Nice Fridge with nice features

Posted by: Wiggi
I have this fridge since one week now. I usually don't write a review that quick, however, I would like to share a solution about problems/disappointments I read in several reviews. Some people were complaining about the water stream coming out of the dispenser. Water stream very low.The manual AND a sticker on the back of the fridge state clearly NOT to use a self-piercing saddle valve or a saddle valve that needs to have a whole drilled into the water pipe of 3/16" in diameter. The right valve is a 1/4" saddle valve. The self-piercing saddle valves say on the package it is 1/4" but it is the size of connection of your water line going to the fridge. The actual whole you have to drill in plastic pipes or the whole that gets pierced is 3/16" or smaller. With that being said I was not able to find the right valve in 2 major hardware stores. The installation package that Best Buy offers does not contain the right valve either. To get the fridge going I bought the self-piercing valve. Yes, the water stream is disappointing. So I went on ebay and searched for a "Non-self piercing saddle valve" and actually found it. 1/4" saddle valve where you HAVE to drill a 1/4" whole into your supply pipe. I installed that one and the water stream is just fine. A difference of the water stream like day and night.
What I don't like about this fridge is the power consumption. I was looking at a Samsung fridge with the same price and pretty much same size, however, without the extra produce drawer and I really wanted to have a fridge with the extra produce drawer. Everything else seemed to be the same. But this Whirlpool fridge consumes about 40% more power than the Samsung french door fridge in the same price group without the produce drawer. That is why I am giving it 4 out of 5 stars.
Other than that I really like this fridge.
I hope I was able to help some people with the "water stream" problem.

I would recommend this to a friend!

what is the odd shaped container (rounded at one end, and slender at the other) intended for?

It goes above the whole of the ice dispenser in the left door (inside).
