“Is this model smudge proof and does it have a ice maker in the bottom part of the freezer? how often does the water filter need to be changed and if you don't, will the fridge quit producing water for the ice?”

Hi Shannon, Based on our research we are finding that this unit has a fingerprint resistant stainless steel finish. This will reduce fingerprints and smudges to the face of the unit. There is no ice maker in the freezer section but rather, the ice maker is located inside of the left door of the fresh food section. This allows you to use the dispenser to call for ice whenever you would like. We recommend changing your filter about every 6 months for the most optimal filtration. We are also finding that these are the filters that your unit needs: https://www.geapplianceparts.com/store/parts/KeywordSearch?q=xwf&icid=WFLP_Spec_XWF - Also, once the 6 month period is reached, your unit will still dispense water, though the longer you wait to change your filter, the more likely you are to potentially see slower water flow from your dispenser. We hope that this helped! Thank you so much for your question. -Michael
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Ice maker is in left door area of upper refrigerator. Filter to be replaced in about 6 months if needed - otherwise continue water flow by inserting a plug (requested by e-mail from GE and received in about a week). Seems pretty smudge-proof to me.
