Although it cools very well, it is not as "user friendly" as the same size, approximately 35 years old, GE unit that I had until I got this one. Primarily, my complaint has to do with the internal shelf arrangement, including the door shelves. The cabinet is so deep that I nearly have to do deep knee-bends to reach any items in the fresh food area that are not at the very front of their shelves. This is because the depth of the door shelves is such as to make the cabinet shelves be located awkwardly far into the cabinet. Very unhandy for an 82 y.o. guy like me, or a 79 y.o. person such as my wife! My impression is that there is a little less USABLE shelf space than there was in the old one. If I had it to do over, I would opt to have the old unit repaired. BTW, the footprint of this unit is about two inches wider and two inches deeper than my prior 21 cu. ft. top freezer GE box.

It does cool very well, though, even in this God-awful south Alabama heat.
