Q: Since this isn't a true counter-depth refrigerator wouldn't the cutout dimensions listed for the width (36 inches) be incorrect and would be the same cutout width as the GSS23GSKSS model, fitting an opening that is 33 inches wide by 70.25 inches tall?

A: Hello- Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. We will get this corrected. The width is 32-3/4 and we recommend 1/8 of an inch clearance on each side. You are correct, the width needed is 33 inches. We hope this is helpful! Please reach out to us directly if you have any additional questions. Thank you! Joyce@GEA

Q: Can the water and ice be used without the filter installed?

A: Hello - We'd love to help with this great question. The water dispenser and icemaker will not operate without the filter or filter bypass plug in place. You must use the water filter bypass plug that comes with the refrigerator when a water filter cartridge is not installed. We sure hope this helps! Have a great day. -Shayla@GEA

Q: Is this energy star rated

A: Change the third model letter from a "S" to a "E" to get the "energy efficient" model. It's $ 700 more expensive! You get a couple of extra shelves but looking at the electrical specs, it would never make back that $700 in anyone's lifetime.

Q: Can this be ordered without the ice and water filters set up?

A: This model doesn't come without the dispenser. If you are asking if you have to connect the water to the icemaker, you don't have to. We just recommend that you turn your icemaker off if it won't be connected. Joyce@GEAppliances

Q: Why would my new, 14 day old stop dispensing & the red light come on indicating a filter problem?

A: Hello - Thanks for reaching out; we'd be glad to help. If using an XWFE filter, the reasons the water filter will flash a red light can be due to a bad or damaged filter, the filter is wet, or the filter is expired. Change the water filter or install the bypass plug with the RFID sensor to resolve. Proper installation of the filter can be found on pages 9 and 10 of the owner's manual. Please contact us via social media with your model and serial number if you need additional assistance. We hope this helps! Best wishes. -Shayla@GEA

Q: I have err mess on my ice maker I just changed the filter

A: If “Err” is on the display, the filter is not detected or there is no communication with the filter. Verify that you have the XWFE filter and not the XWF. Verify there are no scratches or filter label damage. Replace the filter if the filter label shows damage. Lauren@GEAppliances

Q: Is there a freezer?

A: Yes the left side is the freezer

    Works as advertised

    Keeping things cold and delivering ice and water with no issues so far. Can be a bit loud at times but doesn’t last long. Ordered 2 generic sliding drawers for fridge as it didn’t come with deli drawer. Lots of room in fridge door. Freezer small but I think sufficient for me. I wanted the shiny white but it wasn’t available to order so I got the stainless. I ordered in June, delivered in August. So far I am satisfied with the purchase.

    New fridge

    I love my new fridge. It’s very roomy with well designed use of space. I can put more food in it than my previous fridge even though it’s only three cubic feet larger. Having the ice and water dispenser is such a convenience and the hands free water is so nice. I don’t have to keep holding the glass while it fills. Automatic overflow protection is great too.
