Rated 5 out of 5 by eileen Just Understand the Drawbacks
My prior refrigerator was a Sub-Zero. I think this refrigerator delivers the same quality cooling and humidity control. It keeps produce fresh for more than a week. For a small unit, every inch is usable and it is easy to clean.
Do understand that the freezer compartment is small. The three drawers maximizes the usable space and it is easy to organize. However, there is limited space. Less important, the back legs are not adjustable, only the front legs. On my uneven floor, this presented a challenge. For most kitchens, it probably is not an issue.
I would definetely buy this refrigerator again.
