Café - 36 in. Wide 22.2 Cu. Ft. French Door Counter-Depth Smart Refrigerator with Hot Water Dispenser, Customizable - Matte Black

We have only had this refrigerator for a week but we love it. The meat drawer is awesome. Freezer holds a ton of food. The lighting is great. Ice and water dispenser is sleek looking and functions well. In the pictures we had not yet added the recessed waterline, so it is actually more flush with the counters after we made that upgrade.

great fridge but the color is more dark blue than black. doesn't look like the picture. Hot water and precise fill is awesome.

Love it, we just upgrade from GE profile to the cafe appliances and couldn’t be happier, is fancy everything works well, and I can now have my tea ready when I wake up. Wouldn’t change to any other brand

We chose the Cafe' series in Matte White for the remodel which means our 15 y/o Kenmore Elite unit which was still kicking was sent to the garage. This one is counter depth which freed up some space in our kitchen but we don’t seem to notice the loss of space like others. No one has these in store to look at so it was like Christmas waiting for them to show up to match colors etc. There are several reviews that go into detail but let me focus on the few items that we have noticed in the last few months. Noise - I had hoped the reviews were wrong but this thing does make more noise than our old Kenmore. It seems to run about 80% of the time whereas the Kenmore was about 50%. Don’t really have other options so we deal with it but it does make noise and you just need to be aware. Protective Film – All I can say is it’s a royal pain to get the protective film off this thing. I know they want to protect it but the film was pitched with components. The water dispenser recess area was about an hour lot of fun to get the film pushed into the seam (Pic before clean up) Refrigerator Area Freeze Ups – Have had the top refrigerator area freeze liquid items twice. We used the recommended setting of 37 degrees but have since switched it to 40 degrees. I bought a NSF thermometer to put in the cooled area and it seems the refrigerator runs about 5 to 7 degrees lower than it says on the actual readout on the display. If it does it again I am calling GE for a repair. Even with those few issues we still are in love with our new refrigerator but I can say without question they really don’t make things like they used too (That’s all the manufactures)

We have had this unit for about 4 months. So far, so good with no issues. It is a very good looking refrigerator with a lot of features. I am a bit disappointed with the smallish amount of ice in the ice making unit. If you are looking for more ice making capability, an internal ice unit might make more sense.

Worst refrigerator!!! compressor died less than 2 months of installation. Ice maker is extremely slow in producing ice. I wish there was an extra storage tray for ice in the freezer. The storage ice bin is located on the left door of the refrigerator which barely has enough ice to put in an ice bucket. Awful design!!! The water dispenser only dispenses cold water enough to fill one glass after that it comes out luke warm. Wouldn't be as much of an issue if you could cool it with ice but never enough ice in the ice maker as stated above. Cafe appliance are not worth the money. The quality has gone down. Purchased an entire kitchen and one problem after another. Need to call service now for a second time now to repair a cafe oven... I would not recommend this product.

This unit looks fantastic. The only complaint would be from the noise level during the ice making process. When the water turns on to fill the ice maker, it is very loud. Too loud for a quality unit such as this.

We were incredibly excited to have this brand new Cafe refrigerator installed in our new kitchen! Unfortunately within 2 weeks the ice maker, refrigerator, and freezer completely stopped cooling. Upon reaching out to GE to request a replacement, they informed me that we were stuck with this unit -- and that they would send out a technician to repair this brand new refrigerator in roughly 4 weeks. After multiple escalations they agreed to send out a technician 1 week later. This has been the worst appliance purchase I have ever made & more importantly, this has been a horrible customer experience. I guess we should have kept our perfectly-running 9 year old Samsung for a backup. At this point we have no confidence in GE products or its support model. I will say that this product earned its single star in the rating for the following reason: At least this pile of junk looks nice from the outside. The inside lacks storage space in the refrigerator compartment due to the ice maker placement in the door, but from the outside the ice maker + water dispenser is aesthetically pleasing despite its low placement.

For about 4 months now since using the hot water feature daily our fridge door is leaking water.

I bought this a month ago and I'm happy with the space and features.
