A: The top shelf can definitely hold 4 ice cube trays. They can be stacked and you'd have room on the side for other things.
A: We have this In lower level in an unfinished basement, it sits 3' away from office work shop set up, I sit there at least once a week for several hours, the fridge is very quiet, I don't notice it at all, I would not worry about noise.
A: The door is not completely flush with the refrigerator when opened at 90 degrees. It sticks out about 1/2 inch or so.
A: It's the latter. there's one temp. control and the top shelf in the fridge is colder than the bottom one. We like it as there's more space in it than our old fridge.
A: Hello KenC, the Refrigerator does have wheels on the front of the Refrigerator. The coils are located underneath. We do not recommend adding any additional shelves to the Freezer. Hopefully this information is beneficial to you. Thank you for your inquiry regarding our Whirlpool appliances!
Q: The freezer space looks a little tight. Will it fit a few frozen pizzas?
A: Yes, if you stand them up or some you can lay flat. Depends on the size.
A: Variable, depending on the setting. It's a guess, but it has a reasonably close range before going on and off -- because the thing runs a whole lot. Knowing that it actually pulls cold air from the freezer side to cool the refrigerator means that it should run much less if you aren't in and out of the freezer compartment very often. We had a twenty year old Maytag that ran much quieter, less often, and kept temperatures within a similar close range with no problems at all. Electric Utility (Exelon) encouraged their customers to update their refrigerators to conserve power -- now we're wondering what the real incentive was for that directive...We gave the old Maytag away, and truthfully, wish we had it back so we could give this one away...
Q: can the doors be removed for delivery?
A: Hello Shopper! Yes, the doors can be removed for delivery. Thank you for your inquiry on our Whirlpool appliances.

Nice size fridge for empty nesters
Bought this fridge after my Amana fridge with bottom freezer bit the dust after 16 Years. I never really liked the bottom freezer as I could not fine anything and the drawer slide stuck so if something fell behind I could not open the drawer far enough to remove it. I decided that I had enough years with a bottom freezer so I decided to go with a side by side. I like the fact that you can see all your food in the fridge and freezer area without much of a problems. There are a few draw backs to this fridge though. First the selves in the fridge it’s self are not adjustable. The top shelf is just tall enough to put a gallon of milk. I have a water pitcher for filtered water and it is to tall to put on any shelf so I have to put it in the door, which is not very convenient. (The door shelves are adjustable ). The other thing is that there is space in back of the shelves that is open and small items can fall down. This space can be a plus if you are trying to fit in leftover containers but you have to be careful what you put in the back of the shelf. The freezer shelves are adjustable to a point but the shelves are slotted and you need to place most things flat . Thin items can fall into the slots. It is also an adjustment going from a fridge with full width to the side by side but we are adjusting. The other thing is that this fridge had a dent in the top of the freezer door when it was unpackaged at the time of delivery. I am still waiting for a replacement to come in ( 2 months and counting). I’ve been told that they are on back order from Whirlpool.

Mr.
-After the service personnel left I noticed that a small chrome piece on the top of the right handle was missing. I called Whirlpool and they sent a replacement handle. -All the delivery people were courteous an helpful. -The only thing I was disappoint with was that the refrigerator was not leveled. I had to do that myself.

Freezer lining is fragile:(((
I purchased this Fridge in May as I was updating a 50 year old kitchen. I wanted side by side and I didnt want an ice maker. Hard to find that combination. Whirlpool and Maytag both had similar models. Due to the pandemic, the Maytag was not longer available:( So I got the Whirlpool. Both good reputable brand names. Looks nice , but OMG smudges so easy:(( Im constantly cleaning the doors:(( It works fine. BUT a couple of weeks ago I opened the freeze and saw a crack on the bottom of the freezer ??? WHAT?? I asked my husband if he knew about it, he had no clue, he has dementia:(( OMG. Why is that freezer liner so fragile?????????????? thats insane!! I called Whirlpool and they sent a tech to come out and look at it. He has seen this before he said. :((( He was told to put putty over the crack:(( REALLY. ??? The putty is NOT WHITE and now theres that starring at me everytime I open the FREEZER:((((((((( Brand new freezer, looks like crap... IM so dissappointed in the quality!! I did write to whirlpool no response yet. :(((((((((((((((( We are in our 70's I cant really go out and buy a new fridge now:((((
