Whirlpool/Maytag/KitchenAid Fall Saving Event Rebate

Offer Expires: 9/26/2024 to 10/16/2024 Must be postmarked by: 11/16/2024

Receive up to a $200 rebate with purchase of 2 or more qualifying Whirlpool, Maytag, or KitchenAid Appliances. Rebate form must be postmarked by 11/16/2024.

Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Great little refrigerator

LGrum 10/22/2019

Bought this for extra refrigerator to fit in small area in our downstairs bar area. A perfect fit and great appearance. We like that it has an ice maker and the handles are integrated.

Fantastic!!!

Schroeder-F 7/22/2019

I have a small space and needed a lot of freezer space too. That is a hard combination with mostly boring options. This fits the space, fits more then my old fridge and freezer, and looks great!

30" Refrigerator

dcrsunrise 7/20/2019

This is a great refrigerator. The door shelves and drawers work out very well. The shelves adjust so that they will store what I have. I am very happy with it.

Nothing much to sing about

DenverColorado5280 5/24/2019

The ice maker barely works. The wrapping it came in, is still stuck on parts of the refrigerator and I cannot get it off. I mean it refrigerates, which I guess is the point.

No light in the freezer

Shamela 3/20/2019

This 18 c.f. is smaller than a Frigidaire 18cf. I thought that the c.f. was an international standard. So disappointed in this product. In addition to the much smaller freezer space and internal capacity to my last fridge (18cf Frigidaire), there is no light in the freezer compartment. . What is with that? Am i supposed to use a flashlight if I want to get some ice at nights ? Is this a day fridge? This is a complete waste of my money.

Very Nice Refrigerator - Stainless Steel Issues

VAC1 2/9/2019

Overall, I like this refrigerator. It serves all of my needs, keeps foods at optimal temperatures, and is very quiet. The problem is irregularities in the stainless steel finish. Home Depot sent out a technician to look at the issues, and both the freezer and refrigerator doors will be replaced. I am hopeful this will resolve the problem.

Worst Refrigerator Ever!!!

ES180 1/24/2019

Purchasing this refrigerator has been nothing but agony. Immediately we noticed that it was humming, gurgling, and making all kinds of noise. Many times it sounds like a steam engine train pulling into the station slowly chugging along. We like to yell out "The train is arriving!" when it does this. Other times it sounds like a jet engine winding up for take off. It is in fact so noisy, that it will wake us up at night with its torturing onslaught of clanking and vibrating. We have called Whirlpool customer service multiple times and spent hours talking to them to get this figured out. We have had a service technician out two times and he can't find anything wrong. We were told, if nothing is wrong, they cannot fix it. Really? So if nothing is wrong, then you make your refrigerators to sound like they were built in the 1950's? Never again will we purchase a Whirlpool appliance. We cannot handle the borage of noise and frustration that comes along with it. The lack of customer support is truly disappointing too. Buyer beware!!!

Simple. Cheap. Fits the opening I have.

Kris99 2/28/2018

The compressor started making noises one day after delivery requiring two service calls: one to determine the compressor was bad and one to replace the compressor. The doors look like they are folded steel and the corners created by that fold are incredibly sharp. So sharp that I had to file them down to prevent scratching hands when opening the doors.

Good fridge

10/24/2016

The steel looks great but peeling the film off was a pain. I still have a lot of plastic around the handles and where things connect.The temp can only be set at one of 3 settings.
