Customers are pleased with the refrigerator's spaciousness, price, and design. They appreciate the ample storage space, affordability, and modern appearance. However, some have concerns about the ice maker's reliability, noise level, and limited shelving.
I bought the Whirlpool refrigerator from Best Buy because it was on sale and because Best Buy would deliver, install, and remove my old fridge without charge. I was concerned about other people's reviews on this fridge, but I found that when using the water/ice dispenser, if you use a glass with a mouth wider than a juice glass, ice will not fly out on the floor and water pours into the glass okay. The water does come out warm (like it did with my old fridge) but I dispense ice cubes first and then pour water into the glass. I think the size of the ice cubes is just fine although a little smaller than the ones from my old Samsung refrigerator. I do miss the Samsung's two paddles, one for water and one for ice. I don't like having to manually push a button when switching from ice to water. I think the company should have put an extra shelf in the refrigerator section. There's an empty slot for it. The freezer section could use another shelf, also. -- Yes, this Whirlpool is a little noisier than my old fridge, but nothing that we haven't been able to get use to. As far as fingerprints are concerned, I was told that if you wipe it a couple of times with a stainless steel cleaner when you first get it, the cleaner will help keep finger prints from "sticking" to the surface. That seems to help. My old stainless dishwasher and stove do not have a fingerprint problem like the new refrigerator seems to have. This new stainless product seems to be more "finger print absorbent." This new Whirlpool refrigerator is not built as well as my Samsung was. This new one does not have covers for the hinges on the top, and there is no cover plate at the bottom under the doors to hide the water filter. It's a cheaper model but then again, I didn't spend the money to purchase a more expensive model. Bottom line: It's doing what a refrigerator should do, keep things frozen in the freezer and keep food cold on the other side.

This refrigerator looks great and it matches our existing Whirlpool black appliances. Needed a new fridge and took me a simple trip to Best buy and as always had great pricing and the financing program made the purchasing experience ever better. Overall is a great product, energy efficient, quite and has the perfect size which makes our kitchen look better

I am so pleased with this purchase-it looks like a commercial style refrigerator, it's very roomy, outlined well and super quiet. The crushed ice comes out a little sloppy but I just use a wide mouth glass or container. Outside of this ice issue my family and I love it-so far so good !
