What owners say ★★★★
“I bought my new fridge a couple of months ago and so far I really like it. My only problem with it is when they change the door handle and at the top of the fridge they moved the hinge but now there’s no cover over where the hinge used to be. I really thing some kind of cover should be there.”

Owners Answer

The questions shoppers ask, answered from real owner reviews and discussions across the web — not the manufacturer spec sheet. See the spec FAQ below for the official numbers.

What do owners like most about this refrigerator?Based on 9 owner mentions

Reviewers consistently praise the bottom-freezer design for convenience and eye-level access to the refrigerator section, eliminating the need to bend over. The spacious interior, adjustable shelving, fingerprint-resistant stainless steel finish, and quiet operation are frequently highlighted as standout features. Many owners also appreciate the compact footprint, which fits well in kitchens with space constraints.

Is this refrigerator easy to install and customize?Based on 2 owner mentions

Installation is straightforward according to reviewers. The shelves are easy to move and remove to accommodate different storage needs, such as taller jars or beverages. The flexible interior layout allows owners to customize the space to fit their specific requirements.

Will this refrigerator fit in a smaller kitchen space?Based on 4 owner mentions

Yes. This model is designed for kitchens with limited space and has been specifically chosen by owners with custom cabinetry or tight kitchen layouts. The dimensions are 29.6 inches wide, 67 inches tall, and 33.4 inches deep, making it a compact option that does not sacrifice quality or appearance.

What are the known issues with the drawers?Based on 15 owner mentions

Multiple reviewers report that the refrigerator and freezer drawers are difficult to open and close smoothly, with some noting they lack rollers and feel flimsy or cheap. Several owners mention the drawers require two hands to operate safely and do not slide as easily as expected. This is a recurring concern across reviews, though it does not prevent the unit from functioning.

Does this refrigerator have a water filter for the ice maker?Based on 3 owner mentions

No. This model does not include a water filter system for the ice maker. Some reviewers appreciate the simplicity of not needing a filter, while others have reported that the ice has a plastic or chemical taste initially. A few owners have noted this is unusual for a refrigerator with an ice maker feature.

How does the ice maker perform?Based on 5 owner mentions

The ice maker generally works well and produces good-quality ice cubes. However, some reviewers note it lacks an automatic shut-off feature and requires manual operation. One owner reported a leak that required a replacement part. Initial ice may have a slight plastic taste, which typically clears after a period of use.

Does this refrigerator keep food at the right temperature?Based on 5 owner mentions

Yes, the refrigerator maintains proper food storage temperatures. Some reviewers found they needed to adjust the temperature setting from the manufacturer's recommended level to achieve their preferred cold settings. Overall, owners report that food stays fresh and the freezer keeps items properly frozen.

Is this refrigerator quiet?Based on 2 owner mentions

Yes, most owners report the refrigerator runs very quietly compared to their previous models. One reviewer noted they no longer need to adjust television volume. Some owners mention hearing a normal "clunk and whirring" sound when the fan adjusts itself, which is typical operation.

  • Fits!

    I have a limited size space for a refrigerator, so this was the perfect size. I couldn't get this model when I wanted it post couldn't, so I am happy to have it now.

  • Very Pleased

    I purchased this refrigerator because I was tired of leaning over to get into my previous top-freezer model. This bottom-freezer model is exactly what I hoped... eye level view of inside the unit without bending over. I also really like the interior set-up of the refrigerator…
