    Really nice refrigerator. Black stainless is gorgeous. A bit pricey considering that there were no real bells and whistles beyond WiFi that we'll probably never use.

    Awesome refrigerator. It’s the biggest one I found for the least cost. It’s my garage refer and I’m not concerned if it doesn’t have a water dispenser. The ice maker rocks. The front door already has a dent so it dents easily. It’s great as my 2nd friend if the one in my home wasn’t new, I’d buy this for inside too. It’s huge.
