Iām very happy with my purchase of this refrigerator on July 15, 2022. It was over $500 less here on Amazon than HD/Lowes and was in stock as well (was not at the others). Iām unsure if their appliances come with free installation though.
PROS:
– The interior lighting is vibrant and adjustable (via the app). LED wall is attractive and useful.
– Iām finding the convertible drawer more and more useful. Initially I was wondering why I had opted for this feature, but Iām glad I did. Perfect location for cold cuts, cheeses, eggs, drinks etc. Far more convenient than opening the doors. The drawer offers multiple temperature options depending on your needs. Just wonderful.
– Ice cubes are smaller than my old GE Profile. Cubes are crescent shaped and approximately 1 inch in length. The smaller size fits easier in smaller cocktail glasses etc.
– Freezer offers a lot of space. Far more than expected.
– Door-In-Door feature is great for frequently accessed items like coffee creamers and the like. I use it 3 times as often as opening the main doors.
– The downloadable app is a nice feature that allows modifying the settings and lighting. Also provides pertinent notifications.
– The auto-fill water feature is a really nice touch. I have RO filters in the house so doubt I will use this often but Iām impressed by the tech š
– I understand that the water filter will mandate replacement after 6 months on avg. Since I have a whole-house filter I called and ordered the āWR17X33825 filter bypass plugā from GE. They shipped it free of charge and took less than a week to arrive by mail.
CONS:
– Although there is a lot of interior refrigerator space, it feels as if there is less door shelf space than my previous GE. The fixed shelves on the left door are smaller and narrower as well.
– The Door-In-Door shelves are running about 5 degrees (Farenheit) warmer than the interior of the fridge so plan accordingly. I have my interior temperature set to 35 F and my DID shelves run 39-40 F.
– The ice bin is half the size of my previous side-by-side GE. Seems to fill rapidly though so aside from bulk ice for parties, etc., doubt this will impact me at all.
Be advised that āSome Assembly Is Requiredā applies here. The delivery folks brought the unit into my kitchen (thank you fellas), but I tackled the rest. A lot of packing tape and protective film to remove. That was the lion-share of the efforts. A razor blade works best to remove the film without hanging pieces at the seams. Interior shelves and door handles after that. Finally one needs to properly level the unit, then level the doors so they are even. That was a bit of a project for me as my doors were WAY off. After adjusting both doors fully in opposite directions to get close, I needed to loosen the mounting screws to get the rest of the way there. Overall it took about a day and a half to finish the installation. Your mileage will vary.
I’m giving this refrigerator 4.5 stars. Since there’s no option for a half star on Amazon I’ll round up to 5. My only complaint was with the doors. Took a lot of effort to get them level at the top and I have a uneven gap between the doors and the convertible drawer due to the maximum adjustment needed. I also have no info on longevity. Hoping for 10 years. I’ll repost if I experience issues with reliability.

I can’t even tell you how happy I am with my new fridge. It is replacing my favorite fridge of all time that I did not want to part with. I needed a fridge for a rental that I own and my husband suggested that we keep the new fridge here and put my favorite older fridge in the rental. I said ONLY if I could find a fridge I liked more than the one I had. Who wouldn’t want a new fridge… right? Stubborn me. I shopped at local appliance stores, big box retail stores and online. I saw this one at Home Depot and a sister model (Cafe) at an appliance store. I was surprised at the price difference. By shopping online at Amazon, I saved between $500 – $700. Not only that, by buying it from this Seller at Amazon, I could get it quicker, PLUS the delivery included the drivers setting up the fridge in the house!
They even hauled off all the boxing, tape and plastic. WOW.
The manual said the freezer would be the first to cool down, not so in my case. I would guess it took about 6 hours for the fridge to cool down and about 12-14 hours for the freezer. I LOVE all the space it offers, the swing out door, the soft close veggie drawers, the flexible middle drawer and the freezer with a large slide out and compartments on the drawer. I am not having to dig for what I’m looking for anymore. Setup was simple.
I haven’t used the “wifi” option, so I can’t comment on that. If I do, I’ll edit my review.
Have I told you today how much I LOVE MY NEW FRIDGE? TEN stars from me!

The freezer won’t freeze. It keeps making this sound like an airplane ready to take off.

Do not buy the ge profile refrigerator the compressor and cool system went out just under a year and a half ago and ge said it had a five year warranty but they wonāt fix it and and Amazon said there a-z warranty would take of it for me but they lied and didnāt turn it so nobody will take of my refrigerator so I guess I need to findely talk to a lawyer because I donāt know what left to do. Please do not buy Wanda Basham. It doesnāt deserve a one star rating

The GE Profile 27 cu ft more than meets storage space needs. I love the middle drawer with its own temp control. I was concerned about a bottom loading freezer, but it poses no use or access to frozen foods. The cabinet has a right side double door with access to milk, sodas without getting into the main cabinet. I buy a lot of fresh vegetables and the crispers are great. I actually think they keep my produce fresh longer. I love the ice maker in the door. I canāt say enough good things about this fridge! Great value for the money!

GE hurts their brand by requiring a $60 RFID replacement water filter that only GE produces, locking out competitors.

We are enjoying our new refrigerator. The interior lighting is adjustable and goes from very bright to off using your app. My grandchildren love the auto water filler. Crushed ice is nice. Wish the door shelf was adjustable. It would be nice if it held a bottle of wine or large bottle of soft drink. We are enjoying the middle drawer with adjustable temps. Delivery folks tore up our front porch snd left behind a mess. But they appeared to be private hires.

I like the lights, the size is nice, the color is lovely. The space is well organized and easier to adjust than others. I like how the ice maker is built into the door alright so opening the fridge doesn’t let warm air into the ice maker. The auto fill is way cooler than I thought it would be.
I had a Samsung before this. I’ve if their nicest models. The ice maker was having problems within a year and never got fixed despite many attempts and had no support available.
GE has the best support network but doesn’t need it. Absolutely top notch.
