Hi,

We are about to replace our 28 year old Kenmore with a new refrigerator.
An ice maker is a given. I've looked at similar looking refrigerators
that range from $800 to $2500. I would assume the more expensive units
are better built but otherwise don't have a clue what I am paying for.

Thanks,
Gary

Just avoid Maytag. They are the noisiest on the market. Try to get an
Energystar model of any kind.
When we moved last year we bought a GE Profile with in-door ice/water
dispenser. We are in Nevada and these hot summer days it sure is convenient
and energy conserving to not open up the doors for cubes or water. Also,
ours has a big slideout freezer on the bottom and split doors on top. It
gives us slide out shelves; shelves that tip up to make room for large
items; room for the big soda bottle and three separate pull out drawers for
meat, produce veggies etc.
