Q: Does this refrigerator have wheels? Are there coils on the back or is it underneath? Can you buy an additional freezer shelf? Thanks

A: Hello KenC, the Refrigerator does have wheels on the front of the Refrigerator. The coils are located underneath. We do not recommend adding any additional shelves to the Freezer. Hopefully this information is beneficial to you. Thank you for your inquiry regarding our Whirlpool appliances!

Q: it says under product spec it measures 32 3/4 in width but the cut out spec says 36 width. why that much difference? The cut out space in our kitchen is at 36 width max if not tighter, will this ref fit in?

A: susan, To ensure proper ventilation for your refrigerator, you will need to allow for ¹⁄₂" (1.27 cm) of space on each side and at the top. Allow for 2" (5.08 cm) of space behind the refrigerator. Also, if you are installing your refrigerator next to a fixed wall, you will need to leave a 2" (5.08 cm) minimum space on each side (depending on your model) to allow the doors to swing open. We would not recommend installing the Refrigerator into a smaller cutout dimension that what is described in the Installation Instructions.

Q: interior view of refirgerator

A: Hi, you can see a picture of the interior by visiting the link provided. We hope this helps! http://bit.ly/2Ez7vXJ

A: Hello, Thank you for your inquiry on our Whirlpool® appliances. Yes, this Refrigerator, model WRS312SNHW, has the option to install an Icemaker Kit (W11510803). Hope this helps!

    Nice appliance

    Well designed use of storage space, LED lights are great for being able to see everything. It is a bit noisy but still quieter than the one I had previously.

    great space, great side by side

    Only have had for a month but love the shelving/layouts of both freezer/fridge. Top refrigerator shelf does freeze some items in way back on ideal chill setting but all stays plenthy chilled on 2nd cool setting.

    Love this Fridge

    This fridge is just what we were looking for. It is a real pain in the neck finding a refrigerator that doesn't have a build in ice maker that isn't a low end model. The wire shelves in freezer are not optimal and it could use another shelf in the fridge but everything else is just as we wanted.
