Samsung - 36 in. Wide 24.6 cu. ft. French Door Refrigerator with Thru-the-Door Ice and Water - Stainless Steel

My husband and I have been looking at this fridge for "2" years (he doesn't like to rush into anything) and I have to say, with all the research we've done, looked at all specifications, spoken with friends and family about their fridge, what they liked and didn't like, I was thrilled when we FINALLY purchased this fridge. It keeps the food perfectly chilled, I love how the drawers for the veggies are right at my fingertips. Ice, there's tons of it. TONS of space in the freezer and the style is wonderful. My only concern were the fingerprints but when you use "Barkeepers Friend" as a cleanser, it's amazing! Many don't realize that when the film is peeled away, there is still residue on the fridge and noting will take it off, this is why there are fingerprints, but when you use "Barkeepers Friend", the fridge just sparkles! You can actually see the grain in the stainless steel, absolutely amazing! So besides the fridge being energy efficient, large inside, (love the blue lights) great size freezer and now sparkly from "Barkeepers Friend" it is everything we thought it was going to be. It may have taken us 2 years to purchase this fridge, but all the reviews, research and hours of comparison was worth it. I would recommend Samsung to everyone.

I initially purchased my refrigerator in June 2016, by September 2016 I noticed water under the Cool Select Pantry Tray. Apparently, water had built up over weeks. Although, I think the refrigerator is nice overall, I'm highly disappointed that Samsung would select just a horrible repair center (Nisi) for the Houston area. They were unresponsive and was never able to accommodate me with a date for repair. Months later I was able to get BestBuy's Geek Squad to come out for repair. It turned out that the water was leaking from the inside wall of the fridge which was unrepairable. Has anyone else had this problem?? I know have my second replacement as of February 2017 and it seems to be working fine. (yes, I dealt with cleaning water weekly due to the issues with the local repair center). The amount of water accumulated over a weeks time was about two large bowls. Yikes! I was not able to find any similar issues with this model, so I opted to receive the same model as my replacement. I can only hope that this was a one off issue.

My wife and I couldn't be happier about purchasing this fridge. It runs super quiet, has plenty of space to store anything we want, and it looks great. At first we though we wouldn't use half the features it came with, but now we use every one of them. I'm not going to go into detail because this is a review, but the ones that stand out for me are being able to adjust the temperature and the water filter couldn't be any easier to replace. The fridge has become known as the "Sexy A** Fridge" among our friends and is differently the focal point in our kitchen.

Bought this fridge about a month ago to replace a nearly 20 year old Kenmore. This one looks great, interior lighting makes it easy to find all food items, seems roomy and, although the noises it makes are very peculiar compared to what we were used to, it is way quieter than our previous fridge. My only criticism is that the "CoolSelect Pantry" drawer- a wide drawer used for fruits & vegetables, etc. requires BOTH doors of the refrigerator to be open. So if you want to just grab an apple, you need to open the entire fridge just to open the drawer. Not that big a deal and it is really the only criticism I have about it. This model Samsung fridge is also the only one that we found that had doors magnets could stick to. As I still have kids that like to look at alphabet letters, etc., this was a plus. Generally very happy with this fridge.

Everything about it works great, ice and water does not go everywhere when dispenses, ice a tad slow, water fast and even seems cold. I can see everything at a glance, plenty of room. Like the freezer in bottom. A++ so far, have had it only about 3 wks. Ask me again in a few yrs.
