I bought a new manufactured home with a refrigerator included. I put the Whirlpool refrigerator in storage and purchased a new side-by-side for the home. Now I have an addition on the home to put the Whirlpool refrigerator as a back up. The refrigerator is two years old. The problem is the factory forgot to install Freon in the unit. The refrigerator runs but does not get cold at all. In fact the unit will get warm. The dealer where I got the home will not do anything about it. He is only responsible for the home itself not the appliances.

There is no damage of any kind. The appliance is brand new and nver been used until I tried to use it. It was never tried (turned on)while still at the dealer.

Purchased a lemon of a refrigerator. 6 services calls later (delayed for parts for 6 months of excuses, mis-ordering the wrong parts --- 3 times by totally incompetent A&E service techs and its still not fix. After 2 weeks the frost build up in the freezer looks like a snow storm came in! We now have heaters in our freezers , yet the problem is still NOT resolved!

the last tech stated NOTHING MORE THEY CAN DO and stated though he cannot say it....sounds like a MFG defect! WE are stuck.... and whirlpool must be losing millions with A & E as there service company. Frustrated and stuck with this piece of junk!

I bought a Whirlpool refrigerator on Sat, 10/4/08. They delivered it, changed the handles to the other side and the door doesn't close unless you slam it.It's because of the latch on the right side of the fridge that turns the light on and off. The Model number of thi 21 Cu.Ft. top mount refrigerator is ET1PHKXPT, black.

I really needed this refrigerator, cause I can't afford a more expensive one. I had Appliance Direct come back out and take it back. I don't want it if I have to remember to slam the door every time.
