Features
  • Key Features
  • KitchenAid\'s ExtendFresh Continuous Plus temperature management system with variable speed technology independently monitors temperatures inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
  • This helps prevent wide temperature swings and aids in maintaining the taste and texture of your foods.
  • The AquaSense In-Door-Ice ice dispensing system puts the ice bucket in the freezer door to generate almost 20% more usable capacity compared to previous KitchenAid models with conventional ice makers.
  • An easy-to-grip handle simplifies removal and replacement of the ice bucket.
  • The AquaSense Base-Grille Filtration System includes a filter that removes impurities from tap water. The filter is located conveniently on the base grille so it is easy to change and does not take away usable refrigerator space.
  • ClearVue SatinGlide refrigerator and freezer baskets feature a soft-underside handle that makes the baskets easy to open. A glide system adds stability and minimizes side-to-side movement, while the clear front panel offers increased visibility.
  • The innovative ExtendFresh Ingredient Care Center features dedicated electronic controls to create a specialized storage area for four types of sensitive foods and ingredients - including meats, fruits and vegetables.
  • A simple adjustment allows you to create an interior enviroment that stores foods at proper temperature and humidity levels.
  • Refrigerator and freezer doors feature the adjustable flexibility of Slide N Lock ClearVue door storage.
  • Sturdy, self-contained bins support heavy items and help increase your refrigerator storage capacity by accepting frequently accessed items, including gallon containers.
  • The Slide N Lock technology makes it easy to move bins up and down.
  • Doors and cabinets are sealed with foam-in-place insulation to add strength and durability.
  • Whisper Quiet Refrigeration System features a single, variable speed compressor that runs continuously, allowing it to operate at much slower speeds. The compressor is also insulated to further absorb operating sounds.
  • KitchenAid built-in refrigerators meet current ENERGY STAR qualifications, meaning they use at least 15% less energy than required by minimum federal energy standards.

Product Reviews
Rated 1 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 1 out of 5 by Disappointed This EXPENSIVE refrigerator is NOT worth the money. It boasts the space inside and it has lights mounted within that limits almost every shelf. The stainless steel skins are so hard to keep clean. I should have know that with 3 kids...my bad... The freezer door sprung a spring and it was easy to fix, but for crying out loud... for a brand new fridge, nothing should go wrong for a least 5 years. It also makes a terrible humming noise. I have to turn it off and on to reset the noise. 2/6/09
