Your videos have been very helpful in our decision process - thank you! We are not in your market area, but we now have the Beko on order from our local small town dealer here in central WA state. My initial choice was the Bosch as it has two compressors, but I like the technology that Beko offers. The store services what they sell - always a big consideration - as you have pointed out.
Minutes ago we purchased a G.E. PYE22KYNFS that will replace a 31 year old G.E. top freezer lower fridge in once fashionable crinkle texture almond. We have space constraints but after receiving reliable use for 31 years . ( By the way it’s working just fine ) decided to go with a G.E. I had the opportunity to view your presentation to see the G.E. rates at 12.1% versus in some cases competition much higher with parts being less available. I appreciate your product knowledge information.
My biggest problem with my Samsung 4 door counter depth refrigerator is not being able to open the doors more. They do not open wide enough to remove the crisper drawers to wash. The drawers hit the gasket making it a real project to get them out to clean. I suspect many French door refrigerators may have similar problems. I am ready to renovate my kitchen and looking at all new appliances, including the fridge which is only 2 years old. I think I have now looked at all the video information you have provided on appliances but would like to see more discussion on what works in day to day usage, or what people hate about their purchase. Any suggestions for a fridge with doors that opens wider for a start? Thanks for all your info!
Samsung icemaker performance/reliability has been atrocious. We are filling ice trays manually and putting in the freezer. There is years-long class action litigation in progress over this.
On other sites, there are complaints about the noise of this unit. Is that a real issue? Has GE changed anything to address that? At this price point, it should run quitely.
Noise is tough because 1. it's subjective and 2. there are so many variables that contribute to it. We have not had any specific issues regarding sound with this unit but there is no such thing as a quiet fridge. They all have to turn on at some point and when they so you will hear them.
And another thing that’s annoying are the doors they are pretty solid and sealed not the easiest to open and are pretty loud if you open it and close it at night
Freestanding units usually don't have tension adjustments for hinging. One thing you could check is the leveling of the unit, if it's leaning too far back it could cause the door to close harder than it should.
