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.

I would just like to comment even though this is an older thread. French door refrigerators with in-the-door ice dispensers are known to have problems. This is due to the ice maker being located in the refrigerator area rather than the freezer area. All brands have problems. We had to replace our Samsung french door refrigerator after two years because of recurrent problems with ice buildup around the ice maker making it unusable. Samsung repairmen came out several times, the last time even replacing the entire ice maker but to no avail. After much research I learned that these all have problems despite the brand and although not everyone who has a French door refrigerator with an in-the-door ice dispenser will have problems, these types of refrigerators have an inordinate amount of issues necessitating repair or replacement. We finally bought a French door refrigerator with the ice maker in the bottom and have no problems.

You might get better responses if you posted this in a more appropriate forum, like "Appliances."

I am also looking. French door refrigerator, preferably two drawers at the bottom for flex/freezer. 36" width, standard depth, and upto 72" height. I have a KA side by side and the icemaker and water quit years ago. I dont want that anymore, I do not care for an ice maker and cold water dispenser, either inside or outside. I fill a steel jug for cold water and a few ice cube trays, and that works well for me. I dont mind the fancy stuff but I rarely change the temp, know what's in my fridge, and can look up the calendar on my phone...so don't find the cameras and screens on the doors useful for me. The idea of the middle drawer having a different temp than the refrigerator or freezer appeals to me. Humidity control also seemed interesting on some models, however, I noticed the crisper drawers weren't really sealed properly, so not sure If there really is any control. I like the idea of two compressors, two evaporator, but for just two people, seems overkill. I've been to Lowes, BB, HD, and after some time, they have all started looking the same to me. Not partial to any manufacturer or retailer, though try to find a local small business with reasonable price. Appreciate any recommendations for something simple and reliable.
