A Good Everyday Refrigerator

This refrigerator is a good refrigerator. I purchased mine through a local dealer, had it delivered and installed, and it's been working just fine. Temperature has been consistent and matches the temperature on the door display.
The dual ice maker is great - even better - you can turn off the secondary ice maker and use the freezer space if you need it.
The fresh food compartment is large and adequate. Drawers glide smoothly.
It is not loud, makes normal refrigerator sounds. Mine actually is a lot quieter than the 3 yr old LG refrigerator I just sold with my last house.
MY ONLY ISSUES - Not including all the door bins - making you immediately buy necessary parts that should be included is just not right. I was not even aware all the door bins did not come with it until it was delivered. Model as shown in store had all door bins and there was no disclaimer or signage anywhere pertaining to door bins. Mine came with 3 large door bins for right door and one small door bin that fits lower left door. No door bins for lower right or middle left. I have not purchased the doors bins yet as they are "special order" plus a shipping charge.
We really have to push hard against the paddle that dispenses water and ice. It is not easy to work and the first time I tried to push it to flush the filter, I had to push so hard the refrigerator moved. This paddle is very stiff, thus making it difficult to get water and ice. All my family members have the same issue, so it is not just me experiencing this. I am hoping it will loosen up with use but 3 weeks later it is still very stiff and difficult to get water and ice. Thus only 4 stars.
Also 2 split shelves should come with this refrigerator instead of one.
And I wish the design engineers would come up with a way to have ice and water dispensed on the outside of the door, BUT still be able to have inside door and shelf space. Maybe running the water line and ice chute through the outside wall.........
TIP to those with temperature issues: ALL refrigerators are designed to be set at a temperature and STAY there for at least 48 hours BEFORE adjusting the temperature again. Constantly adjusting the temperature will break your refrigerator. Just like your air conditioner, you need to set it and let it work. If, after 48 hours, the food isn't cold enough, then make an adjustment and wait at least another 48 hours for the compartment to reach new temperature.
