Our Maytag is a French door top and freezer bottom. Only way to go. I think it uses too much energy but it has been good.

The GE side by side has been garbage, it came with the house. It uses electricity like it were free. Seems to constantly cycle even when nicely cleaned. We keep thinking we are going to redo the upstairs kitchen and it just never happens.

I'd suggest sticking to basic colors. I grew up in a house with stainless countertops and appliances. They were easy to clean and work with. They did get mared but it was hard to do ;-) I'd do it again but I must say using a very light Silestone and white appliances in the house we built in Texas was really nice and cheery! Wife wanted black here and the black granite and black appliances are a bit gloomy even when off-set with light colors all around.

As far as strange colors, I remember the avacado appliances in the '70s. Couldn't give them away! Times change....

I don't take scalps. I'm civilized like white man now, I shoot man in back.
