Exceptional Built-in Option
Overall this is an exceptional refrigerator. Several years ago we had a high-end premium brand installed at our previous home, and it's worth noting that I actually like this KitchenAid much better. It's efficient and spacious, and the interior is well laid out providing plenty of storage options. We are a family of 8, and have found this 24.2 Cu. Ft. option to have plenty of space for everything we need. On the downside, there is no water dispenser. We have also discovered that the ice maker (even on MAX ICE MODE) does not create as much ice as we would like.

Great 42-Inch Upgrade, Though Freezer Is Smaller
Love this fridge! We’ve wanted a 42-inch model for a while. It’s not as deep as our old one, but everything is easier to see and access—nothing gets lost. Lots of great door storage and it looks beautiful in our kitchen. The freezer is smaller than our previous counter-depth LG, and it is pricey, but we’re hoping it lasts for many years.
