Impressed so far
So far so good. Very spacious fridge. Cooled down fast and easy to install. The water dispenser is lower than our last which is helpful for young kids. It’s quiet and matches our other stainless products of a different brand well. The packaging was a little tedious to peel off but it kept if protected and scratch-free.

    Nice adjustable shelves
    Just had fridge installed and I picked this one because it matches the Stove in Slate and GE only makes Slate. I am not super fond of French door Fridges, but there weren't any in stock to choose from and my other fridge stopped working. I give this 4 stars because of the difficulty getting the plastic off the doors that protects it. I still have some that I cannot get off the fridge so it is stuck there. I also give it 4 stars because the shelves on the left side could be made a little bigger. But what I do like about this fridge, is that you can adjust the main shelfs to put taller stuff like a juice bottle and still use the smaller shelf that is usable. Some fridges after you adjust it, you are stuck with a 1" opening shelf. This one is better.

        I really like the space in the fridge area. Great layout for kids, they love the water/ice dispenser lower so they can reach.

            Love the storage space!
            We absolutely love our new refrigerator! It is spacious, quiet, and fits everything! We use lazy Susan turn tables to keep our condiments and dressings organized and there is still room for more! I like that I can get to everything easily, without having to move things in front to get to the items stored in the back. It is easy to keep clean, inside and out!

            We're so glad to hear that you love your new refrigerator. Thank you so much for choosing GE Appliances for your home! The showcase LED lighting is one of our favorite features. It's positioned throughout the interior and under fresh food doors to spotlight foods inside the refrigerator and in the freezer. We hope that you will enjoy this unit for many years to come!

              Love it!
              Very quiet and spacious. My last refrigerator’s ice maker was really loud so it is very peaceful in my house now.

                  Good design for storage
                  I like the overall design of the GE French Door refrigerator. The repair team needs to replace a part. I like the freezer down below and more space on each side for refrigerated items. The doors have storage too.

                      Fridge is brand new but makes a buzzing noise. I hope this is not a sign of things to come.

                          Would not buy again
                          Door liner ripped and freezer door handle fell off about a year after purchase. Hate this refrigerator. GE used to be a qyuality company so I bought a GE range and dishwasher at the same time. Range is working fine but dishwasher is having problems.

                                  Excellent choice, brightly lighted inside, variety of door shelving and inside shelving for storing your foods. The fingerprint resistant stainless steel door well appreciated! Bottom Freezer very spacious with shelving for all my needs. I love how the ice maker is tucked flesh to inside door for easy access without removing storage space. Perfect refrigerator!

                                    Mediocre
                                    The size is great, with lots of space for a family. The refrigerator is much louder than the one I had previously; you can often hear it cycling and of course, the sound of making ice. I do not think the water dispensor proportions are ideal for different sized cups or bottles, you really have to pay attention to aligning the cup/bottle to ensure no splatter. Additionally there are some craftsmanship things that shouldn’t be an issue at the price. The stainless steel doesn’t fully align under the plastic to drawers, so you can see insulation between. So far within the two months of owning, cooling and freezer seem adequate. Overall, okay product, not fully satisfied nor dissatisfied, just disappointed.

                                      New fridge-not self closing doors
                                      I bought this to replace a side by side refrigerator. It is roomy. One thing I don’t like is that the doors don’t close unless you push them. I guess my old fridge had heavier doors. The grandkids will be reminded to push them so the inside stays cold. It is also missing a temperature control. There is no way to adjust it if placing warmer foods away.

                                        Like a cheap printer
                                        The main issue with this unit is the water filter It cost $50 plus to replace once every 120 days. it doesn't count gallons it doesnt measire resistance it just counts days. each filter has an rfid tag that the fridge measures. you cannot just take the filter of an put it back on. you can not save it for a few months and rotate if you want water out of your fridge you will have to spend over $100 per year on that water. if you decide i will just not change it it will shut your water off.

                                        It's important to note that the water filter should be replaced every six (6) months or after every 200 gallons of dispensed water to ensure optimal performance. If you prefer not to use a genuine GE Appliances water filter, a bypass plug must be used. If the plastic bypass plug was not supplied with your refrigerator or has been misplaced, one can be ordered at no charge by calling 1-800-432-2737. GE_Appliances

Over 15 svc appts that could not resolve issues - told the freezer ice & thaw was normal because of the freezer design!! 10/23 returned found freezer & fridge frozen shut, thawed, leaked damaging new floor. GE still refused to replace. Entire unit finally stopped cooling. GE finally replaced unit 12/23 with dented unit. Nightmare

                                                            Really wanted to like this refrigerator. Fit my space perfectly and had all the features I wanted. Nice appearance. However, the almost non-stop loud buzzing noise from the back of the refrigerator is enough to give you a massive headache. I checked with a decibel meter and it is running anywhere from 55-70 decibels. I can hear it over my TV in the adjoining room. I am not certain if I have a defective refrigerator, or this is normal for this refrigerator. I called Home Depot to return.

                                                            Hello - Thanks for taking the time to write a review. We don't rate the sound level of our refrigerators or freezers, which means we are unable to provide a decibel level for while they are running. Newer refrigerators sound different from older models because they have more features and use newer technology. We recommend you review the "Normal Operating Conditions" section on pg. 42 of the Owner's Manual for a description of the sounds you should expect to hear from this unit: https://images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/02/0237e769-ea99-4877-9b7b-0fc540989b8a.pdf.

                                                            If you believe the sounds you're hearing are abnormal after reviewing this information, we recommend scheduling a service appointment for one of our qualified technicians to assess your unit. You can schedule an appointment by calling us at: 1-800-432-2737. Kind regards. -Don@GEAppliances Don@GEAppliances’ GE_Appliances
