My complaint though is that at 1.5 years, we've already had a problem where we started to get water leaking into the freezer area. Of course this is after the 1 year warranty. We had to pay a repair person $125 to come out and spend 10 minutes clipping a factory problem tube.
Why is it that manufacturers, like Kitchenaid, really don't stand by their work or have good quality products beyond 1 year for basic repairs? I think it's really a downfall of overseas manufacturing.We have a relatively small kitchen and this model fits with about 5" of horizontal space to spare in the small nook that it fits into, while the french doors make access easier. Despite it's relatively compact dimensions, it's quite capacious. My wife and I have never filled the fridge area more than half way.
One feature that was important to us is the integrated water filter for the ice maker and interior filtered water dispenser. This one integrates a large plastic bottle of water in the fridge compartment behind the crisper drawers, ensuring that lots of cold water is available. It also has a filter life indicator that apparently measures actual water volume rather than just time. The owner's manual states, "The filter monitor system measures the amount of water that passes through the filter and alerts you to replace the filter." Although, it also says to replace the filter at least every 6 months. This model uses the Maytag UKF8001 PUR Refrigerator Water Filter. KitchenAid is an upmarket brand of Whirlpool, which also owns Maytag.
I like that it has digital controls and numeric temperature readout, so, for example, instead of setting the "coldness" to "3," I can set the temperature to 38°F. Plus, it tells me what the current temperature in the refrigerator and freezer compartments are at any given time. There is also a door alarm that beeps if you leave the door open for 5 minutes or more, and a temperature alarm that beeps and flashes the maximum temperature reached if the temperature in either compartment rises outside of the normal operating temperature range for an hour or more. The temperature alarm actually works following a power outage too, displaying the maximum temperature reached during the power outage once power is restored. There is a "Max Cool" button to more rapidly lower the fridge temperature. It's meant to be used when adding a large number of items to the fridge, or when adding warm items. I haven't had a need to use it yet. And there is a "Max Ice" button that more rapidly makes ice. I haven't had a need to use that either. It seems to me like this fridge has three sound levels--silent, fan running, and compressor+fan running. We like the fact that the refrigerator is magnetic despite being stainless steel, and the fact that it's assembled in the USA.
So far the only draw backs that I find are: The center door seal panel (mounted on the smaller of the two fridge doors) collects moisture even in the relatively low humidity of Southern California. There is a "Humidity Control" button that activates an integrated heater to prevent moisture build-up, and it works effectively. Unfortunately, that means the fridge uses more power. Also, the full-width deli drawer can be accessed by lifting the cover if only the smaller of the two doors is open. But if only the larger of the two doors is open, the deli drawer cover is blocked by the center door seal, so it will not lift. And finally, it might have been nice for the water dispenser button to be located below the dispenser nozzle instead of above it, as this arrangement means you can't just push a cup into the button to dispense water, but must instead use one hand to hold the cup and the other to push the button. Also, you have to remember to hold the cup there a second or so after you release the cup as the dispenser drips one or two drops after the button is released.
Overall, though, we've been very pleased with this unit.
[Edit 7/10/12]
I've recently noticed that the deli tray lid is not actually blocked by the magnetic center strip. It can actually be opened when only the right side door is open, but it requires some extra effort and the lid will rub against the door frame. This is because the cutout that serves as the handle for the deli draw lid is in the center of the drawer, and the door frame for the larger right hand door is lined up with it and so the lid opens without resistance when the right hand door is closed. But the left hand door frame is not lined up with the cutout, so the lid rubs against it when opening. Overall, we're still really pleased with this fridge.

In the past I have always purchased the brand name Samsung water filters. 2 years ago I moved to Tucson after living in Denver for the past 20 years. The water in Denver is delicious right out of the faucet. Here in Tucson, not so much! I've noticed since living here that the ice cubes from the fridge did not taste good and naturally I felt that it made my iced beverages taste not so good as a result. So this time when I replaced the filter I decided to try a different filter. What a difference! The ice cubes taste much better than before and the price was less than the name brand filter.This is a great, cheaper alternative to the Samsung water filter.It arrived quickly and took a couple of seconds to install.Great price and the drinking water never tasted better you have a customer for life. Ez to install may my day and all most half the price of the OEMThis is a generic version of Samsung's replacement filter. It works, but it doesn't fit the slot completely the way the Samsung brand does. I will buy the Samsung brand of filter in the future.

This is the exact replacement at a great price!Why pay $100 + when this is probably the exact same board?Matched exactly to the original failed board.This is just a simple PCB with a couple of chips, so should be a lot cheaper. That said, it is exactly the part you need if your ice level sensor is malfunctioning. Easy installation, it's been working fine in my freezer for months and months now.

No temperature control. The unit has two factory temp settings one for day and one for night and that's it.
When in day mode the fan of the unit runs constantly, which contributes to the loudness & noise.
The night mode would be fine for us even during the day, especially as in night mode the fan does not run and the compressor would still will maintain the preset night temp. However once you open one of the doors during night mode the unit switches to day mode again.
All in all I am not entirely satisfied, but I could not find an alternative unit. It would be nice to have a unit, which would allow to adjust or override the preset factory settings & modes. At this stage the unit operates at the mercy of the factory presets...

It's been working fine and will serve as my beer fridge, hopefully for a long time.I was disappointed! the red did not match my other red nostalgia electric microwave and toaster oven products that I own,the matching color is why I paid the $250 for it!, as a regular 3.1 fridge is about $100-130 and I'm not happy with the awful flimsy cheap chrome plastic handles on it that will certainly snap off like a fresh carrot in the not too distant future,I am pretty sure thats why Walmart has stopped selling em too many complaints and returns? sorry guys a very high price just for a "red" (more like a pink)finish.FC

I was searching for a retro refrigerator for my '61 Shasta trailer that I'm fixing up for "glamping". When I took this frig out of the box I was completely dismayed to find it's plastic. I wanted to have all of my appliances powder-coated to match but I couldn't do it with this unti so I sent it back. The red isn't the deep, beautiful shade that it appears in the photos, it's a bright tomato red and the "chrome" pieces are unattractive. They could've done so much better with this retro-frig idea. Prepare to be disappointed.

Love this retro mini frig!The separate freezer compartment is very big and great that it has its own door keeps the area much colder than other mini frig freezer compartments.The refrigerator part even has a veggie/fruit crisper drawer! It is very large (for a mini frig) inside and has plenty of storage room.The outside of it is very retro and adorable! It matches the Retro Miicrowave Nostalgia Electrics RMO-400BLK Retro Series .9 CF Microwave Oven, Black perfectly!Very fun for a little kitchenette area with flair!The fridge was not anywhere close to the red color on display! I have a closet in my movie room that is full of Nostalgia products that are candy apple red. This fridge is almost pink and does not match at all!
