GE Consumer and Industrial spans the globe as an industry leader in major appliance, lighting and integrated industrial equipment, systems and services. Providing solutions for commercial, industrial and residential use in more than 100 countries, GE Consumer and Industrial uses innovative technologies and ''ecomagination,'' a GE initiative to aggressively bring to market new technologies that help customers and consumers meet pressing environmental challenges, to deliver comfort, convenience and electrical protection and control. General Electric brings imagination to work. Cooking double portions and freezing for future meals is an excellent way to save time on busy weeknights, but it fills up a freezer quickly and makes specific foods difficult to locate. With the new GE Profile Double?Drawer Bottom?Freezer Refrigerator (available January 2008), organizing the refrigerator will be easier than ever, thanks to the two freezer drawers featuring deep storage space. Now busy home cooks can easily store ? and later find ? frozen foods in a hurry. The new design features a top?drawer freezer compartment for everyday use and more frequently accessed items, with a full?width drawer. In here, frozen fruit is easily accessible for a quick smoothie and prepared pizzas are ready to go into the oven for a quick meal. Underneath, a deeper bottom drawer stores larger items, such as a whole turkey, larger cuts of meat and bags of frozen vegetables. Both drawers feature contemporary door pulls that complement the sleek design of the fresh?food compartment, with its upper French doors and hidden hinges. Beveled upper and lower edges look elegant. The new refrigerators offer the convenience features GE Profile models are known for and are available with or without a water dispenser. Models with the precision-measuring PreciseFill exterior water dispenser will feature color LCD controls and brilliant, energy?efficient LED lighting. PreciseFill lets consumers indicate how much water they want ? from one ounce to ten cups ? which is then dispensed accurately and automatically.

Time with product: 2 Months

Strengths: looks pretty

Weaknesses: one door must be slammed shut

Summary: I would just like to warn you about this frig, which is the same base design as the PGSS5NFXSS except for the added water dispenser on the door. It has the same problem as the one I bought, except for the opposite door having the closing problem. I tried the PGSS5PJXSS at Best Buy to verify it.I bought the expensive GE 25 cu ft PGSS5NFXSS stainless frig with french doors and two bottom freezer drawers for my new home. The right door has to be slammed to close it when the left door is already closed. Whenever I go back to open the frig I notice it is sticking open, since it sticks at two points. It is a design flaw that two service techs have verified. I have been battling GE for more than a month to give me a different model/type frig that actually works with no luck so far. The customer service department goes through the motions but will not acknowlege the flaw and do the right thing. The best I can hope for is to get a replacement of the same model with the same problem.Be sure to test your GE french door frig in a showroom before making such a big purchase or you may regret it, like me. No other brands of french door frigs have this problem. The Maytag french door models, also sold under Whirlpool and KitchenAid brands, have a good reputation. I have only actually tested the KitchenAid doors which close with no effort at all.
