SAMSUNG RF267ABRS 26CF FR DR STNGS 1W ESTR Review

SAMSUNG RF267ABRS 26CF FR DR STNGS 1W ESTRI was going to buy a side by side samsung model but my inlaws beat me to the punch and gifted us this really nice fridge.

Don't get confused w\ my 3 star review... the fridge is really nice, I'd never have bought a $2000+ refridgerator! but... it was a gift, what can you do ?!

So, why only 3 stars?

The Ice Maker is absolutely horrid.One morning I was drinking from a plastic cup and i'd been drinking it... all of a sudden i notice some white shavings in my cup.Turns out, it was white plastic shavings from the icemaker.We had a broken piece and it was pushing shaved pieces of plastic out w\ the ice.They came out looked at it, and shipped us a new ice tray.

I have a feeling that the crushed ice is most of the problem, because it leaves crushed ice at the edge which then melts and drips down...The icemaker sits in the refrigerator portion which naturally is warmer so as not to freeze you food.So, ice in the icemaker is constantly melting and dripping to the 1/4 inch deep "gutter" they have in the dispenser area.It is to the point that when I get home and open the fridge, there is almost definitely a pool of water on top of the bottom freezer door, and probably on the ground too.This is an absolute pain to have to clean up every single day.It also seems to have a rough time transitioning from crushed to cubed, and often times is very slow to dispense ice.

And now, slightly disturbing... One night, I noticed some kind of orange/reddish liquid on my cup when I was getting ice.I opened the door to inspect and it's rust from what I think is the ice crushing fixture.So, this too has to be cleaned every few days and I'm not sure that's very healthy to have rust in my icemaker.

Another poor design is the water dispenser which is at an angle inwards toward the fridge, so forget about filling a water bottle with cold filtered water... you're just going to make a mess and get water all over the place for sure.

The fridge is roomy, it has some very nice features both in the fridge and in the freezer...It's much bigger than what my wife and I were using for the past couple of years.So to wrap it up.This is a really nice refridgerator.It has alot of room and some nice featurs like shelves that lift up if you need to fit taller things there.It is really nice ! BUUUUT... The icemaker sucks and it was poorly designed.I wish it included some sort of drainage to take care of the water that is constantly accumulating on my floor from overflow.The only way to fix this would be to turn the icemaker off and not use it, or to set the refidgerator to 32 degrees and thereby have a 26 cubic foot freezer in order to keep the constantly melting ice under control.

Samsung 20 Cu Ft French Door Refrigerator with Twin cooling,Stainless Steel: RF217ABRS Review

Samsung 20 Cu Ft French Door Refrigerator with Twin cooling,Stainless Steel: RF217ABRSNEUTRAL:bottom freezer means fridge contents easy to see/access but freezer contents hard to see and older contents buried.shallow.

PROS:Attractive as these things go. Fits our space.Digital thermometers.Pleasant chimes sound out when pressing buttons. It seems to refrigerate and freeze enthusiastically and it is quieter than its predecessor. I trust it won't piddle on the floor like its predecessor did.It hasn't yet.

CONS:(i) Pull-out freezer door mechanism is very rough, metal scraping on metal. Floor models and most IKEA drawers perform better. QC?(ii)"EZ-Open Handle" on freezer drawer tends to detach in ordinary use."EZ-Broken Handle" is nearer the mark.This looks like it may be a design flaw.This didn't happen with the floor models, but it didn't occur to me that the handle should fall off, so I never thought to push the point while in the store.(iii) there are very few shelf height adjustments allowed.Consequently we removed one of the shelfs in order to fit milk and other ordinary-sized bottles.

Amana : AFD2535DEB 24.8 Cu. Ft. Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator - Black Review

Amana : AFD2535DEB 24.8 Cu. Ft. Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator - BlackWe've had this fridge for a little over two years, and I've just made my second repair call.The first time (about 3 months ago), the freezer was working fine, but the fridge was warm.The tech said a controller board malfunctioned causing the duct from the freezer (the only part of the unit that gets chilled) to ice over, preventing cold air from entering the upper compartment (the fridge).Now, the compressor/fan only runs when the door is opened, and the fridge compartment is gradually warming up.We paid >$2000 for it, and would NOT buy this (maybe even ANY Amana product) again!

Whirlpool : GX5FHDXVY Refrigerator Review

Whirlpool : GX5FHDXVY RefrigeratorI've had my fridge for about 1 month now, and so far it's been working fine.It looks pretty and all, BUT I have to say that I am not very happy with the storage capacity of this fridge.The door bins are curved, so you can fit VERY FEW items in one bin.You can't fit many tall things (i.e. wine bottles after they've been opened) if you have some other things there like milk and/or juice.The coke can dispenser is nice IF YOU DRINK FROM CANS!We don't and there's no way to change out that bin.It's just that my older Kenmore fridge (much cheaper) had a LOT more storage than this one.Too many curves in this model, which really bringe down storage capacity.

This was the one item that I did not look at carefully when buying my kitchen appliances. Probably would not buy it again.

Samsung : RF266ABBP 26 cu. ft. French-Door Refrigerator - Black Pearl Review

Samsung : RF266ABBP 26 cu. ft. French-Door Refrigerator - Black PearlThe manual that came with this fridge did not match the actual model. Tech support (Samsung)
was useless in setting up the fridge electronics. You'll have to google for proper instructions.

I did not know how I would like water inside rather than in the door, but I have come to like this

LG : LFC25770SB Refrigerator Review

LG : LFC25770SB RefrigeratorI purchased this fridge from another retailer in Aug 2007. I loved it and was so pleased with it until the ice maker kept breaking, and then it leaked, and then we realized the freezer wasn't keeping the desired temperature- freezing. I tried the manufacturers suggestions but it didn't seem to help. After a couple months of denial and a 20 degree freezer (it's supposed to be 0), I called an authorized service technician who took the freezer apart and told me that i had a "sealed system leak". Probably the worst repair possible because even though the major parts are still under warranty the labor to repair my 2 year old, highly rated, Consumer Reports recommended, expensive but beautiful would cost $700 to repair. And considering the comments I've seen on other websites, the repair probably won't last. Do yourself a favor and pick something else because LG won't stand behind their products and a class action suit may be in the offing.

Whirlpool Monochromatic Satina Side-By-Side Counter Depth Refrigerator Review

Whirlpool Monochromatic Satina Side-By-Side Counter Depth RefrigeratorWe just purchased this refrigerator and are loving the extra space we have in our kitchen with the counter depth design. However, the ice maker gets ice caught up in it after dispensing into a glass and the caught cubes melt and run down the front of the refrigerator. Also, we have similar problems with the water dispenser. The water continues to drip from the dispenser after filling a glass causing it to run down the dispensing flap and down the front of the refrigerator, causing a puddle on the floor. The dispenser shelf itself is not very deep and is a poor design. I'm also having trouble getting accustomed to the storage shelves in the refrigerator door. The very bottom (unadjustable) door shelf is so slim, the only possible thing you could use it for is a kid's juice box which makes it useless for myself and my husband. It fits absolutely nothing else! The three top door shelves adjust and hold gallon milk containers, but it could use one more lower notch to make them more useful for tall items. The fourth adjustable shelf is shallower. The overall space inside of the refrigerator & freezer is fine for us. I just wish we could've seen one of these models in person before we ordered it.

Maytag : MBL1956KES 19 Cu. Ft. Refrigerator - Stainless Steel Review

Maytag : MBL1956KES 19 Cu. Ft. Refrigerator - Stainless SteelI started out to buy a top rated Amana Amana Easy Reach Plus Series ABL1922FES 18.6 cu. ft. Freestanding Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator with 4 Glass Shelves, Adjustable Fresh Food Door Buckets and Deli Drawer: Stainless Steel/Left Hinge Door but it turns out that this is basically the same machine with a few nicer touches, like see-through bins. They are made by the same company.This fridge is pleasant to look at and does not jut out much beyond our counters, so it fits nicely in the kitchen.The inside has some moveable/customizable elements, and it is worth experimenting with them to get the most of the space (we were used to a larger machine). For instance, you may not want to take up shelf space with the bulky egg holder, and the wine rack is best placed away from the area where you want to store large containers.The dual controls come factory set at "4" and that has worked well for us: Ice cream is firm but not a block of ice, and the food in the fridge is the right temp.Some negatives:The freezer drawer is rather hard to open--it takes enough heft that before we loaded up with food we actually moved the refrigerator when we pulled on the drawer.The ice maker has a large bin that takes up a lot of freezer space. It makes a huge amount of ice before shutting off, more than most people would have use for. Finally a word about the stainless steel front: It is delicate. The manufacturer warns you not to use paper towels, because they will scratch it!It has a visible horizontal grain that will be marred by practically anything, including ketchup.This makes no sense in a kitchen, and a stainless steel appliance should have the qualities we are used to in stainless steel.I've only had this refrigerator for a couple of weeks, so my 4 stars are based on its performance to date and on its appealing exterior. Our last refrigerator (a Kenmore) had its sealed system fail after only 6 years, so it remains to be seen if this Maytag will be any more long lived or trouble free. It has only a one year warranty, so we certainly hope that that isn't a portent.

Electrolux EI26SS55GS 25.9 cu. ft. Side by Side Refrigerator w/IQ-Touch - Stainless Steel Review

Electrolux EI26SS55GS 25.9 cu. ft. Side by Side Refrigerator w/IQ-Touch - Stainless SteelI actually have the EI26SS65GS which only differs slightly with the touch controls.

The high point of this refrigerator that makes it stand out from the crowd is that it is fully constructed in stainless steel while the others just have stainless steel cladding in the front but not on the sides.

This makes for a handsome refrigerator since this is not a counter depth model so the sides show.

Both freezer and refrigerator interior has ample storage. The interior lights have a nice effect of being initally dim at first and then fully brightens up.

A good point is the vacation mode you can set that saves electricityby not turning on the defrosting cycle when you are away.

My only grievance is the the design of the ice dispenser which delivers the ice (both cubes and crushed) which such force and intensity that the ice is spilled all over the floor and a clean up is always necessary. My 4 year old kid is so afraid to use it.

The delivery men do not install the water dispenser hose so I had to do it myself and it was somewhat of an effort threading it properly. I mis-threaded the first hose and had to buy an aftermarket replacement at $7. It seems that the original hose is hard to find item.

For the $2,500 we paid for it, we expected that the Ice dispenser flaw would have been discoverd and remedied before production.

FYI: unit made in Mexico.

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

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

Amana : AFD2535DEW 25.0 cu. ft. Freestanding French Door Refrigerator - White Review

Amana : AFD2535DEW 25.0 cu. ft. Freestanding French Door Refrigerator - WhiteWe saw the Amana French-door bottom-freezer fridge about a year ago and fell in love with it.As it turns out, we have had a fairly mixed experience with it.

I'll say that there are quite a few things that we like about it.Overall, we like the layout and flexibility of this fridge a lot.All of the shelves are adjustable to allow for customizing the space for what we need.The layout makes the fridge feel bigger than the other 25 CF fridges we've used or looked at.The quality of the ice maker and water filtration is nice.I do find the bottom-freezer a nice feature for our family.The best feature of the French-doors for us is that they don't swing open as wide as conventional doors, which is good for energy usage and for not blocking passage through our tight kitchen.They're also convenient when you have to grab something quick out of the door.

That said, after using it a while, there are a few things that we don't like about this fridge:
1)After a few months of use, it started getting kind of loud.As it turns out, this was the sound of the cooling fan dying.When it finally died, we had no cold air in the fridge compartment.It was still under warranty, but I wasn't happy about replacing the fan after only about 7 months.(It's still occasionally louder than I'd prefer, but most of the time it is OK.)
2)The water filter dispenser is on the inside of the fridge compartment rather than on the outside of the unit.Combined with the fact that its flow is a little on the slow side, it seems to me that a lot of energy is wasted each time I have to leave the door open for 30 seconds to get a glass of water.
3)The top cover of the Chef's Pantry drawer is not the highest quality component.It pops off once every two weeks or so for me (though, in fairness, my wife doesn't report this problem, so it might just be me).It's easy to put back on, but something I don't feel that I should have to worry about with a $1600 fridge.

Overall, we probably would buy the same fridge again.I'd probably pass on the water filtration option until they figure out a way to get access from the outside of the fridge.I'd probably also want to make sure to get the extended warranty.

LG : LFX23961ST 22.6 cu. ft. French Door Refrigerator - Stainless Steel1/3/2010:Got this fridge yesterday from Sears except in White.Looks real nice and so far is quieter than my older one.Had a water leak in the door of this fridge on day one but after easily moving the hose coil in the chiller it stopped.The quick-connect water lines don't like to be bent so that was the issue there.The unit cooled down fast and I was able to stock the fridge in an hour after the doors were kept shut.It was hard not opening them to keep looking inside.:)I'm not concerned about the energy consumption.I wanted a small french door fridge with water and ice in the door and this (and the Kenmore version) were the only models that met the specifications.

1/11/2010 Update:I really love this fridge!It is so bright inside. The ice maker keeps up with me filling up my 40oz water bottle with ice every day plus other general use from other people at home.As a bunch of people say as well though on these style fridges, when cubes is selected some crushing action still happens but for the most part whole cubes come out.If you were really fussy about needing just cubes this may be a downfall however it seems to be a problem on all french door fridges with ice in the door.You just have to weigh your options / needs.I use mostly crushed ice when I'm at home and cubes in my water bottle so a little crushed ice with my cubes isn't a problem.Compared to my old fridge/freezer (standard freezer on top model) this fridge/freezer has a lot more room inside however door storage is less because the icemaker takes up the door space.Not a big deal though as I'd rather have more main compartment storage.I'm really happy with the purchase.

1/19/2010 Update:No more complaints here.Love the fridge and all it's features.Freezer on the bottom is great!Lots of room.

LG 22.6-Cubic-Foot Stainless Steel French Door Bottom Freezer Refrigerator Review

LG 22.6-Cubic-Foot Stainless Steel French Door Bottom Freezer RefrigeratorIf you buy this refrigerator we highly recommend an extended warranty and you might want to consider purchasing a freezer to salvage your frozen foods during breakdowns.
Our first breakdown was 41 days after purchase.
The second breakdown was (to the day) one year from delivery. Warranty would not cover it because it was 1 year and 4 days from purchase date. Not delivery date but purchase date.
Third breakdown was one year and 54 days from delivery.
Guess what--we don't give this refrigerator a single recommendation. And by the way, we tried to talk to LG about the number of service calls and their only comment was "have a nice day"

Summit : FF1325SS 10.4 cu. ft. Counter-Depth Top-Freezer Refrigerator - Stainless Steel Doors Review

Summit : FF1325SS 10.4 cu. ft. Counter-Depth Top-Freezer Refrigerator - Stainless Steel DoorsI purchased this fridge because I had a tiny kitchen.On a cu ft basis it is one of the most expensive fridges you can buy.I have redone 3 kitchens in the past 5 years, and have spent about $30,000 on appliances.I have never seen such poor quality.The MAIN problem is that the refrigerator slopes--the bottom is 2" further away from the wall than the top even after I adjust the legs as far into the cavity as possible--it looks like a s___ show.I called Mark Goldman (Summit customer service) to help solving the problem. First he claimed this was how the fridge was designed--the door should close slowly.I said it doesn't--it SLAMS shut.Then clearly demonstrating the design story was invalid, Mark told me I could build up my floor with shims!I said that was ridiculous for $1000 fridge (it's $300 extra for the icemaker).He said I needed proof there was a problem, so I sent an email with a photo of the slanted fridge and a photo of a 36" level on the floor to show it was level (i tried to paste photos here, but can't).Under pressure from the retailer, Summit sent a service rep.The service rep agreed the floor was level and the legs were into the cavity, so there was nothing he could do to fix the problem--that there was clearly a manufacturing or design flaw.When Summit received this information, they said since it wasn't a MANUFACTURING flaw (it was the design flaw--so ALL fridges will have the same problem), they weren't required to do anything about it.So I'm living with the problem.
As an aside, the rest of the quality is no better.the produce drawer is plastic and doesn't slide on the guides well, so soon it will break no matter how careful I am.
