Pros
Pro There is easily enough storage for a big family
Most refrigerators under $1500 offer 20 - 24 cubic feet of storage space. This one has an extra large 26-cubic feet capacity, which is enough space to keep groceries for at least 5-6 people. With a little shelve repositioning and squeezing everything together, you can easily fit all the snacks you prepared for a big party.
Pro The temperature inside is precise and stable
This fridge handles excellently the one task that every fridge should do - maintain the temperature inside precisely as you set it, without any significant fluctuations or warm spots like in many other refrigerators in the price range. The difference in temperature across different areas is 2-3 °F at most, compared to 5-10 °F that you often see in mid-level refrigerators, and you don't have to worry about your food going bad or getting freezer burn due to a sudden shortlived spike.
Cons
Con It doesn't make a lot of ice
This fridge has a smaller ice maker, which on the one hand frees some space in the freezer, but also limits ice production to about 3 pounds per day, whereas a large share of refrigerators today make at least 3.5 - 4.5 pounds. If you need more than a couple of glasses worth of ice, say for a party, you will likely have to get it from the store.
