What reviewers say

Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.

GE Profile 27.9 cu. ft. Smart 4-Door French-Door Refrigerator with Door In Door

One whitelisted lab test qualifies: Reviewed (USA Today) hands-on rates the GE Profile PVD28BYNFS a gorgeous high-end French-door fridge, praising its full-width LED backlit interior, separate flex drawer with its own temperature controls, and class-leading crisper humidity retention (0.07 vs 0.2 g/hr for an average fridge). Its faults are minor: runs about 1°F warmer than ideal, slightly below-average usable capacity, and about $20/year higher energy cost. RTINGS was JS-only and excluded, so no cross-source comparison was possible. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)

Praised: Full-width LED backlit interior looks luxurious and removes harsh shadows; Separate flex drawer with its own temperature controls, among the best tested; Crisper retains humidity over twice as well as a typical fridge (0.07 vs 0.2 g/hr).

Flagged: Runs about 1°F warmer than the tester would like; Slightly less usable capacity than the average French-door fridge; Energy costs about $20/year more than average.
