Hello all, My wife and I ordered a Maytag Ice2O FD fridge a month or so ago (for a very good price), but were never really thrilled with how the fridge looked - don't like the appearance of the ice/water dispenser. What we did like was the freezer drawers. We loved that the drawers are not wire baskets, and that they both come out when the freezer is opened. After hearing of many problems with the circuit boards on the Ice2O, we diceided to look into other brands. As our other appliances will be mostly GE, we were looking at some GE FD fridges. The PFSS6PKWSS seemed to be the best of the bunch, including the new models with 2 separate freezer drawers. We noticed that on some of the fridges, the deli drawer smacks right into the french doors if the doors are not completely open (which we will not be able to do due to a wall on one side of the fridge). The PFSS6PKWSS has a deli drawer that opens up with the french doors open 90 degrees, but my wife was upset that the shelves did not pull forward like on the Ice2O. We knew that Samsung makes the PFSS6PKWSS for GE, and found the Samsung RF267AARS at a Best Buy to look at. We verified that the interiors are exactly the same, except for clear plastic bins on the french doors (they are white on the GE). After pretty much deciding to stick with the Ice2O because of the pull-out shelves, we happened to tug on one of the Samsung fridge shelves and voila! It slid forward, a few inches farther than the Ice2O shelves even! I think we have decided to go ahead and cancel our Ice2O order, and go with the Samsung RF267AARS. So, you Samsung owners out there, how have the fridges been working, how quiet are they, and do you had any complaints about them? Thanks for any replies.

We have a Kenmore Elite badged Samsung fridge and love it. We needed a CD model, and at the time they didn't make the FD in CD so ours is a SxS. My grandparents have the FD full depth Samsung fridge with the dual freezer drawers. We have had 0 problems with our fridges and are very pleased with our purchase. Remember as you're reading reviews, that usually more people take the time to write negative reviews of products than people who are happy with their purchase. It's a way venting their frustration. Not to say that people who are happy with their purchase don't post reviews, just that unhappy people are more likely to post them. I would keep that in mind as you're reading reviews online. I did a little research for you on the KA FD freezer drawers. It looks like they do offer the solid freezer drawers on the following model that includes your other specs. However, you lose some space as it's 19.6cuft vs the 24.8cuft you listed above (it's 30" wide vs. 36" wide). KitchenAid Architect Series II KFFS20EY These two models offer mats in the bottom of the wire freezer baskets- KitchenAid Proline Series KFCP22EXMP KitchenAid Architect Series II KFCS22EVMS How important is the water dispenser to you? If you can live without it, you may want to consider this FD fridge from LG: LG LFC25765 So it sounds like your choices are: - Go with Samsung and get everything you want. On the off chance you need a repair you may have a delay. -Go with a KA model with wire shelves in the freezer -Go with the smaller KA fridge to get the solid shelves in the freezer, but sacrifice storage space -Go with a KA model with in the door ice/water to get the solid freezer shelves without having to sacrifice space -Go with a fridge like the LG to get the solid freezer shelves, but sacrifice the internal water dispenser Hope this helps!

Is it the model with the ice maker in the refrigerator or in the freezer? I have the ice maker in fridge model and my only complaint is that the ice maker takes up a lot of room inside the fridge. I knew that going in but found a great deal during a pre Black Friday sale 3 years ago so I bought it despite that fact. There is only me and dh so storage for us is generally not an issue. Also occasionally the ice jams inside the dispenser. That has only happened maybe 3 times. Other then those complaints I have been very happy with it. I don't find stainless hard to keep clean a quick wipe with vinegar/water usually does the trick. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Fischer &Paykel has water only dispenser in the door with an ice maker in the freezer. If I'm not mistaken, they only make counter depth.
