I had problems with the plastic hinges that hold the door shut. We have replaced 3 times now in 6 years. Also don't try and fix yourself (Cheap part) because the computer will need to be reset by a technician. Other then that it is reliable. Also the water dispenser is not that cold, it is only at the temperature of the fridge if the water is stored long enough in the fridge. The top of the freezer also dents.
It is wells set out fridge that never seems to be full considering we have a family of 5.
Plastic hinges, temeperature of water.

I have had this fridge for nearly 3 years. I love the look and size of the fridge, I love the water and ice feature, the only thing I don't like is the freezer drawers. If anything drops out of the fridge onto the top of the freezer drawer it dents. I have about 3 dents in the top of the drawer. Although Choice recommended this fridge I did purchase the extended warranty because there were quite a few bad reviews here.
Water, Ice, French Doors, Depth of Fridge - so many are so deep they take up too much room.
Design of the freezer drawers and the wine rack isn't strong enough for 4 bottles of wine. They fall down the back of the fridge.

Cheap plastic door hinges broke within the year. Now there is a leek from the ice bucket I think?? Expensive and not all that reliable. If you were considering this fridge, then think again and do some research into a much more reliable fridge for the money you are paying. The overall look is nice but a disappointing item that I regret buying.
The water dispenser at the front and the overall look of it
Most things. Broken door clips and leaking ice compartment

Plastic door hinge locks break easily, ice machine broke down just outside of warranty. Very thirsty on electricity. For the proce of this fridge you would expect more than cheep plastic hinge parts (very dodgy) I will try to sell this fridge and go for a more reliable, cheeper to run version. Ice makers are a gimick that are not worth thr trouble
Looks good
Poor quality control

The fridge is supposed to be built for Australian conditions however you have to open the drawer freezer to access the ice letting heaps of cold air escape! In summer that is not good! The water comes out of the dispenser too slowly. And the after sale service is very poor. My new fridge has rusted they are not interested. All up I am extremely unimpressed with the fridge and if I had my time again I would have bought a fridge better suited to our climate. I can't wait to have to replace this one.
it is silver.

This fridge has been in our household for 4 months now and it is fabulous. The compartments in the doors are great and the drawers pull out easily - in fact they glide out. The shelves are large and can be moved to a height that appeals to the user. It makes no noise, and unlike some stainless fridges, I can still use magnets on the front to stick up notes. The water cooler and ice machine work really well. I like that I can have the water dispensed at different temperatures.
quiet, large, stainless finish, door alarm, water dispenser
Because of the drawers in the freezer limit the size of the items put in there. ie can't put a really big fish in there!

We purchased this firdge as part of our kitchen reno and it looks great, functions well and stores alot of food and drink. The down side however are finger prints are still a big issue, with three kids I find myself wiping it down several time sa day, also the ice doe shave a funny taste and will become one big ice cube with the smallest amount of moisture (as in the kids didnt full close the freezer drawer).
Looks great, very quick european looking too.
The fingerprints......

I have had my Fisher Paykel French Door fridge for almost two years andhave recommended it to all my friends. it has a flexible layout, a terrific iced water feature that doesn't steal space from inside the fridge door, and a nifty little deli tray. Probably the thing I love about it most is its elegant, sleek styling - none of those big heavy American looking handles. Fisher & Paykel really know a thing or two about design. Wouldn't have anything else.
Looks beautiful, great, flexibile layout inside - completely reliable

Purchased in Feb 2011 from Retravision in Mittagong. They delivered and set it up and its been perfect ever since.
We have a family of 7 adults who come and go at all different times and this fridge has never let us down. Ice maker and water chiller are great for summer.Fridge and freezer sections provide way more storage space than first perceived. No noises, no vibrations. Highly recommended.
Quiet, seems to re-chill very quickly, lots of space and easy to clean.
Having to open both fridge doors to access meat and veg drawers.

We purchased this fridge in 2009 and haven't had any issues with it. The fridge is huge and is very versatile! Our friends comment on it, especially the smart ice maker! I love how I don't need to remember to fill up ice trays any more!!
I like the smart ice maker and the space of the fridge. I like how you can fit a whole casserole in there without transferring the dish to a smaller container. I also like the bottle rack for soft drinks and how there is a ledge on the bottom of the fridge compartment so if something falls off the shelf it doesn't usually smash
The corner of the handles are really sharp, I have scratched myself numerous times when cleaning the outside of the fridge and my two year old has knocked his head on the corner too.

I had my heart set on this fridge from a design point of view, and planned our kitchen around the dimensions. I was very concerned after reading the number of negative reviews on this website that I may end up with a very expensive dud. Thankfully, we have not had any issues with our fridge - it has a fabulous amount of space for a family of 4 living in a remote area. The layout is terrific and ergonomic (I am a physiotherapist) I have not however, had the water dispenser connected as our water supply is not reliable in terms of quality
Appearance, layout and capacity

Had a few teething problems in the beginning with packaging left in behind freezer drawer. There are three problems with this product, one: the alarm for the freezer drawer being left open is not sensitive enough. If the drawer is left 1cm open, which children do all the time, the alarm will not activate and the freezer defrosts. Two: does not make ice quick enough. Three: Not enough space in freezer.

All this aside, I would definitely purchase this product again.
The design
Freezer too small, Ice maker not quick enough.
