Whirlpool GI7FVCXWY 27.0 cu. ft. Capacity French-Door Refrigerator (Stainless Steel) Review

Whirlpool GI7FVCXWY 27.0 cu. ft. Capacity French-Door RefrigeratorI am pretty disappointed with this refrigerator.

First, I am really amazed at how small the ice storage is.I don't know about models where the ice maker is in the bottom with the freezer but for our model where the ice maker is in the door we only get about 1/3 the capacity of ice compared to our last refrigerator.I know this for certain because we still have that fridge in our basement and I actually used the new ice maker to fill the old ice box.This means for any small gathering you are going to have to get extra ice!

Secondly, we paid the premium price to get the Whirlpool name and after only seven months old we have a repair call.The unit has a digital thermostat on the door for the refrigerator portion but even when set at 40 degrees we have frozen solid orange juice and it ruined the leafy vegetables.We had steaks thawing on the counter but they were frozen solid after a night back in the fridge.

Finally, the whole French Door thing was kind of interesting but after having one I'd rather have the side by side back.I use the freezer a lot and I hate constantly bending over to get things.With the side by side I kept what I used most (fridge or freezer) at the most convenient height.)

Some bright spots are that it has a door ajar alarm.Especially good when you have kids.
