Our 12-year-old fridge wouldn't maintain a safe temperature so I purchased this one because it would fit the space allowed. We like the open and easy-to-access interior. It took a while for the refrigerated side to get down to the proper temperature but has maintained it very well ever since. Also having the ice maker in the door frees up a lot of room in the freezer that was taken up in our previous unit. Overall we are quite pleased!
