Performs well
||Posted .Spacious, well designed. Freezer a little small but works for this single senior. Smudges very easily-wish this model was a finger print free version.

Great refrigerator! Elegant look
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I love this refrigerator. There is so much room in the inside. The look is so modern. Only downside is the refrigerator door doesnt close by itself. It's probably because it has such a great seal. Thankfully the alarm reminds me when i haven't closed it all the way.

Decent fridge if you have limited space
||Posted .Owned for 1 year when reviewed.Remodeled our kitchen and had a smaller opening to put the fridge in. Did some looking and decided on this model. In all, both the fridge and freezer are decent size. With a family of four the freezer is a little on the small size but that is to be expected when buying a smaller model. The ice maker works great and buying it already included was cheaper than buying the fridge and ice maker separately, although I have seen it the other way around. My only complaint is that the ice maker can be a little loud at times. My down side on quality is that we had to have the door replaced twice because the original and the replacement came dented.
