I can’t believe no one mentioned these things. I would have never bought this refrigerator had i known there’s no light for water/ice dispenser and ref drawers don’t adjust and there’s not enough of them!
Hi there akingsqueen, I would like to congratulate you on your new Samsung Refrigerator. I would like to forward your concern to our design team for future products. Welcome to our family and thank you for choosing Samsung. ^Brad

Shelves and internal storage are poorly designed. Limited shelf height means shelf is either too high, or too low. Can't stand beer bottles upright because shelf is too low. Ice maker went out in less than 2-years. Fridge keeps good temperature, and so does freezer, but I wouldn't buy a Samsung unit ever again. Replacement ice maker was $200 and I was able to install myself fortunately. What a piece of crap this fridge is. :(

Good refrigerator, works great but like all Samsung's, ice maker issues. Ice tray cracked and water leaking and freezing in the ice dispenser making it unusable. For a refrigerator under 3 years old, this should not be happening.

Fridge is OK, Terrible Ice Maker
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Overall an ok fridge. The one glaring negative is the ice maker. The biggest problem is that it doesn't make enough ice, we have to use ice cube trays to help keep up. Dedicating a shelf in the freezer to ice cube trays negates the advantage of having the ice maker in the door. We didn't have any issues with an empty ice maker with our old fridge.
Thank you for your sharing your experience with one of our Samsung refrigerators.
Should you need support in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at www.Samsung.com or by calling 1-800-726-7864 (1-800-SAMSUNG).
Thank you!

Ok, but....

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Seems to be good fridge. Very large drawers, deep. Needs more shelves as shelves are spaced out way far. no butter enclosure. digital controls on freezer and fridge temp. No light on water/ice dispenser to see what is happening oin the glass. Coming from a handle door to this no handles is a major change, making it hard to put a load back into it.

Unreliable ice maker and dispenser - AVOID Samsung
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Ice maker stopped dispensing after 2 years. TWO YEARS! Called for service, and the technician indicated the ENTIRE left door needed to be replaced for over $500. We decided to do it but they couldn't even source the parts after 6 months to repair the refrigerator. Samsung customer experience was not good as they couldn't even explain if a part was available. Instead, they wanted to send someone out again at cost to me. I will not be buying Samsung appliances in the future. What a waste of money and resources.

NOT fingerprint resistant black stainless
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
We bought the fingerprint resistant black stainless steel on oct 2020 and and it is NOT fingerprint resistant at all. You barely touch it and with clean, non greasy finger and you can see it easily!
The ice maker is inconsistent with a small ice storage capacity. Even though the ice storage is full, it struggles to dispense it.
The shelves and door containers cannot be adjusted at all, can only be removed.

Incredibly Disappointed

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I loved Samsung products. my new home had a new refrigerator, dishwasher and stove. Unfortunately, if you have an issue their service is incredibly bad. When I had problems with the ice maker Service Quik who they contract with came out on 3 occasions and still could not repair it. On one trip the serviceman actually dented my new dishwasher. I called the next day, sent photos etc. They finally replied that it was a he said she said and that they would not repair the damage. I tried to get in touch with Samsung about this and received no reply. At this point I have to advise anyone thinking of buying Samsung to look at another brand. I don't want you to have to deal with what I did.
