I'm getting this fridge/freezer but looking at the star rating and reviews has got me worried... How reliable is this?
4 answers
Looks wise it’s a beautiful fridge! Mine happened to be a lemon and based on my experience with Samsung I would say stay away from Samsung!
They were not willing to help at all.
Damn I know I love the look of it but I can't get out of it now ..... It's getting brought for me, so even with the warranty they didn't help, now I am scared ... don't like the sound of it at all, hopefully mines good :/
Hey how’s your fridge? Is it very quiet?

The fridge section of mine works well but the fruit/vegetable crisper does not keep things fresh. They become wrinkly and soft within days. Sorry but I would not recommend this fridge.

Hi Jo,
Thanks for your reply. I have the manual already. Your friendly delivery guy, Gary, came back and fixed what I thought was a stuck wheel adjuster and freed it. The fridge is now levelled. If there were more delivery guys like Gary, this world would be a better place.
Cheers,
Allen A.

I am having the same problem
dino9937asked
Hi, ive just bought one of these. ive noticed when i open the door theres almost like a fan type noise that runs for a bit, abut 10 seconds or so, then the noise goes away. when i close the door it comes back on for same amount of time then goes away. is anyone else experience this issue/sound?
5 answers
I haven't encountered any such noticeable fan sound in my fridge, but occasionally overnight sounds like ice cubes falling into something, even though I'm not using the ice cube tray.
The thermostat on modern fridges will activate the fan and compressor as soon as the fridge's electronics detect that the door has been opened.
I don’t think that’s the case. As the problem is intermittent.

Marek Jasieniakasked
Can the doors opening angle be limited to 90 degrees?
4 answers
AdaSamsung
Hey Marek, are you enquiring of whether you are able to limit the fridge door's opening to a maximum of 90 degrees? Any further information will help clarify our understanding.
Jo
Samsung AU
Hi Jo,
Yes, that's correct. The fridge is in an enclosure and a wall on the opening side is long and interferes with the fridge/freezer door. Therefore I need to limit the fridge opening to a maximum of 90 degrees.
Looking forward to hearing from you
Cheers,
Marek
PS
I have a photo that describes clearly the problem but I could not paste it here
AdaSamsung
Thanks for letting us know, Marek. We recommend for you to use for example, padding if you would like to avoid the doors from hitting the wall in the enclosure as the refrigerator's doors are unable to be adjusted to a limit of 90 degrees.

Does it meant to get condensation in fridge part meaning slighty damp with wster
3 answers
Hi Tracie, mine doesn’t. Although on very hot days, the clear plastic vegetable drawer may get a little cloudy if I have the fridge door open for a little too long. But I never get condensation to the extent that it feels wet in the fridge or vegetable drawer. If yours is doing that I’d suggest you call Samsung service. Hope this helps.
No water settles in the bottom of the freezer department

Does anyone else hear excessive fan noise from this model? It almost sounds like the dishwasher is in when its cycling. I'm trying to decide if this is normal or if I'm being sensitive to noise.
