Ratings & Reviews for Cafe Counter-Depth 23.1-cu ft 3 -Door 36-in Wide French Door Refrigerator with Ice Maker ( Matte White with Brushed Bronze Handles ) ENERGY STAR Certified

Worst product ever!!

Worst fridge ever i lost so my food, had to replace freezer seal 2x and food thaws and fridge gets cold after 6 years going in trash!! So disappointed

Compressor died within 9 weeks of purchase

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Chose this for the service network of GE appliance but everything was slow from getting parts to updating my repairs status. We are now on the second compressor which still does not work. Am trying to contact Bodewell but can only do so online. Did not follow up after the repair to see if it took which it didn’t. Very disappointed. Will request w new unit and hopefully we just had a lemon and can move on.

Could use design improvement on water dispenser

This review doesn’t need this much detail. Keep it simple

Very Nice

We love the look and storage capacity for smaller refrigerator. The only minor issue is that the ice maker is relatively slow to replenish ice and the ice container is not very large so running out quickly is a real possibility.

Most Expensive/Worst Refrigerator Ever....

There's a part of me that's so sad seeing so many people love this fridge. I loved it too, until it started failing. We bought it in 2018, and almost immediately started having trouble with it. The water hose was leaking (which was an especially hard blow because it was replacing a fridge that leaked). We've paid over the years to update the warranty and have had 4 service calls in those years, only some of which were covered by the warranty. I've probably spent 800-1000$ servicing this refr...

Over rated.

Nice to look at…….beyond that would prefer another model.

Left door mechanism needs a redesign.

Unit looks and runs quietly. The only issue is the horrible design for opening the left door. Very stiff to pull open and push close as well as loud. Very annoying.

Not Recommended

Small, loud, and rolls back and forth when I pull the freezer door sometimes. This is the worst fridge I’ve owned. It’s lacking in quality. The water tastes strange even after using an authentic filter, which hasn’t been exhausted.

GE makes great fridge

I would like to see the inside to be a little deeper. I think the drawers for vegetable are too small and overall storage for leftovers and larger milk, juice containers is too small. The shelves in the drawers are wonderful and have a lot of space but for a family of 5 with 3 teenage boys, we need more overall space. Also the alarm goes off so quickly. If you need to clean or organize the fridge it seems like the alarm rings in 30 seconds.

New fridge

Overall, very pleased. Shelving a bit confusing at first.

Beautiful design

The fridge aesthetics is stunning. Truly beautiful. The cheap plastic on the interior is another story. The mark up on all refrigerators world wide by all companies must be astronomical because they truly haven't changed much in 60 years. The space inside the fridge is minimal. our old fridge/freezer held 2-3x the amount The roll out tray for our freezer came broken. They HAVE SENT 3 but the problem is the piece shows up scuffed or broken because they are too cheap to wrap the vulnerable par...

Regrettable Purchase

I find the water spigot of special concern. It is difficult to push and only works if it is pushed on the right side of the rubber button, cuts off all the time, acts like it might have a twisted tube in that the flow is minimal. The doors are a problem too: hard to close,

Terrible quality, doors hard to close

Terrible product. Poor quality and many annoyances, the worst being that the doors are difficult to close. Normally you just gently push a refrigerator door and it auto closes, but this fridge requires a ton of force to close the doors. It is annoying beyond belief.

Fridge not up to Cafe Series standards.

I bought the Cafe Series fridge, stove and dishwasher. Love the dishwasher and stove, hate the fridge. It has low capacity. The fridge doors don’t open all the way, to 180°. They are hard to pull and you must open both doors to take out anything not on the door ahelves. The temp control (I have a thermometer) keeps it at 31°, no matter the setting. The freezer is small.

Manufacturing defects

Poor quality construction, unit has exposed refrigerator upper door hinges. Freezer door track wheel is just barely on it's track. Unacceptable for a high end appliance.

Could be Better

Looks great and runs fine. However, It vibrates and makes loud noises. It vibrates that it causes glassware in the fridge to make noise. It also makes loud noises when cooling and pumping water.

Issues with temperatures

Poor quality for Price

Creates so much condensation that food goes bad quickly. Have owned GE profile appliances was thinking the quality would be equal of superior, I was incorrect. Very expensive for the poor quality

A nice addition to the kitchen

Great capacity for a counter depth. Great storage except that bottom drawer is not deep enough for a wine bottle to lie flat since they put much larger bins on the door. The doors are somewhat hard to close and will not close on their own even with a fairly hard push. Must manually push on the door to close it.
