A new Whirlpool refrigerator was delivered on 12/30/2017. Freezer hasn't been working from day one. Icicles form inside and on the door. Food is covered in frost and those in back are encased in a block of ice. Service has come out numerous times, but the problem persists. On different occasions, he worked on the gasket, changed the fan, and finally changed the door. Nothing has helped. He also came out to look at the freezer several more times and couldn't do anything. Factory Rep (Techline) told the serviceman that nothing is wrong with the unit and that the refrigerator would work if my house is air-conditioned. In Hawaii, not many homes are air-conditioned, but other refrigerators work well. I don't live in a grass shack. The refrigerator is in my kitchen, not my garage. The Whirlpool guide says that the refrigerator is "intended for use in temperatures ranging from 55-110 degrees." The temperature in my home typically ranges from 65-85 degrees, depending on the season. This past month it was 65 degrees! I'm told that Whirlpool won't replace this refrigerator because Techline said there is nothing wrong with this unit. Those words also ended my warranty. Yesterday, water was dripping from the ceiling and door of the freezer yesterday. Last night, I realized that the food in front was thawing (the food in the back half is ok because it's sealed in ice) and the refrigerator section has also stopped cooling. Called service today and they referred me to Whirlpool Service because they've done everything they can. But Techline drove the final nail in my coffin. Whirlpool Service told me they couldn’t help me also because of the Techline decision. If this Techline is making these decisions for them, I will stay away from ALL Whirlpool products from now on. So today I'm shopping for a new refrigerator because I need a refrigerator IMMEDIATELY. You can be sure it won't be a Whirlpool!!

This is a very good refrigerator for the price. We have had side-by-side and bottom freezer refrigerator models and we prefer the freezer on top. It is the most efficient for space if you don't need water and ice in the door. The two things we do not like is the bottom door shelf piece fall off because it doesn't fit well. Also the shelves seem to flex a lot. We limit the amount we put on the shelves because they look like they will break. We got an ice maker for our refrigerator and it was easy to install.

Pleas give me a refund for this machine so that I can buy a new one. It is very bad. Door is being replaced because it does not fit. I am told that I can just replace the whole thing because I didn't report the problem within 48 hours. Nonsense.

This is a no frills fridge but has great space inside. I would have loved it to offer a water dispenser inside the door, that should be standard. The ice maker makes great ice, but is VERY loud. The shelves are setup pretty good, but the bottom one on the inside of the door is so low it is really not functional. I am not a fan of the 1 control for both the freezer and fridge with only 3 settings.

I bought the refrig. about 6 weeks ago. Had ice build-up in the freezer compartment. The gasket around the freezer door was warped and did make a proper seal. Repairman heated the gasket with a hair dryer and there seems to be a good seal now. There still is frost building up in the freezer compartment. To make a long story short we have not been able to use the appliance properly since it has arrived. We are hesitant to put frozen foods in the freezer. We are constantly checking the freezer for ice build-up. We would like to have this appliance replaced with another one. The refrig. itself is nice and roomy, and would be fine if not for the freezer problem.
