I bought this fridge one year ago, The "sealed system" had a leak and is unrepairable, as the coils are inside the sides. After buying a Whirlpool to replace it, I have to warn everyone not to buy Danby products! Go to Consumer Affairs and sites like that to get the truth about Danby.
I thought the stainless like fridge was cute, perfect for my broken spine with the bottom freezer and good on energy. It is junk made in China! I think we all expect a refrigerator to last longer than a year, but not Danby..Their customer service manager Laura just rubs salt in your wounds, if you ask for a solution! They should not be allowed to manufacture appliances that are so poorly made. It doesn't use much energy, but I didn't even come close to saving the $550. put in to the the worthless toy. Not to mention all the stress of the noises, smells and loss of food!! So beware unless you want to go through a big nightmare annually!
the fridgerator isnt that heavy its quiet as a mouse i got it on level 5 and its ice cool with the annoying frost. if you a beer fridge this is the perfect buy. i recommend this for anyone going to a college or studio apartment or efficiency
The part was defective, asked to return the part and exchange for a part that was not defective. I was given a refund, exchanging the part for a part that worked was not an option.
Filter only provides adequate filtering for a couple of weeks, then gets progressively worse in the following weeks to the point where the water coming from the filter produces a strong odor that is far worse than whatever you might detect from the tap. Horrible quality, will avoid ALL products under this brand in the future.
In any of the documentation I have found on this filter at other sites (not enough info on Amazon), it looks like this filter is cheaper as it doesn't filter the same stuff. It states it is tested to NSF Standard 42 (Chlorine, Particulates), but the Samsung model is tested and **certified** by NSF for Standard 42 *and* 53 (Cysts, Lead, Asbestos, Benzene, et al.)
I purchased this item because I read the reviews stating that it is just as good as the OEM DA29-00003G. It left a very bad plastic-chemical aftertaste to the water. I followed the manufacturers directions to the tee. The bad aftertaste remained after several gallons of flushing the filter. I ended up returning them to be replaced by the Samsung OEM filter. I wish I would have had a good experience with this filter because it could have saved me a lot of money.
I've purchased this brand for many years from other websites without issues, but this filter did not install easily and squirted water all over the fridge, despite repeated attempts. Put old one back in and no problem. Thank goodness for amazon's return policy, but I will not buy this brand again.
Arrived very quick and fits perfectly. Great product for the money. Would not hesitate to buy again.If you need an icemaker this one is great
I purchased this unit to replace the ice maker I already had... It took about 30 minutes to change the old unit with this one, and the ice is freezing as I type. Easy direct fit install for our fridge...
Built-in wine cellar with up to 170 bottle capacity
All black interior emulates the traditional wine cellar
Hinge is on the right. Door is not field reversible.

Quiet, nice looking.
Standard bottles only...
What does this mean? This means, no Pinot Noir bottles, no Reserve bottles from most vineyards, no... Well... No bottles of any kind that you'd need the fridge to age wine with. In other words, all the cheap wine that you aren't going to age will fit fine in an ideal environment for aging wine. That being said, you could remove every other shelf or simply buy fine wines that would fit... Like Ridge Monte Bello. But then you'd be limited & unable to age wines like Schaffer, Trefethen, etc.
All that aside, you can fit a few larger bottles in the top shelf, maybe the bottom shelf (seems slightly larger) and if you're entertaining a lot this unit should work fine for you to keep your wine ready to serve.
Hamilton Beach really ruined their reputation with us. These filters are so outrageously priced and hard to find. They could save money by selling just the filters.... without the plastic reuseable filter holders.
The filters come as a 2-pack which includes the plastic holder... the cost... $8$12 !!!
The unit does not fit into the resevoir as indicated. The factory said this is the way it is supposed to fit. The problem is the filter sits about 1/2" above the area it is supposed to fit in. Therefore it does not filter in my opinion. There is a 1/2" gap with no filter. I got it to work but cutting off 2 of the legs and pushing into the seat. It then fit.
product works great and much cheaper than at hamilton beach website for obtaining replacement parts and products. the filter is hard to find in stores or elsewhere online so price is quite reaonable and you get a bonus of the filter holders in two different sizes. i use the filter to cut the bitter taste from the tap water as the water here is very alkaline.
We received this item on Feb 8th. Good price after shopping around. Only problem is that the handle is TOO short. When you put it into the water well, the handle sits about half way down the well. Had to use the old handle that came with the coffee pot. Should be able to buy just the filters themselves..
If you are living where the water is hard and full of minerals, you will want to filter your coffee water as I do with these replacement filters for the Hamilton Beach coffee maker. The hardest part has been remembering to replace the filter every couple of months.
If you are reading this review, chance is you are smart enough to know how to fix your fridge. You are also dumb enough, like myself, to buy the fridge in the first place. True it was a cheap fridgem but it has been a hassle the freezer compartment has to been defrost to make the lower compartment cool. This is the second time to replace the timer, so who knows how soon I will need to replace it again. Amazon's service is good, and I am happy with them.
Installed timer. It fit perfectly and is working properly. I would recommend this service to anyone looking. Saved money versus going to a local appliance parts company.
Not much to say. My heater stopped working, and I verified that the timer was not turning it on. Ordered this one. Works just as advertised and designed.
I recently purchased this unit as a part of a full kitchen remodel. Unfortunately, upon attempting to transfer part of my wine collection I found the unit completely unsuitable. Because the unit attempts to fit 57 bottles into a relatively small space (note GE also sells a 29 bottle unit with a capacity of 4.3 cubic ft, compared to this unit's 5.5 cubic ft), the unit will not fit many 750 ml (standard capacity) wine bottles. Most Bordeaux style bottles (which have a pronounced shoulder below the neck and are basically cylindrical below the shoulder) will fit. However, many Burgundy style bottles (which taper gradually outward below the neck and are usually wider at the bottom) will not. The latter type of bottles bump up against the shelf above when the shelf they rest on is opened or closed. This kind of vibration is very bad for collectible wines, and a significant percentage of producers around the world (including the U.S.) use Burgundy style bottles.
In fairness, I have contacted GE about this problem and will edit this review if I receive a satisfactory response. Until then, I would highly recommend even wine novices steer clear of this product. There are multiple options in the $300-600 price range that have slightly less capacity but fit the vast, vast majority of 750 ml bottles.
I did some extensive research before I bought this built-in wine fridge. Being quiet is very important to me, and indeed, this is one of the quietest wine fridges I checked out. As a corollary, there's also not too much vibration. I still wouldn't keep the best wines in there for many years any compressor-based wine fridge will vibrate too much for that but the slightly spongy coating on the racks help protect the bottles to a great extent.
The one major negative is the space between shelves. Yes, the fridge can theoretically hold 57 bottles, but in practice those bottles are all either bordeaux-shaped or placed in there with precise care. If you like chardonnay, pinot noir, syrah, champagne, or anything in burgundy/rhone-shaped bottles, they tend to slide in such a way that they hit the shelf above them. This got so bad I ended up removing a few shelves, and now have to take care which size bottle goes where. Very annoying. I wish they had crammed 1 fewer shelf into the design, and given each shelf an extra 1/4" clearance.
The "complaints" about this cooler relate to wanting to fit different sized bottles -which isn't an issue for me as mine is full of Bordeaux in "standard" bottles.
I did an exhaustive review of reviews of wine coolers up to 166 bottles on every possible web site and found that compressor failure was an issue and warranty service farmed out to third parties was unreliable or non-existent.
Even though the cost of this GE at about $25 per "bottle slot" -the metric that was the easiest to use for comparative cost - is higher than the off-brands, it is much less than $50/bottle slot for a Subzero or Viking but those are two temperature zone coolers and I only wanted one zone figuring it made the cooler more complicated and more likely to fail.
You get a 5 year warranty on the whole unit from GE who presumably knows how to make refrigerators that don't break.
Although I buy most things at Amazon, Home Depot online had the same unit on sale at 10% less than Amazon with free delivery so I bought it there.
I have had good bottles of wine around for years and every once in awhile I get a bottle that had just been at room temperature too long and wasn't that good. Since I have gotten this unit I am confident that I can keep my wines until they have matured properly. So far this has been great and I love to get those special wines that I can hold without fear of spoilage. THIS was a great purchase.

Well made, attractive and a super price on Amazon. Controls are on the outside of the unit as well as a on/off for the light. Fit my outdoor kitchen needs perfectly.
First, let me say that I'm a huge fan of most Samsung products. I have owned multiple Samsung cell phones, TVs, monitors, computers, and other products. I have heard the praises on Samsung washers and dryers. All of that led me to buy the RF217ACRS (or RF217ACPN) refrigerator. Its size was perfect for the kitchen I had and at first glance I thought it was a good appliance.
Within two weeks of having it delivered the refrigerator and freezer was intermittent. The freezer temperatures varied greatly and I ended up with a freezer of melted ice cream and thawed out products. I used manual thermometers in both the refrigerator and freezer and quickly learned that it hardly ever kept the temperatures that were displaying on its digital readings. The manual thermometers were placed at different areas and it still never matched. The freezer would be at -25 degrees one moment and +30 degrees the next, all the while the digital gauge on the unit said it was -2 or 0. Frost was constantly melting and refreezing.
Thankfully, the store agreed to pick up this unit and deliver a replacement. Thinking I got a lemon, I just got another Samsung RF217ACRS. Within another month, the replacement unit (completely new, although same model) was doing the same thing. The store agreed to replace it again and I then quickly switched brands. After ditching Samsung, I'm happy to say that I'm thrilled. I now have a refrigerator that cools and a freezer that freezes, but it is NOT a Samsung. It's amazing how happy a customer can be when an appliance does what it is supposed to.
Now, even if you decide to buy the RF217ACRS (or RF217ACPN) after reading about the problems I had, let me tell you about the features of the refrigerator. The stainless steel finish is nice and the EZ Open Freezer handle is a great touch. However, you will not get many features on the inside. While the shelving units are adjustable, they do not adjust enough. You can only adjust them a couple of inches in a few directions. Most of the door shelves turn out to be too small to even use unless you just omit one of the shelves to increase the height of the others. Other units offer shelves with much more adjustable heights to them. After you look at other brands, you will see that Samsung missed the mark on designing the interior of this unit.
You can fit a gallon of milk in the doors, but don't even try to fit a one gallon pitcher of tea or something similar on the shelves. The noise level is a bit higher than I expected. It is not quiet, but it is manageable. The lighting is too dim. I know they are using LED lights to save energy, but there needs to be more light. When opening the freezer door you often spill ice into the bottom of the freezer or worse, your kitchen floor. The ice maker comes down too far into the ice bucket causing it to knock cubes off when opening/closing the door.
At the end of the day, I was never thrilled about the abilities or features of this Samsung refrigerator. When major problems surfaced, that just put the nails in the coffin. I was completely dissatisfied with this model and Samsung's customer service (I did call them after the second malfunction). I cannot recommend this model and likely cannot recommend any Samsung refrigerator.
We were looking for a newer, energy efficient refrigerator to replace our old 1993 GE one -ANDone that will fit in the small space under the cabinets. This one just fits and has the freezer on the bottom.
We were so sick of "losing" our leftovers, fruits and other goodies to the back of the fridge, only to find it a week later, spoiled. I'm glad we chose the french doors, but I wish the shelves were split instead of one long shelf. The only place to put our milk jars and ice tea and lemonade is in the door on the bottom shelf. So we can fit 2 1/2 gallon jars from the dairy farmer and one jug of lemonade. Anything else and we're out of luck. This would not be ideal for soda drinking families who do not wish to store 2 liters on their sides. Our booze has to lay down on its side on shelves. Meh. I hope it doesn't leak.
The old refrigerator had probably too much door space. When I tried putting everything from that one into this new fridge, I ended up tossing some of the odd sauces or jellies we had. The freezer portion wasn't so bad. Yes, I suppose this is a large freezer, but we buy our meat a month ahead of time from a rancher and need to store quite a bit. One half of the bottom basket is crammed full of 30-40 lbs of meat. The other half has some boxed foods, corn dogs, french toast sticks, plus all our frozen bagged veggies. There is room in the upper tray for all our ice cream products, a frozen pizza and other misc items. The rest of the upper tray is the ice maker, which takes awhile to get going according to the manual. We've only had the fridge for 24 hours, so I can't comment yet on how quickly it will make ice.
I will say that this refrigerator is whisper quiet. I don't know if it's running unless I open it for something. It uses half the electricity of the older one (we stuck a Kill-o-Watt on it before decommissioning it). It's probably a good thing that I can't fit 500 little jars of what-not in the doors--it's more streamlined and less cluttered and that means less to clean when a jar tips over and leaks. The produce drawers are huge! The meat/cheese drawer, not so much. There is plenty of shelf space for leftovers, if not for drinks.
Your lifestyle will dictate whether or not this is the right refrigerator for you. If you have lots of leftovers/take-out, you're good to go. If your family is frozen pre-packaged food eating as opposed to cooking, you'll get by, but you'll need to shop at least every other week. And of course if you are a cooking family, this will be just fine. Beer drinkers, if you don't need both produce drawers for veggies, then you can fit at least a 24 pack of long-necks in one of the drawers. Awesomeness. Big 2 liter or milk and OJ drinkers? Take a good look at the shelf configuration.
One star means I hate it. A PERFECT DESCRIPTION of how I feel about this POS.
Noisy. Clunky. The lack of options for placing shelves where you want them especially in the doors is appalling. The icemaker broke after 11 months of use because we left the scoop in the ice cube bin.... which is where it was when the unit was delivered. Nothing in the manual about "don't do that".
The stainless steel front is a pain to keep clean; the only product I've found that really does remove smudges is citrus oil, but you have to be VERY careful about how you spray it; if the oil spray lands on the floor you've got a slippery oily mess in front of your refrigerator.
While polishing the stainless yesterday, I noticed two distinct rows of RUST SPOTS running down the freezer door; clearly the stainless steel was damaged in production. YET ANOTHER warranty call.
Samsung's website is a horror I can't get in even after multiple password resets. Their online chat support is typical: "Neil" (who's real name has to be Rashnish) takes 5 minutes to say "Sorry for your inconvenience"... Oh for the love of god kill me.
I never would have purchased this refrigerator but had no choice when I bought the condo it came with. It's awful, and I'm ready to toss it on the street.
This Fridge failed after 10.5 months of use. The compressor would not kick on and all my food spoiled. Before that the compressor was noticeably loud from day one. I have been hardly home and the fridge got very little real use. It looks good and I used to love how it looked in my modern kitchen, but now I am very disappointed. Buy at your own risk! Also, I suggest that you search for reviews of the same fridge in different colors (all the same under the hood) to make a more informed choice!

SUMMIT's "hidden" evaporator maximizes space and simplifies cleanup
Bought this for one of our restaurants and didnt work right out of the box. Called to have service work done on it but there was no one to service it. I was told to hire my own company and send them the reciept for a refund. Thats crazy, a brand new $700 plus refrigerator and now I need to come up with more out of pocket expences to repair it! Are you kidding me? I would never consider purchasing Summit again. Oh, by the way, its made in Slovania, and I am returning it for a full refund.
Product worked great. Differed slightly from the original but installed satisfactorily.Should have checked out the valve before I replaced and discarded the old (probably working) ice maker.
Ice maker arrived as described and worked perfectly in our Sub Zero. It's a Whirlpool part but it was exactly like the original Sub Zero part. Excellent seller and great value!
This part works great for a refrigerator that only makes ice and does not also have water in the door. We had to return it for a different one but if you only have an ice maker and not water in the door, this one works great.
