A:AnswerThe RF197ACWP measures 32-1/4" wide by 69-3/4" high with the hinges (68-5/8" without) and 28-1/4" deep with the doors but without the handles. The case depth is 24-3/8" and the depth with the handles is 30-1/2".
Please also keep in mind that Samsung recommends leaving at least 2" above and behind the refrigerator and 1" on each side to allow for air circulation and ease of movement. If either side is opening into a wall or cabinet, you'll need at least 3-3/4" on that side to enable the door to open 90-degrees for access to the veggie drawer.

A:AnswerThanks for the question. The RF197 French Door has an automatic icemaker in the freezer, but it does not have the through-the-door ice and water dispenser. Models with this feature are available in both 33" and 36" styles. The slim 4-door RF4267 measures 32-13/16" wide by 69-7/8" tall with the hinges by 36-1/4" deep with the doors, but not including the handles; this model has a storage capacity of 25.5 cubic feet.
If you prefer one of the wider 36" designs, there are several options to choose from including the 26 cubic foot RF267; the larger capacity 3-door RFG296, RFG297 and RFG29P models; and the 4-door RF4287. All of these measure 35-3/4" wide by about 69-7/8" high with hinges and 33-3/4" deep with the doors, not including handles. There's also a counter depth model, RFG237, available with the same width and height as the latter options, but a depth of 28-1/2" with the doors but without handles. Please note that Samsung generally recommends leaving approximately 1-2 inches clearance on all sides of the refrigerator, depending on the model, so it's important to consider that when selecting the best option for you.
There are a number of other features that these models offer in addition to the ice and water dispenser - such as the Cool Select Pantry Drawer, Slide-n-Go Shelves, Dual Icemakers and Flex Zone Drawer - so I would suggest contacting your local Best Buy associates for assistance determining which model has the combination of features that best suits your needs.

A:AnswerThe RF197ACBP is 68-5/8" high to the top of the case. The tops of the door hinges measure about 69-3/4" from the ground, though this height can vary slightly depending on the amount of leveling required (the front legs can be adjusted for leveling). Samsung also recommends leaving about 2" clearance above the fridge to allow for sufficient air flow.
Thanks for your interest!

A:AnswerThanks for the question. The icemaker in your RF197ACRS is designed to turn off automatically when it's full, though it isn't unusual for a few cubes to fall out on occasion when the door is opened or closed quickly. I would suggest you check the feeler arm that hangs under the icemaker to make sure it isn't stuck in the "down" position, since this would prevent it from signaling to stop making ice.

A:AnswerThanks for the question. Samsung recommends a minimum room temperature of 50ºF for installation of the RF197ACPN; installing the fridge in a room that drops below 50ºF may impact performance. While there isn't a specific recommended humidity level, turning the Energy Saver function off will help to control condensation between the doors when humidity is high.

A:AnswerTo find a store near you that has this model on display, please call 888-BEST BUY. However, please be aware that Samsung doesn't recommend installing the RF197ACBP in a motor home due to the likely fluctuations in temperature and power, as well as the potential for movement and not being consistently level.
We appreciate your interest,
