Frigidaire FFHS2622MS 26 Cu. Ft. Stainless Steel Side-By-Side Refrigerator - Energy Star<

Frigidaire FFHS2622MS 26 Cu. Ft. Stainless Steel Side-By-Side Refrigerator - Energy Star
  • Store-More Humidity-Controlled Crisper Drawers
  • Energy Saver Plus Technology
  • Ready-Select Controls
  • Dimensions (WHD): 36" X 69-3/8" X 31-3/4"

We bought this side by side as part of a kitchen package because we needed to update our appliances to sell our home, and Frigidaire got better ratings than other appliance packages in the same price range.

Pros: It's energy star, which was our first priority. Fridge is spacious with spill proof shelves and adjustable door shelves. The 2 crisper drawers are roomy. Easy for one person to wheel out to clean behind it. Dispenses filtered water and ice and the filter is easy to get to.

Cons: Only one climate controlled crisper drawer the other one has no climate control. No cheese/snack drawer. The freezer space is small because of the ice dispenser, which is noisy. Water from the filtered dispenser is lukewarm, not cold. The stainless front shows fingerprints and needs to be wiped constantly.

Despite the cons, the fridge is nice for the price we paid.

Buy

I just purchased this refrigerator as part of a whole-kitchen rehab and have had it for a little more than a month. In that time, the light in the freezer stopped working, the ice dispenser stopped working, the refrigerator started beeping every two minutes for the last four days with no visible indication of why or how to stop, and--far more seriously and most recently--the water for the ice maker did not shut off flooding my entire kitchen. I came home to water flowing from my freezer and had to find the shut off in my basement in order for it to stop. After a technician came out, he indicated that none of these problems were related to each other in any way (the beeping to the water shut-off, for example). The distributor is providing a full replacement, which I am hesitant about and will document my experience with that one after I've received it.

My repair man came out to look at my refrigerator and warned me never to buy a Frigidaire. He repairs them all day long and when it came time to fix my side by side, he told me to get rid of it and go with a different brand. Best Buy delivered an LG and told me the same thing. They pick up Frigidaires all the time.

Want

After less than four years of normal use, the water dispenser in the door of our Frigidaire refrigerator stopped working. The ice dispenser broke a year ago--for the second time. The first time was after only 13 months. We had it fixed (I had to practically beg Frigidaire to cover it under warranty) that time, but the second time they refused to stand by their product. We've also had to replace a number of the cheap plastic doors and drawer slides that have broken. If you want a cheap, disposable refrigerator you'll have to replace or repair after a few years, get a Frigidaire. If you want something that lasts, buy any other brand.

This is a nice side by side fridge for $1000.00.

It has 2 crisper drawers, with plenty of adjustable spill proof shelves and adjustable door shelves. It does dispense filtered water, all be it room temp, not ice cold as expected. I would have liked both crispers to of had controls to regulate climate but only one is regulated. What gives in regards to snack space? Does Frigidaire not believe in a snack drawer or a nice pull out clear draw for cheese, and assorted pate and such? Alas, my cheese needs to be tucked away on the shelf or in a crisper.

Also, I wish the freezer had a bit more space or that they cold have put the ice maker in the door instead of the freezer, it takes up a lot of premium freezer space. The interior cleans up pretty well and after a touch up of stainless steel cleaner the outside hides smudges and fingerprints.

I prefer a bottom freezer unit with french doors up top but as fridges go this system is really nice and a great buy for $1000.00. You can't go wrong with this purchase!
