Whirlpool WRT134TFDM Review

A strong customer record for good performance and reliable functioning, make the Whirlpool WRT134 series an attractive, relatively low cost, option for individuals or couples looking for a small top freezer.

Refrigerator

The refrigerator section of the Whirlpool WRT134 series has approximately 10.4 CU ft of space. While this is not a huge amount of space, it is suitable for the average needs of one or two people, living in a small apartment, provided they do not need lots of space or bulk shop.

The refrigerator section features two, full width, shelves that are height adjustable, allowing you to customise the space according to the shape and size of groceries you wish to store. Underneath the shelves the WRT134 has two, humidity controlled, crispers which are solidly constructed from clear plastic, affording good visibility of the crispers' contents.

White and clear plastic cubbies and shelving in the door frame provide space for condiments and drinks, with extra space in the bottom shelf to accommodate larger bottles.

While this is not the model that will provide you with temperature controlled drawers or special features, customer comments strongly suggest that this is an exemplary model. The popularity this refrigerator enjoys for its solid build quality and reliable functioning is precisely what we are looking for in the models we review.

Freezer:

Customer response shows that this is a reliable freezer which functions well. Like the refrigerator section, this is a few frills affair, but if your looking for a solid, small apartment refrigerator in this price range, the customer reputation of the WRT134's freezer strongly suggests that it will keep your goods reliably frozen, with minimal fuss and and at minimal cost.

Noise:

The online record of the the WRT shows that it frequently receives customer admiration for its quiet operation.

Exterior:

In terms of design, the WRT is essentially a very simple, small top freezer than should fit well into most kitchen spaces without attracting too much attention to itself. The WR series is available in black (the WRT134TFDB), white (the WRT134TFDW) and stainless steel (the WRT134TFDM).

Ice-maker/Water dispenser:

The WRT134 series allows the option of adding an in the freezer ice maker for around $80. Our analysis of customer responses shows that the ice maker works quite well to meet the regular needs of the 1-2 people who would most likely use this refrigerator. Readers of this review should take into account that adding the in freezer ice maker will take up some space of this already fairly small freezer section.
