Great fridge with a couple of suggestionsGreat fridge - spacious and well-lit. Water and ice functions are perfect. For the most part, a well-designed fridge.
Just a few things I discovered:
I had to get the installer back to adjust the fridge door hinge as the door had dropped slightly creating an uneven gap between the fridge and freezer.
I would suggest having taller metal stands on the inside door to hold tall glass bottles and keep them more secure.
When you open the door, it opens almost too freely and it doesn’t stop if you don’t have a good hold on it. The handle has hit the wall next to it a few times.

Great fridge (so far!)Got this fridge a couple weeks ago. Installation was a bit of a mission - had to get packaging removal at the door because it wouldn’t fit through. Once that was done, was put in place. The biggest single door that would fit in the cavity. Initially it made some compressor/buzzing noises, but now is quiet. Lots of room for 2 people!!
