I bought this to replace a Kenmore refrigerator/top freezer I had in my garage for 15 years. I also bought this refrigerator only(no freezer) sight unseen since they sell so few of these and do not have a store model to look at. I am a home brewer and needed height to fit the soda keg. If I had gone with the traditional refrigerator/top freezer, there would only be one shelf for sodas, water, etc. With the refrigerator only, it allows me 2 nice height shelves. For this I would have given the refrigerator 5 stars as it is perfect for my needs.
But here are the negatives. 'You get what you pay for'
Luckily this is a garage refrigerator for it is VERY loud. if you had this on the inside of a house, the noise would drown out everything when it is on. The side shelves are very flimsy. I have to catch myself when closing the door by pulling on the shelves. Granted, this is not the correct way to shut the door, but am in the habit from the old refrigerator which had much better side shelves. It would be nice to have adjustable shelves because I could have set up 3 shelves, but because of the price I understand why .
I am pleased with the purchase and it fits my needs perfectly. But if you are buying this to go inside a house, be prepared for noise. For my fellow home brewers who are looking for a perfect refrigerator for the garage or basement, this is perfect.

What's great about it: Easy set up, good price, does the job it was purchased for
What's not so great: Haven't found anything yet
Bought this to use in our insulated garage as a second household refridgerator. Simple...no bells and whistles but does the job of keeping extra beverages and items cold. So far satisfied with our purchase!
This product has... No hard to reach spots, Lots of door storage

What's great about it: Capacity, it's ALL refrigerator, no freezer to get in the way of bottles and wedding cake, or any large cake
What's not so great: Again, I haven't used it yet, so I don't know
Haven't used as yet so cannot comment on performance. We have a few huge yard parties coming up and that is why it was purchased for the garage. I hope it works as good as it looks.
This product has... A quiet design, No hard to reach spots, perfect size

What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: Price when not on sale
We were replacing a different unit in our garage, and decided to go with a separate refrigerator and freezer. We placed a thermometer inside checking the temp and were concerned about the readings; but when a service person came and tested the temp on every shelf we realized the thermometer was inaccurate. I called Frigidaire and specifically asked if this could be used in an insulated garage and the rep said absolutely. It keeps things nice and cold, there's LOTS of storage and it's easy to clean. My only wish was that it had an on-the-door temp setting/display like the freezer. Also, I thought it was a bit pricey when not on sale.
This product has... Design I love, No hard to reach spots, Lots of door storage, no small useless freezer compartment
About me... Always get the deal, Love to cook, Practical shopper

What's great about it: Great extra space for us
What's not so great: nothing negative so far
Frig arrived today, it's a nice frig, no frills, but nice. We are using it as a second refrigerator for more space and it is just right, not fancy but great as a second frig, ours is in the garage.
Hope this helps.

This is an excellent option for a second refrigerator! Keeps things cold as it should! I gave 4 out of 5 for features, because it's very basic. The height is listed correctly in the specifications, maximum height with hinge. No surprises for me!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's not so great: incorrect specs
The cabinet height of this refrigerator is actually 65 inches, not 64.5 inches as indicated in the specifications. This caused an an installation problem for me. I have not used the refrigerator yet.
I would recommend this to a friend!
