A few weeks ago we bought a new refrigerator. After a lot of looking
around we decided we wanted a French Door model with lower freezer. Ice maker is a must. We shopped our favorite appliance dealer and found this: http://www.samsung.com/us/appliances...RF28HFEDBSR/AA The place we buy appliances is a local company that specializes in selling floor models, discontinued models, scratch and dent, overstocks, etc. They also sell refurbished used appliances. So far we have bought a stove, washing machine and now this refrigerator. This unit is selling at Sears for around $1800. Our refrigerator is brand new, has two small dents in the door (one way up high, the other way down low). All the protective factory film was still on the unit when we got it. We paid $750, including tax and delivery and set up.... and removal of our old unit... which they will probably clean up, check out and sell for around $150. The unit is so big that all the doors had to come off to get it into the house... and I had to remove the front door. It is probably too big for our kitchen, but we tend to buy things in bulk when they are on sale. We will be remodeling our kitchen this Fall... should probably have done that first, but this was too good a deal to pass up. Digital controls... fridge is set at 36 degrees and the freezer at 6 degrees. I know they recommend Zero degrees but Ice cream gets too hard to serve at that temperature. Everything else besides the ice cream degrees is rock hard at 6 degrees, so that is where we set it. Three weeks and everything works perfectly. The ice maker is a bit loud, but so was our old one. I like the LED lighting. I find I am still opening both doors when I want something from the refrigerator. With time, we'll get everything settled in place and only have to open one door to grab what we want. We are pretty happy with this purchase. George L |
