Posted by: from Gainesville, VA on 01/06/2012This refrigerator does not have a water dispenser inside the door or inside the fridge but because of the width issue this was the only model that would fit and I do like the French Doors

Posted by: from Spokane WA on 12/28/2011For the price this fridge is great , I know some people complain about lack of space but I have had not problem, I could see it being a problem if I had more people living with me, but its just me and the girlfriend.

Smart and Sleek

Posted by: from Rochester, MN on 11/16/2011Overall very happy with the performance of the appliance. The only negative as many other reviews say is the inflexibility of placing the levels, its just too few options especially when you have bigger bottles like juices etc. to put. If you can live with that then this is perfect for a small width space.

Looks Great

Posted by: from Upland, CA on 11/10/2011Refrigerator fit perfect in the small space I had, but only lasted less than a week before breaking down. Poor design when it comes to the water inlet tube, mounted just above the refrigerator circuit board. Water leaked into the circuit board compartment, which fried the circuit board. Returned refrigerator for a Kitchen Aid, which had more features.

Unbelievable buzzing sound, Samsung denies it.
1
Posted by: from Baltimore on 10/25/2011I am very tolerant of appliances, but this purchase will be my last samsung product ever. The refrigerator makes a very loud buzzing sound. I called Samsung and they referred me to a support page which simply said the buzzing sound was "normal". This is complete horse hockey. a) The fridge made no such sound for the first five weeks and then started making it all the time. b) Moreover if I nudge the fridge a bit it stops for a while. Clearly there is a design flaw with some part on or near the main compressor motor which gets loose and cause this sound. My flooring is floor vinyl over a very study subfloor, is solid, and is not either the cause or an amplifying factor because the sound comes directly from the rear lower compartment where the compressors are. Looking on the web I see scores of complaints about this. Designs always are changing change, and I don't blame Samsung for having this problem, but I CANNOT believe that's rather than coming up with a repair solution (probably some bushing retrofit or some type of faster that doesn't loosen,) they simply say it is normal. Samsung obviously has a known issue here. Their claim at several support levels that they have no complaints on it, when it is fully in 1/3 of all the reviews (and many reviews not noting it were probably done by people who had the fridge for a week) is just very POOR post purchase support

Great Fridge...Low Price

Posted by: from Tallahassee, FL on 10/13/2011This fridge is amazing! My husband and I bought it a few months ago and it has been a dream! The veggies last twice as long if you set up the temperature as it specifies on the instructions and it just works great! The bottom freezer shuts by itself and the handle is baby-cat-dog-proof!

Poor shelf adjustment options
1
Posted by: from Twin Cities on 09/18/2011Shortly after delivery, I realized that there are 2 full-width shelves, but only 3 slots to put them in leaving me with no way to store more than 2 pitcher-like containers the heighth of a milk carton, juice bottle, pitcher for lemonade or iced tea, wine bottle(10.5"), etc., except to store on their sides. The only shelf arrangement that would work would be to put the 2 adjustable shelves in the 2 lower slots, which left me with the two shelves so close together that one was completely unusable (less than 2: high) and the other ony 4". I talked with Samsung Service assuming I must be missing something, but they agreed that I had tried everything and there is no way to store 10" containers without creating useless 2" and 4" high shelves. Thanks to Best Buy's return policy, this one has been returned in favor of an LG with fully adjustable split shelves.
