We LOVE this fridge!

Can anyone comment on the user friendliness of all those little freezer drawers?
Can you find anything in there??
Thanks.

I don't have any problem with the drawers. I keep specific items in each so I immediately know where to look.

My model has glass shelves between these drawers, so if you don't like the drawers you can take them out and not use them.

Same as Jerrod. I actually find the drawers better than the side by side with shelves. You can remove the whole drawer and carry it to a counter to sort things and put items in the freezer. On occasion, I remove the drawers to put jelly roll pans on the glass when making croissants.

Great fridge, I wish they made undercounter fridge drawers and freezers because I would buy them in a heart beat. I don't have enough space for another fridge in my layout.

Good luck!

Thanks Jerrod.
I ask because I noticed Consumer Reports 2008 Buying Guide rates the Liebherr excellent in most categories, but only "Fair" in "ease of use". I can't imagine what they could be referring to if not the freezer. Could they mean the lack of all that molded plastic in some of the American models?

I love the drawers. I love the refrigerator.

I get a lot of condensation on the back wall of the fridge. It freezes and melts with the cycles, but some of the drainage goes into containers if they are pushed all the way to the back.

The biofresh side doesn't have any of this condensation. I have one 24" side that is all fridge joined by another 24" unit that is biofresh on the top and freezer on the bottom.

Also, I have had a squeeky door on the 24" all fridge side that, so far, they have not been able to fix. A repairman replaced parts. I've been told that they have to call Germany to find out what the options might be. That was two weeks ago.

Does anyone have the same unit and have experience with the condensation? I was told this was normal.

"but only "Fair" in "ease of use". I can't imagine what they could be referring to if not the freezer. Could they mean the lack of all that molded plastic in some of the American models?"

Consumers may be referring to the items you mentioned. The use of freezer drawers is a different concept than what the USA consumer is used to and it may require a shift in thinking and usage..depending on how one adapts to change.

Also I did read a message where a person didn't like the fact that she could not store a 1 pound round container of margarine in the storage compartment. The compartment is made for butter dish not a gallon round container --Again change in concept.

So far I haven't found anything annoying or inconvenient and I like the lack of sound the unit makes.

My temps are set at 38/0. I have the 30" with the bottom freezer and haven't had any experience with condensation and this model doesn't have the biofresh feature. I've also removed drawers so I could freeze items on a sheet pan. It's a wonderful refrigerator.

It doesn't seem that the 30" free-standing model is available with the biofresh feature. What a shame - it sounds like a very desirable feature. I wonder if the new 36" model (not available til next Spring) will offer it.

ctkathy,
I do have condensation on the back wall of my fridge but it slips down into a weep hole and out of the fridge. This is normal. I think I know why you are getting condensation on stuff that is pushed all the way to the back. Let me see if I can explain. On the glass shelves, there are these white plastic things that are on the back of the shelf. Make sure that these are sticking up. They prevent the containers from hitting the back wall of the fridge and will prevent condensation from getting on your containers. I will try and take pictures later and see if that will be helpful. There is no instruction on how to install the racks but I realized when I washed my glass shelves last, I installed one of them incorrectly.

Good luck!
