(More customer reviews)Let's put it this way, I had a Whirlpool double wide before and bought in to this French door stuff and will never buy one again. Please make sure you consider how you will access your frozen foods. Also consider how much space will be taken in order to get ice and water out the front door. Also note that you have to open both doors most of the time to access most of your foods. Here are the issues with this model:
1) Although the manual shows a onetime leveling mechanism through the wheels, in actuality you have to level it through leveling feet. Thus once you have it level you will have to unlevel it to move the refrigerator to clean. That is a pain and sucks they didn't correct their manual to show it.
2) The website graphics show a dairy bin, but in actuality you don't get one and you can't purchase one. Now we drop our butter in their soda holder which is useless anyways.
3) They give you this soda metal slide out rack that is at an angle for the sodas to roll out. The problem is that we don't have a need for two soda holders. You can't use the rack for anything else except sodas based on it design. We use it now to sloppily hold yogurts.
4) Although this is Energy Star, they have to put a dehumidify heater between the two French doors in order for moisture not to form on the outside of the refrigerator. This is a feature you turn on if needed and it only took a day to realize I have to keep this heater on all the time, so much for energy savings.
5) They use the Ice maker as a way to distribute the cooling into the refrigerator. Unfortunately things are so ergonomically tight that all the milk and water products freeze. The solution has been to raise the freezer temperature up from 0 to 4 degrees and seems to solve the problem. However, it is really just a poor design issue.
I am really disappointed in the poor design of the Whirlpool product and also in the fundamentals of French doors.
