Rated 1 out of 5 by Sdvtn62 from Look elsewhere I had this model for four years and there is a known problem with the freezer compartment wiring harness being too short thus breaking the wires rendering the ice maker unusable. This is ridiculous because based upon the layout of my kitchen, this door cannot even fully open to maximum width. Replacing the door with the wiring harness is the fix which is $1000+ labor.

Rated 1 out of 5 by RonR from Terrible Customer Service We purchased this refrigerator from Lowes. Upon delivery, unpacking and setting up we noticed a missing shelf in the freezer compartment. Lowes tried to obtain a replacement shelf within two days of delivery. They were told by Whirlpool one would be sent to us. Upon Lowes follow up with Whirlpool, they were told nothing was on file about the missing shelf and one couldn't be sent. Lowes asked the Whirpool representative to speak to her supervisor. She told Lowes that she didn't have a supervisor. We are trying to elevate this to the next level. This is totally unacceptable. We have purchased many Whirlpool appliances over the years. Needless to say this will be the last.

Rated 2 out of 5 by momwhls from Disappointed in ultra small capacity My family surprised me with a new side by side stainless with icemaker after my husband was diagnosed with a terminal illness and we had to move to a smaller home. The top shelf in fridge is pretty useless because the vents cant be blocked and it freezes everything, its also very loud. The freezer only comes with 2 shelves even though there is space for more. The whole thing is super tiny and not built very smartly for a small unit. The digital touch screen for water and ice is very temperamental and the water flow is super slow to fill a simple bottle .

Rated 2 out of 5 by Christine from It’s okay It’s loud and the freezer is really skinny. It’d be too small for a family or even 2.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Owen from Faulty wire harness design leads to costly repair! I bought this refrigerator (WRSA71CIHZ) about three years ago, and when the ice maker stopped working a few months ago I learned that it was because of a faulty design to the wire harness under the freezer door that can only be repaired by replacing the entire freezer door, which costs $1,000! Refrigerators are supposed to last for many years, not just three. It is unacceptable for a refrigerator's poor design to cause such an expensive repair after only three years.
