Great looking French Door Fridge

Got this delivered a few weeks back and am pleased so far. Couple things I ran into though: For the install, they would not hook up my fridge to the copper line, so they made me buy the hose. The one that I got was way too short to reach, so I ended up having to order another 20 foot hose. No big deal. I hooked it up, and followed the instructions to get the air out of the line, draining out a good amount of water to clear out any debris or dust or overall nastiness of the hose/waterfilter, etc.
After running the water for the noted amount of time, everything seemed good to go. So I let the fridge get down to temp, the ice maker to kick in, and the next day - I went to use the water and nothing came out. After reading the manual, it said to look at the display for the waterfilter. I did, and it showed "LEAK" - so I opened up the waterfilter, and some water came out. I completely removed the filter, dried it off, inspected the housing it sits in for any breaks or issues, and didn't see anything. I reinstalled the filter and it still showed the error.
I then unplugged the fridge to see if that would do anything, and it did not. In any case I ended up calling the big box store I bought it from, and the lady said since it was 3 days since I had the unit, they would not be able to help and reach out to GE. Frustrated, I waited a day and planned to call them later in the week.
Low and behold, 2 days later the error went away, water worked once again, and the ice maker kicked out some ice. Not sure exactly what was wrong, but it did correct itself over time. I assume there are sensors in there that may had gotten wet or something, and until it dried, would continue to throw the code.
Either way, I thought i would share this incase someone else runs into a similar issue. Other than that, I have no complaints about this fridge. It is much deeper than our last, more freezer space, and an overall quality feel and appearance. For the money, and compared to many others I researched, this was a really solid choice.
I am hopeful to get 5+ years out of it.
