We have had one of these for several years and it replaced a similar Kenmore built by Whirlpool that lasted 20 years. Given the limitations of a top-freezer unit, this Whirlpool is excellent with the following exceptions.
The textured plastic handle soils easilly and is a little time-consuming to clean. Smooth would be better. The feezer is very spacious, but that means the refrigerator is a little smaller than it might be and that means stooping for even top shelf items. If you get a top-freezer, that comes with the territory, I guess. It is relatively noisey. When we first got it I was literally...review »
Just one month out of warranty this refrigerator stopped being cold.
Lost all my food, and had to pay Sears $230. to fix faulty fan motor.
Not what you would expect from a Whirlpool product/Kenmore name.
I have owned this refrigerator 6 months. I have absolutely no regrets in deciding on this appliance. I wanted an Energy Star rated refrigerator and one highly recommended by Consumer Reports. It keeps my food cold and well organized, is easy to clean and spacious. The water dispenser just at the top front is great for a quick glass of delicious cold water. The ice maker works efficiently and produces more ice that I use but easy to turn off/on, and with it I still have plenty of room for a Top Freezer model. Whirlpool produces solid appliances. What more could I ask for!
the contoured features of this refrigerator clearly sets it apart from its more boxy counterparts. Very roomy inside, and clear storage bins help find items quickly. The hidden handle pulls within the doors deletes the need for exterior handles, allowing an even sleeker appearance. Crisper controls eliminates the iced up vegetable problem. Additional feature of a filtered water dispenser inside the refrigerator saves tons of money in bottled water purchases!
I was debating between differnt models of side-by-sides because I really wanted the water and ice maker. Well Come to find out this fridge has both, and costs about 700 dollars less. It's a great looking, great preforming fridge.
We bought this fridge about 6 months ago & love it. It's spacious enough to fit everything we need & the water dispenser is wonderful. I'd highly recommend. The only downfall I found is that our Sears does not carry the filter replacements, so we have to order them online.
