Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

The drawers break

3/6/2017

I have had this fridge for 5 years and had to replace all of the drawers multiple times because they break. We are not rough on our fridge and have no children. I have spent $600 on repairing drawers in the last 5 years. Now the ice motor is dead. They sure don't make things like they use to.

The best part is when you open the door

Tskids 11/19/2013

Replaced a much larger refrigerator with this one. The design is very good, the simple design change of moving the ice maker to the door is really nice, that space is difficult to use anyway. The LED lighting is spectacular. Simple feature that is a nice touch. I was disappointed that the filter refill program that automatically sends water filters periodically stopped carrying filter 1 that this product uses.

A perfect fit!

10/29/2013

When shopping for a new refrigerator, we had a specific size space to fill. I was initially shopping another brand, but this model was the only one that was short enough to fit the space, and had all of our desired features. As it turns out, we made a great choice with this model, as well as the other matching appliances we bought.The LED lighting is outstanding. The door-mounted ice unit works very well, but tends to be a bit noisy. The inside space is well organized, and the water filter just notified us to "order filter" (which I have) after about 5 months, which is another great feature. Overall, we're very happy with the looks and functionality of this fridge!

Yami 10/28/2013

I really do Hate the fact that it doesn't automatically pour the water into cup...you have to hold the cup against the "thing" (not sure what its called) the entire time!! Also every now and then it makes a weird noise especially at nighttime that'll last only a couple minutes.

mayflower2 7/24/2013

We chose this Whirlpool refrigerator because we liked the side by side features, the roominess & the ice maker in the door. The ice maker messed up 4 days after we got it. Fortunately we had bought an extended warranty which covered the repair costs. We have had no more problems & are enjoying our purchase. I also bought a stove, dishwasher & microwave, all of which have performed flawlessly.

Vincenzo 5/28/2013

This is a great looking unit with all the features I was looking for. Unfortunately it hasn't quite lived up to my expectations for a product in the Whirlpool Gold line. When it runs it is loader than our old refrigerator. When delivered the doors didn't line up properly, the installer adjusted them but after some use it appears they are out of alignment again. I've check the interior temperature with a laser thermometer and they are consistently higher than what the compartment is set at by at least 5 degrees. The water and ice have a funny taste that wasn't an issue in our old unit hooked up to the same water source. I've even replaced the brand new water filter thinking perhaps something had happened to the original one. Lastly the ice maker has been problematic. We had it serviced a few days after delivery and they replaced the ice maker and installed a heating kit for the water line. This week it stopped working again for about a day and then started working again. I'm glad we bought the service plan from Best Buy but so far this hasn't been the best experience. Definitely not what I was hoping for from Whirlpool's Gold line.

Firooz 4/3/2013

We had to buy this fridge in a haste because our old refrigerator died suddently. The people at Best Buy were very helpful and the sale price was fantastic. I love how roomy this refrigerator is. The fact that it is energy efficient is a plus and I love that the icemaker is in the door because it gives me more shelf room in the freezer. All and all I am so satisfied. We made the best decision.

Known Problems

sally1000 4/1/2013

If you know something doesn't work right, why do you still sell the product???? I now know from online reviews that the water line for ice freezes...therefore no ice! I have had the ice maker replaced and now they are going to replace the freezer door because the ice maker is not working again!!! The damper system is not right. Waiting for that to be replaced too! My fruit and vegetables freeze in the bottom of the drawers. I put towels in the bottom of the bins. It helps. I wish I had done my homework before purchasing this model.

Whirlpool for all of my rental units

Quixote71 11/25/2012

Over the years of owning and managing residential rentals I have found that Whirlpool products have weathered the harsh treatment that renters can dish out and not fail. Getting replacement parts and service through Whirlpool has been fantastic. I am a huge fan of this brand and have been continually impressed with their products!

Philo 9/28/2012

This fridge is pretty dang nice. I love it, except for the ice dispensor. When the wife is getting ice you couldn't here a plane land, but to be fair, she always gets the crushed ice, and, well, crushing ice is bound to make a little noise. Other than that it's performing flawlessly. Lighting is cool, and so is everything else. I'd recommend it to friends and family.

kshort22 9/26/2012

the features are very easy to understand and simple to work. The locking feature comes in handy when you have kids or dogs trying to get ice out of the dispenser. It has tons of space on both sides for whatever you need. The only issue we have had is the ice maker gets stuck occasionally and doesn't dispense ice, but it works itself out quickly.

LED Lighting, WOW!

9/25/2012

The LED lighting was the first surprise when we opened the door of our new refrig. The innnovations inside the unit was wonderful. We live in a development and was concerned about what the builders were suppling the homes with. We did not want a competitors units because of prior experiences and was willing to opt out and purchase on our own Whirlpool products throughout the home.

My wife is very happy with the Frig

9/20/2012

It is so nice to get a quality appliance and have it actually perform as adverised. All features function well and perform as expected. We love the Temperature monitor, quiet operation, good looks, the ice maker and the size of the ice cubes, the ice maker is compact in size but seems to keep up with our need in a family of 6. No cold spots or hot spots, Qiet operation, neat cool temp integrated lighting that actually comes on slowly. The water dispensor is fine, but a bit slow probably due to the water filtering.This frig has been a delight, and even though it has the features of an expensive luxary frig, the price was in the mid range. The stainless steel has also been fine.

Features include energy saving, ice maker in-door (no wasted freezer shelving space), LED lighting, lipped shelves, lower temperature adjustable compartment, and air and water filters.Cons would be size for my household, some noise, and a lot to clean (shelves and crevices).

Not Quiet, No Cold Water

expectedmore 3/18/2012

First half glass of dispensed water is not cold; second half glass is cold. Appears water line in refrigerator located in area where the line is not kept cold. Old GE we had did not have this problem.Refrigerator operation too noisy. Circulation fans make too much noise even after repairman replaced the freezer side fan.Ice maker in door has inadequate capacity even though it is making ice constantly. Crushed ice operation seems to be under-designed. Underpowered ice crusher gets stuck on ice cube and stops. Crushing discharge chute too large for most glasses. Crushed ice ends up on tray, front of refrigerator, and on floor.The old GE did not do this either.This refrigerator should not have been released for production until these shortcomings were corrected.Since have purchased new washer, not a Whirlpool.

In LOVE my new Whirpool Refrigerator!

teachersapplepie 2/2/2012

I still have my 20 year old Whirpool but all the shelves were breaking so we put it in the garage for extra storage. I have also researched and looked at new refrigerators for the past 6 months! This new one is fantastic I would recommend it to anyone. I had extra space to spare when doing holiday entertaining. Fast Ice was also amazing at this time of year too! Fruits and vegatables keep longer in this unit. I love the ice maker in the door it takes up less space in the large capacity freezer. Love the Led Lighting, very easy to see what you need to find in the Frig .Changing the flter is very easy too open door lift compartment slide out filter and pop new one back in. It is as easy as that!Wow another great product from Whirpool!

We really like this refrigerator. It is roomy and generally quiet. The internal layout works well. About the only complaint is that the ice maker is a little noisy when it ejects the ice. Other than that we are satisfied customers.

way better than previous refridgerator

jsvieira 10/20/2011

my husband & i purchased this refrigerator in april 2011. we have made it 6 months without any issues with the performance of the fridge/freezer. this model has amazing storage capacity and definitely keeps our food at appropriate temperatures. we love the ice/water dispenser. we ALWAYS have ice...some times too much and we end up dumping some out. my only issue with the fridge is the door handles. they are not flush to the door and when cleaning the fridge my paper towel gets caught and i have to pry it out. it's the only issue we have had with the fridge thus far. the review before us was extremely negative, it may be that we were very lucky to receive a perfect appliance. i definitely would recommend this refrigerator to anyone. we are very happy with our purchase.

Capacity and lighting are great but avoid in-door ice maker

SF0001 8/6/2011

I have owned the product one month and I regret the purchase. After having owned my previous side-by-side for nearly 13 yrs without a single issue I was convinced that Whirlpool was my only choice for a replacement when I remodeled the kitchen. I am convinced now that my old unit was the last reliable fridge I would own. In the month I have owned the unit it has only managed to produce three bins of ice. Now that I have done more research I realize I should have stayed with the basic ice and water dispenser with the analog controls for cooling. I even went to the extent to purchase an extended warranty because of my lack of faith in the the control center mounted in the door. My fear is that it will fail making the entire appliance useless and I am hazard to guess what a replacement would cost. Considering that I paid nearly twice the price for this fridge than my last one I would have expected better from the mfg.What sold me on the unit was the capacity and energy efficiency; my wife liked the lighting as well. Beyond this, there is not much that separates this model from the lower-end offerings. Other items of mention, the upper and lower shelves on the door are not interchangeable. I feel they should have provided one additional lower door shelf due to provide additional versatility. I purchased the stainless finish to match my other appliances. If you purchase this model be prepared to clean it constantly. My previous white unit did not show the fingerprints nearly as much as this one does. I have always been happy with my whirlpool appliances in the past and it is a shame this unit has tarnished my opinion.
