This has been considered a fairly good solid construction with the French-Door at the bottom being easy to slid in and out, even when fully loaded.
The electronic displays and controls in the door are useful and easy to use and the Fast Cool option and Humidity-Controlled sections are a great advantage.
Having shelving and containers that are able to be adjusted and moved about makes it so easy to rearrange the unit to fit in with the ever changing needs of the household like festival times.
One small disadvantage that was found in this unit was that the ice dispenser sometimes got stuck with some ice.
