        Q:Does this have to be connected to a water line for ice maker? Thinking of using this fridge for basement. If a plumbing is needed do they have this same refrigerator dimensions without ice maker?
        by|Mar 21, 2024
        1 Answer
        Answer This Question

        A:  Hi Susan, Yes, to fully utilize the automatic ice maker that is equipped with this Samsung refrigerator model, a water line is needed. In addition, if the plumbing/water line is difficult to install in your basement, the automatic ice maker can be disabled to avoid damage to it while the entire refrigerator is in operation. All 3-door French Door refrigerator models including this model have an automatic ice maker equipped. I have shared this model's user manual link below. Please turn to page 32 for the control panel label and page 35 for instructions on enabling or disabling the ice maker. https://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/202311/20231107195808543/FDR_RF5000A_DA68-04132A-04_EN_MES_CFR.pdf Should you need more assistance, please feel free to get back to us via the following options: 1.

          32 inch fridge can be hard to find, happy so far
          I’ve had mine for almost 2 years, no problems. I bought mine elsewhere, but thought a review here might be helpful. I’ve been very pleased with the way this fits into my small kitchen space. With one inch behind it, It only stands out 3 inches from my 25 inch counter - this is the thickness of the doors. I have 1 inch of space between the counter and the fridge which is more than enough to fully open the door. A half sheet pan (13x18) will fit. I did not connect the ice maker. I did not connect it to WiFi. Mine has no handles, but has recesses in the doors instead. One improvement would be to alter these pockets so that they are easier to clean, since the one at the top of the freezer collects crumbs and stuff that is hard to get out of the corners without a q-tip. I use water and a microfiber cloth to clean it regularly. Never have used any special cleaner. The crisper drawer on the left side will open with only the left door open. Both doors must be open to access the right crisper drawer. Only the lowest shelf in the fridge can be adjusted. Mine is in the top position and the height of the space below it is 9.5 inches, which looks like enough to fit a large-ish turkey. Milk cartons and wine go in the door shelves. This is taller than most refrigerators. I am 5’ 5” and have no difficulty seeing and accessing items on the top shelf. The bottom freezer is ok, with 2 drawers at the top and a large bin below the drawers. Since I did not connect the ice maker that space is used for storage, which helps a lot. The lower bin is spacious, but if it is full you will be digging through stuff. This is standard for bottom freezers, but the payoff is that all your refrigerator space is at eye level. Works for our family of two, and I cook every day. It stays well stocked with veggies, leftovers, and all the usual staples and condiments. I also have a full sized upright freezer so this works for us. Temperature control is excellent. Looks nice.

                Only lasted a year
                Bought this refrigerator last year A month ago it stopped working. Made a repair appt for the following week and every week since. No one can fix it. We were told today’s appt was the final step in Samsung’s “protocol” and that if the problem couldn’t be fixed today, we would be getting a replacement. They reneged and now want to try to fix the motherboard not until next week! Horrible experience.

                    DON NOT BUY !!! Stopped cooling in one month
                    Do not buy any Samsung products !!! Fridge stopped working after one month !!! Brand new Microwave had terrible burned smell after operating over 1 minute . So after over a month of calling Samsung with no help I just called random repair company and had to pay my own $500 to fix the issue . It ended up some compressor wires had to be replaced and not the motor . Never get refunded for my expense

                        Front door cracked within first few months
                        I was pretty excited to get this beautiful looking new fridge for my new kitchen but was quickly disappointed when a 4 ft crack appeared just a few months into owning it on the front door making it look much less appealing. I opened a service ticket only for the rep to tell me I likely bumped the door on the edge of the counter when I opened it. If this indeed happened as they hypothesize, this is a poorly designed/made product that I will never purchase again. They sent me to the parts department to order a new door...for my brand new fridge...ridiculous. Don't wastey your money!!!

                          We know how frustrating it is when the refrigerator does not keep the food in good condition, Lucy. Let us help.

                            Disaster
                            I have had less than 3 months and it stopped keeping things cold. Refrigerator at 10 degrees C according to my thermometer while the refrigerator said it was 2 degrees C. Food in freezer thawed. Food was not cold so I knew which one to believe. Repair person said I needed a new motherboard and that he has had to replace several. I asked about coverage for the food spoilage and he said to contact who sold it to me. This is a Samsung problem and they should be reimbursing me.
