Reset every 2 weeks
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’ve had this fridge for about a month now. It stops cooling about every 2 weeks. Called Samsung and they told me to unplug it and plug it back in. That works. For 2 weeks... luckily my fiancé are home to catch it every time it happens but who wants to reset their fridge every 2 weeks? For $1,400?! No thank you.

Nice appearance, poor quality
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very elegant exterior. Well organized inside. After 3 weeks fridge started making noises ranging from gargling to huffing and puffing . Do not be deceived by exterior sleek appearance; quality doesn't match the look

Worst fridge ever!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this fridge and had trouble with it from day one. The fridge works fine but the Freezer stops working intermittently. We had techs come and look at it and repair various parts of the fridge with no luck. We had to battle Samsung to get our money back. It was a terrible experience. Buyer bewarer.

Posted .Hi Mike,
Thank you for purchasing a refrigerator from us. Samsung products are designed to provide convenience and satisfaction.
And it's sad knowing that one of our valued customers like you had to experience an inconvenience with what you have and that the freezer stopped working intermittently.
If your freezer is not freezing, or if your fridge or other temperature-controlled compartments (such as FlexZone) are not cooling, there are several options for fixing the problem and correcting the temperature. Most cooling concerns can be resolved by adjusting refrigerator settings, proper use and care, inspecting and cleaning the door seals, or resetting the refrigerator. Please be guided with this link.

Do NOT buy!!!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After 1 year it gives up on you and wont freeze, getting the warranty is a waste of time because they have you call Samsung to schedule a visit for diagnostics but the company they send is a third parties which means they charge a fee of $100+ apart from that its not guaranteed to get that ammount reimbursed!!! All my food went fo waste because of this issue. Worst purchase made and terrible customer service and terrible communication between the samsung and third party’s policies.
