Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Excellent Sales & Delivery Service

Hamilton Fish 7/10/2022

Refrigerator provides a fresh new clean appearance inside and out to our rental unit. Reasonably priced so that rent can be kept at a reasonable rate. Delivery was one time efficient and courteous, removed old refrigerator and packing materials. Great instore explanation of supplemental warranty insurance.

Love this refrigerator. Space use is awesome!! More space useable than the 18cu ft one I had!! The only bummer is that it doesn't have a cold cuts and cheese drawer but more importantly very loud motor. That really bothers me

Frustrating unit. Feels like a lemon.

Frank T H 1/30/2022

When product arrived last year, fan made a noise. Had to have GE come out and adjust. Repairman was efficient, though not terribly cordial ( another issue of course). Unit regularly goes down if items get too close to vents in freezer. Of course airflow is necessary, but I imagine the efficiency is so tight that there is little margin of error. Now the freezer is cold and appropriate and the lower chamber (fridge) is only getting to 50 degrees. We have two months left on warranty and will have to call them out again. Gaskets are clean and fine. No dirt or ice apparent. Really a frustrating unit so far. Will consider another brand in the future if this continues to be a chronic headache.

SO SO Loud--Pick Another Brand

Not Fan of This Fridge 1/6/2022

I bought this refrigerator in July 2020. After a short time, it became louder and louder. Now 18 months into owning it, it has ratcheted up the noise a lot. Now whenever it runs, I can hear it grinding. Spend your money on another brand. I wish I had.

Happy customer!

CR58 12/4/2021

I am very pleased with this fridge; it replaced my GE fridge of 17 years that was becoming very noisy and running constantly. In regards to other posts about how noisy this fridge is, in comparison to the horrible noisy compressor on the old one, this is bliss! Yes it is a bit noisier than my friends fridges, but those are bigger than this model. All in all I recommend this fridge. It is keeping food under 40° at setting 3 and is operating perfectly. I like the smooth handle, as the old fridge had textured one that I couldn't keep clean. I gave it 4 stars because of the wire shelves. But for the price and availability I can live with that. The fridge with glass shelves was not available. I have space limitations in my tiny house, and other brands do not have smaller fridges. GE delivers in that aspect.
