We have had an absolute NIGHTMARE experience with a F&P flat front, counter depth, stainless fridge. If it wasn’t so infuriating, it would be funny, especially if it wasn’t happening to you. it started making very strange noises a week before the 2 year warrantee expired. Sounded just like a car revving it’s engine. This was over 2 years ago now and it still isn’t fixed. This company does not stand behind their product, period. Their technician has made us feel like we were insane for thinking this wasn’t a normal sound. Lying to our faces about the most basic of issues and previous visits. Cancelled appointments, lost paperwork, wrong parts ordered, etc etc etc. it was been a complete farce of after sale customer service and support. We have every e-mail and paper document, countless video and audio files of this fridge making these crazy sounds and yet...... here we are.....just today..... the 3rd cancelled appointment this month alone by the local F&P service rep...... yep, you guessed it...... after waiting at home since 7am this morning for the scheduled service. Do NOT buy this brand. It’s simply not worth the incredible hassel you will face if anything breaks.... with, or without a warrantee.

I' all add to my earlier post. My prior refrigerator was a 20cft sxs. I think the F&P holds as much. I am a one household person. But I do cook alot and have a alot of refrigerator needs: the usual dairy, eggs, cold cuts and cheese as well as produce, yogurt, bread etc. The capacity for its stated size (17.6 cft) is large. The shelves are wide although shallow. A 12 pack of soda must be placed horizontally to fit; it will not fit in lengthwise. the F&P lacks some features we Americans deem necessary such as pullout shelsves. You wouldn't really need them due to the depth. There seems to sufficient storage on the door for ketchup, mustard,large bottles, pickles and the like. The door has an egg bin and two covered shelves. I use these for cheese, butter and deli stuff. The fridge does not have a separate deli drawer. It does have a fruit bin and a veggie bin which have sliders to adjust the moisture control. IMHO, the refrigerator portion holds more than it would appear to! THe freezer does not have a light. It is conveniently divided into 3 sections. So far this storage has been fine for me. WHether or not it would fit your family needs depends on how often you shop and what you have to refrigerate. I find it more than adequate. I love it's design and its counterdepth. I originally wanted a FD but don't have room for a counter depth FD. I am quite pleased with the F&P. I like the water dispenser. This control lets you select the amount of water and the temp of the fridge and the freezer. PJS

isnet these messages to fp. no answer yet. anyone have any answers? The integrated 36” wide refrigerators (72” and 80”h) show same interior capacity (5.1/11.7) on your website and on others. Is this a mistake? 30” shows same as 36” which must be wrong? When I check for local service near me (zip code 10021), your site shows Canada. Is there no local service in case something breaks? https://www.fisherpaykel.com/ca/support/doLocateServicer/

I see this conversation/question has lingered for awhile. I just purchased FP white appliances for a kitchen redo and took the plastic piece that covers the hinge on top of the refrigerator (RF201ADW5) to Benjamin Moore, Sherwin Williams and Home Depot to have them match the paint color for my cabinets. The hinge cover was the only piece available to remove. Although it is a different material from what the rest of the refrigerator, the color looks the same. It was a bit surprising to see the colors that turned up as matches in the BM line: Patriotic White (2135-70), Lily White (2128-70), Palest Pistashio (2122-60), Sea Foam 2123-60), and Fanfare (874). Be forewarned, the BM paint store told me the reflective quality of the hinge cover would alter the analysis results. Nevertheless, I believe the matches are quite close. I was less inclined to consider the colors that were noticeably green tinged (Palest Pistachio, Patriotic White and Sea Foam). I preferred the color matches obtained at Sherwin Williams. Their equipment was more sophisticated than BM's. They actually came up with a formula. I was told that formula would/could change with each analysis. They didn't specficially say that was due to the reflective traits of the sample piece. They said it was normal for any sample being tested. The first analysis yielded a formula of 1 B1 Blue colorant and 1 R3- Magenta colorant. The second analysis yielded 1 B1-Black colorant, 1 G2-New Green colorant and 1 R3-Magenta colorant. I had them mix a quart of the second color formula using their Emerald Urethane Enamel paint in the satin finish. (Not sure why I decided to try the one with green despite rejecting the BM green tinged colors.) I also visually matched the sample piece from the refrigerator to SW paint chips. I thought Ice Cube (SW 6252), Site White (SW 7070) and Rock Candy (SW 6231) were all reasonable matches and far superior to the BM options. Finally, I gave Home Depot a try. Their analysis was limited like Home Depot. I was'nt interested in getting a sample mixed so did a visual match using their paint chips. Etched Glass (MQ3-27) and Drizzle (PPU26-14) in their Behr paint line looked like good options. I think Drizzle is quite an extraordinary match. I just feel less inclined to use Behr paint. But I did get an 8 oz. sample to try. The other experiment I plan to do is to view the matched colors under different light conditions. I have LED light bulbs that enable you to switch between three different warmth/coolness tones. I have yet to try this out on the color matches I obtained today. But I did look at a number of different BM white paint chips I had earlier obtained, switching between 2700K, 3000K and 4000K and it was interesting to see how it changed the colors. I preferred how all of the whites looked under the 2700K (warmer) light. I know matching the FP white refrigerator means I will be using a cooler white than I might ordinarily be attracted to but I think carefully choosing light bulbs will help to add some warmth. Also, the wood floor will add warmth as well as some other wood touches such as counter stools. Sorry for the length of this!
