What owners say

Owners say the refrigerator is roomy inside, cools quickly, and runs quietly. They appreciate adjustable shelves and an inside water dispenser that makes filling tall bottles easy. Some owners say the ice maker makes too little ice, and repair or warranty experiences draw more negative than positive comments.
