    Happy Customer, No Regrets!

    Great purchase, great price, great quality, love the design, wonderful storage capacity, temperatures are amazing, freezer temperatures are so good that you have to set things out about 10 minutes before you can eat or cook them, the shelves are nice and deep allowing you to store a lot of groceries and items, love the different areas of storage and the way it was set up and designed on the inside, love the look of the stainless steel not the usual vibrant, shiny silver look, but a more warm Calm, stainless steel look with a hint of black to it that allows it to blend better with the black appliances in my kitchen, nice and quiet and so much more I could say about it, but you get the point, I am pleased with this purchase and with this product and I would definitely recommend it to anyone. Compared to my previous refrigerator I can definitely feel the upgrade in storage capacity and it definitely upgraded the look of my older kitchen.

    Perfect everyday refrigerator

    I shopped 5 different stores, home depot, lowes, famous tate, bargain appliance. Nothing compares to the room i get in both the refrigerator and freezer. This refrigerator storage is fantastic. I love the side by side. I it allows comfort of not bending down all the time to pull things up from the freezer. The level of quietness when the refrigerator is running is unparalleled, quiet as could be. Temperature gage is simple and accuracy of the setting is perfect.

    Upgrading to a minimalistic and spacious fridge

    It was time to let go of the small old fridge that came with the house. We chose this appliance for a few reasons - spacious, minimalistic design, shiny, well-lit, internet connected and the brand name. The ice-maker was just an added perk because we don't use it as much. I like that we get a notification when the fridge is open for awhile but it didn't quite save us when the freezer was a little cracked open. With the app I can set temperatures precisely among other features. It was a worthwhile purchase and I wouldn't mind upgrading to another Samsung Fridge when that time arrives.
