Frigidaire - 18 Cu. Ft. Top-Freezer Refrigerator - Stainless steel

The new fridge holds more than my old one, partly because the shelves are the full width, rather than half-size adjustable shelves. It's nice that there are three options for the upper two shelves. (One shelf has low clearance but I solved this with a couple of clear acrylic bins.) Same with the freezer - I could pick two height options. It's definitely a lot quieter than my old clunker NOTE that if you want the door handles on the right rather than the left, be sure the salesperson puts that on the work order. Don't assume they do just because you talked about it!! If I were to improve this product, I would: 1. Put a light in the freezer 2. Give the freezer a little more room, especially in the door (some frozen food boxes didn't fit the new door). I couldn't fit everything I took out of my old freezer 3. Allow the buyer to change the height of the shelves in the fridge door 4. Make it easier to change the freezer shelf height (it was REALLY hard to change and there were NO instructions included!)

Bought this fridge to replace a 15 year old fridge that was dying. I was not sure what to think, as some of the reviews said the fridge looked nice, but was loud. I don't know what kind of fridges those reviewers had, but this one was much quieter than the one I had before. Yes, it does occasionally (maybe once every 2 or 3 hours), sound like mice are running around inside the fridge, but is really not very loud at all. I do love the stainless steel look of the fridge. I was really stuck because I had a certain cut out space, so I was limited in refridgerator purchasing options. Luckily this one looks great, but it is quite the fingerprint magnet. Overall, great fridge for the money. Yes, it is not silent, but my kitchen is near my living room / home theatre area, and it does not bother me whatsoever.

We bought a house and this was the only size refrigerator that would fit in the space made for the fridge. The over all look is nice (we got the matching gas range and over the range microwave). However since day one, the freezer door will not stay closed. Each time someone gets into the refrigerator, the freezer door pops open just enough to to let the ice, ice cream, etc melt. It’s quite annoying let me tell you. To keep the gallons of milk cold, I have it set to just below the coldest setting but then things on the top shelf freeze. I like to get groceries once every 2 weeks but because we are a larger family, I usually have to cut back on cold stuff because not every thing will fit in this fridge. So I find myself going to the store often for refrigerated items and gallons of milk.

I purchased this item to replace a similar refrigerator from another brand that was making irregular noises. To my surprises, the Frigidaire FFTR1821TW makes a lot of noise on a consistent basis. When inquiring about the noises with the manufacturer, Frigidaire assured me that the loud, popping, gurgling, and boiling noises (their words, not mine!) were to be expected in normal operation. While the unit cools well, it does not do so quietly. I'd go as far as to say the noise is often disruptive. I must not be the first to complain, because Frigidaire has provided me with two different "sound guide" documents that detail all of the noises coming from the appliance. I'd recommend purchasing from a different brand that offers a model that operates quietly.

Overall a nice fridge. Design seems good, runs quietly and cools quickly. My only gripe with the stainless model is the fact that the doors come covered with a blue plastic film for protection. That's nice but it is awful trying to remove it completely. Doesn't peel off easily and remains around the hinges and impossible to peel off around the door gaskets. Looks terribly messy. According to the installer "you'll be removing pieces for months". The other issue we had was a piece of missing hardware necessary to mount the freezer door handle. I don't think it's worth the extra cost for stainless. Get the white or black model instead.

Since day one, freezer leaks water into the refrigerator unit. Have to keep a bowl there to collect the water. Repairman came and said I had the freezer set too cold. However, when I set the freezer lower so it doesn't drip, my ice cream melts. When I set it so the ice cream stays frozen, the water drips into the refrigerator again. Best Buy said they would send another repairman, but sent the same one. Frigidaire no help. Will try to return to Best Buy. DON'T BUY.

I picked this model because it had a deli drawer and it's sleek look. It was on sale at the time when I was only looking to get a white refrigerator. The additional $50 was worth it. I then saw negative reviews how this is noisy like a pinball machine. But I don't really hear a whole lot of noise. I took a star off because the doors at times don't close when you thought it did close. Some ice cream melted because of this. We just have to give it the extra push to make sure the doors are closed.

Purchased for use in the basement wet bar as a beer fridge. Works great, and a better option for us than an under-the-counter fridge which we originally purchased. Overall it's a basic fridge but was a great buy with the sale. There is some insulation extruding from the door panel, but this is minimal and customer service said it is normal for these type of fridges. Comes wrapped in blue film that is a pain to remove, and we are still finding pieces still attached.
