KitchenAid 25.8 Cu. Ft. 36" Multi-Door Freestanding Refrigerator W/ Platinum Interior Design & Printshield Finish In Black Stainless Steel Krmf706ebs

A small number of owners report the refrigerator making loud or constant noise since installation, which was unexpected and frustrating. However, this is not a widespread complaint across the majority of reviews.

Owners who have recently purchased report that setup is relatively easy, with clear instructions and helpful video guides provided. Adjusting the doors and initial configuration are described as simple processes, though delivery wait times have been lengthy for some customers.

This model offers 25.8 cubic feet of capacity with dimensions of 35.6 inches wide, 70.1 inches tall, and 36.3 inches deep. Reviewers consistently praise the spacious interior and flexible drawer layout, with many noting it provides ample room for families and helps organize food efficiently.

Owners consistently highlight the soft-close drawers, separate temperature-controlled produce and meat compartments, pull-out drawer organization, and the French-door design with excellent visibility. The quality of the handles and overall aesthetic appeal are also frequently praised by satisfied customers.

Multiple reviewers report persistent freezer problems, including excessive ice buildup that requires manual defrosting, inconsistent cooling temperatures, and ice maker failures. These issues have been reported across different ownership periods and often recur even after repairs, with some owners experiencing compressor or defrost cycle failures.

Several owners report ice maker malfunctions, including failure to produce ice, ice melting and refreezing inside the storage bin, and water leaking from the dispenser. Some reviewers also note water line design flaws that introduce air into the system, and water damage to control panels located beneath the dispenser.

Experiences vary significantly. Some owners report the unit failing or requiring major repairs within 3–5 years, while others have owned the same model for 8+ years with satisfaction. Several owners who purchased extended warranties found them necessary due to recurring issues, though parts availability and repair timelines have been problematic for some.
