Samsung is showing ads on some refrigerators that cost over $3,000. The South Korean company has confirmed that these advertisements will be shown as a test run on some "Family Hub" refrigerators that are sold in the US. Users cannot disable them.
In my experience, self-close fridge doors have a graduated spindle screw hinge: as you open the door it is slightly elevated via screwing upward on the hinge, then gravity forces the door to spin in the reverse direction when you let go.
This works fine and closes the door if the fridge is tilted back at the manufacturer-specified angle (i think like 3° usually?) via adjusting the front feet/supports. But if the fridge is tilted too much or not at all, it either won’t work well or will be unable to close completely.
Fully open it would stay open anyway?

Tl;dr: generally works if you follow the manual.
