Product review (4 stars): I would buy this again
This is my second experience with a french door refrigerator. I like this much more than the comparable Whirlpool. 1. This GE you can open and close either side of the french doors independently of the other side and no worries of accidentally snapping off the seal that bridges the two doors. 2. the full width crisper drawer is easier to open and access the contents as it doesn't have a cover that pops up. For some reason that cover always annoyed me. 3. The lighting is brighter and color temperature makes refrigerator contents look more appetizing. 4. The freezer baskets are solid (not wire grid) and the top basket comes out easily for cleanup of spills/crumbs. I do prefer a side-by-side freezer better for easy access to contents and laying trays flat for freezing, as well as easier door opening. The bottom freezer door is heavy to open and I find myself wanting to rest my elbows on the freezer door top when I'm looking for stuff in the bottom basket. However the french door refrigerator compartment is way better than a side-by-side at keeping foods on all the shelves an even temperature. Also, if you are purchasing this refrigerator for a home with roommates or airbnb guests the french doors can be great so one person uses the left side and one the right side. I gave this 4 instead of 5 stars because of my issues with the freezer. I have had this refrigerator for just a few weeks so we'll have to see how I adjust to the freezer over time. As of right now I would buy this again as the positives outweigh the negatives
