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have enjoyed my KitchenAid refrigerator. Even though I chose a countertop depth model, the inside has plenty of space. It's nice and bright and its easy to see everything. My only complaint is at first I thought it was a little noisy, but I've gotten used to it and decided this is not a reason to deduct any stars. Would buy again!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Kitchenaid side by side Refrigerator
on June 14, 2026
Posted by: Lisa Beth in SoCal
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am impressed with this refrigerator's capacity and functionality. It has a "clean" look to it and lots of smart features such as the pull-out cold-cut drawer, which was unexpected but very useful. Illumination is very good and the fridge seems to be extremely efficient. I love the look of the two doors and the handles are particularly substantial--the ribbing makes for an easy grip. I also really like the self-closing function, which many other models did not offer. The layout of the inside is well-planned, with precise areas for eggs, tall bottles and larger containers. Overall, I am thoroughly happy with this purchase!

It's a classic!
on June 14, 2026
Posted by: 78956
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a similar Kitchen Aid refrigerator from 10+ years ago. It is alive and well and running better than ever! We just completed new construction and I wanted the same experience from a newer model as I relocated the original to our cabin. This model closely resembles it but is far more modern (again the reason for purchasing a new one). The storage format is a bit different but with features I welcome. The only difference I have noted so far is the freezer has slightly less space. I can work around it, but I prefer the freezer format in my older model.
