So far, this seems to be a good, basic refrigerator/freezer. It is mostly quiet and keeps food at the correct temperature. One of the plastic shelves on the door kept falling out and broke the first day, but I was able to easily get a replacement. Overall, I'm happy with the unit.

Excellent refrigerator! I’ve had for a little over a year now. My prior refrigerator stopped working out of nowhere. Had to throw away so much food. My family and I recovered with this new refrigerator. This is a brand I trust and look forward to having for years to come. Lots of space and has everything I need in terms of function and space.

I do love my new fridge! I have plenty of room, so happy with the many drawers and shelves. Great ice maker-it started making ice within a couple of hours. Didn't even expect that! It looks great with my stainless steel range and microwave. In my opinion, it isn't loud when it is running. I really like that there is a temperature control on the outside of the fridge, which can be adjusted if needed, and the temperature inside the fridge and freezer can be checked there as well. I could have given it 5 stars except the door handles are not fingerprint resistant. But I have to also say that I was thoroughly impressed with the delivery guys!

This refrigerator is very well built and super quiet. It has ample room and keeps everything cold. It just does what it’s supposed to do, as all GE appliances do. Delivery was timely and everything went without a hitch. I would definitely recommend this model if you’re in the market for a side by side refrigerator.

Purchased this fridge after a part in my 10+ year old Kenmore (which we loved!) gave out, and it just made more sense to take the plunge on a new (and hopefully long-lasting) one.
After probably too much research, we decided on this one, and we are happy we did so. We now have more space, better tasting ice and water (the filtered water jug now gets much less use,) pleasant lighting and more features than our previous fridge. It's also easy to keep clean.
On to the delivery experience -- although we had a couple of hiccups with actually getting the fridge in place (first one had a few dents, etc.) Best Buy didn't disappoint in resolving. The delivery and Customer Service teams we worked with were very professional and made sure the end result was a very positive experience.
Finally... we did purchase the 5 year Geek Squad Protection plan. For $50/year, it just made sense... yeah, we may never use it, however one issue will probably cost more to fix than the entire plan.

I had an older GE fridge from 1993 that finally went out, decided to stick with GE and it’s been a great decision. Nice size, shelves are movable, quite, everything works great.

Nice look and built well. The water taste fresh and clean. The ice is perfectly shaped. The storage is well divided among many shelves. The lighting is perfect. It's quiet and the front doors close with a suction sound. So far I am so happy I bought this model from GE. Now I am gonna by a new GE oven.

Refrigerator has nice lines and looks more expensive than the price. Keeps sensitive items cold without freezing them on the refrigerator side. Freezer is spacious with plenty of shelf space making it easy to find what you're looking for.

Nice refrigerator and it works well. No complaints about the unit itself. Installers were rude, stole 2 pound package of Havarti cheese and a pound of sliced salami (in their defense it was almost lunch time), did not level the refrigerator, did not install any shelves or accessories, broke a large flower pot in the outside walkway. I would recommend hiring a different installation company.
I especially like the number door and shelf spacing options that appear to be unavailable on other brands.
I like the option to add cubed ice since I do not have a water line hookup available.

Bought the fridge over a year ago and still working great! For people like me who like to do meal prep and freeze meals ahead of time, there is ample space for food storage in the freezer side of the fridge, far more than conventional fridges. I love how the lower shelves of the standard fridge are all drawers, for better access to the back of the shelf and less interesting for curious kitties whenever I open the door.

Refrigerator works well Keeps food cold and at the temperature you set it to. I like being able to see and adjust the temperature on the outside.
It’s not as spacious as my old 20 year old Refrigerator though. Only issue is had was the delivery man was rude to me because I didn’t pay the haul away fee and he had to move the old fridge before getting the new one in.

The only downside to this fridge is that despite all the measurements we made to make sure it fit our space, it was too tall on one side. I had to take the cabinet down and plane it about 1/2 inch to get the fridge under the cabinet. Otherwise, it runs like a top, makes plenty of ice, and seems to respond to the controls quite nicely. We have had this a couple of months.

Loved this refrigerator. Everything was good but had to return because it was I too wide for the space. Spacious and quiet

I love this fridge. My last one started leaking, it was also a GE, and rather than mess with repairs since I did plan to replace it eventually, I went ahead and ordered the closest thing to my specs that could be delivered immediately. Although I paid a little more than I wanted to because I didn't have time to do research or look for sales, I am beyond thrilled with this purchase. It's smaller capacity than my last one in terms of cubic feet, but the way it's laid out makes it seem a lot bigger. There are multiple lights inside so everything is easy to see and very accessible. I'm so happy with this refrigerator. It looks really beautiful in my kitchen as well. The only negative was with installation. This refrigerator does not have the little feet that turn. You need an actual drill to level it. That's kind of intimidating, but since the installation guys to care of it for me, it wasn't a big deal. I just want to mention it because they were really struggling with getting it level!

We started off with a side-by-side from a main competitor with GE and returned the refrigerator after 2 weeks. Horrible design and VERY noisy. This one is so well thought out and designed, and super impressed with how quiet it runs - amazingly quiet compared with our old refrigerator or the new one we returned. The doors close and seal nicely but you don't have to play tug-of-war trying to open them. The ice maker and water dispenser are fantastic and the temperature buttons are super easy to set. Bottom line - we couldn't be happier with this purchase :)

It’s no more loud than any other refrigerator- the doors actually close properly as compared to my 10 month old Whirlpool french door fridge that our builder installed in thr spec home we bought last year. That fridge shot out ice cubes as if they were going to be launched into space. Ice chips EVERYWHERE, but mostly on my floor & not in our cups! Not this GE side-by-side. Having the rounded plastic cover at the dispenser level, completely prevents that issue from being a regular problem.

Closest thing you can find to the Profile version. Honestly, even the inside look identical. I asked the sales person what’s the difference, and they told me the Profile gas better stainless and materials, but otherwise same fridge.
Now, 2 days after install, it started leaking through the water dispenser. I scheduled a GE service, but after 2 more days before my appointment it stopped leaking so I cancelled the appointment. Now after 10 days, it started leaking again, so another service call. This time I won’t cancel whatever happens.
The inside of the fridge and freezer side is amazing. Lots of space and LED lighting. It sticks out about 4-5 inches from my counter, but considering how much room I get in return it’s worth it. The ice bucket took a little more than 5 full days (60 hours) to get full, and during that time, fridge makes a lot of noises. Overall, it’s a good fridge, but GE needs to pay more attention to quality control.

Very nice refrigerator overall. Love how it looks inside and out and really enjoy the water and ice dispensers. It is nice having bright lights in both the fridge and freezer areas so you can see everything. The door alarm to alert you when it is open can be a little annoying when you are trying to put groceries away but not a huge problem. I don’t know if it is because it is still pretty new but the drawers tend to stick and are sometimes hard to open and close. The filter indicator on the front of the fridge will be really handy to let us know when to change it. It doesn’t have some of the fancy new features that a lot of the new refrigerators have but that is one reason we chose this one to be honest. Solid refrigerator for the price.

I bought this fridge for our rental townhouse. It's more spacious than I thought originally and water filtration system works fine. Simple design, and reliable. This is a GE product so you can't go wrong with it
