Samsung Fridge Questions

For those of you with the Samsung fridge, what colors are your preference??

We went out looking yesterday and they only had the SS in stock and my wife is not enthralled with SS claiming the ones in our house are just too difficult to keep clean.

The website shows a finish call SS Platinum that supposedly resist fingerprints and the such but we've been unable to find one to actually look at. Also, I'm concerned that the big bulk of a SS fridge won't blend into our coach interior and an actually thinking black might be an option.

Second question: I know absorption units do not like running off level. How sensitive (if at all) are compressor based units??

Thanks for any thoughts.

    Samsung is an excellent choice. When considering which one to get be sure to measure for depth of the box as you don't want it sticking out in the room. I purchased a counter depth model which has a 24" deep box verses 31" allowing it to fit in your entrance door and fit your cabinet better. Most standard refers stick into the room to far. Samsung will also work with a modified sine wave inverter with no problems as incoming power is rectified to DC voltage and every thing runs on DC voltage. They are very efficient and draw less power than older units. I have the stainless steel double door 23.5 cu. ft. model with ice and water through the door and love it.

    Our rig has SS which I believe is pretty traditional, but I didn't want that for my garage. I ordered a black Samsung and it took an extra 4 weeks to get delivered so they might be phasing out.

    Samsung makes an awesome black stainless as well, but wasn't available in the model we got.

    We went with the SS and believe the platinum would have been a better choice. As you identified, keeping fingerprints off the SS surface is a never ending battle. The platinum is still a silver color, just a few shades darker. I actually think it is better looking than SS and since it's a painted surface it is easier to maintain.

    No problem off level... much the same system as in a car. I went black (not Samsung) and our interior is cherry. Looks good to me.

    Sorry but this is the best picture I have... mainly of the child safety lock for the doors.
