Beautiful look and fit

Overall, the installation was easy and a good fit beneath cabinets. The interior is very spacious and very easy to adjust shelves and door storage trays to accommodate all manner of containers and food storage. The digital features of setting upper and lower temps, ice maker took a good 4 days to fill up in the beginning but no problems, and the overall it's well built.
Two items of concern, first, upon initial installation and during the first few weeks of use the largest shelf which crisper drawers are mounted to dipping the middle when loaded (all big jug stuff, milk, OJ, creamer, etc.) thus causing crisper drawers to make contact with fridge interior and very rough to open (and scrape off plastic guide material) as they were out of alignment. After poking around and inspecting underneath the front face of the large shelf, crisper drawers removed, a metal c-channel stabilizer was found underneath the plastic shelf face (this runs perpendicular to the drawers). Close inspection revealed that the metal c-channel had shifted to one side as it is not exactly the same length as the width of the shelf. Once the c-channel was shifted into correct position (made contact with each side of the refrigerator under the shelf), the shelf remained stable no matter what was placed on it , and the crisper draws work flawlessly. To shift the c-channel support, make sure crisper drawers are removed and then you can manipulate the position of the metal, gently apply upward pressure to the underside of the shelf to lessen the friction on the c-channel, then gently slide the c-channel left or right until it slips between the shelf and the shelf brackets attached to the sides of the fridge. Due to the amount of play, try to center the c-channel as best you can. With weight placed back on the shelf seems to be holding the channel in place, 2 months later. Suspect its not capable of being over loaded anyway but at least it can be fixed simply.
Item 2 is more of a nuisance than anything, even with the fridge leveled up, the right door does not stay open, it slowly closes back on you and it is annoying. Probably another adjustment on the door to be figured out.
