    Great so far!

    Nice looking Fridge. The cavity is very spacious even with the ice and water maker. Ample room for all your goods for the chiller and the freezer.

    Cafe GE refrigerator defects

    The refrigerator purchased from Best Buy was dropped when it was delivered breaking a wheel. Upon exchange the second refrigerator had a botched paint job on one door and slightly on the other. A third one was delivered with same issue. I have been unsuccessful in getting ahold of a manager or anyone with authority to fix the problem and it’s been close to two months since I originally ordered.

    Great looking fridge

    Bought this fridge along with the other matching appliances as part of our kitchen remodel project. I absolutely hate stainless steel appliances, so the black slate gave me a sophisticated finish that I love. The fridge is much roomier than our last one and well lit. Freezer has plenty of space too and I appreciate the upper drawer. I don't agree with previous reviewer complaints about the instability of the freezer door/drawer construction. You can hear the motor when it kicks on, but it's not disruptive or overly loud and I don't have to turn up the TV because of it (Our last fridge sounded like a jet engine warming up...). We don't have the water line hooked up yet since we're not done with cabinets so can't speak to that as of yet. Overall a great purchase (outside of the price).

    A really nice refrigerator

    This is a great fridge that can make hot water! There have been a few glitches that were repaired by GE under warranty. New out of the box, apparently the hot water dispenser had a bad temperature sensor. That part was replaced. Later the display malfunctioned. That was replaced. Both repairs were over 6 months ago and (fingers crossed), no issues since.

    Good size and features but poor performance

    The door is so heavy that over time it has pulled the door hinge and broken it so that it does not close properly. The ice maker drips into the ice bin so the ice gets clogged in the dispenser.

    Great design and features.

    I love the design and features of this refrigerator. The only flaw I can comment on is not enough space for tall items like milk jugs or juice bottles. Everything else is great.

    Great refrig

    I really like the refrigerator. Only down fall is the amount of space on the doors. Not enough. Milk spoils much quicker than on other frig.

    Best Refrigerator

    Bought first french door to replace a Kitchenaid side by side which failed within the first 60 days. The Cafe version matches the style of our home. We chose the full depth size and It has much more room than our previous side by side. It is beautifully designed and has efficient storage space - highly recommended!!
