Well, I just got my fridge today.  So I cannot review it for longevity, etc.  I went with another GE fridge because the one I have in the garage (my first fridge) is over 23 years old!  I am hoping this GE will be hardy, as well.  The color - slate - is great.  It looks like it won't show all the  smudges and finger prints.  Yet, it gives our kitchen the metallic look I wanted.  Just a little darker than stainless steel.
