Customer Reviews for Summit Appliance 13.81 cu. ft. Bottom Freezer Refrigerator in Stainless Steel

Great fridge. Love the shallow shelving and height of fridge. Its really tall so you don't feel like you are losing space. Perfect for a small family that likes to eat fresh. Freezer doesn't let all the air escape because of drawers. Downsides - a bit noisy. But less than our old 10 year old fridge.

makes water inside and freezer doors inside built veryflimsyand cheap have two summit products both have broken parts that happened quickly tried ordering replacement parts from summit two years I still haven't gotten them and I have called 6 times always great promises but never any parts so as far as customer service don't bother there is none

I am really glad I made this purchase. This refrigerator is small, sleek, and has a modern look. The only draw back is that there is no ice machine so you have use ice trays. I also thought it was a bit expensive since you can purchase a regular sized refrigerator with filtered water and ice on the door for the same price or cheaper.

This fashion-forward refrigerator certainly knows how to make a statement. Its sleek, sexy, and slender style is paired perfectly with its stainless steel finish. Unfortunately, I found its beauty is drowned out by a bothersome buzzing from the compressor. If your kitchen is near your living room or bedroom and you're noise sensitive, this Summit may not hit the apex for you.

I just received the refrigerator today - it looks great and cooled down nicely (I turned it all the way up). It's one of the true counter-depth fridges out there, and I have a tight space (1950's ranch), and a budget! I can't yet speak to the longevity, however, as I've only been running it for 8 hours. The reason I wanted to write a review right away is because I'm very happy with my decision to buy this from Home Depot. There were other online vendors, some of whom even had slightly lower prices; however, when I did a search on their reputation, it didn't make me feel comfortable. I was happy to pay a little more to ensure good customer service - and I'm so glad I did. The delivery was available on the earlier end of the estimated window, which was very nice. I paid a little extra for the white glove delivery, as I wasn't sure if my husband would be home, and I wanted the refrigerator in the kitchen, not in my driveway. When the third-party delivery man showed up, he was very nice, but was alone; fortunately, my husband was home and helped him carry it up the stairs and through a couple of rooms to the kitchen. When I went online today, I also saw that the item was on sale. I initiated an online chat with an associate, and was promptly refunded not only for the difference on the sale price, but also for the white glove delivery that wasn't. The "discount" online vendor I considered didn't even have a price this good! I will continue to be a loyal customer of Home Depot!!!

I wanted a smaller capacity refrigerator to fit into my rather odd-shaped kitchen. Not only did it fit perfectly, it enhanced the overall appearance of the room. It's very quiet which is another feature I was looking for. Not sure if it's as energy efficient as claimed but I should be able to determine the energy usage over the next few months.

We don't have any sort of inset area in our relatively small Kitchen to receive a refrigerator. It was crucial to get a shallow model. We are very pleased with the purchase. I was worried it would be noisy, but it isn't. Of course you can hear it, but nothing out of the ordinary. According to other reviews, it may be a dice roll whether or not you get a noisier unit. Ours is fine. Worth noting, the first time it was plugged in it chattered pretty loudly, but once the refrigerant got distributed around the lines (I guess that's what it is), it gradually quieted down to a very reasonable level. It would probably be best after receiving and placing the fridge to NOT plug it in immediately and let some of the lubricants in the compressor that may have sloshed around during shipping to settle down. I wonder if the chattering noise reviews may have ruined their compressors due to something along these lines. It was very heavy. Thank goodness I have a dolly.

I was a bit skeptical in ordering this fridge because there was no floor model to look at. I had looked at a Leibherr, but it was cost prohibitive. Although somewhat hesitant because of the negative reviews, I ordered the Summit thinking there was a good chance I'd return it. I have fallen in love with this fridge. It's beautiful, quiet, and roomy. I love not having to bend down to see what's in my fridge. I have a very small kitchen in a 100 year-old house - this fridge fits perfectly. The drawers feel a little flimsy, but we're empty nesters so I don't think they will be a problem. I'll be keeping my Summit.

Great energy saving unit with LED lighting and plenty of space inside. Even has a wine rack.

After a lot of research we purchased this refrigerator one year ago. Space requirements compelled us toward a shallow depth model and this unit has been a winner. The shelves and freezer provide a very flexible layout and the smallish capacity has not been an issue for us. Doing the math on energy usage for this unit indicates equal or lower power consumption than a small model from a major brand recently identified as the most efficient available. Construction is first rate and we receive numerous compliments on it's contemporary look. Other posts have mentioned noise as an issue. I'd say this unit is quieter than other refrigerators that I've owned, but it does emit a large variety of muted sounds which we find amusing. I was especially curious to discover who the manufacturer is. The closest I came was a large refrigeration manufacturer in Turkey. This might explain it's compact size, flexibility and efficiency manufactured for a global market. .

Size and appearance is the only good thing going for this refrigerator! A lot of condensation accumulates on the inside back wall freezes. So there's a film of ice and whatever is up against it will freeze to it! The coils are not covered so you can't put it up against the wall. The fan in the top section of the freezer has a grill over it, but is exposed enough where something too close gets caught in the fan! It does wabble back n forth when pulling on the door handle due to it's so tall! I returned mine, thankfully there's a 90 day return policy!

The amount of space in this refrigerator seems more than our old 24 CU FT top freezer model. The counter depth and nearer to eye-level refrigerator section really helps stop the "rearward migration until molding" leftover lifecycle we had with our previous model. I realize I am comparing it to a 20 year old refrigerator, but it has been perfect so far. I did compare prices with current models and this a great price for the quality. If white works in your kitchen, that model is an even bigger bargain. Note on shipping and delivery: This model is not part of the Hope Depot appliance delivery/takeaway deal. This adds a bit of hassle unless you spring for the top delivery option which is pricey. Shipping took a bit longer than I was excepting and delivery meant it just showed up on the porch. It's not a huge heavy refrigerator, but it is still a full size fridge, so one inventive moderately strong person could get this in to a first floor, but for anything else, get an enthusiastic friend.

Refrigerator great for small spaces. Looks nice and fits like a built in. Ample Fridge space and the Freezer is laid out nicely. Would like a light in the freezer but the fridge has. Got the door dented in shipping so hopefully they will replace that.

loved love love this product, move over LG, Kenmoore and Whirlpool. Summit is coming after your market. This is the sexiest, super-functional, sleak and super quiet fridge. Would recommend many times over!

75 inches tall/28 inches wide and counter depth/stainless steel. This has met more than my expectations.

The refrigerator arrived in original packaging in excellent condition. The compact 28" width fits our kitchen perfectly and the extra 75" height fits even our 7' kitchen ceiling. It runs quietly and cools well. The drawers in the freezer take a little getting used to, but are fine. Very happy with our purchase.

Given the small size of my kitchen space I needed a fridge that would not stick out. The Summit is not only streamlined but looks great! The extra features, like the wine shelf and the ice cube tray were perks I was not expecting to get in an appliance this size. I even managed to switch the door to the opposite side with minimal effort! Since I haven't had it very long, I didn't give it an excellent, but it is trending that way!

For all of us who have limited space in our kitchens this fridge is our only option. If you want some kind of style that is. I had to switch the doors from left pull to right, but that was fairly easy. There are insructions but not very good ones. I found better ones on YouTube. Well I Love my fridge it's quiet and keeps everything cold and fresh. That about says it all, Thanks

This refrigerator is in our small office kitchen and everyone loves it so far. It looks great both inside and outside and there's plenty of room. One of the few refrigerators that fits in a narrow space. We have very high ceilings in this wonderful renovated textile mill, so it's height is an advantage too. We haven't had it long enough to determine if it is energy efficient yet. Would highly recommend this appliance so far.

I looked high and wide for a refridgerator to fit into a smaller area in a older house that I am renovating, yet still accommodate my needs. I found this online and then learned it could be ordered thru Home Depot. It was exactly what I wanted. It meets and exceeds my expectations. If I knew how to upload a photo I would !

We have only had this product for a month. It arrived in good condition. Our remodel is not complete, so we cannot say how it will actually look in our new kitchen. It is working fine and we love the look and size. It is perfect for two.

Nothing fancy, just a great fridge with plenty of space that fits in a small kitchen. Easily twice as much interior space as the dark old fridge that it replaced, but it sits in the same footprint.

Great appliance for smaller kitchens. Love the refrigerator on top!! The motor to regulate temperature seems to run a little louder than other brands...but the good thing is that it doesn't run for too long or as often. Not very many variations for shelf configurations. Freezer size is not sufficient- be prepared to purchase a small box freezer. Overall, happy with it as it suits our family of two adults with refrigerator room to spare.

I am still waiting for the final touches on my new kitchen but I am very pleased with the Summit refrigerator. It looks great and offers excellent use of the interior space.

The fridge fit perfectly in our small kitchen. It looks fantastic! Other reviews commented negatively on the noise it made. I don't know what they owned previously, but this is the quietest fridge we ever owned ! The only negative aspect about the fridge is changing the door handles to the other side. There is no parts list and the instructions were absolutly worthless. If you have to have the handles changed, REFUSE to accept the fridge unless the seller does it for you.

This product has surpassed my expectations. It fits perfectly into my small kitchen and has loads more space than you'd think. It's not for massive pizza boxes but for most stuff it fits fine. This fridge gets out of the way and just works well. I love that the refrigerator is on top so I never have to bend. Let's just say that the crispers are slightly above waist height for me. The freezer is tiny in terms of dimensions so large frozen food packages wont work in this one. One thing to watch out for is that the stainless steel finish smudges really easily so you'll be cleaning it pretty often. Speaking of cleaning, this is the easiest fridge to clean. There are basically no little creases. Just remove the shelves and crispers and wipe down, voila. I really wanted a Liebherr but for the same performance I'd have to shell out close to $4K!! No way I could afford that. Glad I made the choice to go with this one.

All in all, this fridge does the expected job; I have a decent amount of cold storage in a very tight kitchen space, so in that way, I am very satisfied. But the humming (a very high pitched G# or so) is very frustrating. I wish I could find a way to silence this, but so far it penetrates even beyond the kitchen.

We wanted to try a smaller than standard refrigerator in our small kitchen. The Summit is quite stylish looking with nice shelves and door storage. Very reasonable price for a bottom freezer. The previous reviews were accurate regarding the negatives: it does indeed have condensation at all times on the back wall. I don't know why. And, yes, the door is hard to re-open if you have just shut it - quite a vacuum. It does make audible noise from time to time, but I rarely notice it. Be aware that the shipper will deliver this like a package. They do not make an appt, they just leave it in front of your house.

compared to other counter depth frigs we looked at this one is much less costly. At 27" wide it is enough space, easy to access. runs quiet, sleek looking, not ostentatious

The freezer is small, but enough for one or two people. In the refrigerator, I love all the shelves in the door to hold things and the wine rack is great for wine or any type of bottle beverage.
