Gathering the reviews
We continuously collect owner reviews and public discussions from major retailers and community forums, de-duplicate them, and set aside anything we can’t tie to a verified purchase.
Calculating the average
Averaged across every source we found (Amazon, AJ Madison, and other retailers). Each source counts in proportion to how many ratings it has, so a store with thousands of reviews moves the number more than one with only a handful.

“It's always hard to adjust to a different appliance. It works well but I miss my ice cube tray shelf in the freezer as I still make my own. And the shelves are less adjustable in the refrigerator area than my old refrigerator. But I am satisfied and love my white appliance for a great price!!”
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.
How much storage space does this refrigerator have?Based on 5 owner mentions
This model offers 20.5 cubic feet of total capacity. Reviewers consistently praise the spacious interior, noting that there is plenty of room for groceries and that the freezer compartment is particularly ample. Many owners appreciate that it provides more usable space than their previous refrigerators.
Does this refrigerator have a light in the freezer?Based on 5 owner mentions
No, this model does not include a light in the freezer compartment. Multiple reviewers note this as a missing feature, with some finding it inconvenient for locating items in the freezer.
What are the dimensions of this refrigerator?Based on 3 owner mentions
This model measures 32.8 inches wide, 66.3 inches tall, and 32.9 inches deep. These compact dimensions make it suitable for kitchens with limited space, and several reviewers specifically mention appreciating the size for fitting into smaller areas.
How quiet is this refrigerator?Based on 8 owner mentions
Most reviewers report that this model operates quietly and runs much quieter than their previous refrigerators. However, some owners note occasional humming, whining, or vibration noises, particularly when the compressor cycles. A few reviewers describe it as rather noisy, so experiences vary.
Does this model keep food at the correct temperature?Based on 6 owner mentions
Most reviewers report that the refrigerator keeps food properly cold and frozen when set to the recommended temperature. However, a recurring concern is that some units freeze items in the refrigerator compartment, particularly in the back center area, even at lower temperature settings. A few owners also report issues with the freezer door seal not closing securely, allowing frost to form on items stored near the front.
What is the warranty and service experience like?Based on 3 owner mentions
Several reviewers report frustration with Whirlpool's warranty service, noting that the company tends to send multiple service technicians rather than replace defective units, even when problems persist. Some owners experienced damaged or mismatched replacement parts and lengthy back-and-forth processes. Warranty coverage typically expires after one year, after which repair costs are the owner's responsibility.
Are the shelves adjustable and sturdy?Based on 5 owner mentions
This model features full glass shelving, which some reviewers appreciate for visibility and cleaning. However, several owners note that the shelves are not as adjustable as older models and that the glass shelves can bend under weight, requiring reinforcement. The drawer depths are also described by some as awkwardly sized, making interior organization challenging.
Is this a good value for the price?Based on 4 owner mentions
Most reviewers consider this a solid value, praising it as a basic, no-frills refrigerator at an affordable price point. Owners appreciate the straightforward design and reliable cooling function. Several note it is a good choice for those seeking simplicity without premium features or high cost.

My old refrigerator died about 1 month ago and I needed a new refrigerator. I love my new fridge. I went without one for 2 weeks before settling on this one. I’m so glad I did.
PicklesFeb 22, 2026 - Best basic refrigerator for the money
I bought this refrigerator a week ago and I was very impressed. It’s simple, clean and functional. I don’t need a refrigerator with WiFi or clear doors. Just a basic one that will last for years. The storage is great and the adjustable shelves make it easy to customize the space…
