Samsung : RF265ABBP 26 cu. ft. French-Door Refrigerator - Black Pearl Review

I don't really think it's louder than my side by side 10 yr old Whirlpool, but the hum is a little higher pitched and just loud enough to be annoying.
The beautiful, shinny black finish scratches easily. I put up a drawing made by my 2 year old and moved the magnet slightly to straighten the drawing, and scratched the finish. It's not noticeable unless you catch it in just the right light, but enough that I will not be putting anything else on the front of the frig.
Otherwise, I love this frig, way better than my side by side that is suppose to be the same size inside. This model does not have the water dispenser, and that is why I got it; instead of the RF266 which has the inside water dispenser.. or the RF267 with the dispensers in the door. The ice maker is hidden in the freezer; if I took out the ice tray you wouldn't see the ice maker and it doesn't take up any useable space inside. It is SO much easier and nicer to get to the ice that we actually use ice for the first time in years. You do have to open the freezer, but the ice is easy to see to see, there is a scooper in a holder in front of the ice bucket, and the bucket is easy to remove if you want a lot of ice or need to clean it. Best of all, It is way easier to see and find everything in the freezer. I was afraid it would be harder because things would be stacked; but there is so much more room in this freezer, I didn't have to stack anything. My completely loaded freezer from the side by side is neatly tucked away in my new freezer with EVERYTHING accessible I have all the small stuff in the top drawer, juices in the front, tilt shelf and larger items in the two large compartments. Nothing is on top of anything else, leaving so much more room in the freezer.
All the door racks in the frig are gallon size and the shelves are all glass. You can arrange the shelves so that they go across the entire frig, or split them and have different height selves on either side. I have some going all the way across for large cakes and party trays, and some split so I have the height I need for a 2 1/2 gal water container.
This frig is the same wideth as my side by side but it's a little taller and deeper, but somehow it doesn't stick out more than my older side by side, I'm not sure why. I did a lot of reading about these french door refrigerators and choose this one because of the high ratings and the fact that it is listed as having the most USABLE interior space inside (of any french door or side by side of the same size - 26 cu ft). I bought mine at Lowes, on sale for just over $1000 plus $110 in tax and an extended 5 year warranty for $119. I couldn't believe the price. This frig is well worth the full retail price. I highly recommend it.

Fisher & Paykel : E522BRXU Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator (Right Hinge) Review

Fisher & Paykel : E522BRXU Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought my house, and found that the previous owners had done their own kitchen remodel which left a really strange size cutout for the fridge.It took me weeks to find this one which (as far as I can tell) is the only counter depth and narrow refrigerator.Anyway, it is a good fridge.No complaints.The fridge is cool looking, but the only reason that I can think someone would buy this one is for size.If you aren't restricted by size, I would look at a wider fridge.

Good things to know... There is an inline water filter (works good, easy to change), ice maker doesn't take up too much room, the fridge is counter depth (they don't advertise it as such but you can tell by the dimensions and the back is flat).The inside is small but the fridge doesn't look freakishly small.Oh, the ice maker is temperamental; it doesn't bother me but if you love ice this could be a problem.

Almost no one carries these; if you need to "see" it I found a Samsungat the big box retailers that is about the same size.If more than two people live in your house, or you like to buy big soda bottles, etc., maybe take a peek at something with similar dimensions before you buy.

Product Description:
With a Fisher & Paykel appliance you gain the benefit of 70 years of appliance innovation. Established in 1934 with an enterprising spirit, Fisher & Paykel has developed an innovative culture that challenges conventional appliance design. Rethinking how to store and preserve food, Fisher & Paykel was on a mission when it created Active Smart, an advanced refrigeration system. Active Smart uses unique electronic intelligence to continuously monitor and adapt its cooling conditions, adjusting the flow of cold air based on daily use and climate conditions. So it's not working overtime or under par, just smarter and more efficiently. Even the produce bins provide maximum care. Humidity controls keep lettuce green, herbs garden-fresh and fruit crisp for up to two weeks. What about the homemade gazpacho in the refrigerator, or the just churned ice cream in the freezer? Independent sensors accurately monitor temperatures in both compartments to maintain the safest most precise temperature. Active Smart technology has been given a new addition, an integrated water dispenser providing you with chilled filtered water and an internal ice maker for clean, crisp ice cubes on demand. With no impact on space in the freezer or refrigerator door, this is the perfect addition to the Active Smart family.

Whirlpool GI7FVCXWY GI7FVCXWY French Door Refrigerator Review

Water and ice worked for about 2 minutes, since then I have not been able to get any ice or water from the door.Whirlpool sent some parts and admitted it is a common problem because the waterlines freezes, but it still doesn't work. I attempted to defrost it with a hair dryer for 2 hours but that didn't work either. It freezes produce closing the humidifier slots helps some.The touch panel is fussy it doesn't always register your preference.2 repair calls and it is still not fixed this is a high end disaster. This is a new design and Whirlpool has some serious design work to do on this model.

I upgraded from the standard freezer on top and no water dispenser or ice maker and this review is coming from that perspective.

We bought this fridge because of the dimensions that fit our space.We couldn't get the standard 35 3/4 in width fridge.We looked at LG and the thing I like about this fridge is the internal water dispenser.It means that you do not need to lose any interior space.I'm glad I didn't get the LG because the loss of door space would have been a problem.The ice maker is in the freezer (no crushed ice) and works fast.It makes 100 cubes a day.

The interior space seems to be the same actual space as the old fridge but there are many configuration options making better use of the space, possibly.Not sure if it really makes a difference.

The thing I like the most is the fact that I do not need to bend down to see what's in the fridge.

A few other things that I'd like to mention because I have seen them in other reviews:
Noise: More than a fridge without an ice maker not really noticeable.
Energy efficiency: Seems OK.
Stainless steel: Get the stainless steel spray cleaner (not the wipes).Does a great job keeping the prints off.
Ice maker: Cranks out the ice.Once I think the there-is-enough-ice sensor didn't detect that the ice was full.You can turn off the ice maker so no biggie.
Water dispenser: It has an easy to change filter accessible inside the fridge.Water tastes excellent.The first gallon or so had a plastic taste (I also used a plastic water line) but it went away.I hear this is common.
Freezer drawers: There are three.It seems ok.Very different from the old top freezer.I like it but it makes you pack more efficiently so you can slide the drawers.This tends to force you to pay attention to what you have in the freezer rather than just tightly packing it in like in the old days.

Overall I am very happy with the fridge and would recommend it to anyone.I realized that after I bought the fridge that there was a model with an external water dispenser that doesn't take any space away from the interior (ice maker is still in the freezer). Had this been available when I bought it, I may have opted for it.Still I have no regrets.
