This Midea counter depth French door fridge stands out for its roomy layout, dual ice maker, and a design that keeps the water and ice dispensers outside the main compartment. The exterior dispenser setup is described as more hygienic and less prone to mold or buildup, though it can be awkward to clean and the water dispenser requires opening the door. The biggest cautions are temperature consistency and long term reliability, with reports of units running warm or failing near the warranty period. The handleless doors also make opening it feel awkward. A warranty and a thermometer seem worth considering.

No. The water and ice dispensers are on the outer side, so you do not need to open the fridge door to use them. That layout is also described as more hygienic and less prone to mold or buildup, though it can be harder to clean.
A 5-year extended warranty is recommended for this model because there is concern about long-term reliability. One comment specifically advises investing in the extended warranty after a prior Midea freezer failed near the end of its warranty period.
It can be inconsistent. One report says two separate units struggled to hold the set 34°F temperature and often sat in the low 40s, so using a fridge thermometer or temp gauge is a good idea to verify actual performance.
It is handleless, which can make it awkward to open because you have to reach up or down for the top or bottom groove. A middle hand groove would be more ergonomic, especially for different user heights.
Yes. One comment says Lowe's regular price is $1,399, not $1,999, so the advertised markdown can look larger than the real discount. That same buyer also got a $300 price match back after purchasing it.

Exchanged it for a second one thinking I had a bad unit and it performed the exact same. I gave the first unit six days and the second one seven days. I returned it for another brand.
Be careful with this unit. Definitely get a temp gauge in there to verify temps. My new one feels cooler and is always consistently mid-30s now.
It has no handles, usually has handle/groove on the top and the bottom.
Makes it awkward to open since depending in height, you have to reach down or up.
Would make more sense to have groove for your hand in the middle.
