Gallery 36 In. 25.6 Cu. Ft. Standard Depth Side By Side Refrigerator In Black Stainless Steel

This model provides 25.6 cubic feet of total capacity with a side-by-side layout. Reviewers consistently praise the spacious interior, noting that despite the overall dimensions being similar to older models, the internal layout feels more efficient and offers plenty of room for both fresh food and frozen items.

This model measures 36.1 inches wide, 69.9 inches tall, and 35.9 inches deep. Multiple reviewers specifically note that this refrigerator maintains a footprint similar to older models, making it an excellent choice for kitchens with space constraints where newer, larger appliances won't fit without a full remodel.

Owners report that the ice maker works well and produces plenty of ice with a light touch on the dispenser—no hard pressing required. The ice cubes are smaller and more numerous than some competing models. However, a few reviewers with larger households note that even with good ice production, high-volume usage can deplete supply quickly, and there have been occasional reports of ice maker repairs needed within the first couple of years.

The vast majority of reviewers report that this model maintains consistent, proper temperatures for both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. It cools quickly after installation and reliably keeps food fresh. One reviewer reported a temperature control failure after 16 months, but this appears to be an isolated defect rather than a widespread pattern.

Most reviewers describe the refrigerator as quiet or very quiet during normal operation. The ice maker is also noted as quiet by several owners. However, a small number of reviewers report noticeable noise when the unit runs or when the ice maker cycles, so noise levels may vary by unit.

Reviewers consistently praise the LED lighting, which makes it easy to find items, glass shelves for visibility, and the side-by-side layout with the freezer compartment on the side rather than below. The fingerprint-resistant finish is also highlighted as a desirable feature. Some reviewers note that shelf configuration options are more limited compared to older Frigidaire models.

One reviewer reported that the freezer drawers can fall off the support rails when pulled out fully, as they have only a small midway support piece. While this appears to be an isolated complaint, potential buyers should be aware of this design limitation when accessing items stored deeper in the freezer drawers.

Many reviewers who owned previous Frigidaire models report strong brand loyalty and satisfaction with this unit as a replacement. Owners appreciate the improved interior layout, LED lighting, and ice maker performance compared to older models. However, some note that customization options for shelf heights are fewer than in older Frigidaire designs, and a few report concerns about build quality compared to what they remember from earlier generations.
