Alright, onto the negative aspects of the Samsung RFG298AABP refrigerator. Probably the biggest complaint from users is about the ice maker. Some say it doesn’t produce enough ice, and others say it is very loud. A few users actually had the whole thing go out on them, and had to get it replaced. I know that ice maker problems are probably the number one complaint with any brand you buy, but it’s just too bad that this model had to have these problems as well. Another thing that can get annoying is that the water dispenser tends to drip some after using it. If you hold your cup there for long enough afterward, it shouldn’t be an issue. Other than these two problems, there really isn’t a lot to complain about with the Samsung RFG298AABP - it’s a good refrigerator, overall. I’m still giving this unit a 4.3 / 5 star rating, even though you may have to deal with a couple ice maker problems. If you’re like most people, the positive assets will definitely outweigh the negative with this model.

Alright, onto the negative aspects of the Amana A2RXNMFWW refrigerator. Probably the biggest issue with this model is how loud it can get. I’ve run across a number of users who confirm this. Another thing about this unit is that the cooling vent tends to freeze whatever is nearby, so don’t keep anything too close to it you don’t want frozen. Also, I wish it came with an ice maker. You can buy one separately, but it still would have been nice to get it factory-installed. A couple other things: it has no freezer light, and it’s not Energy Star certified. Other than those couple of issues, the Amana A2RXNMFWW is a pretty decent refrigerator. It’s definitely basic, yet does a fine job at what it was meant to do. Overall, I’m giving it a 3.9 / 5 star rating.

Alright, now we’ll move onto the negative aspects of the Electrolux EI23BC56IS refrigerator. A lot of the issues with this model center around the ice maker. First off, it tends to spit ice chips all around, and onto the floor as well. Other users had problems with the ice being a little too liquid instead of solid, and also that it did not make ice fast enough. Another issue seems to be that the interior drawers are made pretty cheaply. Lastly, there are some noises that come from the ice maker and also from shutting the freezer door. Overall, the Electrolux EI23BC56IS refrigerator appears to be giving users a bit of a headache from the issues it has. With that in mind, I can only give this model a 2.9 / 5 star rating.

The Maytag MFD2562VEM refrigerator is a French door model, with 24.8 cubic ft of space. The exterior is absolutely gorgeous, with a stainless steel finish. In this review of the Maytag MFD2562VEM fridge, I’ll go over this model’s positive and negative aspects, then decide if it’s worth buying. Currently, you can purchase this model for around $1,700 - which is pretty reasonable, considering it’s size and that it’s a stainless steel unit. Here’s a quick rundown of the features found on it: electronic triple-cool system, gallon door bins, covered dairy compartment, factory-installed ice maker, gliding freezer drawer, internal water dispenser, deli drawer, and spill catcher glass shelves. There are a number of great features found on this refrigerator, but not a lot you wouldn’t expect from a higher-end model.

OK, onto the negative aspects of the Maytag MFD2562VEM refrigerator. One of the main complaints is with the deli drawer being poorly constructed. The top of the drawer tends to pop off rather easily. Another thing that’s kind of pain is that the water dispenser and the ice are inside. While I’m glad this model at least has both of those features, I wish they could have put it on the exterior of the door. A couple of users actually had their units break down on them after a few years of usage. While this is something to consider before you buy, I think it was more of a fluke than anything. Unfortunately, I think there are some elements of the Maytag MFD2562VEM refrigerator that are poorly designed or just cheaply made. Until those issues get addressed, I can only give this model a 3.8 / 5 star rating.

The Frigidaire FRT18IL6JB refrigerator is a small top freezer model, which has just 18.2 cubic ft of space. The all-black exterior gives it a pretty classy look. In this review of the Frigidaire FRT18IL6JB fridge, I’ll go over this model’s strengths and weaknesses, then decide if it’s worth buying. Currently, this unit is selling for around $475, which is actually a decent price for this size range. Here’s a rundown of features found on this model: two humidity controlled crispers, spill-safe glass shelves, adjustable door bins with gallon storage, Never Clean condenser, fixed freezer door bins, factory installed ice maker, and this refrigerator is also Energy Star qualified. For a unit of this size and price, this is actually a fair amount of features.

OK, onto the negative aspects of the Frigidaire FRT18IL6JB refrigerator. One problem that seems to be common amongst users is that this model tends to be noisy. Another issue is that the freezer is very small. One of the main reasons it feels so small is because of the factory installed ice maker - however, I’m not sure that I would want to give that up. A few users have had the unit break down after a couple months, but I think that is more of a fluke than anything. Overall, there’s not a lot wrong with the Frigidaire FRT18IL6JB refrigerator. If they could just fix the issue with the noise, it would be a spectacular unit. As is, I can only give this model a 4 / 5 star rating, which is still very respectable.

The GE GFSS2HCYSS refrigerator is a French door model with just over 22 cubic ft of space. The exterior is a beautiful stainless steel finish. In this review of the GE GFSS2HCYSS fridge, I’ll go over this model’s strengths and weaknesses, then deciding if it’s worth the $1,350 price tag. What I really like about the exterior is the high-end details, such as: the rounded doors, hidden hinges, and contoured handles. Here’s a quick rundown of the features found on this unit: adjustable humidity-controlled crispers, snack drawer, adjustable spill proof glass shelves, super bright Reveal lighting, upfront temperature controls, factory installed ice maker, adjustable gallon door bins, and this refrigerator is also Energy Star qualified. I really like how almost everything is customizable on this model - it’s a nice touch.

OK, onto the negative aspects of the GE GFSS2HCYSS refrigerator. One thing I don’t really like is how small the freezer space seems. A lot of the cramped feeling is due to the ice maker being in there, which would be hard to give up. Another thing is that the door bins seem a little cheap - and, one user actually had them break on her. Of course, the stainless steel exterior is going to attract fingerprints, but that is very common. Other than those couple issues, I can’t think of much wrong with the GE GFSS2HCYSS refrigerator. It’s a decent buy, especially if you are in the market for a cheaper stainless steel model. I’m giving this unit a 4.3 / 5 star rating.

The Hotpoint HTJ18GCTSA refrigerator is a top freezer model, which has just 18.2 cubic ft of space. While the exterior is not true stainless steel, it still looks great. In this review of the Hotpoint HTJ18GCTSA fridge, I’ll go over the positive and negative aspects of this model, then decide if it’s worth buying. This model is quite small, so it would probably work best for single people or couples. Once you start getting into the 3-4 member family range, this unit will feel very cramped. Here’s a quick rundown of the features you’ll get with this model: can storage in the door shelf, factory-installed ice maker, clear crisper drawers, snack drawer, adjustable glass shelves, gallon door bins, and a Never Clean condenser. This refrigerator is also Energy Star compliant, so it should do a decent job at keeping your energy bills lower.

OK, onto the negative aspects of the Hotpoint HTJ18GCTSA refrigerator. Probably the main problem I have with this unit is that the freezer seems so tiny, especially with the ice maker in there. Don’t get me wrong, I love having an ice maker - however, it’s very hard to give up space for it. A couple other things I wish it had: a freezer light, adjustable door bins, a filter for the ice, humidity-controlled crispers, and spill proof shelves. I know most of these things you wouldn’t expect a cheaper model to have - so it’s not a huge loss. I think the Hotpoint HTJ18GCTSA refrigerator is a winner, as far as function goes. I do think the freezer is a little small for my liking and a couple improvements could have been added, but overall it’s a very nice little unit. I’m giving it a 4 / 5 star rating.

The Amana ABB2221WEW refrigerator is a bottom freezer model, with nearly 22 cubic ft of space. The all-white exterior is nothing too exciting, but that’s just my opinion. In this review of the Amana ABB2221WEW fridge, I’ll go over the strengths and weaknesses of this model, then decide if it’s worth the $800 price tag. First off, here’s a quick rundown of the features found on this unit: gallon door storage, two humidity-controlled crispers, a gliding freezer basket, Temp Assured freshness controls, dairy center, reversible door swing, glass shelves, and it’s also Energy Star compliant. I wouldn’t say there is anything on this refrigerator that is too unique, but it does at least cover the basics, plus a few extras. I do really like the freshness controls, they’re very easy to use and understand.

OK, onto the negative aspects of the Amana ABB2221WEW refrigerator. For one thing, it seems to be a little noisier than a lot of other units of this price and size. I also wish it had a factory-installed ice maker. On the other hand, it would probably make the freezer seem pretty cramped if one was in there. It also would have been nice to have a compartment for eggs. There isn’t a lot else to complain about with this unit, mainly because it’s a pretty basic model to begin with. Overall, I do like the Amana ABB2221WEW refrigerator - it does an admirable job at what it was designed to do. I’m giving this model a 4 / 5 star rating.

The GE GTH21SCXSS refrigerator is a top freezer model with 21 cubic ft of space. The stainless steel exterior gives this model a nice touch. In this review of the GE GTH21SCXSS fridge, I’ll go over this model’s strengths and weaknesses, then decide if it’s worth buying. First off, it’s always nice when you find a smaller unit that still has the elegance of a higher-end stainless steel model. But beyond the physical exterior, here’s a rundown of the features you’ll find on board: humidity controlled crispers, snack pan, factory-installed ice maker, adjustable and spill resistant glass shelves, gallon door storage, illuminated temperature controls, and it’s also Energy Star qualified. With a nearly $1,000 price tag, you would expect that this refrigerator have some quality features - and for the most part, it delivers on that expectation.

OK, onto the negative aspects of the GE GTH21SCXSS refrigerator. While I really enjoy having the ice maker, it can be noisy at times. It also takes up some valuable space in the freezer, and can make it feel a little cramped. Another thing I don’t like is that there is no light in the freezer. Also, I wish the door bins were adjustable. All in all, I do still like the GE GTH21SCXSS refrigerator. It’s probably a little pricey for what you get, but not unreasonable. Even with it’s issues, I’m giving it a 4.2 / 5 star rating.
