    This is a major improvement over the previous versions. The pull out is much better for access to the ice. The button controls work much better. It is a little quieter than the previous model also. On the previous model there is no way to clear clean the cooling vents easily. The new model has improved air flow thru 2 side vents. With this model I covered the air intakes with magnetic PC air filters. Congrats to GE for doing a good job of improving it since they took it over.
