It's funny, I was wondering if I would come across a HGD after reading Combo52(John L.) comments in

Hi Phil, I think the one in your link was about the largest, @ about 19 cubic feet that GE built, The TF HGD refs were not made as long and I don't think I ever saw one larger than about 15CF. The other really cool ref with HGD that GE built were the Americana bottom freezer models with the counter-top in the middle.
Ge never made a SXS with HGD, which is really too bad when you consider how many thousands of defrost heaters burn out in GE SXSs every week in this country. John L. |

That IS really interesting, that they never made a SXS with HGD.
Americana freezer? If I saw one, I probably didn't realize and certainly didn't know it was/wasn't HGD, but now that you made me aware, that makes them all the better, right? You're currently using one of these Americana refrigerators and /or freezers, aren't you? Is it an HGD Americana freezer? I'd easily enjoy using a GE wall fridge and freezer, but not in a primary kitchen design. I'm curious... how well do these keep foods consistently cold (no warm spots?) and besides parts being scarce(?), any caveats? Sorry, maybe I need to do a search...thanks for any comments and replying here to the maximum HGD fridge size. |
