Love this Fridge!

We received this fridge a week ago and so far so good. We have had a french door fridge before but without the ice maker on the door. So I was a little worried about losing space for storage up top in the fridge part. But much to my surprise there is still plenty of room . I love the shelves that...

Bought this refrigerator 6 weeks ago. Already having problems. It is not maintaining temperature. Called for maintenance and was told had to wait 3 days. We thought this would never happen to a brand new refrigerator. Had an Kitchen Aid for 16 years before it had a problem. We only had one minor problem...

Great fridge. Ice works wonderfully (previously had to exchange a fridge that wouldn't make ice). Tons of space in the fridge part and the pull out freezer drawer has more space than our side by side did. Ice is noisy, but it doesn't bother us. The fast freeze feature is wonderful. The fact that it isn't as deep in measurements as the older models is a definite plus. It was only 4 inches deeper than the previous counter depth that we bought. Would definitely recommend this french door to anyone.

An abundance of room!

We are a family of 6 and our old side by side was just not getting the job done very well. I wanted the largest (interior size) fridge I could fit in my kitchen. The fridge also had to have an ice maker that served crushed ice, per my husband. After spending 3 months comparing online and in person, this was our winner!

It has everything you could want or need. The only problem is that the ice maker does leak a small amount of water when the lever is pushed to dispense ice. Other than that........AWESOME!

I bought this refrigerator because of the large capacity and sleek design. 2 months after having my icemaker hooked up, the paddle you press to dispense the ice started corroding. I contacted Samsung and they refused to fix the problem stating that no one else has reported this issue. I find that hard to believe. It has now been 5 months since I have started using the ice maker and almost the whole paddle is corroded. Also, the black flap inside the door that keeps the ice from falling on the floor is also broken. Now there is constantly water on the floor from all of the ice. I am very disappointed... read full review »

I love this fridge. It has all the bells and whistles. It holds a lot of food without taking up a lot of space. It looks great and all the extra compartments is a plus. The led lighting is bright and in the right places. Only negative so far is the water dispenser drips a little and dispenses in a diagonal stream towards the back. So make sure you get your cup up there. Otherwise is has been great and worth the pice.

Love this fridge. The large movable shelves are great for whatever you need. the inside is spacious and roomy. It can be rearranged so that even large stock pots will fit in it. Great during the holidays for storing all your food. The drawer freezer is large and has a top drawer as well. The stainless steel design blends in with any kitchen. Easy to clean and very quiet.

The only draw back we have found so far is the water and ice dispenser. It will sometimes leak a little water out of it from ice melting in the tube. This water will then run down the front of the fridge. It is usually not very...

So far my family and I love this refrigerator. We only have had it for about 3 months so far, but it is so much better designed than our previous side by side refrigerator of 15 years. I try to research purchases through **************** and discussion groups before narrowing my choices and then personally checking them out. I was concerned about the water/ice dispenser issue that seemed to be the biggest problem that some people reported, but in researching other refrigerators, it seems there are always a few people regardless of brand that end up with some issues. Overall, this refrigerator has...

I LOVE this refrigerator!!  It is exactly was I wanted it to be, lots of room, lots of features, convenient location of shelves and ease in finding items so they don't get lost.

The freezer part is great too, easy to find everything.

I love the convenience of ice and cold water, as I now live in a hotter climate that I did 2 weeks ago.

I highly recommend this refrigerator!!

This is the best refrigerator.  I had a side by side before this one and never had enough freezer space.  This had great freezer space.  I also love the inside drawers of the freezer and refrigerator.

The best part is the ice maker and water.  It is the best!!!  With the filter, it is so good and cold.

I also love the adjustable shelves.

samsung is always our first preference when it comes to Electronics /Appliances..

This Refrigerator is simply superb and i dont have any problems till now? it's smooth and gentle. I read lot of reviews regarding this refrigerator saying that the water  as well as the food tastes funny and some said that the water drips on the floor when trying to grab some water?so, here is a trick how to get rid of the funny taste ... grab some baking soda (u can find it anywhere ..drug stores or any other Dept stores)  add some water  mix well and clean the interior of the refrigerator with a tissue (kleenex)...

I love this.  This refrigerator fits with LEAN - All the major items I need for my daily cooking is set at the Strike Zone - no bending or reaching.  The lighting is amazing.  I can actually visualize what is in my frig without moving items.  I can see into my crisper drawers and everything.  The ice/water dispensor works.  I can put my 32 oz cup and get water/ice without using a secondary cup.  It fits.  The fast cool is another amazing option.  I made soup last night and put the leftovers in the fridge and hit the fast cool and it cooled beautifully.  

The freezer is another thing...

At first, I loved this refrigerator.  However, 13 months after installation, I noticed the bottom of the door near the hinge was rusting!  Now, today 13 1/2 months after installation, the deli drawer assembly fell apart!  What a hunk of junk!  Run, don't walk, in the oppositive direction of this refrigerator!  Looks good, appears to have nice features but problems seriously outweigh those features.  The angle & design of the ice & water dispenser causes water to constantly be dribbled down the front of the unit.  Serious design flaw.  Also, filters do not last very long and are very expensive....

Love my fridge!

Absolutely love this fridge! Very spacious, well lit and big. I don't notice the ice maker being loud. The only problem I don't like is the water runs out when you use the crushed ice function. Love the doors, large drawers, lighting, and the freezer is spacious also. I love the ease in opening and using the freezer drawer. I would recommend this fridge to anyone. We got the stainless one.
