GE 18.2 Cubic Foot White Top Refrigerator Review
More often than not when you step food into an
appliance shop looking for your next refrigerator, they are going to point
you in the direction of the most expensive and newest refrigerators
imaginable – fridges that are so loaded with features that you are almost
overwhelmed with the different choices, as the number of different products
has only expanded in recent years to have technology that the original
refrigerator manufacturers never could have guessed would now be installed
in modern fridges.
The GE 18.2 Cubic Foot White Top Freezer
Refrigerator however, is an example of a regular old refrigerator that is
going to be good enough for most households and comes at an affordable
price. It isn’t loaded with features like many other refrigerator
(especially GE) models, but it is a refrigerator nevertheless, and for many,
that’s all it needs to be.

Pros
The GE Top Freezer Refrigerator is about as basic
as you can get. At full price, the GE Top Freezer Refrigerator is less than
$500, making it extremely affordable and more than decent for households
that simply need a refrigerator on a budget. The adjustable storage shelves
are useful, and the refrigerator – though not silent – is not very loud and
made to be as quiet as it can be for the price. The freezer is on the top
and easy to access, and the 18.2 cubic feet of space is going to be enough
for most families.
Cons
The GE Top Freezer Refrigerator is not attractive.
It’s white, simple, and about as “not flashy” as you can possibly find. It’s
not “ugly” by any means, but it is certainly not going to complement the
décor of your kitchen space.
As with most inexpensive models, though they claim
to be quiet, and have their own “quiet feature,’ they usually are not. GE
Top Freezer Refrigerator make more noise than most of the expensive models,
and can be almost disruptive in quiet households.
The drawers of the GE Top Freezer Refrigerator are
also somewhat iffy, not easily sliding in and out. There is, however, a
great deal of room to place your large items, which is useful, but the
drawers are still a problem for many people.
Overall Impressions
If you are expecting to get anything other than a
decent refrigerator from the GE Top Freezer Refrigerator, you are going to
be sadly mistaken. It is made for those on a budget, and though it is
reliable, it is still not designed for décor or features. The GE Top Freezer
Refrigerator is still a great deal for those on a budget, and makes an
excellent fridge for furnishing things like duplexes and apartments where
you may not want to give the most high tech fridges to your tenants.
