A:AnswerThe dispenser on our 5/2019 purchased unit does manually extend out via a sliding track and inch or two to catch drips. since the dispenser is in front of the ice dispenser, and not deep at all, this is helpful as folks inevitably pull their cup away a little too quickly. once you get used to the dispenser the drip tray in or out isn't really a big deal, as far as spills.
A:AnswerI believe 'SS' is regular stainless steel and 'PS' is Print-Shield (fingerprint) stainless. Check manufacturer's website to be sure. The Fingerprint stainless is great. Matches my other (regular) stainless steel just fine.
A:AnswerIt has been discontinued and is being remodeled due to faulty ice maker, etc. The new one won't be available until early October at the earliest. Same with the JennAir version
A:AnswerWe just saw this model (and bought it) this evening. It is Black Stainless with a smudge proof finish. Unlike regular stainless, you CAN put magnets on it (we tested it.)
