I bought this about 5 months ago during a renovation. I initially had an issue with a faint skweeking problem on the freezer drawer. The repairman came out as soon as
I contacted Kitchen Aid and the issue was resolved. I would like the interior of the drawers to look a little more finished but overall very happy with the purchase. The ice maker comes automatically however i also bought a KitchenAid ice maker so the ice maker in the freezer drawer was not needed. It is however nice to have should I need additional ice. For the most part it is turned off however. Very pleased.

Makes Beeping Noise Constantly

We bought this refrigerator a year ago. Since installation the refrigerator has constantly made a beeping noise indicating the drawer is open, but the drawer is not open. Finally, we had the repair service come out and they said it was the control panel. THe control panel was replaced and this did not fix the problem. Not happy with this purchase.

So Far, So Good

I read a lot of negative reviews about this product, but took a leap of faith during our remodel because it is the only one of its kind on the market (fridge/freezer/icemaker combo). After three months of heavy daily use, it is still working great. I do think it could be designed a bit better inside--the rubber mat causes the beverages to wobble/clank against each other and the attached divider reduces the capacity due to the limited arrangement options. The ice is large cubes, I prefer the small nuggets like the KitchenAid refrigerator's ice maker, but it produces ice fast--a full bin overnight. One final thought ... why wouldn't this come in print shield? It looks terrible compared to my other KitchenAid print shield appliances. But overall, it is a great product.

Great Refrigerator very poor Freezer

We bought this refrigerator to use bc we wanted a combo but didnt need a full fridge. We have had to replace the motherboard and the ice maker 3 times and it still is not fixed. We have had it repaired 10 times!!!! Either the ice maker makes too much ice or none at all. I believe there is a design flaw with the ice maker and it does not know how much ice there is in the bin. Design defect and needs to be fixed. I would have rated this a 5 star if it were just a fridge. Im trying to get kitchen aide to help me replace it with just a two drawer frige because of all the problems unless they have changed the way the ice maker works. Kitchen aide Help me!!!!

We love this appliance. We use it for our coffee bar (creamers) and other beverages. We use the freezer for all our toddler's food.

Good solution for small spaces

I've had two of these refrigerator/freezers installed in a recently renovated condo kitchen about two months ago. The plan was to maximize the counter space while providing adequate cold storage for 1 or 2 people. The drawers provide easy storage of fresh and frozen food. The design of the freezer drawer does not lend itself for some foods, like large frozen pizzas, but packages of veggies and meat store easily. The fridge drawer works well with the addition of plastic trays or baskets so small items can be stacked. Milk cartons and juice bottles fit upright.
The reason for one star reduction was two fold. The ice maker is a space eater in the freezer. While handy if you use a lot of ice, it is slow to refill the bin. I only use one of the ice makers and turned the other off and use the ice bin to hold bags of frozen veggies. The mechanism that makes the ice takes up about 25% of the freezer drawer space. Previously this refrigerator/freezer was offered with the option of no ice maker. I would have used that option for one of the units, but it was not available at the time of purchase.
The second reason for the one star reduction is the extremely cold refrigerator drawer(s). I set the refrigerator temperature to 42 degrees (warmest possible setting) to keep food from freezing in the fridge drawer. The drawers stay between 32 and 36 degrees. Meanwhile the freezer is running from -5 to 20 degrees when set at around zero. I used digital maximum/minimum thermometers to monitor the drawers for 2 months. Tweaking the freezer temp colder will cool the fridge drawer and freeze fresh food. These are not intended for long term frozen food storage, but are good if you are a regular small basket shopper.

This fridge looks good and does function well for the most part. But, as noted by others, it's alarm system is finicky. If you close the top drawer and forget to then give the bottom drawer a nudge to make sure it is snugly closed, odds are you will get an alarm in ten minutes or so. Sometimes even if you follow this two-step process, you still get an alarm. Frustrating. Please don't just tell me you appreciate the feedback, give us a solution or tell us we are just outa luck.

Terrible Quality Product

We purchased this product along with a KitchenAid French door co8nter depth refrigerator wh3n we remodeled our kitchen in 2013. In 5 years we have spent nearly as much in repairs as it would cost to purchase the appliance new. We have had to replace the control board twice. We are also on our 3rd icemaker in the French door unit. I am so sorry that we ever purchased KitchenAid appliances. They are so unreliable.

We bought this unit to replace another brand. This unit is far better than the other brand! The ice machine is more reliable. We also like the size of the ice cubes.

Had to have it repaired twice in the first year. Also has triangular etchings in all 4 corners that look weird but they say is standard. It looks like packaging scratches.
Would look at it before you take it home
