What owners say

Owners say the refrigerator is roomy inside and looks great, with simple controls and food that stays cold. Some say the ice maker works well, while others note there is no ice maker and that a cheese drawer is missing. Noise is a frequent complaint, and some owners report that the shelves and drawers or doors and seals fall short.
