Hard to argue this isn't a very good price for a side x side, but a couple notes. There are A LOT of complaints about the fridge being damaged during shipping. Also, as far as I'm aware, Hamilton Beach does not manufacture refrigerators. That said, I'm assuming this is probably a licensed rebrand of some Chinese brand such as Haier or Midea.
How many sub 550 side by sides have ice makers\water dispensers?
Fair point, but I think this is an important consideration vs a comparably priced top-freezer/bottom-fridge unit which is often compatible with an ice maker accessory.

Would be a good for garage or if you have a secondary living space downstairs with its own kitchen. I would pair it with a cheap counter top nugget ice maker.

I've done extensive research and have discovered that Frigidaire is the most reliable refrigerator you can buy. Spend the extra $150 and save yourself from expensive repairs down the road.

You don't want one anyway, especially in a refrigerator at this price point.
