Great Fridge
on July 19, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
Love the size and lighting inside is so bright! My favorite feature is the 'snack drawer'. Because of the ice maker/water dispenser, I had to get used to the lack of door space/shelving. We can no longer fit all of our dressing, condiments, sauces in our door. We're still trying to figure out a good way to organize these in the fridge itself, but the fridge is so spacious, I don't really count this as a drawback.
Freezer doesn't over ice things like our old one did. And is also very spacious.
Fingerprints do show up easily on this fridge, but I bought Therapy Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish and it cleans the smudges very well and prevents them for a time too! Highly recommend.
As far as looks, the fridge pairs really nicely with the double oven I bought: Whirlpool - 6.0 Cu. Ft. Self-Cleaning Freestanding Double Oven Gas Convection Range - Stainless steel
Haven't had to change the filters yet... but Installing the water filter seems pretty simple. It's on the top of fridge towards the front. It just pops open at the touch of a button. So changing it should be a breeze too. However, there is another...I think an air filter? on the back wall at the of the fridge. That one might be more difficult to change as it will require removing most of the items from the top shelf in order to replace it. We'll see in 6 months!
Ice maker is noisy when running (I think all ice makers are, right? our old one did not have an ice maker so I have no personal experience). Also makes noise when making ice, but that isn't as audible.
Water dispenser occasionally makes a weird noise when dispensing water. I haven't figured out a cause for this yet.

Cook your favorite meals with this Whirlpool gas double-oven range. True convection cooking helps you prepare meals faster, while the convection conversion system automatically adjusts cooking temperature and time. This Whirlpool gas double-oven range uses Frozen Bake technology to eliminate preheating, and it comes with a center oval burner that provides additional cooking space.

- Looks
Matches really nicely with the fridge I bought: Whirlpool - 26.2 Cu. Ft. 4-Door French Door Refrigerator with Thru-the-Door Ice and Water - Monochromatic Stainless Steel
Stainless steel does show fingerprints, but I bought Therapy Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish and it seems to clean the fingerprints well and also prevents them for a time.
- Usage/Oven
Few minor quibbles. In the top oven, the rack doesn't pull out smoothly because the door is set too high for it to do so. You can pull it out ok when there is nothing on the rack, but the weight of anything, even light dishes pushes the rack down making it difficult to pull out when you need to baste or check the temp of your food.
There is also a metal tray/sheet that sits on the bottom of both ovens, if it isn't applied correctly while the oven is heating the sheet itself warps a bit and makes a loud noise. Scared me the first few times I used it until I figured out the problem. If the sheet is secured appropriately, then this solves the problem. I realize this is user error, but perhaps the metal sheet should be higher quality to prevent this warping action when the stove heats up. Note: The sheet returns to its normal shape once it cools down and again does not appear to warp if it is secured to the bottom of the oven correctly.
The bottom rack of the bottom stove seems to burn foods pretty easily. This was solved by moving the rack up one, but seemed worth mentioning.
The oven seems to preheat fairly quickly compared to my old one, but I never really timed my old one so I'm not exactly sure if that is true.
Overall the ovens cook food the way they're supposed to.
- Usage/Stove
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, the tilt open grates. It makes it easy for me to open the grates (once cool) to pick up dropped food or make quick wipe downs of the stove top. My old stove had three grates, if I wanted to do a quick wipe down I had to find a place to set the grate and I was always concerned they'd scratch our tables/countertops. These tilt open grates solve that issue!
I had read a review that said their countertops made it difficult to open the grates correctly and they were useless. Just make sure that when the stove is installed they correctly adjust the height. It's in the manual I think? The stove top itself (not the grates) should be level to your counter, then the grates will work perfectly even if you have snug fit like our stove does.
Note: Again user error issue. I did open the grate once while it was hot (using an oven mitt) and it fell open (off the hinge) onto my plastic cutting board that was next to the stove. Melting it. Yikes! Again this was user error on my part and I probably shouldn't have opened it while it was hot. Just a cautionary tale for other buyers. =)
My one complaint about the burners. The right side burners are too close together (the front and rear ones). My favorite pan is 12 inches. When I use that on the front burner, it's difficult to fit a smaller 10" pan on the back burner. I don't use all 4 burners frequently so this won't be a huge issue for me, but we will see once the holidays roll around and I'll be needing all four burners.
Overall, when using the stove it appears to heat my pan appropriately.
Given the minor quibbles as listed above, I cannot give his stove/oven 5 stars but I still love it and can see past these.

How much ice does this refrigerator produce in a day? Does it work well for you?

I don't know, measurement wise, how much it makes. On a normal day the ice maker dispenses enough ice for our family of 5. (However I myself do not use ice frequently, so maybe it'd be more appropriate to say family of 4). On a really HOT day, all of us were using more ice than normal and I noticed our bin was running low. I turned on the acceler-ice feature and we never actually ran out. According to the manual it increases ice production for 24 hours. I couldn't find any details on this except that description, but it seemed to work for us. If we ever plan any parties, I plan to turn the feature on the day before and make sure to re-set it during the party.
