    • Dual Evaporation: false (A cooling system that works to create a stable climate for the refrigerator and freezer separately.

    • Defrost Type: Frost free (Ice build-up can reduce the appliance’s cooling capacity, making it work harder and consume more energy. Defrosting is necessary to maintain its efficiency and each type has its own advantages depending on user needs and preferences. Manual defrost appliances require unplugging to melt ice naturally, but offer more space, lower energy consumption, and lower cost without the internal heating element. Frost-free appliances regulate temperature to prevent ice build-up automatically. Automatic defrost systems use a timer to circulate heat and prevent ice accumulation, while adaptive defrost systems use sensors to determine the optimal times for heat circulation.)

Q: Is the silver finish like stainless? What are the black door handles made of?

A: Hi rainy-this is Sue from GE Appliances. Silver is a painted finish that looks like stainless. It is a cost effective alternative for a stainless look in the kitchen. Also, it is easy to clean and does not show fingerprints or smudges. Use soap and water to clean. The handle is smooth, durable black plastic. Thanks for checking with us!

Q: Is this fridge available with the handle and opening on the right side instead of the left?

A: Hello Door - The handle/opening direction can be reversed on this model. There are detailed steps for this in the installation instructions for the unit. -TREY@GEA

Q: What is the width of this refrigerator?

A: Hi Lettie- This is Sue at GE Appliances. Thanks for considering our GE® ENERGY STAR® 17.5 CU. FT. TOP-FREEZER REFRIGERATOR GIE18GCHSA! This model is 28" wide (Approx. Dimensions (HxWxD) 67 3/8 in x 28 in x 32 1/2 in). Also, check out the Quick Spec for additional dimensions and clearance requirements: http://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=310422_gie18gch_c2.pdf - We hope it fits. Keep in touch!

Q: Does this have to be hooked up to a waterline to use the ice maker? Does it open right to left?

A: Hi MsryAlice- This is Sue at GE Appliances. Thanks for viewing our GE® ENERGY STAR® 17.5 CU. FT. TOP-FREEZER REFRIGERATOR GIE18GSHSS! Yes, a water line is required for the factory-installed icemaker. Also, the door swing is reversible for flexible installation (it is assembled with the hinges on the right- opens left to right). Also, if a water line is not available, you might be interested in GE® ENERGY STAR® 17.5 CU. FT. TOP-FREEZER REFRIGERATOR GTE18GSHSS without the factory- installed icemaker (It is equipped for an optional icemaker IM4D sold separately). Thanks for checking with us!
