Had to go back and catch up on your new refrigerator after other comments - missed the original one. We have our old one from PA in the garage and it has run like a champ! The new one we bought in this house has already had several service calls and I doubt it will last nearly as long as the other one. What is up with appliances these days? Are they built poorly to begin with??? We are getting cheated I think.

I have to say ice is very important to me too - so we always get the dispenser in the door but if it isn't to you then I'm glad you could find a model that doesn't have that.

The guy delivering this one recommended buying the extended warranty and agreed that they don’t have the lifespan that they used to.

Appliances are made and sold cheaply. That’s just a fact nowadays. Everything is disposable.

I have never had a water/ice dispenser and don’t have a water line run to that area to install one. It’s not that much of a burden for me to make ice.
