Overall I am happy with this purchase, everyone who sees it is impressed. It really is a very nice fridge. Unfortunately it makes a lot of noise making ice and maintaining itself (I know that is worded funny). I think almost everyone is used to the sound of tan Ice maker dropping ice, but this thing will make a load bang about 5 minutes after it drops the ice. It also likes to make an odd sound, like a groan when it opens and closes a check valve (I found several others who have complained of the same sounds, only to find out they are "normal operating" sounds).
