I've had this fridge over a month now, and if a hurricane blew my kitchen away I'd definitely buy this model again. The interior of this unit is gorgeous with it's multiple LED lights and controls. Having the water filter placed between the bins will make it easy to replace. So much storage in the doors negates the need for the unit to be deep so there's no over-reaching and items can't get lost. I use one door shelf as a breakfast station with oj, butter, jelly and sausage (eggs sit nearby.) The pull out deli section became my lunch fixings & munchie station. I'm able to keep this fridge and the freezer organized with no effort and can see everything at a glance. I'm so appreciative it's offered in beautiful white... in my opinion, stainless is so overdone and white appliances feel more appropriate for an average kitchen. The slick exterior and handles aren't a magnate for smudges like the old textured surfaces. And the little chime that reminds me if a door has been left open too long has come in very handy since the doors don't close on their own with a half-push like a big heavy fridge door does. The freezer section is huge and having the most used items in it's top drawer with the ice bucket is a plus. I was afraid I'd miss the ice/water dispenser in the door but I honestly don't. It's not a big deal to open the freezer drawer for ice, and a two-cup plastic measuring cup with handle makes a nice scoop for cleanliness. I always worried about sanitary aspects of my old fridge's dispenser. With my back problems,having everything easily reachable is a more than fair trade for ice/water in the door. Unlike my older fridge, keeping this freezer fuller muffles the sound of the ice dropping (which isn't much of an issue in the first place.)

I purchased this for a friend to use while in hospital. It's user friendly, no instructions needed. The picture is a little dark, but overall a good value for the money.
What's great about it: simple, straightforward
What's not so great: case feels a little cheap
I would recommend this to a friend!

Elevate your Electrolux washer or dryer to a more convenient height with this laundry pedestal that features a storage drawer to keep your laundry supplies neat and out of sight.

For such a lightweight item, the pedestal is incredibly stable under the washer. I purchased it to raise the washer, but the big storage bin with adjustable dividers is icing on the cake. Easy to pop open by touching a toe on the silver spot, and easy to close the same way. Drawer glides like a dream, even full of heavy items.
What's great about it: Raises the washer, Lots of storage space
I would recommend this to a friend!

Customize your laundry care with this Electrolux EIFLS55IIW washer that features a 4.2 cu. ft. capacity and 11 wash cycles, including Perfect Steam options. The Perfect Balance system helps reduce vibration noise for quiet operation.

This is an awesome machine. Paired with the matching pedestal, the front load is a great help for me physically. I've been using it well over a month now; to say it's superior to other washers I've owned would be a huge understatement. It's incredibly quiet and stable. The choice of settings is amazing, but not overwhelming because the washer won't let you select settings that don't jive with each other. Because of the digital components, the washer takes a few seconds to "wake up" before letting you proceed, not a problem, just a surprise the first few times. After pressing start, the door locks itself before starting. The washer senses (weighs?) the load to auto adjust the time required for final settings. To add items afterward, just hit pause and the door unlocks after it stops. All wash cycles are very gentle, but thorough. Love the steam setting for sanitation and cleaning of heavily soiled items. After doing a full afternoon of laundry, there will be drops water on the door and in the gasket. Just a quick wipe takes care of that. The manual suggests occassionally leaving the door open overnight to let the unit completely dry out. People who complain of mildew or mold in washers that have a steam setting might not be doing this. I've only done it once; have never smelled anything other than fresh before or after use. Running a short spin only cycle after removing the laundry is another option. I can already tell that energy savings will more than help pay for this great machine.
What's great about it: so quiet, so gentle, washes quickly... user friendly for a physically challenged person when paired with the pedestal

No instructions about how to operate the ice maker, do's and don'ts!
How long until we'll have ice?
I threw out the first ice, as always with a new unit. The bucket is large, and slower to appear full. I remember that I had plenty of ice in much less than 24 hours (including the time it took for the fridge to reach freezing temperature.)

How long do you have to wait before door alarm sounds? How do you set it?
How long before fridge alarm sounds and how to set it?
I haven't seen a way to set the alarm, so I assume there's a preset time or maybe the fridge senses if the interior temp starts to rise. I've left mine open a few times. I haven't timed it, but I can take multiple items out of the fridge or unload several small bags of groceries easily. The alarm is a chime, not at all annoying, and repeats every minute or so if you don't respond.
