    • Refrigerator Style: French Door
    • Dual Evaporation: true (A cooling system that works to create a stable climate for the refrigerator and freezer separately.

    • Temperature Control Type: Electronic
    • Defrost Type: Manual (Ice build-up can reduce the appliance’s cooling capacity, making it work harder and consume more energy. Defrosting is necessary to maintain its efficiency and each type has its own advantages depending on user needs and preferences. Manual defrost appliances require unplugging to melt ice naturally, but offer more space, lower energy consumption, and lower cost without the internal heating element. Frost-free appliances regulate temperature to prevent ice build-up automatically. Automatic defrost systems use a timer to circulate heat and prevent ice accumulation, while adaptive defrost systems use sensors to determine the optimal times for heat circulation.)

GE 27.7 Cu. Ft. French Door Refrigerator with Thru-the-Door Ice and Water: This spacious, stylish refrigerator keeps the refrigerator and freezer compartments at different humidity levels, to help preserve your fresh food longer and keep freezer burn off frozen goods. Two icemakers ensure that you'll have plenty of crushed and cubed ice for your family and guests.

Refrigerator Buying Guide

  • Keep groceries fresh in both compartments: Twin Chill Evaporators maintain a high humidity level in the fresh-food compartment and a lower humidity level in the freezer compartment to help prevent freezer burn.
  • Quickly restore the chill after opening doors: Turbo Cool and Turbo Freeze options can lower the temperature of either compartment in minutes so foods stay at the proper temperature.
  • Humidity-controlled crispers keep food fresh: 2 crispers help keep fruits and vegetables at their best. Another full-width drawer has 3 temperature setting and an internal divider for separating deli meats, cheeses and produce.
  • Organize shelf contents with ease: 4 half-width, adjustable shelves and 1 full-width shelf provide ample space for storing groceries. 3 spill-proof shelves contain small spills, and the Quick Space shelf slides back to accommodate taller items.
  • Customize door bin size to use space efficiently: 2 adjustable gallon-size door bins and 4 smaller bins provide storage for large and small containers.
  • Access filtered water and cubed or crushed ice with the push of a button: Thru-the-door ice and water dispenser with filtration that removes impurities, so you don't have to buy bottled water to ensure a fresh taste.
  • Tall dispenser opening for hassle-free filling of pitchers: Designed for spill-free pouring into tall glasses and containers.
  • Control settings from the dispenser's LED display: You can also enable the Child Lock to prevent unwanted access.
  • Locate items you need in any lighting condition: High-efficiency LED lighting in compartments emits minimal heat, helps conserve energy and offers a space-saving design.
  • Produce and store more ice with dual ice makers: The upper ice maker is designed to save space in the refrigerator, while the freezer's includes an ice tray for extra storage.
  • Free delivery on appliance orders $399 and up: For new water line connections, special installation is required which is not included with delivery. Call 1-888-BEST BUY (1-888-237-8289) to find out more and to purchase installation.
