    I watched your video before I bought same fridge hoping that mine will be fine. Nop same problem as yours and service guy came to my house and after inspection of freezer door he said. That is the way how they built them. Nothing wrong. He said right track is primary with rollers and left one is secondary without rollers and I should not be opening freezer doors from the left side. Before I had sasmsung with no problems so I thought I’m buying something better

    I learned the hard way. my Kitchenaid freezer on the bottom frig was a total POS. I've never had so many problems with an appliance. Stay far away from Kitchenaid.

    If it had cosmetic issues, should’ve rejected it and request another one. Kitchen aid is the best out there hands down

    Best by or compared to what? Its a middle class income family refrigerator. WOLF and or SUB ZERO are the best you would want for any upper kitchen and any upper class family would have. Kitchen aid is a whirlpool refrigerator, that is who makes them and they only have a few cheap add-ons like drawer liners as you can see don't fit and a couple gimmicks and maybe a longer warranty which they just put in the price. Otherwise they are identical motors, interiors etc.

    6.2LTRV8 Thanks for the history lesson but I already knew all that. Without going with non main stream options kitchen aid is a very high sought after product. Whirlpool also makes Maytag which makes high quality items.

    My understanding is the KRFC is the counter-depth version and the KRFF is the standard-depth version of the refrigerator. I believe the doors themselves are the same, regardless of which depth cabinet they are attached to. As such, I am betting it is possible to get a KRFC version with the same quality control issues. A shame really, as KitchenAid is a subsidiary of Whirlpool and pitched as a step up from the Whirlpool line; the fit and finish should correspondingly be a step up.

    Sorry I didn't actually answer your question about the door popping noise- no I never got a solution. Basically it's on a decent 5 yr warranty and I'm hoping the door tracka break from daily usage so I can get a new set of drawer tracka

    Seems like the ones with bells and whistles are really sounding the alarms to the questionable workmanship & quality issues, these days. Im totally okay plopping down 4k for a refrigerator, but if i have to fix it and or replace it, might as well buy a 1k refrigerator if they are all crap...

    Good ol American quality. I wanted their 5 door/drawer model, which is a fantastic looking unit but it’s considered probably the crappiest fridge out there. Saw the same insulation and poor fit as you showed on a floor model. My new house is coming with this garbage..gotta see if I can swap it out somehow

    that's not glue... it's plastic protection film that is stuck to the stainless to protect it. It is removed (probably by your delivery man) after delivery. Sheesh. Razor blade!

    Appreciate that but the protection film is blue and yes when peeled off, alot of it gets caught in the creases which I use a a plastic scraper to remove - very easy. This stuff was brown and extremely hard - similar to construction adhesive - it could not be scratched off
