Great Energy Star Refrigerator for the price

 

This refrigerator has LED lights inside to save even more energy than other energy star comparison models that cost more. Has a quick freeze option that allows me to quickly freeze items I have loaded from the grocery store.  Also has a great energy efficient mode when we are gone for the weekend that saves power knowing that the doors will not be opened and closed. 

Very happy with the functionality of this model and it also looks great.

Refrigerator/freezer that doubles as a crock pot!
I was thrilled to get a good deal on this Samsung refrigerator/freezer. Sears delivered it quickly and set it up expertly on a Saturday. I had a full load of ice in just a few hours. However, on Sunday night, the power flickered at my house, as it does from time to time. I got up Monday morning and didn't take anything out of the fridge, but my son called me around mid-day to say all the ice had thawed and run out all over the floor and the fridge was not cold. When I got home from work Monday afternoon, I saw he was right. After pouring through the owner's manual and the set up guide I discovered that this model refrigerator turns itself into "demo" mode whenever there is a power interruption. That means the lights stay on but the compressor stops running, hence, no refrigeration occurs! One obscure reference to this on the set up sheet says you have to manually reset the refrigerator and freezer to start the refrigeration again. Hard to do when you're not at home. A call to Samsung confirmed that this "feature" is indeed designed into this model. However, the unit will turn refrigeration back on automatically when the internal temperature reaches 149.5 degrees! So, a combination refrigerator/freezer/crockpot!!! No one at the Sears store knew about this or told me about it before I bought. However, they did take the unit back and refunded my money, except for the $70 delivery charges. We're still talking about that.

Great Product!

I love the sophisticated stainless look and fingerprint-free external surface this fridge offers. It also has plenty of room and shelves for food storage, energy-conserving features such as lighting, plus an alarm that alerts you if any of the two doors have been left open for more than about 30s-1min. I also like the digital face used to control the settings of the fridge and the water and ice options. I'm glad I chose this fridge.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Google Samsung refrigerator class action lawsuit

Loved for the first 13 months then started sounding like a helicopter every time fan came on...clicking on built up ice. System has defects and Samsung knows it and doesn't care. Worst customer service ever. Repairman won't work on, says useless. Google Samsung refrigerator class action lawsuit and ask yourself if it''s worth taking a chance when there are other options out there.

Run, don't walk away from samsung w/icemakers

If you want ice cubes, don't buy any Samsung unit. The problem is universal to the brand. My initial unit failed after just a few months, they replaced the ice maker, it never produced a single ice cube, it makes ice slivers if you manually hold the reset button in. Nothing I did to increase the water volume worked and I followed their instructions. I developed a leak from a in-line water filter so turned off the water to the unit, a couple of months later the filter replace light came on. Must have a timer because there was no water entering it. The filter life is very short and they are costly to replace. This is the worst purchase I've ever made in appliances and would not recommend to an enemy much less a friend, lol.

i love having this new fridge

This fridge is beautiful, spacious and practical. The only dislike I have is that it does not have a drain for the water and ice dispenser. It only had a little indention where the water builds up. but that is is my only complaint thus far.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

ALL OK except LCD display control

I bought this Samsung refrigerator last week and LCD touch screen display was not responding(responds after many tries once in a while if you really pressed hard). I had to call Sears and get it replaced with a new one. Sears without any hesitation replaced it and gave me a new one. I do find similar LCD issues with the new refrigerator(but much better than earlier one). I went to Sears show room and tried the LCD touch panel and it works like a champion. I talked to one of the associate and he said it could be the batch which may have the problem but refrigerator by itself is good. Another issue that might bother you sound it makes while making ice and water drip to the floor after you collect water from water dispenser since there is no hold support and water will directly go to floor if you don't collect all the water in the glass. Other than these two issues, I am happy with it. I am waiting for its LCD tocuh screen performance before I call sears again.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Don't buy this piece of junk

This is by far the worst refrigerator we have ever purchased. 2 things needed repaired on it within 8 months of purchase - covered by warranty. Six months later, one of the items is in need of repair again. Today the water dispenser quit working, but water is getting to the ice maker, so it is not a water flow issue. We refuse to spend any more money on this pile of junk. This refrigerator is less than 2 years old and is already ready for the dump. DON'T BUY THIS PILE OF JUNK!

We really like this refrigerator

We bought this Samsung refrigerator seven weeks ago. It works great. It had to fit between our cabinets so it is a quarter inch wider and same height as the 16 year old refrigerator that it replace. We got an unexpected bonus in that it is about 3 or 4 inches deeper than our old one. This sounds small but it now holds three one-gallon milk jugs in depth. We read other reviews that mentioned poor lighting. The LED lighting works fine for us. While we have only had it for seven weeks, we are very pleased with it. Noise levels are reasonable and the water and ice dispensers work fine.

I would recommend this product to a friend.
