    For being a fairly expensive fridge the quality is not quite there. Seems to be working just fine, but the outside corners where the plastic meets the white are coming up. Gaps, some with glue, which will become filed with grime over time. Also the plastic wrap does not come all the way off

    I absolutely love the look of this refrigerator in our new kitchen. The “brushed gold” hardware looks more rose gold and I wish the white side panels weren’t sold separately. Thank goodness we purchased the extended warranty, the compressor went out after only 14 months, now it is super loud but the tech says that’s “normal” also the water dispenser should have the push button on the bottom to lean a cup on to fill.

    warranty service is the worst. compressor went out in the first year. It was covered but so difficult to get a live person and when you do they transfer you to another and another 30 min plus hold. Looks fabulous but that's about it.

    I researched my appliances and opted for the GE Range with two oven then looked for the matching refrigerator. I love this refrig especially with the brass handles and I kept the stainless steel ones in case I want to swap them back at some point. I’ve had side by side models in the past, so this was a change that I really like. I wanted clean lines and had read door ice and water dispensers can be an issue since you have a ice dispenser on the refrigerated portion of your model. That is not specific to this model, but a technician’s comment in general. I opted for water dispenser on the inside and it works well that way. The inside is very bright with lights that illuminate back into the fridge and it’s spacious with all the drawers and shelves. You do have to intentionally push the doors closed, but it will signal if the doors are ajar. I’ve learned to open and close it with the handles since fingerprints will show on the front, but it’s easy to clean. Overall, I’m very happy with this GE Cafe model.

    bestbuy had it in stock for us sooner than any other seller we could find, local and big box. the fridge is a thing of beauty when complete, the counter depth is noticeably more shallow than standard and we don’t (so far) miss food getting lost behind other things. lighting is great. ice maker is very loud and considering looking for a silicone bucket or liner to see if this would help reduce noise. the freezer interior drawer is tethered to the main freezer door and does not pull out smoothly. the big hiccup with the fridge is that the manufacturer shipped without the handles and took hours on the phone, at least four separate calls with best buy employees and with LG representatives. if something like this happens to your order, go directly to LG, otherwise bestbuy submits a return for your fridge and ships a new one, planning on leaving the new fridge without handles, and then having to deal with the same issue for somebody else. aside from that, it’s been a few weeks and i’d totally update my review if it’s possible to do so in a year or so. oh, and the sides are black

    The refrigerator is great and exactly what we wanted. Unfortunately, the system was delivered with several scratches on the corners of the door, so we have to schedule an exchange. Swapping the contents from one machine to another is a hassle. BB support was great and offered to exchange it as soon as possible, but it shouldn't have been delivered that way.

    I have loved this unit. It looks much more expensive than it costs, like a restaurant grade refrigerator. My little kids haven't managed (and they try) to dent, scratch or pull handles/doors off. Impressive! Keeps consistent temperature, looks sleek and modern, which fits our midcentury modern home. The inside water dispenser is awesome. If my kids spill water, it goes onto the inside shelf, which is easy to wipe (vs. our old outside water dispenser that water would fall onto my wood floors and warped them!) I took out two shelves and configured it they way I like. Very easy, user-friendly.

    A Stylish and Functional Addition to Any Kitchen

    I recently purchased my kitchen appliances, and the Café 23.1 Cu. Ft. French Door Counter-Depth Refrigerator in Matte White has proven to be a standout addition. Not only does it boast a sleek and modern design, but its customizable features and efficient functionality make it a top choice for those seeking both style and substance in their kitchen. First and foremost, the matte white finish of the refrigerator adds a touch of sophistication to my kitchen space. The clean lines and minimalistic design effortlessly blend with various kitchen styles, providing a timeless and elegant aesthetic. The counter-depth design further enhances the overall look, giving my kitchen a seamless and integrated appearance. One of the standout features of this refrigerator is its customization options. The external dispenser allows for easy access to filtered water and ice, and I appreciate the fact that it can be programmed to dispense precise amounts. The internal shelving is adjustable, providing flexibility to accommodate items of different sizes. The temperature controls are intuitive and precise, ensuring that my food stays fresh for an extended period. The French door configuration not only enhances accessibility but also helps to keep the cold air inside, contributing to energy efficiency. The LED lighting inside the refrigerator is bright and evenly distributed, making it easy to locate items, even in the back. The storage capacity is generous, and the layout is well-thought-out, with dedicated compartments for fruits, vegetables, meats, and more. In terms of performance, the Café refrigerator excels in maintaining a consistent and ideal temperature throughout. The advanced cooling technology ensures that my groceries stay fresh for a longer duration, minimizing food waste. The refrigerator operates quietly, adding to the overall convenience in a home environment. While the price point may be higher than some other models on the market, the combination of style, customization, and performance justifies the investment. The Café 23.1 Cu. Ft. French Door Counter-Depth Refrigerator in Matte White is a premium choice for those who prioritize both form and function in their kitchen appliances. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality refrigerator that not only meets but exceeds expectations.

    I recently upgraded my kitchen with the Café 23.1 Cu. Ft. French Door Counter-Depth Refrigerator in Matte White, and I must say, it's a blend of style and substance. The matte white finish adds a touch of elegance to my kitchen décor, and the customizable handles are a brilliant touch, allowing the fridge to seamlessly integrate with the rest of my appliances. The refrigerator's storage capacity is impressive, making it a great fit for families or those who love to cook and entertain. The interior layout is well-thought-out, with ample space for all types of food items, and the adjustable shelves are incredibly convenient. I appreciate the counter-depth design as it doesn't protrude past the kitchen counters, giving the space a more streamlined and custom-built look. Additionally, the temperature control is precise, keeping produce fresh for longer periods. The water and ice dispenser is another highlight. It's conveniently located and easy to use, providing crisp, refreshing water at the touch of a button. However, I did notice that the fingerprint-resistant finish is not as effective as I hoped. While it does minimize smudges to some extent, regular cleaning is still needed to keep it looking spotless. Also, the price point is on the higher side, but given the features and performance, it feels justified.

    Very noisy compressor despite ensuring fridge is level. Freezer is rather small and we often have to shift items around to get it to stay closed. Otherwise a beautiful fridge that functions well. Sadly, will be returning it as the noise is untolerable.
