What Customers Are Saying

The refrigerator has a spacious interior with adjustable shelving and specialized storage compartments. It features an elegant, modern design with bright LED lighting and easy-to-use features. However, there are frequent issues with the ice maker, temperature control problems, and noisy operation. Many customers also report reliability concerns, with the refrigerator breaking down within the first few years. Overall, while the product has some positive attributes, the consistent quality and reliability issues make it difficult to recommend.

Works fine, but we don't love the layout

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We chose this counter depth model to gain more kitchen space in our remodel. In Kitchenaid, it was either this one or a 20 cubic foot model. While it claims 24' of space, it feels like much less than the 25' that we gave up with our old standard depth unit. The shelves have no adjustability up and down. Gallon storage is limited to the right door or the third shelf (if you retract the second shelf to make clearance for it). We would have lik...

Refrigerator went out after less than 3 months.

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Refrigerator went out in less than 3 months. Two technicians have come out as part of my warranty and it still isn’t fixed. Now we won’t have food to get my family though the winter storm this weekend. Very disappointed.

Efficient lay out

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had to replace our 12yo kitchen aid - this one has more cu ft despite being same size. Only 4 stars because water dispenses warm-room temp water, a the ice dispensers ice gets everywhere - ice machine is LOUD. Fridge stays cold tho- even tho its cabinet depth so that part is amazing

Terrible refrigerator

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After 9 months the compressor failed and it has a leak. The unit is not able to repaired. To add insult to injury, it died a couple of days before Christmas and ruined a substantial amount of food.

Absolute Failure of a “Premium” Brand

Would Not Recommend

KitchenAid Refrigerator/Freezer – Absolute Failure of a “Premium” Brand This KitchenAid refrigerator is a complete disaster. We purchased it in June 2024, and within SIX MONTHS it stopped working. We were told it was a one-time issue. That was a lie. Now, barely two years after purchase, the freezer no longer freezes and the ice maker is dead. A refrigerator that cannot freeze or make ice is useless. This is not wear and tear — this is defective manufacturing. Even worse is KitchenAid/Whirlpo...

Tape Residue on refrigerator Ceiling.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love everything on the refrigerator except there was nylon tape on the ceiling of the refrigerator. When I pulled it off, it left streaks of glue and nylon strings and now is very unsightly. I looked up all the methods of removing the residue and nothing seems to work.

Ice maker on door does not work well

Would Not Recommend

Ice maker keeps thawing so it then hardens into a solid block. Impossible to use ice because of this design flaw

Wonderful Refrigerator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have our Kitchen Aid Fridge about a month a couldn’t be any happier. Beautifully made, runs quiet, great ice dispenser and plenty room inside for a counter model. We really love the handles which do not show any smudges.

Love the features

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this in early November. Happy with compactness and how it fits in the kitchen. Appreciate the self closing drawers. Fruit and Vegetable drawers keep food fresh. Ice cubes maker is producing good amount. Wish the shelves were adjustable. Limited space to put tall groceries in like milk, creamer, etc. can only go in one side of refrigerator door or half to close one shelf halfway which makes space behind inaccessible. Some careful packing ...

Ice maker never has worked

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased for new build home and installed by appliance company before I moved in. Ice maker has never worked.

Seomewhat disappointed

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Two issues that make me sorry that we purchased this model: 1) when you depress the water dispenser to fill a glass and then pull the glass away, water drips on the floor. It can be compensated for by leaving the glass under the spout for a split second, but that shouldn't be necessary. We know to do this, but when guests come to the house they assume it works like a normal water dispenser and I'm constantly wiping up water on the floor. . ...

Super Loud Ice maker

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had this refrigerator for over a month now. The compressor for the in-door ice maker is extremely loud. It sounds like there is a semi-truck idling in our kitchen. Our guests at our holiday parties could not believe it was so loud.

Disappointed with KitchenAid Refrigerator and Ongo

Would Not Recommend

We purchased a KitchenAid refrigerator in the Winter of 2023 from Lowe’s, along with both the manufacturer warranty and an extended protection plan through Lowes for added peace of mind. Unfortunately, within the first year of ownership, we began experiencing multiple issues: a loud fan, food in the refrigerator section freezing, and the freezer not maintaining a consistent temperature, causing food to thaw and refreeze. We worked with the manufacturer during the first year to resolve the fan is...
