Frigidaire My Final Take

So after three months of using our new Frigidaire Professional Refrigerator, I have had a chance to discover all the features that it has and some of the things I think can be improved. My overall impression is that this a refrigerator that I would probably give some consideration to buying.
Some of my favorite features include:
The performance lighting which keeps all my fridge’s contents clearly visible and just adds that extra special flair that you would want in a professional series refrigerator.
Ice and Water Filtration We use the water dispenser daily up to about 1 gallon or more a day and the water tastes great and doesn’t come out at a snail’s pace. I love the crushed ice and it comes out fast and never once got clogged like out other fridge. This is a definite plus!
No Slip Bin Liners I love this very small yet extremely useful feature. Everything in my door typically bottles and such never slide around when the door swings open. I love the fact that there isn’t a bunch of clanging together.
Wine /Can Rack I just love this feature, and the fact that you can store your cans in the door. One thing that I would love to see is a place for your eggs in the door too!
The freezer has ample space in it, and I especially love the space on the shelf at the top. You can slide a frozen pizza right in there and a few pints of your favorite Ben and Jerrys, or frozen juices and the door still closes! I love the deep basket drawers and I seem to be able to fit a lot more in them.
Stainless Steel this is just one of those things that gives an appliance a classy look. I love how easy it is to clean without any special cleaners and added extra fuss.
Spill Safe Shelves cleanup is very easy and spills stay contained which makes it easier to keep a handle on keeping messes cleaned up and no drips down to the shelves below.
Adjustable Space Wise Shelf this feature is nice in concept, but I felt like the handle or crank to raise and lower the shelf was a little on the flimsy side and somewhat hard to turn when there were things on the top shelf. I do love the feature overall but the mechanics are a little rough around the edges.
Automatic Alerts At first,when I heard the beeping sound the fridge was making when the door was left open, I found it a bit annoying. But after a few days with toddlers, I found this a useful feature. Also, if there is something in the way of the door, this is great for pointing that out.
Humidity Controlled Crisper Drawers I love that the fruit and vegetable drawer has a separation in it, the drawers to me seem a little flimsy, and the humidity controls take some adjusting in order not to freeze things. It was mildly frustrating when my meats and cheeses in the other drawer kept freezing, even with the control moved all the way over. We had to raise the fridge a degree, which was no big deal as it kept everything cold enough. But this may take some tweaking on Frigidaire’s part.
Overall this is a wonderful fridge with some really cool and useful features, which is what you look for in an appliance that you use daily. The space is great for it’s smaller size and definitely saves you some considerable time when putting way your groceries. I love that there seem to be designated places for things. It makes putting groceries away a much more efficient endeavor when you have a shelf for taller items, places to put cans, a fruit and vegetable drawer that’s divided. It makes keeping things organized a snap. The fridge itself is beautiful to look at and it adds that extra touch of class to your kitchen. Not only is it a classy fridge but its a great energy saver which can cut your electric bill by a few extra bucks so you can fill your freezer with extra Ben and Jerry’s (ok ok so I like ice cream!) Thank you to Frigidaire and Mom Central for giving me such a cool opportunity to be a test drive mom and to have this really wonderful appliance in our home for years to come!
