    • Dual Evaporation: true (A cooling system that works to create a stable climate for the refrigerator and freezer separately. This ensures that each compartment is able to maintain a separate humidity and temperature level ideal for the respective stored items.

    • Temperature Control Type: Electronic
    • Defrost Type: Manual (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: I have a 30-inch doorway into my kitchen. Will this 25.6 cu ft refrigerator fit through the doorway if the doors are removed? I read that the Best Buy installers will not remove the doors from the refrigerator if needed, yikes! Advice/help, please.

A: I have this same refrigerator with a 32 inch door way and because the handles stick out so far I had to remove all of the doors in order to get the refrigerator into the doorway

Q: We just had this refrigerator delivered today and after attaching the waterline, nothing comes out of dispenser (makes running noise though), as first time use, we hold down for more than 5 min but no luck. Waterline is fine and has proper water flow.

A: Hi Dipan, was your refrigerator delivered new in box or open box? If your fridge was delivered new in box there should be a filter included. If your fridge was delivered open box there may not be a filter or bypass filter plug installed. Make sure that your water is turned on and that the fridge has a filter or bypass filter plug installed. If there is not filter or plug installed the water and ice dispenser will not function. According to the manual a filter or bypass plug is required for ice and water dispenser to function. I will attached a photo from the manual that displays this information. In order to obtain a free bypass plug you can contact GE and they can ship you one. Make sure to take note of what style filter or bypass plug you need because there are a few styles available.

Q: How cold is the water dispensed from the fridge? Can you control the temperature of the water?

A: Hi Kamz - Bottom freezer and French door refrigerators have a water reservoir coil in the fresh food section that holds 12 - 24 oz. of water. The water is chilled and stored until it is needed. Since the reservoir is in the fresh food section, the water will not be ice-cold. After the 12 - 24 oz. of cold water is dispensed, any additional water dispensed will not be chilled until the water in the coil tubing has had time to chill again. There is not a separate temperature control for the water dispenser. Thanks for your interest! Sue

Q: what is the Ge factory warranty on this 25.5 ft3 refrigerator

A: I believe this GE refrigerator has a 1 year warranty. Here is my understanding of french-door refrigerator warranties: • GE, Whirlpool, Kenmore, Frigidaire – only 1 year • GE Profile and Café models – 5 years part & labor on sealed refrigerating system • LG – 7 years sealed-system parts, 10 years compressor (parts) • Samsung – 10 years compressor part, 5 year compressor labor, 5 years sealed system parts+labor, Warranties may vary by model.

Q: What is the difference between GFE26JSMSS ANDGFE26JMFS ????

A: Hi FreddyFred - Thanks for considering GE! We believe you are comparing GFE26JSMSS and GFE26JYMFS. Model GFE26JYMFS has our new fingerprint resistant stainless finish. Here' the complete comparison link: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/compare?skus=6404575,6191448 - Keep in touch at GEAppliances.com. Sue

Q: What is the difference between GE model GFE26JSMAFSS and GFE26JSMSS?

A: Hi Martym - GFE26JSMAFSS is actually the complete model number. When the model is manufactured, these extra letters (AF) are placed on the appliance rating plate and product registration card. These letters are used to identify manufacturing specific data when the appliance is made. Should service or parts be needed, these are used as identifiers for the specific appliance. Welcome to the GE Appliances family. Enjoy! Sue

Q: I purchased this refrigerator from Best Buy, but it will not be delivered for a month. Does this high gloss white refrigerator show fingerprints? How loud is the refrigerator?

A: It does not show fingerprints. It is on the nousy side, but not enough to bother me. Im really happy with my purchase!
