Rated 5 out of 5 by SimiValley from Great "big" side by side Refrigerator We purchased this when doing a home remodel to replace a Viking side by side that was about 35" wide. This one is 48" and what a difference! We are generally not big fans of side by side refrigerators, but this one is in a different league with the additional width. We found the price to be much less expensive than the typical high end lines such as SubZero, etc., and the value and looks of this model are great . It has the fingerprint proof stainless, which we also like - less time wiping and more time refrigerating! It has worked flawlessly since we installed it. Our diet requires us to eat a lot of vegetables, and the amount of fresh food storage is exceptional.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jeff from Just Lovely & Works Beautifully! We bought this to replace a Jenn Air 48' built in that was a 2003 model - What an Upgrade! The exterior finish is just gorgeous and the handles match our stainless steel 48" gas stove - This refrigerator offers plenty of shelf & in the door storage space, including gallon storage, it has beautiful LED lighting on the side that illuminates the interior well, it has a beautiful temperature control panel, a filter for the ice maker which by the way has totally exceeded our expectations on the making of ice cubes - quickly makes ice, is quieter than most ice makers, and doesn't have that "off" taste - The freezer is spacious too. Keeps ice cream frozen solid! All around, we are delighted with this purchase!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Suzanne from Fabulous Refrigerator I bought this after lengthy research and much internal debate about whether to get a Sub Zero. I couldn't be happier. It provides all the refrigerator and freezer space I need. It is bight in the interior and everything is easy to find. The ice maker makes so much ice I doubt I could ever use it all. The look is great and something I didn't expect was the smudge proof surface. It is simple to keep spotless. A cloth comes with it and only water is required for cleaning, really. Be sure to know in advance that cleaning products can harm the finish. Oh, and the $4,000 savings from the Sub Zero isn't bad either.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Cat, home chef from Excellent features and look Waited 10 weeks for our first one to be delivered, yes first one. Within 24 hours it was obvious there was a problem with the refrigerator section. Kitchenaid were super helpful and efficient having a tech out the next morning who confirmed the control panel was malfunctioning. I was offered the repair which I declined as I felt a High end appliance should be brand new and functioning not repared. Kitchenaid delivered our second unit 4 weeks later and so far so good with a notable bonus that it is signifucantly quieter than the previous one too.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Colorado Contractor from Awesome Layout! I am a General Contractor and Master Carpenter who has installed all manufactures 48" Refrigerators in my clients custom homes over the years. My wholesale supplier recommended the Kitchen Aid 48" Side by Side for my personal kitchen remodel. I am very glad she did as I find it to have more usable space than the Sub Zeros and GE's I've installed over the years. It is quite, efficient with well organized drawers and shelves, excellent lighting, and I love the location of the ice maker and the quantity of ice it produces. I am thrilled with this purchase. I hope it holds up to years of use.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Daniel Z from Replacement is much better The first unit I received was not acceptable. There was no proper seal on the doors, they popped open, when you would close one the other one would open. The ice maker tray over filled and dropped water into the ice bin causing a huge block of ice to form rather than cubes. All the issues seem to have been fixed with the new unit and I have had no problems. It is a wonderful product, however the amount of time that it took to get it replaced was over 6 months and that was extremely disappointing. I appreciate the final product and replacement, thank you.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Don from Great Price - Acceptable Performance For a built-in fridge of this size, we were very happy with the price and the look in our all KitchenAid kitchen with the nicest KitchenAid appliances available. The look is simple - lots of flat stainless steel, and the quality is in-line with the higher end non built in models. Not on par with competing built-ins, such as Thermador or Sub-Zero, but at a much lower price. We are experiencing an "issue" with ours whereby the freezer will drop from 0 degrees to -10 on a daily basis. After a repairman replaced various parts and called KA several times, they determined that this is normal - that the system is boosting the cold because the ice maker has not harvested ice in a while. Of course, we have a separate KitchenAid ice maker, so we keep the one in the fridge off. Apparently that doesn't matter - the temperature cycling doesn't know or acknowledge that the ice maker is off and just keeps cooling down to negative 10 to boost the ice maker...seems like an odd design to me, but so long as the system can handle it, I guess it otherwise performs fine after 1 year.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Mary from loved the INSIDE upgrades to an existing model Happy to replace my kitchen Aid refrigerator with the same Kitchen aid side by side model that I had for 15 yrs. This model is an exact inside replica of my old one however the existing panels frames are not compatible and would not fit thus resulting in extra expenses,terrible look and inconvenience.The designers need to take care of existing clients that have held the exact kitchens.It is ok for new kitchens when kitchen cabinets are being made to measure~!otherwise I am happy with the product.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Ann from 48 inch built in panel ready Love this built in. We purchased our first KitchenAid 48 inch built in which was also panel ready about 20 years ago. This time no one told us that it did NOT come with handles. 20 years ago it did but not this time. I was surprised that the salesman didn't offer that information until after we received it and had to call to ask where the handles were. At that point he told us it did not come with handles. Never saw it on your web site either.

Rated 1 out of 5 by disappointed foodie from Horrible! This refrigerator is a big disappointment. I can't put any fruit or vegetables in there. i love to cook and i need fresh fruits and veggies. they are all wilted or rotten in a few days. I have an old refrigerator in my garage and it works better than my brand new one. I called the person who sold it to me and he has nothing to say. I can't put things on the top shelf or they will freeze.
