We are renovating the kitchen and ordered all of our appliances to have ready; the old fridge kick-off a few weeks back and we are SOOO thankful we already had the new fridge waiting. Although the kitchen isn't renovated yet, and the new fridge is still sitting in the middle of the floor(!), we LOVE it. We haven't wasted anything, or had anything go bad since we started using it. It's only been about a month, but the shallower reach-in, great lighting, and the veggie/fruit drawer have increased our efficiency in keeping food fresher, longer. It's improved the way we cook too, since it's so much easier to 'see' where everything is. The alarms are also a very smart design, especially with kids. We love it!
