    Extra Large Value Fridge with Flaws

    |
    |
    Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We wanted the largest refrigerator we could get for the price. This came in as a great value refrigerator by a good brand name. We love that it looks like Stainless but it isn't because you can stick magnets on the front. We love how large it is and it is very roomy. It was a great value for our money. The freezer works nicely. Because this is a value model, there are minimal adjustments to door shelving. Our biggest disappointment is that Samsung brags about how evenly this refrigerator distributes the cold air. That is not true! We have used a pair of refrigerator thermometers to figure out which shelves are going to freeze our food items. Unfortunately there is enough temperature difference in 2 places in the refrigerator that items there will freeze. We have taken out a gallon of milk and meat that was partially frozen with ice. So we just learned that we could not put milk in that particular spot. It seems no matter what they claim, the cold air is not distributed evenly in the refrigerator. You will have to use thermometers to figure out where the frozen spots are in your refrigerator. I know this is a common problem inherit to refrigerator designs. But for a brand to brag about how evenly their model cools.....we found that not to be true at all. In our old fridge, it dumped all of the frozen air through one spot at the top of refrigerator. So you knew the top shelf was the coldest and might freeze the milk. Samsung added a change to that model by having multiple vents that dump freezing cold air into the refrigerator, which sounds great. But they actually created several spots that will freeze your milk or food items solid. The other flaw is the limited ice maker size. We only have 3 people in our family so it is adequate for us, but if you had 4 or more people using ice, it would definitely not be enough ice. The ice maker is contained in the freezer door so it does not have a very large bin to hold ice. With that all said, I would buy this again because of the price and good value. If I could find a different brand that did not freeze my milk, I would go with that one.

    Nice Side by Side Refrigerator

    This Refrigerator is sleek looking and has fingerprint resistant stainless steel which makes it look nice all the time without just having to be cleaned up. The water / ice dispenser in the door is nice for those that are refilling water all the time. Large space inside the fridge on both sides makes it easy to organize your refrigerator and keep all of your food fresh and easy to get at. It's a big refrigerator size wise, so make sure your measure your space so that you know it will fit. Don't know about the longevity as only had it for about 6 weeks, but seems like every 5 years we need a new fridge and this one is very nice!

    Great Design & Spacious, Just a Few Small Quirks

    Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I’ve had the Samsung 27.4 cu. ft. side-by-side fridge in black stainless steel for a while now, and overall, I’m really happy with it. The design is sleek and modern – it looks fantastic in my kitchen and resists fingerprints pretty well, which is a nice bonus. One of the biggest positives for me is the space. It easily fits all our groceries for the week with room to spare. The shelves and compartments help keep everything organized, though I do wish there was a bit more flexibility in adjusting shelf height. The cooling has been consistent, and the freezer is surprisingly roomy. That said, the ice maker has been a bit hit or miss. It works, but occasionally it takes longer to refill or gets jammed up a little. Also, the water/ice dispenser could use a bit more lighting – it’s hard to see at night. Despite those small issues, I’d still recommend this fridge. For the price, design, and storage capacity, it’s a solid choice.

    This is our 2nd time purchasing a Samsung fridge. We are extremely pleased with everything about this particular model. It looks great on the outside and performs perfectly on the inside. It's so quite! There is lots of space on both sides. Pizza boxes fit on the freezer shelves with no problem. It's well designed. Only 2 things I would have preferred are an extra drawer on the fridge side and a light for the water dispenser. Highly recommend this model!

    We have owned this refrigerator freezer for around two months it works great. We really like it. Small icemaker works fine, non-adjustable shelves, but they are spaced very nicely. We didn’t really need to adjust them. We got the stainless steel model looks great, of course it’s not real stainless steel but the color and ease of cleaning is very attractive. The sides are a medium to dark grey color, so just the front is a stainless steel color The controls on the refrigerator allow you to boost the temperature of the refrigerator and freezer to make it colder than the setting allows in The normal setting in case you have had the refrigerator freezer doors open for a long time. That helps the temperatures recoup quicker. I believe the normal settings go as low as 34° in the refrigerator And 8° below in the freezer. looks like a pretty well thought out refrigerator freezer. I think most of the flaws they had in the past have been dealt with at least that’s my opinion. Water dispenser and icemaker work well in my opinion. It helps to use a spatula or something to push the ice away from the edge of the opening of the icemaker every once in a while to make sure there is not a damming of ice in that area. There is no light in the water dispenser area but if you are intent on a light, you can buy a motion detector light and put it next to the dispenser part there is room for a thin one which you can buy pretty much anywhere fairly cheap so stated another customer in the reviews that I read. We have a well lit kitchen, so it really doesn’t bother us. Our previous refrigerator freezer only lasted about 5 1/2 to 6 years and didn’t really keep things cold, but this refrigerator freezer with it’s all around cooling works well in my opinion. So I would give it five stars, very happy with it so far.
