    Product Overview

    Drink Loft™ overhead storage

    Hang cans overhead with our patent-pending storage system, freeing up shelf space below for large, flat items like pizza boxes.

    Infinity slide shelf

    Make room for tall items with an adjustable shelf that slides back and stops at any point to give you the space you need, even if it’s just an inch, so you can fit and find it all.

    Flexi-Slide™ bins

    Make space for tall condiments and wine bottles in the door with bins that quickly and easily slide up or down, even when fully loaded.

    Adjustable hide-away shelf

    Instantly add more shelf space when you need it. The adjustable hide-away shelf can be pulled down for extra loading space or pushed up to create more room for tall items.

    Gallon door bin

    Free up shelf space with a gallon door bin that fits items like a 2-liter soda bottle or gallon of milk, giving you flexibility when and where you need it.

    Large freezer drawer

    With ample room for frozen meals or even a frozen turkey, enjoy more meal flexibility with a large freezer drawer.

    Auto hibernate mode

    This technology adjusts the temperature inside the refrigerator based on how often the door is opened so that it operates efficiently while you’re away.

    Factory-installed icemaker

    Don’t worry about refilling ice trays with this pre-installed icemaker that makes sure you have plenty of ice on hand.

    Fast Drink option

    Chill drinks fast in the freezer. A helpful tone will remind you after 30 minutes so you can grab properly chilled drinks when you need them, even for last-minute guests.

    good size for our needs

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have only had the unit for less than a week but so far, so good. It fits perfectly in our master suite situation.

    3rd time is the charm

    (This review was collected as part of a promotion.) After 2 fridges that were delivered and didnt work the 3rd one did. Have issues with the door seal but that will be covered under warranty. Other then all the issues I have had the fridge is great.

      Nice fridge for small spaces

      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a decent fridge, but I paid more than a full sized one for a tiny fridge.

      Fridge bottom freezer

      (This review was collected as part of a promotion.) This is my second one of these refrigerators. It is good and efficient however, it freezes all my vegetables which I’m not too happy with.

      Nice looking but fails to keep stuff frozen

      Ive had similar issues that others have faced. This model fails to keep the freezer cold enough for ice. Has happened twice now in the past 2 years. The first time it worked after a few days. This time I'm looking for an alternative fridge. (I just noticed a plug in the freezer side which has an arrow on it indicated it can be moved. Not sure what its for. It was jogged by one of the freezer trays.) On the plus side, both the fridge and freezer sections are very well laid out. The trays and bins are designed in a manner that holds much more than its small cubic space suggests. Far better use of space than our full size 36" wide GE which has positively terrible interior design. In addition, the exterior is good looking which is not usually the case in these smaller 'garage' or basement appliances. Fire the engineers and keep the designers on this model. Unfortunately I very likely will be influenced by this experience.

      Horrible fridge.

      Horrible. Compressor quit working after a few months of use. It's sealed and I can't get anyone to repair it. Do not buy this fridge.

      Clean but Noisy

      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoy the clean look of the refrigerator but it is very noisy-sounds like grinding on regular intervals.

      Sorry - but must say do not buy this refrigerator

      Manufacturing and design leave much to be desired. Sure, it looks great and is easy to use, clean etc. but I am now on my third machine and 5th service call in just three years.

      Bad Product - Bad Service!

      Hello Possible Customers. Run from this fridge. Mine has broken (in operatable) TWICE! I have owned it 3 years this month (July 24). I left my review Roy in Texas 2 weeks ago. Whirlpool was very quick to respond creating a case for me. I was hoping they were going to do the right thing. Responding to my review created a case and asked me to reach out to them. They messaged me seeming to be helpful. They asked if I had an extended warranty. I do not because I expected this fridge to FUNCTION more than 36 MONTHS. I have owned 10+ fridges in my life and 5 of them are still running 10+ years with NEVER A PROBLEM. Shame on Whirlpool for scamming their customers . Please beware!

      Still Great After a Year

      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nearly a year later, this fridge remains ideal for my 470 square foot apartment with its compact kitchen. For its size, the fridge is surprisingly spacious and the ice marker remains reliable.

      Energy efficient and quiet

      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had this delivered 3 weeks ago and am very happy with it. It seems to be very energy efficient and quiet compared to my last refrigerator. I live alone and it is the perfect size for me.

      Stopped Working after less than 14 Months

      Do not buy this appliance. Ours lasted less than 12 months before the compressor died and the unit stopped cooling. Read all of the reviews and you will see that there is a fundamental issue with the quality of this appliance with countless people having the same issues.
