Frost-free appliances regulate temperature to prevent ice build-up automatically. Automatic defrost systems use a timer to circulate heat and prevent ice accumulation, while adaptive defrost systems use sensors to determine the optimal times for heat circulation.)

Product Manuals

User Manual

Q: Ice maker

A: Ice aker is in door and capacity is very small.

Q: Is there ice thru the door in addition to the water?

A: Dear Customer, No, the through-the-door dispenser on this refrigerator, model WRF560SEYM, is not for ice but will dispense filtered water. Thank you for your interest in a Whirlpool refrigerator!

Q: Can you recommend a 30 inch wide ( can be no wider ) refrigerator that has French doors ?

A: No! I had my kitchen modified to fit this machine.

Q: is the black one a shiny finish or dull finish

A: It's the dull finish, which like you, I prefer. No reflection can be seen from this model.

Q: Where is the vented door behind the crisper. Please send a picture or illustration. The manual does not show this. Please help!!!!!

A: Great

Q: Hi! Is this energy efficient fridge?

A: Technically yes. But you have to buy $140 worth of water and air filters per year to operate it so, it's going to cost you more than what you save in energy efficiency.

Q: how much is the amperage?

A: According to the panel inside, full load amperage is 6.5.

Q: I cannot find anything behind the crispers (I've tanken out both drawers) to hook the fresh flow housing unit. Please send me an illustration or picture. Thank you. It is appreciated.

A: It's inside of the crisper drawer.

Good for Small Spaces
There are pros and cons to this fridge. I’m not a fan of the french door fridges but this was the only option for our space(less than 32”W x less than 68”H) that had the most room and a water dispenser in the door. Pros: Has good space inside after we removed a shelf and door bin. Water dispenser with an auto light so you can see at night. You can turn it on or off also but it also comes on when you dispense the water. Has an alarm if a door doesn’t get closed all the way for an extended time period. Its not too loud but it has come in handy a few times to remind us. Ice in the freezer not hard to access. I use a flour scoop that I leave in there to be more sanitary than just grabbing it with your hands. I didn’t think we would like this as opposed to being in the door with the water, but it truly hasn’t bothered us as much as we thought it would. Nice bright interior lights. Looks nice and the “stainless look” matches our “true” stainless steel dishwasher(Some don’t). Its a darker warmer gray, not silver. It can look nice with the best if them. Gray housing instead of black. I never understood why you would want black sides if you stainless steel front. But for this price it should all be stainless for the best apperance. Designed so you can open the meat and veggie drawers even if the doors can’t fully open, which ours can’t on 1 side. This is super smart and not too many brands do this. I noticed Whirlpools side by side did this too. This really helps outweigh some of the cons because it makes what space you have very useable. Who wants to buy a fridge and not be able to open the drawers? The 3 fridge drawers all seem quite funtional for the intended uses. There is a air filter to keep odors down. I like the top sliding drawer in the freezer for small things I need all the time. I can find them really quick. The bottom not so much as mentioned in the cons. Cons: Doors won’t fully open anyway as shown in the picture. Thats as far as it opens on the left! This is stupid. Inconvenient for getting a lot out at one time. You have to keep closing to get around the door in a small kitchen like ours. But it’s liveable. We had to remove 1 door bin and 1 glass shelf to make room for taller half gallon drinks and condements. We have lots more room now. The Whirlpool plastic sign is right in the top middle of fridge and in the way sometimes. The left door opens and closes without the right door opening, but its harder to do. The freezer has a fixed divider down the center of the bottom drawer which limits what you can put in there. Dumb. Its also harder to find things in this type of freezer. You just have to stack stuff on top of everything and then take it out to find things. But all bottom drawer freezers are like this and why I’m not a fan. But it’s something I can get used to for the size constraint. Magnets stick so it’s not true stainless steel. This is “stainless look” and I guess its cheaper to make but I would prefer true stainless for the price. Removing the plastic wraping. Its stuck around everything and is really hard to get off. I was careful and used tweezers around the water dispenser but we still have to remove the handles yet to get it out from behind. There is some kind of glue that had squished out I guess between the stainless at the top and bottom of the left door. You can kind off see it and definitely feel it. Its ruff. It’s upsetting with a $1,400 refrigerator. Some came off with stainless cleaner but its still there and it bugs me. This is not very fingerprint resistant which I think it says it is. But neither is true stainless. If you get a good stainless cleaner who cares. Stainless cleaner removes and helps resist finger prints anyway. This is only a con if you think you won’t have ever get fingerprints. The edges are sharp on the stainless steel handles. It’s not anywhere you will touch with your hands but only noticed it when cleaning as it caught the cloth and tore it repeatedly. Again shouldn’t be on an expensive fridge. Overall just feels lightweight and a bit cheap compared to our GE profile we had before. That felt solid when you opened the doors. The water dispenser is very shallow only about 1-1/2” deep. I’m sure this was to save space inside. It’s just you have to be careful and you cant set a glass there. But it serves its purpose. It is a loud when the ice drops. It scared the crap out of us for the first week. This is lessened by having more ice in the bin for it to drop on. But if the bin is empty oh my gosh. Thankfully our kitchen is at the opposite end of the house from our bedrooms and living room. The motor is a bit loud when running too. But its not too bad. Just shocking that a new fridge would be loud at all. The top of the fridge doors are taller than the housing case. Not a big deal but makes it harder to put things up there and remove them. I’m sure this was to keep the housing small and save space. There is another filter that came with it to put in to keep produce fresh.??? There is no place for it that we have found. The manual just says to install it but doesn’t show where. Lol! Maybe we will figure it out one day. I guess it’s not really a con just a what the heck? The price! Wowzers! Quite steep for the quality imo. Overall Whirlpool did a good job for a consumer with space constraints on design. But if your going to ask a hefty price tag then don’t cut corners. I want to feel like I got a quality appliance for $1,400. I don’t want to be left feeling like I paid too much money for what I got just because I have a smaller space. No one does. But if you are in need of a smaller fridge that matches true stainless with water through the door and can wow others then I recommend this one.

It fits and works
Ok so we insisted on a French door model and because of the opening in our kitchen our options were limited. This is smaller than many, the lighting isn't as "pretty" as other models, etc. The price is however better than many other "larger" models. Now for some details that were perhaps missing from the description; there's only water available through the door and the water that comes out is not very cold (about 50F according to the manual). If those things aren't an issue for you, then this unit will do just fine. Also the last thing I want to add is the shelves; if you have a lot of tall pitchers, you will definitely need to move them around (or take them out altogether) to make space. Again, if this isn't an issue for you then you're ok. Ultimately if you have a space large enough for a bigger machine (and your budget allows) you would definitely go that route. If you're like us and have a narrow space (35.5" or less width, 68.5" or less height to the case) then this is your best option in a French door fridge.

Nice size refrigerator for a small space
I really like this Whirpool refrigerator. The monochromatic stainless does not show fingerprints and the filtered water in the door works and tastes great. The shelves are nicely arranged and hold many items.
