First side-by-side refrigerator.
Sharky18/11/2019
Since it's our first tile, it took a while to figure out the best way to utilize the space in it. We only have one complaint, the ice maker makes a lot of noise when dispensing ice and I don't mean crushing ice. Just dispensing. I don't like to use it when my wife is sleeping. Every now and then it makes a tapping noise.

Great products... perfect
Lisa Fazz18/09/2019
We bought this fridge a week ago. So far so good. Crush the ice (cubed and crushed) in the door, as well as the water. The exterior is not that difficult to keep clean. I bought a stainless steel cleaner from the appliance store and it's been fine. The only issue is that the tops of the fridge doors are not perfectly aligned. The other is a little taller...even though the door handles are perfectly aligned. I think this is something I will need to get used to. Overall, I recommend this fridge. Plenty of usable space inside... the only thing I would like to see improved is more adjustments to the fridge shelves. The only options now are to remove a shelf if you need to place something tall on a shelf.

We've had this model for a few weeks now and so far we're very happy. Interior lighting is great, convenient shelving throughout, and it appears to be a solid fridge. Let's finish off our kitchen remodel with all the matching Whirlpool products.

I exchanged my old refrigerator after 25 years for this one. This is the second. The first one they brought out was faulty with the leaking waterline and had to wait 2 weeks for a new one. I've had this a few weeks now and it seems to work fine. It has the same features as my old one. well lit inside and keeps the temperature well. The shelves are not as adjustable as I would like, but they have 3 drawers where there were only 2 before.

It Works very well.
tidy girl09/09/2019
We were hesitant to buy this cooler after reading several negative reviews. As it was one of three that would fit in our space, we bought it. We do not regret it, as it does everything it should. The water dispenser located in front of the ice dispenser makes it easy to fill containers larger than a glass. There are two improvements that would make this model better. The first would be adjustable shelves on the fridge (the door has adjustable shelves), the second would be a fingerprint resistant finish on the doors. We had no issues with the fridge making loud noises. or water dripping from the dispenser, as we read in several reviews.

BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK
brown sugar19/08/2019
After being in my house for 13 years, I decided to replace my WORK APPLIANCES. I have limited space but wanted a side-by-side freezer so I want to eliminate an old downstairs freezer. After just 9 days my NEW WHIRLPOOL WAS COMPLETELY BAD! I lost all my meats, seafood you name it all gone. THE MOST DISASTERING THING IS NO ONE, NOT PC RICHARDS OR WHIRLPOOL WANTS TO REPLACE MY BAD FOOD. Single mom just out of everything.

Overall happy with the purchase
mapes19/08/2019
We have had our fridge installed about 3 weeks ago now and we really like it. The fridge it replaced was a very old Amana fridge (the water and ice dispensers hadn't worked in years). We are pleased with the water filtration and the easy access to water and ice through the dispenser. I would say that the noise levels of the Whirlpool and the old Amana are about the same. It's only noticeable when the ice finishes freezing and the ice drops into the holding tray, when the ice maker is being refilled with water, or when you open the fridge and close it and need to cool it down again for a few minutes. The location of the water dispenser takes a little getting used to as it is opposite the ice dispenser. Overall, we are very satisfied customers.

refrigerator with hydromassage
P-zoe27/07/2019
I recently purchased a Whirlpool Fridge to replace my old fridge. I'm impressed with the visibility - I can see everything in the fridge - without having to move things. The drawers are transparent and the lighting is excellent. There is plenty of space, adjustable shelves. I've never had an ice/water dispenser and was worried it would taste 'weird'. I was pleasantly surprised. Clever design - water in front of ice rather than some side-by-side dispensers I've seen. Works well. My previous fridge lasted 27 years - expecting the same for this one.

I love the water and ice out the door!
LeeLee23318/07/2019
I've had this fridge for a week now and I'm really enjoying it. It's a little taller than my old one, but I'm used to it. (I've never had an ice maker before, it's not as loud as when I manually dumped the ice from my ice cube trays into a bin lol). The fridge side is very roomy for a 33 inch but the freezer side is quite small, I don't freeze a lot of stuff and it's just my husband and I so it works. I couldn't get the fingerprint resistant one and had to buy a new cleaner because nothing else worked. Affresh works great! I'm told the tough topcoat is actually a paint, so I'm glad I bought the regular one. The ice dispenser takes a little getting used to but I love it, it's diced and crushed and the water comes out really fast. The lighting inside is great and it's an Energy Star appliance. I had limited choices because of my opening size and this one was perfect for me. I traded in a 15 year old Amana that was still working so time will tell if this new one lives up to my old one. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because sometimes an ice cube randomly falls out of the dispenser and because I've only had it a week.

Decent
Jason918/07/2019
There aren't many options for a side-by-side fridge in this size, but this one is decent. The freezer is a little small, but it makes and holds a lot of ice. The only downsides are that the shelves are not adjustable - there are only preset locations (although the door boxes are adjustable) and the noise from them. It seems to run constantly and is a little louder than any other fridge I've owned. It's not horrible, but it's a very noticeable constant hum that I can hear even from far away. Also, it detects fingerprints and smudges quite easily, but that's to be expected I guess. But it's a beautiful device!

Good looking, great temperature control
Cindy N24/06/2019
I bought this side-by-side refrigerator less than a month ago, switching from the other style, with freezer on top. I love the fridge and freezer temperature control settings as they are very sensitive and there is no guess work. The ice maker and water dispenser work great, giving options for crushed or cubed. The fridge door is deep with plenty of storage. The only reason I didn't give this fridge 5 stars is because the shelves inside are not adjustable so my tallest items I have to put in the door and some of those items are heavy and I prefer to put them in the main center fridge. Overall I am very happy with this fridge.

2 falls
LindsayP22/06/2019
Good fridge except: 1) the water dispenser spout is installed quite far, almost past the freezer door, and the drip tray doesn't catch drips, so there's a constant smear of water on the freezer door. If there was an additional tray to buy that extended a bit, I would. 2) as soon as the fridge door opens, the fridge floods with condensation like no other fridge I've seen. Not sure if there's a way around this, any feedback would be great. Other than these two minuses, the fridge is good.

Not really fingerprint resistant
Nancy 5828/05/2019
The seller told us it was fingerprint resistant, but it really isn't. I have to use stainless steel cleaner to get rid of them. Self-adjusting ports do not line up with each other.

Door racks are terrible, parts broken in 7 months
KRobGenericName22/04/2019
Door shelves constantly falling down - lots of broken glass jars. A shelf broke when it fell too. Also, the ice dispenser broke within 7 months. Quality is disappointing. Unfortunately it is the only refrigerator on the market that fits properly in our space.

crazy and frustrated11/04/2019
I bought this black refrigerator 3 months ago. When it arrived I assumed the hinge covers were missing however it turns out that is how it should be. I called the store where I bought it and was told to deal with Whirlpool, which I did. Customer service was very understanding and listened to my frustration. But in the end, they said that's how it's made and there was nothing they could do for me and recommended that I contact the dealer again. However they said they would log my compliance which basically means sorry for your bad luck. I've included a photo of what mine looks like and the image from the Whirlpool website, as you can see, it's a huge discrepancy. Do not buy this fridge as it looks cheap and poorly made.

Decent small fridge with water/ice dispenser in the door.
LexiLau04/02/2019
We had limited space for a new fridge and wanted one with a water/ice dispenser in the door. This refrigerator fits perfectly in our kitchen and we are happy with it except for a few things. It's REALLY small inside. The freezer is tiny, but we have a chest freezer in our garage, so this isn't too much of an issue. Also, you cannot adjust the refrigerator shelves up or down. I have to put jugs of milk, orange juice, etc. on the door shelf, which is big enough to fit a gallon of milk. I think because there is so much weight on the door it tends to open with a lot of force. Also, when drawing water from the door water dispenser, if you don't hold the cup there for a few seconds after getting the water, it will drip out the front of the door. Overall, I would recommend it if you need a decent fridge for a small space.

Solid but noisy fridge
laurie2610/12/2018
So far the fridge has worked fine and does what it needs to do. I would rate this cooler 5 stars but the freezer hum to keep it cool is too loud. For reference, it's louder than my dishwasher when it runs. I checked and the technician said these swirls were made that way. If you always have music on in the kitchen, the noise isn't too bad.

Our other fridge stopped working just as we were starting our kitchen remodel. Aside from having to wait a few weeks for it to arrive and also for the job to be completed, we are very pleased. We were limited in the selection of models due to the size of the space allocated to the refrigerator. We could actually use a little more space inside, but due to size limitations and my desire to have a tile, our options were limited.

FAQs
What are some of the problems with Whirlpool refrigerators? ›
- A fan blade is breaking or obstructed. The fan blade is probably the number one reason why a fridge makes a lot of noise. ...
- The evaporator fan motor is failing (or has failed). ...
- The condenser fan motor is defective. ...
- The water inlet valve is clogged. ...
- The compressor is damaged.
The typical life expectancy of a refrigerator is 10 to 15 years, and the average fridge with a freezer on the bottom or top can reliably run for about 13 years. However, the refrigerator's lifespan varies by the model, so don't rely on its age alone to determine if you're ready for a new one.
What is the average lifespan of a Whirlpool refrigerator? ›According to the United States Department of Energy, refrigerators last approximately 12 years. At that point, it's likely time to replace it.
Why is my Whirlpool side by side refrigerator not cooling but freezer works? ›When you find your Whirlpool refrigerator not cooling but freezer works fine a defective evaporator fan motor is a common part malfunction. This motor powers the fan that blows cold air over the refrigerator coils. Without this fan refrigerant won't cool enough to maintain the refrigerator's temperature.
