We're looking at a 28 cu ft Whirlpool and the interior is much different than my 16 year old Whirlpool Gold. My wife is fussy and she pointed out the shelving was not as good and I noticed the fridge door storage was "cheaper". I don't remember that "Gold" was an upgrade but I can certainly notice the difference. We may end up with this one but we're still looking.

Turns out the Bosch my wife was looking at was 22 cu ft, I don't think that's adequate, especially after V-Tails post.

Here's what Appliance Brad says, which is repeated in just about every thread about fridges:

Any of the Whirlpool brands have been solid. So Amana, Whirlpool, Maytag or KitchenAid.

And friends don't let friends buy LG or Samsung

My appliance repairman said the same and to shop price. His shop price comment based on my desire for a durable, basic fridge. I don't need bluetooth, see-through doors, or 4 different ice options so he might have a different opinion about high-end models.

Loved my Whirlpool: French doors, nice lighting, glass shelves, middle produce drawer, lower freezer.

Better organization options in the freezer would have been nice though.

I think it was this one

Just replaced a KitchenAid with another KitchenAid. Waited a month for delivery and only came in stainless. Didn’t even think about other brands.

Thanks for all the replies, helped a lot. My wife went to a smaller, contractor/design store and decided on a Frigidaire Gallery, French Door, 26.8 cu ft. She felt comfortable with the information they gave her and had references from others. Happy wife, happy life!!

Update: wife decided on the same size, same make but the standard, not Gallery model.
