I don’t comment on videos but because I am a huge Cafe brand fan I watched your video. Very in-depth review of the products you have. I have the same fridge , the double oven with gas, and the microwave. We just remodeled our kitchen and I added the double drawer dishwasher, toaster oven and the coffee drip machine. I have been made whole. The appliances are a whole conversation with my guests. They are not only gorgeous but worked well, no problem 2 years in.

Best REAL review I've seen in awhile! Thanks for the help guys. Made my decision a lot easier. :)

Loved your in-depth video on the series. We just purchased the Cafe fridge and dishwasher about a week ago replacing some SS Electrolux ones. Great thing about the white matte finish is that it does not show any water marks or finger prints. The only thing I would mention is to make sure u match your whites. My kitchen walls are painted BM Swiss Coffee which is a creamer white than the appliances so that was a bit of a surprise when it was delivered. My dark grey and beige cabinets makes it all work but it took some time to get over the clash of the whites.

I’m pretty amazed. As far as I can tell, this is filling a spot in a market for those who want something nicer for their home but can’t afford Viking, etc. You get a lot of what those really hi end brands have (such as French door wall stoves) without the insane price tag. I’m planning to get the model that has no dispenser on the outside (which makes the front of the fridge covered in water stains) and the ice in the freezer where it belongs. by the way, for the oven these are convection ovens which are the choice in bakeries. I used to use one when I worked for a cookie shop in college in the 80’s. “Air Fryer” is just marketing for an electric oven with something that circulates the air to keep the temperature even throughout the stove.

@JakeandHeather

9 ай бұрын

It's funny that you mention the AIR FRYER marketing feature. That was my exact initial thought too! My hunch was that a "counter top" air fryer was essentially a mini convection oven! Funny that you compare these to viking (as we had as well!), we recently experienced a month of use with viking & subzero appliances and to our surprise, we much preferred our CAFE by GE appliances over the viking and subzero variants. I think this CAFE line by GE really punches above its weight class when it comes to price! Thank you so much for watching!! Have you received your fridge yet?

Thanks. I just ordered the cafe French door single oven. Now I want that beverage fridge and the dishwasher intrigued me that you can wash only one level. Very informative. 👍

Love your thorough review and renovation! We got the Cafe fridge a few years ago. It worked great for a month, then it barely worked and the lights were dimmed. We live in St Thomas, US Virgin Islands, so getting a GE tech to the house is not easy as the only one lives on St Croix, thirty miles away and only comes to our island once a week. The tech was really nice and ordered a part. The fridge was stuck in Shabbat mode. This was during the latter part of covid, but there was a nation wide shortage of parts. Needless to say, it all took about a month, which required us to live out of a cooler, since Shabbat mode is not intended for long periods. The mode just takes the least amount of energy to keep fridge cool before returning to regular mode. Nice feature unless you get stuck in it. We are now ready to renovate our kitchen and plan on getting the other Cafe appliances as well. I want to stick with GE for service purposes as most other higher end brands are not easily serviced in the Virgin Islands.

It's complicated but Shabbos it the same as Shabbat. Sabbath Mode allows you to open and close the refrigerator or freezer doors without activating interior lights, sounds or other controls. While your fridge is in Sabbath Mode, water filter status lights are disabled and temperatures cannot be adjusted. I am a Jew and didn't know how it related to a fridge. Mostly Orthodox Jews would use this feature.

Hi there. Great review on the oven!! I have been looking at this oven for quite a while online but I can't seem to get a clear answer for this question. When baking in convection mode can you set the oven temp to random temps (say 304F or 347F) and not just in 25° increments?

So if you are changing the temp using the knob on the front of the stove, you can change by increments of 25. 300/325/350/375 ect.

Nice walkthrough of the Cafe line of appliances. The only thing I missed from this presentation was the refrigerator's icemaking.

@JakeandHeather

It unfortunately does not make craft or round ice. It makes what I would call "normal refrigerator ice" hahaha. Also because the ice maker is in the door of the fridge, the ice capacity is not very large. If throwing a party I would recommend grabbing a bag of ice to keep in the freezer, which is never a problem bc the freezer on this fridge is HUGE. Hope that helps!

I don’t know if you got an answer to your question about this. But Shabbos mode refers to the Jewish Sabbath. Observant Jews aren’t allowed to fiddle with electronic items on the sabbath. Therefore some modern appliances come with features that turn off automatically or turn on automatically without manual adjustment by the owner. This is a very desirable feature for people who observe the Jewish sabbath strictly.

Does the autofill feature recognize if there is ice in the glass already?

@JakeandHeather

Жыл бұрын

it does recognize that there is ice in the glass. I've noticed it will sometimes stop short of filling to the top if ice is present, which can be a tad frustrating. After over a year it has only over-flowed the glass once! and that is using the feature at LEAST 6-8 times a day

Great question! Working on a video as we speak of a 2 year update since we first posted this video answering all the questions we’ve gotten in the comments. Should be live soon! I will add this to the list. Without looking at it I can’t recall any issues with staining. I’ll take a closer look and address it in the video! Thanks for watching!!

Please help me, I just purchased my refrigerator. I haven’t had the fridge for 24 hours,it’s making a LOUD noise when I open the freezer. The noise rings where the ice is stored. I checked the ice no overflow. Please help.!!!!!!!!

How is the ice maker?

@JakeandHeather

A bit slow to dispense ice, but never had any real issues. It’s easy to remove the entire ice bucket from inside the fridge if you want to dump into say a cooler. Crushed ice works well

I can say that the amount of ice it holds is small. If you are filling up multiple to-go cups with ice or trying to use it all day it will run out. I wouldn't rely on it supplying ice for parties or gathering larger than 4-5 people. But we are okay with that sacrifice considering how much space is in the fridge and freezer

*shabbas mode* also known as Shabbat, basically shuts off the automatic lights and motion senses

You absolutely should have brand loyalty to Finish. They are the only brand left that uses the thing (sulfites? Phosphates? Cannot remember) that everyone else took out for the environment. May be good for the environment but won’t break up your food. I had a Bosch and they had the same recommendation etched on the door. Now it’s possible Cascade has repented and put the offending ingredient back in because so many reviewers recommend it.

It’s phosphates. I believe Miele is also a good one. doesn’t have the dumb “contains no phosphates” label on it and reviewers are amazed at how beautiful the dishes came out. It’s how powdered cascade used to come out too. (Miss a simple box of powdered detergent. So much cheaper.) A dishwasher repairman is the one the clued me in to this.

Sabbath mode shuts the interior light off when you open the door. On the sabbath, you’re not supposed to make things “work” as the sabbath is a 24 hour period of rest. So by the light being off, you’re not causing the fridge to give you light which means making the fridge work for you.

@@JakeandHeather only the interior lights. the fridge will cycle as it needs to for cooling, as usual. the same applies to the sabbath mode on your oven. sabbath mode disables the interior light of your oven so it won't go on when you open the oven door. btw, thanks for your detailed review. my new home has Cafe appliance package and i was reluctant of it but am less so after seeing your video. so, truly, thank you!

Too bad you put the beverage Center next to the dishwasher. Most refrigerator manuals say not to install them next to any heat source like ovens or dishwashers (because of the hot water). I guess it just makes it harder for them to maintain the cooler temperatures.

@JakeandHeather

Yes, that is an excellent point!! I built a cabinet “wall” to help mitigate that issue as much as we could. I’m sure it probably gets warmer than ambient temperature when the dishwasher is running but we only run it once or every other day.

Nope, no microwave. After living in the van for a year we got pretty used to not using a microwave. We have space in the laundry room or garage to add one if we ever feel we absolutely need to. We really don’t miss it at all now that we have a gas stovetop

I have read many break apart especially in the freezer sections after a few months.
