Pros: nice design, shelf versatility, ice/h20 in the door, tons of space
Cons: Stainless steel on front warps from cleaning, button for ice/water won't last long.
The Bottom Line: A product of this price should offer a little more in the way of durability, but it is otherwise well designed and attractive. I'd probably buy again for around $1750.
fillossofer's Full Review: General Electric GFSS6KKXSS Stainless Steel (25.8 ...
My family has had this fridge since November 07. We love the freezer on the bottom, and the french door design. The only problem is the apparently razor thin stainless steel that causes the front to warp. Light is reflected off the door fronts such that it looks flimsy and cheap. I feel an appliance at this price should be at least as durable as a cheap laminate fronted model. This one is not. There was a slight indentation in the steel on the day it was delivered and it has since gotten worse all over the front. Other than that, it is a great fridge. The design is very good with spacious drawers and versatile shelves. At Thanksgiving we had two 12lb. turkeys in the freezer along with all our other stuff with no problem. The ice maker doesn't take up too much room and it is well worth the space that it does. When ice drops from the machine during ice making it is quite loud, but the compressor is nearly silent. The ice/water dispenser design is brilliant; large cups can get ice/water just as easy as small ones because it is tilted. Water dispenses somewhat slowly, but the filtration seems to work well, as the water tastes good. I'm a little wary about the life of the button that switches between water, cubed and crushed ice though. You have to press it three times to get cubed ice water(my family of four probably presses it 30+ times a day). I've only rarely used the "turbo" functions and we still have it set to the default temperatures, which seem to be perfect (milk doesn't give you brain freeze and ice cream is scoopable). I do plan to contact GE about the doors and ask about the button.
UPDATE: I called GE this morning about the stainless steel warping. After being transferred three times I was told they do not cover aesthetic problems beyond 30-days of purchase. This ugly warped thing is mine now.
UPDATE 2 - GE Called me back to ask whether I was satisfied with my customer service call. When I explained the situation they agreed to send someone out. They came last week and now I have new doors on the way! :)
