My requirements was a black colored bottom freezer with an external ice/water dispenser. I did research online at Consumer Reports and had ideas of what I wanted. This model was one of the few that met those requirements. I really like the space available. The only issue I have with it is that the external ice dispenser is noisy and wish they had maybe designed a little more sound proofing in the door. I believe there isn't much that can be done for a bottom freezer with an external icemaker, since the icemaker is on top and the freezer is on bottom. Other than that, I would recommend this to anyone that has similar requirements that I have.
Yes, I recommend this product.

We are very happy with our purchase. The interior has plenty of room, the ice/water dispenser works well. It is a very sturdy and tight close so the food remains at a good temperature. We bought this as a replacement for an LG and think that this is better quality.
Yes, I recommend this product.

After spending a few weeks researching my options, this is the refrigerator I chose and I couldn't be happier.
I almost chose a model by Maytag that was similar, but it didn't have nearly as much storage in the left side door due to the ice maker.
While I have only had it for 3 days, I absolutely love it so far!!! Here are the things I like the best about it. I had a side-by-side Amana and I was concerned that the freezer on this new one would be a bit too small after looking at it in person at my local Home Depot. Looks can certainly be decieving, because it is very, very roomy! There is even a cool (no pun intended) little place to store frozen pizzas so they will stand upright in the freezer.
The refrigerator is huge and has two shelves that slide out slightly, which is very handy. The small shelf on the upper left has a hinge on it so you can lift it up & out of the way to store taller items on that side. There is also a shelf on the right side where you can push the front portion of the shelf toward the back of the fridge so it slides underneath the rear portion of the shelf (making the shelf half it's original size) in order to make more space for taller items in front of the shelf. I love the deli drawer too!! I also like having a door alarm that lets you know if you didn't close the door all the way after 30 seconds.
The ice maker has impressive output speed. We had to throw out the first batch of ice per the installation instructions, but the ice drawer was full in no time! I had actually purchased a bag of ice that evening but didn't even need to use any of it.
After having the fridge installed it only took about 2-3 hours to get up to temperature. I also love the TurboCool feature for both the fridge and freezer, which turns itself off automatically after the ideal temp has been reached.
The display is great too! Oh and it's much quieter than my old fridge too!
Overall, I am super stoked about this purchase. We have a large family to feed so it has been a great purchase for us. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is considering this item.
Yes, I recommend this product.

After reviewing sooo many french door refrigerators, I finally decided on the GE Profile. I couldn't be happier! Its roomy, and bright; has a great design and accommodates lots of large platters when entertaining. Ice maker makes plenty of ice. Love the alarm on the door which lets you know if its even slightly ajar after 3 minutes. The freezer space is great. After having a side by side for many years (and complaining about it for many years!), I am thrilled with this fridge.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Purchased this refrigerator during the incrediable sale days. It arrived to the store as scheduled. Jill in special services was fantastic when I picked it up, she quickly had it out to the loading zone and was off to set it up at home. Had to remove the handles on the refrig. door, which had set screws for easy removal. The room in this refrig. is fantastic and draws are wonderful. It is so quiet! Ice maker was full the next morning and ready to go. Led light is great. Replaced my GE side by side after 21 years and still running, but was getting a little noisy. This is a quality refrigerator.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I bought this model in June 2009 to replace my old side-by-side GE model when it finally died. I wanted more storage space and options that my old model just couldn't provide. Gone are the days when I couldn't store a frozen pizza in my freezer and other unusually shaped/sized items! The freezer is very generously sized to supplement my stand-alone upright freezer. This unit (and ice maker in particular) is very quiet compared to my older model and does a fine job of keeping me supplied with ice cubes. The refrigerator shelving options (the one next to the ice maker flips up, and another shelf pushes back & hides away to form a half shelf) are perfect when it comes to rearranging things in order to store larger/taller items and the spill-proof design feature is a nice touch, as well. The wine shelf comes in very handy when needed and you can't beat the pull-out feature of the shelves in order to get to hard to reach items in the back! The option to change temperatures for the deli/vegetable drawer is a very smart and unexpected feature. I also love the LED lighting, too. I've highly recommended this model to all my family members if/when they decide to replace their refrigerators.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I looked all over and found no one brand or product that got rave reviews. So I decided to go on what our family was looking for. I LOVE this fridge. It is SOOO quiet. We have no problem with the ice maker at all and the water taste great, we have hard water. The 1st night we had it the ice bucket was full in the morning. The doors don't stick at all and the whole design is fantastic. I was looking for a side by side at first but realizing I hate struggling to get my fruits and veggies out of the bottom bin I decided on this and couldn't be happier. The only thing I would suggest have it delivered and set up. It is a huge and heavy unit. It took my set up guys almost 2 hours to get it in and set it. They did great though. All in all this is an amazing and beauiful fridge. Don't hesitate to buy.
Yes, I recommend this product.

The main reason we decided to purchase a new refrigerator was because of energy conservation. Our existing fridge was given to us from our parents and was over 20 years old. We will be getting $100 back from our electric company by giving them the old fridge and buying a EnergyStar certified one. We did a lot of research on Consumer Reports and the web. We also read the existing reviews for this product. Overall, we are very pleased! We like the humidity control for the vegetables/fruit. There's plenty of room and almost all the shelves are adjustable to meet your needs. A concern seemed to be the ice maker; however, it hasn't been an issue for us--family of 4. Great fridge!!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I love this style refrigerator! It is much easier to organize and store food in the refrigerator and treezer than in the side by side I had for years. I almost bought the GE Profile side by side but was so impressed by access in the refrigerator and freezer I changed my mind. The freezer is deep with easy access drawers and convenient places to store food. This freezer holds more than my comparable side by side freezer could hold. Two drawbacks...my husband insists this refrigerator is noisier than our old GE side. The center drawer in the refrigerator comes off the track when you open when you open the drawer. I plan to call for a service visit on this matter.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Beautiful fridge and very nice and user friendly. But the huge downfall is the ice maker is terrible. Makes about 60 small cubes a day. If you like ice this is not the unit for you. The ice maker is in the refrigerator so can't make it cooler and it only makes 5 cubes every 80-120 minutes. Took back and got the profile side by side and it's got a great ice maker all though not as nice as the french but size and ice are most important. If not an ice person then this is an awesome refrigerator.
Yes, I recommend this product.

The refrigerator has a nice design but only produces about 20 cubes of ice a day. There are just two people in our family and we have to buy ice on a regular basis.
The humidity drawers are nice and vegetables stay fresh longer than my old refrigerator.
The "drip pan" under the ice/water is too small and has to be spunged out daily or it overflows. If you are used to a lot of bottles or condiment this is NOT the refrigerator for you.
There is a suction to the freezer and the drawer is hard to open.
Overall, I wish I had bought a side by side.
No, I do not recommend this product.

I bought this fridge to replace a working 10 year old side by side fridge that I had in my kitchen. It was just too small and the side by side setup was limiting the types of food and containers I could fit in the fridge and freezer. Along came this fridge and I have been in heaven. I have had it for 2.5 months now and have no complaints. The freezer is nice and big and has plenty of organizational features with the small pull out drawer and then the divider in the big bottom area. The fridge has a lot of nice features with the adjustable shelves. I definitely use those a lot since we have a lot of beverages in our fridge. When my parents and in laws visit they always bring a cooler of their own drinks with them and I have plenty of room for their stuff plus all of the food I'm preparing for their visit. The ice maker/water dispenser works great. I just can't say enough good things about this fridge at this time. I settled on the white since I have toddlers constantly hanging on my fridge and didn't want to deal with all the handprints that show up on stainless. It looks great! The one caution I have is that it is a BIG fridge so sometimes I'll get lazy and leave leftovers in there too long since I have so much space (bad I know, I should try to keep on top of those leftovers).
Some notes, since the ice/water dispenser is on top, your in-door shelving for condiments is limted. I just use the back of the top shelf for the extras since I am short and don't reach up to that area a lot. No big deal. The dispenser takes up a minimal amount of space, I was concerned about having it take up my fridge space but it hasn't been a problem. LOVE the deli drawer, I keep cheese, wine, etc, in there. I kept my old fridge in the garage as backup in case I needed more space, but so far it has remained unplugged, maybe I'll need it for the holidays but that's it. I shop once a week and plan about 5-6 dinners for a family of four. This fridge fits it all.
Yes, I recommend this product.

It has everything I was needing. I've never had a problem with getting crushed ice, it's always there, and we go thru lots of it. Also the help from the internet people was great, and the installers were fantastic...careful, considerate, and efficient....they knew what they were doing.
I highly recommend. Arle

This fridge is amazing. Have not had any ice making issues, the following am after plugging in the ice bin was full. Runs very quiet. Love the freezer section and the sections for frozen canned juices, pizza, individual drawers.
The fridge shelves are great for various sized items....love the large veggie drawer...and the lighting is great. Water taste great and comes out very cold, ice isn't even needed.
Yes, I recommend this product.

We purchased this refrigerator and received it on 6/15/2010. We chose this particular model because it was a GE and it had all the extras that we wanted. I love the way the ice cube maker is in the left hand side of the fridge. It doesn't take up any space on the inside of the door. My family loves the ease of getting the ice and water right from the door. I would highly recommend this fridge to anyone.

Had the refrigerator a little over a year. Ice maker just went, repairman ordered me a new one - has not yet been installed. Now the display is blinking 88-88, I am in hopes the temp is still good! Should have listened to the other reviews. Looks like I will need a new board!!!!

If you're coming from a side by side, you may have a hard time adjusting to the new french door. It didn't look like everything would fit from the old one but it did. In my opinion, there's more refrigerator space then a SBS. You just have to adjust how you fill it. Also, we did our research on all the new French Door models and they all seem to have problems with the ice makers in the doors. They just don't make them like they use to. our old Kenmore SBS lasted 18 years with no problems but these new ones aren't builit the same way. The ice maker is extremely loud when it drops ice and you can hear the water line every now and then. My husband is a Refrigerator mech so I'm not too worried. It is a beautiful fridge especially in S. Steel atho when the Grandkids come over, you don't have to wipe the fingerprints, which I'm not used to. We actually laugh when we hear the ice maker because we were expecting that to happen. Like I said before, all the brands out there seem to have these problems these days so i don't think you'll get away from these Ice maker problems whichever you go with. I really do like the freezer on the bottom only if you get the freezer drawer that comes out with it. Makes all the difference in the world.
Yes, I recommend this product.
