We got this model as a replacement in our office kitchen at work a year or two back. Has been rock solid. I like the smaller ice cubes it makes instead of the big Amazon smile style cubes when it come to filling water bottles.

The water filters were initially hard to find, but found the Insignia NS-WF26SS0-1 [bestbuy.com] is an exact replacement.
My local electricity rate is so high that the cost to purchase this fridge is about 2.x years of electricity to power it. This fridge uses 715 kwh per year per its energy guide. Our rate for 1kwh is $0.35 off peak, $0.5x peak hours and $0.65 summer peak hours. Man I'm just whining about the high electricity rate not the fridge.
I bought it. Let's face it, there is no prestige in owning a big name brand fridge. Sure the more expensive brands may be pretty but they are littered with problems and bad reviews. I bought this because the sale was great, the reviews were above average, it is a side by side (my wife has back problems so french was not ideal), the dispenser is outside the fridge, and the front was flat/flush which IMO looks really nice. Delivery tomorrow.

I love their stuff - anyone have a review of their refrigerators? I have had nothing but great experienxes with their A/C, Dehumidifer, and chest freezer, but this seems like a new space for them

I like a good deal on price but a 2 year warranty on something not serviceable is too expensive for me. If it had a 5 year warranty Id accept it as disposable at his price, do like the competition and the side door look cool.

I appreciate you sharing your electricity rates as I am always curious how mine compare. Ours have ALMOST doubled, but are NOWHERE near your costs. I gave ya a HELPFUL rating because I was and am disappointed at the not helpful ratings given. Thanks again!

What I didn't say in my original comment was, in case other's rate is also high, do consider the cost to run the fridge when choosing to buy. For me, if another model uses 100kwh less per year, that's more than $40 per year of savings on electricity bill.

Try Whirlpool, WRS321 or similar models. We were constricted by height rather than depth or width. But be forewarned when you see 32" width/depth it's usually means a 21 cubic foot storage capacity.

I bought their U-Shape 12,000 BTU A/C for $300 recently.... hoping it will keep the house cooler for cheaper during peak rates hours this summer.
