Wow, that's a fancy refrigerator! I get so many comments on this Cafe refrigerator. Everyone loves the look of it, comments on how roomy it is. We love the drawers, the look of it and the quality. The back lighting inside is awesome. It is well made and sturdy. I love it. The water even counts the ounces so you can use it to measure when making protein drinks, etc. It is easy to organize and looks awesome!

Not cooling properly after 1 year. The upper refrigerator is not cooling as it should, only gets down to 44 degrees. This is with the frig temperature set to 34, which is the lowest it will go. The drawer and the freezer are currently working and cool to their set temps. Thankfully I purchased the extended warranty from Geek Squad. They came out and said the fan and temperature sensor need to be replaced, but they are on backorder.
The Cafe app is nice to be able to see what temperature each compartment is set to, but would be more helpful if it would tell you the actual internal temperature so you'd know when there is an issue. I've since installed a temperature alarm from Thermoworks, to monitor the frig and freezer temperatures and alert me if they are above what they should be.
I purchased 4 Cafe appliances together, it's disappointing this didn't last longer especially at this price.

I have had my GE Cafe for a few months now and LOVE IT! I am so happy I bought it and would definitely recommend. If I had a suggestion, it would be that the ice cubes be bigger because they are somewhat hollow, they melt quickly. But it makes ice faster that way, I get it. Very happy with Best Buy and the sales team (Cronenworth) and delivery team.

Cafe' 27.6 Cu. Ft. 4-Door Refrigerator

As of now, I Love this Refrigerator. We have only had it for a few months, but for now all is well. You would expect this from a High End Brand such as Cafe'. However, I purchased a Cafe' Oven and after 7-months the oven light will not go off and if I try to use the oven it says the oven door is open. I'm certain repairs are expensive. Buy the extended warranty.

Due to current supply issues, had to wait quite some time for the fridge. I ordered the black handles, but advise that I would take delivery separately so as not to delay delivery of fridge. This was ignored and the schedule was pushed out twice. First time a week, then another 6 weeks. I called and complained and told them to deliver fridge without the additional handles. Fridge came within a couple of days, but was damaged. second took another week, but have been happy so far.
Hello there, we're pleased to know you're happy now, but sorry your delivery was delayed and that your first unit arrived damaged. This is certainly not the experience we want for our consumers so we can imagine your disappointment. The pandemic put a lot of stress on our business causing availability issues and delays so we appreciate your patience. We're wishing you the best moving forward and we're glad to have you in our Cafe Appliances family. - Guy@GEA

Whisper-quiet, frost-free perfection

This Café four-door fridge has been a dream. It runs so quietly I sometimes check to be sure it is on, yet the temperature stays rock steady—my ice cream goes back in smooth and comes out the same, never a hint of frost. The brushed stainless finish resists fingerprints, the interior lighting is bright, and the doors feel solid every time I open them. Adjustable shelves and the convertible middle drawer let me switch from party platters to extra produce without fuss. Beautiful, dependable, and worth every penny.

When the cold water dispenser reaches 8 ounces plus the water is warm so i have to add ice- I have well water that is a little warmer than room temperature which may be the cause when the cooled water from the fridge runs out , but i would have tought the amount of water stored in the fridge would be more than 8 ounces

This has been a great fridge. I shopped in store and online for a long time trying to pick what we were looking for. It's crazy expensive especially compared to other fridges with the same features. You're paying for the look of it. I like the multi zone temperatures so that I can make the middle section a different temp than the main fridge.

This refrigerator is stunning! What I love most is the back panel that lights up as soon as you open the fridge. It was an instant hit for me as soon as I saw it. Plus, only this line from GE features that unique design.

Excellent purchase this refrigerator is amazing addition to our kitchen, with so many features and able to connect WiFi.
My preference controller for the convenience of having 2 freezers or just adjusting the temperature to my needs. My 5 years old grandson loves the section for he’s snacks and portion of the freezer with ice cream of he’s choice. Definitely will recommend the entire CAFE appliances..

I debated the purchase of the Cafe refrigerator. No doubt you can spend less, but I am so happy with it. It's beautiful and everyone who sees it just stops in front of it and says wow. I also debated the extra drawer and it is wonderful - I keep wine, cans of sparkling water and cheese in it. I was worried about freezer capacity and no need to worry. The two pull out shelves and bottom bins make it easy to organize and see what gave. Plus the added space up front for small items keeps them handy. Water flow and precision fill are great. Produce staying fresh beyond my old refrigerator. Ice cubes are small and melt fast, so that is the only complaint I have. They crush up nicely thought. I saw some reviews mentioning ice flies out everywhere - I haven't experienced this problem, but I hold my glass up to the dispenser. And the delivery experience was the best experience I have ever had. Thank you, Best Buy, for that part!

Absolutely love this fridge. It looks beautiful and the inside even has a great look. I was unsure if I would like the 2 bottom drawers over just one however the middle drawer comes in very helpful for the kids. Would definitely recommend and we love the White!

Tried Stainless Steel but didn’t work out. Turned dark in the kitchen and really conflicted with the white kitchen. The matte white GE Cafe version is perfect. Return was easy.

Is it wrong to be in LOVE with a Refrigerator?
Been married over 34 years and have owned several different brand refrigerators over the years from top freezer, side by side, french door. All around the same cubics but my new GE Cafe is by far my absolute favorite!! The way they designed this is amazing. I feel like I have so much more room with the way they laid it out and it is Gorgeous as well. Thank you GE for making such an amazing refrigerator. So glad we chose this to go in our newly remodeled kitchen <3

Amazing Fridge

This fridge is a major upgrade for my home. I love the size, the LED lighting and the fact that it’s quiet. The autofill feature is really nice as well. While it doesn’t have the LED screen or some of the new technology, it makes it up with how aesthetically pleasing the fridge looks in a kitchen. It’s way nicer than a lot of similar brands like kitchen aid. The freezer is also massive in side. This thing is great.

Sooooo beautiful but soooo many problems! First one got and after three weeks, stopped working, lost all our groceries. Had to wait 4 weeks to locate another one and 2 hours after receiving new one, the ice maker started burning up, had to unplug. Waiting for third one in less than 3 months so we’ll see….
I have high hopes since it’s gorgeous and I love the overall design and space.

We can certainly understand how this would dampen the excitement for an appliance you purchased. We do hope that your replacement model arrives soon. All the best and thanks for choosing us for your home. -Michael@Cafe

Buyer beware of manufacturing location and ice cub

This is a higher end fridge and you would expect an high end product. Buyers need to be careful where the fridge is manufactured. I had one fridge that was out of the box and the delivery people indicated there was denting on the sides and a front door gasket was not aligned. The side panels seemed flimsy and I am glad the delivery people requested a replacement. The second fridge delivered was a much better build quality with no issues. When I checked with my sales person, the indication was since the company had been sold to HIAR, the build issue may have come out of China and the second was built in the northern USA. Secondly, if you like big ice cubes, this is NOT the fridge for you. The cubes are much smaller than any other fridge I have had in the past.
Hey GE2020, thanks for taking a moment to reach out to us. We'll be sure to share your comments with our product team for future consideration. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and will help us make improvements down the road. We're wishing you the best! - Guy@Cafe
