First the water filter would not fit.  It poured water all over the refrigerator and our floor.  The it started making a horrible noise.  Sounded as if it was going to go out on us and we had only had it two days.  Of course, the retailer does not make it good.  You have to go to the GE service people even if you have not had the appliance more than two days.  What a disappointment.
