GE GSHS6HGDSS

GE GSHS6HGDSS

Side-By-Side RANK: DISCONTINUED

The GE GSHS6HGDSS is a quality side-by-side refrigerator ranked at #10 on our list simply because the energy efficiency and internal temperature consistency – the major focal points when buying a refrigerator – are quite underperformed in comparison to the 9 models we reviewed so far.

Nevertheless, this model is an affordable refrigerator, so if you’re on a budget, you can opt for this GE unit that comes with easy-to-read controls and great features. The exterior is stainless steel, while the interior is organized and clean. The moisture retention in the drawer for vegetables is one of the best features this refrigerator has; your vegetable will remain delicious and crisp longer than average.
