    Small Refrigerator

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We chose this is a refrigerator because it fits into smaller spaces, and we only had two choices. Our previous fridge held so much more, but had a small ice maker instead of the ice and water dispenser. I'm finding this refrigerator holds barely enough for a week's groceries for two people (we eat at home all the time). It is also difficult to find things, because there isn't enough room to organize AND see things. The shelves are not adjustable (the door shelves are), so the only place to put milk is in the door or on the top shelf. Some juices will only fit in the door. We also have had trouble with things freezing in the fridge. We had to move the temperature in the fridge to "two checks" instead of the recommended "three checks." If you need a small refrigerator as we did, this one is fine. Adjustable shelves would have been nice.

    I was worried about getting a side by side fridge with the limited space I have, but this fits nicely in my old kitchen. The fridge side fits a medium/large pizza and the water line to the freezer was easy to connect.

    Absolute Garbage after 2 years

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We've owned this fridge for 2 years now almost to the month. First year it was great! Ice maker worked and fridge temperature was consistent. Warranty is a year so I was pretty happy. About 1.5 years in the ice maker started going on the fritz where I'd have to manually reset it every month because it would get stuck turning the ice from the maker into the bin. No big deal. Then the ice maker completely broke. Will not work. Now we can't put any liquids on the back right of the top shelf because it freezes them. Last month a small rusted spot under where the water dispenser is appeared on the "stainless steel" door.

    This entire refrigerator has been a nightmare. I have a pantry on the side and cabinets above so i was very limited to what I could buy because of the size. This was the only fridge with the features that I wanted, and that would more importantly fit. I originally order in black. The first one came and was dented so they needed to reorder. The night before it was supposed to come, I got a call saying it would be another month before it came in. The next morning I went up to Best Buy to get it in the stainless color, of course, I had to pay an extra $200 but oh well. After the install, I noticed that items in the fridge were freezing. I tried moving things to different shelves. After about a month after I called Best Buy to have someone come out an look at it (I bought the extended service plan) they told me I had to contact whirlpool. So I did, and they sent out the service providers they use - Platinum Factory Service. The tech came and put a piece of foil over one of the vents in the back.... yes, foil! He said that the fridge pulls air from the freezer to pull the air in the fridge. It worked for a while, then I noticed I had more frozen food. I called back again (this is May now). Again, they sent PFS out again and of course you have to wait a week each time. This time he replaced the diffuser damper door. It worked until around last week and I had more frozen food. This is now July and the problem wasn’t fixed. Being livid after throwing hundreds of dollars of food away i called again. The supervisor from whirlpool sent me a $50 check to cover for food loss - that didn’t even make a dent. She was going to send PFS out yet again and of course a week. I told her I wasn’t waiting and wanted someone out that week. She ended up sending someone out the next day where this time he raised the freezer temp a setting colder because he said that if the freezer was colder the fan would pull cooler air in the fridge and the fan wouldn’t run as long.... this was not a fix. A few days later.... frozen food. I called whirlpool again where i talked to several people that told me the couldn’t replace my fridge of give me my money back. The one lady told me that someone else i talked to wrote that I was rude and was screaming. I most certainly was not.. I was upset as any consumer would be who pays over $1300 for a product that doesn’t work. I finally spoke to someone who sent out another service provider. They guy came out today and he told me that the guy who replaced the damper door didn’t hook it in the entire way and was constantly letting in a little bit of really cold air from the freezer. We will see if it works now. I wouldn’t recommend this product or any whirlpool product. Their customer service is a complete joke and the warranty company, Platinum Factory service shouldn’t be in business. Whirlpool doesn’t stand behind their products at all. I am buying a product from them, and they won’t replace or give me my money back for a product that is faulty. Then they write in the file about me that I am upset, of course I am! I was never rude, of course my voice gets heated as anyone’s would be dealing with this garbage. Shame on you whirlpool. This will be the last whirlpool product I ever buy.

    Within 1/2 hour of delivery, water stopped working, but ice maker works. Whirlpool said we had to have Best Buy trouble shoot it, but BB doesn't do that. 1 1/2 weeks later, I am STILL waiting for whirlpool to contact me in regards to this issue - 1) tried to register the fridge online, but it said invalid model. 2) tried to ask for assistance troubleshooting, would not assist. 3) No return contact as I have requested. 4) Fridge runs loud. 5) Seems more spacious that the top freezer fridge we had. I always thought Whirlpool had a better name and reputation, but I am thinking I am totally wrong - they won't even stand behind their products.

    Disappointed

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It’s a nice enough refrigerator, but the ice maker freezes up about once a week. It’s a poor design. We bought this because of high ratings, so I’m surprised by this issue. We could have bought a cheaper frig , but I wanted the ice and water features. Water comes out warm ( my old GE had cold water) and ice maker has issues. Disappointed.

    It works great. I do wish the freezer was an inch wider often pizza boxes or larger items do not fit. Or that shelves could be placed more where I wanted them. Otherwise it’s great.

    This fridge is the perfect compact fridge you can buy. We have a tight fridge space in our kitchen and this baby fit perfectly. We really wanted a fridge with a water and ice dispenser and this thing does exactly what we ask for. Satisfied on all levels. But this!

    Average Overall

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Overall, this is a decent refrigerator. On the positive side, it keeps food very cold and there is ample space. It also saves energy. Conversely, the water dispenser dispenses cool water, but not cold. I wish there were more slots for the shelving to accommodate taller items. Also, the water filter reset option does not work.
