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.

What owners talk about most
“I've only had the unit for one week, but so far I am happy with my purchase. It's very quiet when running. My only small "complaints" are about the freezer compartment, i.e., no light and door shelves are too narrow so as to make them almost useless.”
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.
This model offers 19 cubic feet of total capacity and is praised by most owners for its spacious layout and flexible shelving. Reviewers consistently highlight the generous room for storing tall bottles, half-gallon containers, and a variety of food items, with many noting it holds significantly more than their previous refrigerators.
Most reviewers report that this model runs very quietly during normal operation. Several owners specifically praise its quiet performance as a standout feature, though a small number of users have reported unexpected noise issues.
No, this model does not include a light in the freezer compartment. This is a recurring point of feedback—many owners wish it had one, though most note it is not a deal-breaker for their overall satisfaction with the unit.
Several reviewers report that the freezer door shelves are open-bottomed, causing items to slide or fall out easily. Some owners also note the shelves are narrower than expected, making them difficult to use for storing certain items like bagels or ice packs. This design choice appears to be a cost-saving measure that some find frustrating.
A notable pattern of reviews reports temperature inconsistency—some owners experience freezing in the back of the refrigerator section even after adjusting settings, while others report the freezer temperature fluctuating unpredictably. Additionally, this model uses a single temperature control for both the refrigerator and freezer rather than separate controls, which limits independent adjustment.
Experiences vary significantly. Several owners report their units lasting 10–23 years with reliable performance, and many are satisfied after owning it for weeks or months. However, a notable group of owners report failures or serious issues within 1–5 years, including compressor problems, seal failures, and component breakdowns. Whirlpool's warranty service has been used by some owners to address early defects.
Most owners view this as a solid value refrigerator, particularly for its spacious interior and quiet operation at a mid-range price point. Reviewers appreciate that it delivers essential cooling performance without unnecessary features, though some note the plastic components feel less premium than higher-end models.

What Owners Say

I like everything about my refrigerator except for the fact that there is no light in the freezer compartment.
I especially love the arrangement of this fridge! It is exactly what I like. Plenty of room for all the various items I stock.
Very nice refrigerator. Runs very quiet Very well designed
It was delivered a week ago. It has lots of storage for the size. I bought it sight unseen except for a picture. My issue is that it doesn't have a kick plate and you can see the wheels and legs. So with that when they delivered and installed a shim was needed due to uneven…
Very good unit that matched our stove perfectly. Easy to change shelves. Very pleased
