    We replaced a LG french door that died after 12 years of good service. Although the french door had 1 cubic ft more of space, the GE side by side has the space more efficiently arranged so we actually have more usable space. This new unit is SUPER quiet,you only hear it when it drops ice. The energy efficiency is superb @ 77.00 dollars in electricity a year to run. Temperatures are uniform through out the interior. Ice cream in freezer side is rock hard( how I like it). The thru the door ice and water work great. I read some reviews on other products of ice spewing from the dispenser,this is not the case with the GE. The doors will not stay open on their own, they close under their own design if not fully shut. It has an alarm function but it has never gone off as the doors shut themselves if slightly ajar. Unless you fully open the doors, they want to close. I checked consumer reports before purchasing and inspected the unit at the store prior to delivery. The Geek squad delivered and installed the unit right at the scheduled time. The install crew was very careful and polite,in and out in less than a hour. We are all very Happy with this product. I most definitely recommend this product to any one looking for a new refrigerator. It will not disappoint.

    I really like this frig. the ice maker perform flawlessly ( this is a big deal to me). My only beef is that the labels on the door for water/ice/crushed ice are not illuminated, so when I try to get a glass of ice water late in the evening, I can't tell where the buttons are. Instead, there is an indicator light above the button that is selected, but I still can't read the button label unless I turn on the kitchen lights.

    I Love this GE side by side Refrigerator...side by sides are my preferred choice. The display pad is easy to operate and it's easy to replace the water filter. The unit looks so attractive in my kitchen.

    Freezer door doesn't close completely. This causes frost inside the freezer. Really disappointed, have only had it 2 months. Happened like 2 days ago, just outside my 45 day return window with bestbuy.

    After reading many reviews from various websites, with the majority of reviews stating that it was loud when making ice or that it made loud noises when cooling, I have to disagree. When I am in the kitchen, I cannot tell if it's on and when the ice spills into the container below, well, it's ice cubes falling into the container! It's going to make noise. The day that refrigerator was delivered was not the day that it was installed and that is due to the fact that valve on the water line (wall side) was corroded. More than likely if it was shut off, the valve would have ruptured and water would be all over the kitchen floor. So make sure before the refrigerator is delivered that the valve is in good condition. One last thing, the refrigerator was wrapped in plastic as well as the doors and when pulling the plastic covering off, the plastic was perforated on one end of the doors but not the other. So on the left hand side we have a very jagged edge of plastic covering showing and the right hand side no plastic covering at all. My wife is unhappy, which means that I will be using a very sharp razor to cut away the bits of plastic covering. Not what I want to do, at all, with my time. If anyone has any tips, I would appreciate it. One last thing, the top of the refrigerator is tapered to the front, make sure you have at least 1/2 inch more to slide the unit into or it won't fit. For some reason, the sales people don't tell you this teeny bit of info.

    Fridge needs to "stabilize"

    I bought this refrigerator as an open box to save a few bucks. At first I worried that I made the wrong decision, because shortly after the fridge was turned on, it started making a very loud compression noise. It would come in on and off every few seconds, and would last for around 10 seconds or so. It was loud enough for me to consider returning it. However, after a few hours of making this loud noise, it went back to normal refrigerator hum noise, and it has stayed that way. The fridge itself is roomy and the ice maker is great. Better than the Samsung that this fridge is replacing.

    Definitely a downgrade from the Profile line

    This refrigerator replaced a GE Profile 29 Cu Ft that died before I had it 5 years! (SO glad I bought the BB extended warranty!) I got this model basically by default, as it is becoming increasingly difficult to find any black appliances of ANY brand...& I didn't want to go thru replacing my black stove & dishwasher to boot, as they are not that old While I didn't care or want a bunch of bells & whistles on my fridge, I DO expect to get some basic functionality...some of which this model is lacking & which I was already aware of. (again, was trying to keep it matched w/rest of my appliances for now) - While not the noisiest fridge I've heard in my life, it's definitely NOT the quietest, & certainly NOT as quiet as the Profile I had. While it's not annoying to me, I can overhear it in my adjacent living room. - The black model is definitely susceptible to fingerprints; I'm the only person here, but might want to consider this for your own family's needs. - While the specs say this has LED lighting, you'd never know it by seeing how much space they take up inside, as well as it's kind of poorly lit overall. The freezer ONLY has 1 light & the fridge only has 2; the worst part is the top light in the fridge, which takes up a LOT of room in the center top; it's almost like someone mounted a lighting fixture on the inside ceiling AFTER the fridge was made; VERY poor design! - Only 2 glass shelves & 2 slide-out baskets in the freezer; it's like they were thinking everyone needs 1 entire basket for REALLY, REALLY tall items. (luckily I kept the baskets out of the old freezer & put 1 in this new one, which fits perfectly & gives me 1 more basket of space; you could probably order one from GE) On the plus side, the ice & water dispensers & filter work well & seems to pump out ice in a reasonable time. The fridge shelves pull out & have several height adjustments & does have a meat/cheese drawer. (amazed at other fridges in this price point that do NOT have one these days) For the money, this refrigerator will do for me; your YMMV.

    I’ve had this for a year with no issues. Purchased at the outlet at a discount but it was basically new. I noticed it can be a little loud at times when the condenser comes on but you don’t usually notice unless it’s really quiet in your house. Ice maker/water dispenser works well. The shelving can be adjusted to different heights to accommodate taller items. Holds a lot of food for the size. Door alarm if you have kids that forget to close the fridge. Freezer baskets and fridge shelves pull out for easier access.

    Decent fridge but dimly lit

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this fridge due to several features that are important to me such as LED lighting, large EZ access ice and adjustability of shelves. I must say the water/ice dispenser works great, I am extremely disappointed by the dim LED lighting however. had I known this it would've been a deal breaker. Two LED arrays, one on top and one in lower rear is woefully inadequate once the fridge is filled with food. To rectify I bought 3 LED strip lights and installed them under front lips of the shelves and one on top, see photos.

    Ge - 25.4 Cu. Ft. Side-by-side Refrigerator

    We exchanged our WHIRLPOOL 25 CU. FT. SXS stainless refrigerator for this model. The whirlpool model was just too loud for me. It was actually louder than the 14 year old refrigerator we replaced, so I asked the folks at Best Buy if they could help and they did. The salesman was very helpful and quickly helped us get it replaced with the GE side-by-side. I really like the GE model and would give it 5 stars, but it too has an issue. It gurgles and makes noise due to the flow of compressor refrigerant, It's a bit irritating at times, but nothing compared to the noises the whirlpool was making. Plus, this refrigerators filtered water is fresh and good tasting. The inside of the fridge is roomy and spacious.

    We purchased this refrigerator to replace ours that would require defrosting by hand. Really enjoy the ability to adjust the shelves in the door of freezer. And also how the ice maker is quick to make ice to refill bucket. So far the inly complaint is the filter that came with the water unit plugged up within two days of use. I just removed and placed the plug tgat came with it and am not using the filter. No issues.
