On May 18, our GE refrigerator has stopped working. I mean it didn't completely stopped but it was messing up our veggies and fruits, they got frozen then the food in the freezer were not freezing anymore. We had it for nine years. We bought a set of GE appliance in 2006 at Lowe's which includes the refrigerator, oven, dishwasher, and microwave. The first one that stopped working was the microwave, then the refrigerator. The dishwasher is having a little travel now too so I am expecting it to stop working as well even though I seldom use it.
On May 19th, we went to Sears and looked for some options. We didn't find one that we like there so we proceeded to Lowe's. There we found this three door Samsung with french doors and a freezer at the bottom. Anyway here are the side doors. I like it that the compartments have different sizes and height.
The water filter is in the middle of the vegetable and fruit drawers/compartments. I love that you can adjust the humidity control of each drawer.
There is a foldable shelf on the right side to put tall stuff like milk, wine, and other beverages.
It has a big freezer drawer bin with a divider in the middle.
This is an auto pull drawer on top of the freezer drawer where you can put your frozen stuff and on the left side is the ice bucket. The ice maker is located on top of the refrigerator.
The only problem I have with this fridge is the fact that the water is not coming out. I tried to follow the direction on the manual but still nothing is happening. Even though we don't really use water from the fridge, I still want it to work out.
So here's our new refrigerator that cost almost half of what we paid for when we bought the whole kitchen appliances 9 years ago. Below is the full details of its feature.

The only downside of buying at Lowe's is their customer services isn't that great. When you go to the store, no one wants to help you really. You are on your own when you are shopping there. I mean, when you are shopping for this kind of merchandise, you expect that someone would offer to help you as they have the expertise of what they sell. We love the customer service at Sears but unfortunately, they don't have what we were looking for.
This was on sale for $1,998 but with hubby's 10% discount as a veteran, it went down to $1,798.20 plus $107.89 tax. So we ended up paying for $1,906.09. I am just glad that the delivery was free. NOT sponsored.
