Does the Job. Excellent Buy.
Only 28 inches wide but seems bigger. I replaced an old 30 inch wide which is my limit do to cabinet size with this 28 inch because I wanted the fridge to get air flow all the way around. I do not feel like I sacrificed much space inside the fridge. It appears well made with quality shelves. Excellent efficiency as well. Pretty quiet too.

          Reliable
          Kind of small for a 5 person household, but it fits enough things I guess, and works well. My only gripe is that the freezer doesn't have a light in it that I can tell.

                Not cooling after 1 year and 3 months
                I purchased this refrigerator on March 14, 2022 and it no longer is keeps cold. I can no longer use the freezer. It doesn't keep items frozen. The refrigerator does not stay cold either. Very disappointed. There is no way this should not be working after a little over a year. I've purchased GE products in the past and have not had any issues. I'm not sure if there is a defect with this product.

                Hello- We are so sorry to hear you are having this issue with your refrigerator. This is not what we expect to hear and are truly sorry for your inconvenience.

                  Just okay
                  This fridge is just okay. To be fair I downsized from 22 to 17 cubic feet. That may not sound like a big difference but believe me the difference is huge. It's brand new but I already have to set it on its highest setting to keep things cold, and while it freezes the meat it takes almost a full day to do so and the popsicles don't even get hard in the freezer even after weeks. The LED light placement is poor and makes it difficult to see anything that's not in the top shelf. The crisper bins are a joke! I eat fruits and veggies on a regular basis and I can't for more than a few heads of broccoli and a few apples in them. Everything else has to be out in the main part of the fridge and it goes bad quickly so I'm forced to stop more frequently just to keep food items fresh. I really miss my 22 year old cooling vessel.

                  Good morning, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on your new GE top-freezer refrigerator. Your feedback is valued and very important to us. With that being said, we are so sorry to hear you are not completely satisfied with your new refrigerator, and that the temperature fluctuates and is not consistent. If the refrigerator is running but not cooling at all or is not cold enough, several factors may influence the temperature: - Confirm surrounding air temperatures have been within 38-110°F. Extreme temperatures outside this temperature range will affect cooling, causing the unit to be less efficient. Below 32 °F, there is no cooling capability at all. At temperatures exceeding 110°F, there is a possibility of the oil overheating and breaking down, thus damaging the compressor or sealed system. - Check current refrigerator and freezer internal temperatures by checking food temperatures. If refrigerator control is set to a colder setting, i.e. 4 or 5, then we recommend you schedule service. You can schedule an appointment by calling the Service Department directly at 1-800-432-2737 Monday – Friday: 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. ET, or by scheduling online at the following link: https://www.geappliances.com/ge/service-and-support/service.htm Thank you for your review! -Devin@GEA

                      So far, just fine, but it has only been a month. The refrigerator continually makes a sound like someone snoring. Very strange

                        I just got it delivered 9 days ago, but it seems like the motor is running a lot. I will know when I get my electric bill.

                        Good afternoon, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on your new GE top-freezer refrigerator. Your feedback is valued, and very important to us. With that being said, for refrigerators and freezers to maintain the proper temperature, the compressor will run much of the time. Refrigerators and freezers have compressors that are designed to run 80% to 90% of the time. This makes them more energy efficient because the greatest amount of energy is used when the compressor cycles on as opposed to when the compressor is actually running. You can view the article at the link below for additional information on some factors that may contribute to longer run times for your refrigerator or freezer: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=16932&_ga=2.62363695.2098085779.1686575110-1100713441.1674245189 We hope this information provides peace of mind, and that you will enjoy this refrigerator for many years to come. Thank you for trusting GE Appliances for your home! -Devin@GEA

                            The refrigerator is very nice and fits perfectly in our kitchen. The only thing that is strange is that it is so much louder than our previously owned 25-year-old refrigerator. For some reason, I thought the motor would be quieter.

                            This works great in our galley kitchen. Simple design matches well with existing appliances. So far performance and quality is good. Great choice for us!

                                        This frig is small, not taking up space like my last one. I wish it had a freezer light. It's hard to see what's on the back of the shelves, have to bend WAAAAYYY down (difficult for seniors). It's a basic workhorse, those are my only complaints. Simple, no frills.

                                            Perfect size, design, and Energy Star
                                            I am very happy with this model. I have a small kitchen and thought in the ideal roomier house I would want a larger model, but really this model is very adequate for our 2 person home. The freezer is roomy, and the glass shelves are easy to clean. Others have mentioned the noise level, but I find it runs quietly, and quieter than my last refrigerator. Quite satisfied!!

                                              Simple Box for a No-frills Cool
                                              We received this refrigerator, at reduced cost, as a participant in our community's "Trade-up" program - an effort to replace inefficient, older appliances with modern electric-saving devices. This is a no-frills cooling box, with industrial-cube-style architecture. So far my likes: quiet operating acoustics, bright interior light, solid sealing door gaskets, and even and consistent cooling/freezing throughout. My research indicates that GE's entry-level fridges are industry leaders in reliability. Time will tell.
