Good but with some cons

from Honolulu, HI, USA
We are looking for 28+ CF unit, don't want to spend $3000 for a french door unit, therefore, we decided to go for this 28.4 side by side.
Here is the information I want to share:
1) The unit does make some humming noise, you can hear it when you are alone at home, not very loud, but noticeable, my 20 years old refrigerator they just haul away made less noise. I guess all running machine does make some noise now a day.
2) The ice maker is loud during the process of refilling the water after the ice maker dump out the ice. it last about 4-5 seconds, It can wake you up if you sleep close to the refrigerator, lucky I sleep upstairs.
3) Ice maker is small, I buy an extra container and keep the ice as reserve.
4) After the initial 24 hours, I saw ice flakes formed up on the back wall (inside the unit) of the fresh food side of the refrigerator, my carrot is kind of frozen, they said the temperature was set at 37 degree, I adjust it to 38 degree, It seems to solve the problem. Will have to keep an eye on it.
5) Ice water is not super cold.
6) The light is at the back of the refrigerator, so, after you put stuff inside and block the light, the unit is kind of dark, my old unit the right is in the front, so, it is more bright.

When they deliver and install the unit, they will advise you to keep it empty and running for 2 to 4 hours before you put your food inside, you need to get some coolers to keep your food, I was prepared for that, so, no problem for me.
This is my input, hope this will help you make the decision of your choice.

Can the shelves be adjusted? For example, could milk or other tall things fit on a shelf verses just in the door?
If you keep all the shelfs that comes with the unit, only the top shelf can fit milk and tall stuff, the container bin at the door can fit milk and tall stuff.
