For the most part I love it! I've always wanted one as my grandmother
had one all those years ago and I feel sentimental about it. Except hers
was one of those older appliances with the rounded edges, not unlike one
Rachel Ray displays on her show.
I am *so* glad I didn't get the "French Door" model. This is a working
fridge and I don't want to guess which door to open to find something.
Nothing frou-frou about this model and I like the classic look of it. I
can certainly live without a door ice/water dispenser too. Consumers
Reports reports that a majority of the repairs were on that feature.

So far the only thing I've not loved is that instead of using the eye
level freezer door for my "spice cabinet", I now have to look "down"
onto the bottle tops of the spices. I had to label the tops of the jars
and place them in a a large plastic bin. But the freezer seems to hold
more than my other eye level freezer. It has three pull out shelves.

Did I mention that this brand new fridge ended up only costing $920?? It
was a floor sample and after I purchased it they accidentally dented the
bottom far right corner (note small black sticker over ding in original
picture) and Sears gave us another $124 off the price. It originally
listed for $2050. I'm going to slap a chrome auto emblem (picking the
team!) on it and you'll never know it wasn't meant to be that way.
