I had a high-end Whirlpool fridge that the compressor died on after only 6 years. It had all kinds of bells and whistles, which only gave me headaches with repairs. Once it finally became too expensive to repair, I wanted something that would hold up better. This refrigerator has exceeded expectations. The ice maker in particular is much more robust. If I had any concerns, the right door is a bit difficult to close, but the alarm will tell you if it isn't closed all the way and once you get used to it, it's not a big deal.
