Pros: Modern, clean lines. Great for large platters and trays. Quiet.
Cons: Tends to freeze liquid items located in the very back. Sensitive to temp. changes.
The Bottom Line: Beautiful appliance - friends are surprised to find it's a Jenn-Air. A year old and no major issues to date.

| mrs_rad's Full Review: Jenn-Air JFC2089HE (19.8 cu. ft.) French Door Refr... |
I like the look of commercial appliances but didn't want to spend a lot, so I was lucky enough to find this gorgeous Jenn-Air fridge at a fraction of the cost of similar models. The stainless steel surface and elegant towel bar handles with "diamond-etched grip" sold me on the appliance.
I noticed that this fridge is very sensitive to temperature changes - opening it too often will cause a temp. increase and the sensor will beep for some time until the correct temp. is regained (happened recently during a party, and the beeping was quite annoying). Another temperature issue: some liquids froze if kept in the very back of the fridge at 38/39F. Yes, the freezer is small and it's not easy to retrieve items located at the bottom of the drawer (that's why we're still getting use out of our old fridge now sitting in the garage). Also, we rarely, if ever, use the internal water dispenser as it's just not convenient to use: it's a two-handed process, and what comes out is barely a trickle.
I love the wide storage drawer with divider that can be moved or removed. I haven't had any issues with the crisper drawers - they open and close with ease. Wine hold bin is a nice touch. Not at all noisy. Have had this fridge for a year now, and I'm quite happy with my purchase.
