It's essential to keep a few things in your mind prior to purchasing a.

Size

American fridge freezers are typically larger than the standard UK models, providing you with plenty of space to stock up your groceries. The average size is thought to hold up to 38 shopping bags of food. This is perfect for families with big appetites and frequent guests at home. Pick a model with an integrated water and ice dispenser for convenience in having chilled drinks available on demand. Our selection includes slimline models for smaller spaces, and larger double-door models that can accommodate the entire family.

There are also American fridge freezers with a choice of designs to fit your kitchen. You can pick from sleek silver, sophisticated black minimalist white or more striking finishes.

Our selection also includes refrigerator freezers that have an A rating for energy efficiency, so you can be assured of the impact on the environment of your new purchase, while conserving money on your electricity costs.

Before purchasing take measurements of the area you'll be placing your American fridge-freezer. Check that the fridge freezer is able to open and close its door comfortably. Also, make sure there are shelves or drawers within. We recommend arranging your journey to the kitchen with the appliance in place, so you can identify any tight spots that might be difficult to navigate. You'll also want to make sure you can still reach all the snacks you love!

Aesthetics

American-style fridge freezers aren't only about their size, though. They can be an excellent way to impress friends and family with your food and drink. They also have a number of features that other refrigerators don't, including water and ice dispensers as well as digital displays, and fancy fruit and vegetable drawers for longer-lasting freshness.

The colour options for fridges are also more varied than the other appliances. This means you can pick a model that complement your kitchen. The stainless steel models that are brushed are the most attractive, since they blend in with the kitchen and create an elegant yet subtle design statement.

The latest American-style fridges include a variety of smart technology that could help reduce food waste and make your life easier. For instance, the Samsung Bespoke range of fridges (which was introduced at CES in 2021) can be built to your specific needs with various colors and sizes. You can also get a 21.5-inch Android tablet installed, that gives you access to the web plus an array of apps for shopping lists recipes, calendars images, messages, timers and more. It even recognizes your voice and respond to your queries like Hal 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey!

Some people don't want a sophisticated refrigerator. You may prefer a less flashy, but still functional model such as the iQ500 from SMEG. It is available in a range of classic retro colours. It comes with a non-plumbed water dispenser, which allows you to serve clean, cold filtered water, and instant ice.

Stores

American fridge freezers are larger than their British counterparts. This allows you to store more food and keep it chilled until ready to consume it. These are ideal for large families as well as those who have frequent house guests. They can also be used by anyone who wants to buy bulk items or at a reduced price to reduce the waste.

There is a wide range of storage options in American-style refrigerators, from shelves to drawers. Some are equipped with adjustable shelves which allows you to customise your refrigerator to fit different sized foods and drinks containers. Door racks are ideal for storing jars filled with nuts butter, pasteurised juices, and condiments like ketchup and mustard and freezer drawers are ideal for frozen meats, frozen vegetables, and bread. It is recommended that milk not be stored in the door as it is more likely to spoil due to fluctuations in temperature.

A neatly-stocked, well-organized fridge is a stunning sight. However, aside from looking nice, a refrigerator well-organized will help you save money, reduce food waste and cut down on those unpleasant fridge odors. The good thing is that it's relatively simple to achieve, especially if you have the right kitchen equipment.

Use containers and storage solutions with clear labels to establish an organized system for your food. That way, you'll never be searching for a jar of hummus, or wondering what that weird green blob in the freezer's bottom is. Use clear plastic containers, baskets, and bins to keep the different kinds of food items. Also, invest in fridge door racks ($13 on Amazon) to organize jars and bottles.

Energy efficiency

American fridge freezers are a great option to add a modern look to your kitchen. They come with large storage capacities that will allow you to store a lot of your grocery items while still keeping the food fresh. However, they can be costly to operate because of their high energy consumption. You can lower your electric bill by as much as 50% when you choose an appliance that has higher energy efficiency ratings. Models with an A or A+ energy rating use less power than models with lower ratings.

You can save lots of money by investing in energy efficient refrigerators. A refrigerator that has low carbon emissions can aid in reducing the impact of your household on the environment. Certain models come with an automatic holiday mode that switches the freezer of your refrigerator to a power saving mode when you're away.

Many energy-efficient refrigerators come with features like an automatic icemaker or twin cooling systems. The latter helps to improve energy efficiency by separating the fridge and freezer sections, preventing the warm air in the fridge from causing freezing issues in the freezer's bottom.

If you're looking for an American fridge freezer with smaller footprint, think about opting for a slimline model. They can be as small as 70cm which makes them ideal for UK homes with less space. These models are often in a pair, and feature a freezer compartment above the fridge. This means you don't have to bend down to access your frozen food. They are available in a variety of different styles, including stainless steel or silver.

Purchase a New Refrigerator

American fridge freezers can make a great kitchen statement and offer copious storage space. They're perfect for anyone looking to store a variety fresh ingredients, whether they're a foodie, a parent, or an entertainer.

You'll find models in a variety of colours to complement your kitchen, including sleek black which can really add to the appearance.

There are also a range of plumbed water and ice dispensers that allow you to access instant ice cold drinking water or crushed ice for cocktails at a moment's notice.

The choice of a model that is energy efficient is also important with American refrigerator freezers. They are usually in operation all day long, so they must be energy efficient to lower the cost of your household. All of our models come with an Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) which shows how efficient they are.

Don't forget to consider the installation and delivery costs of your new appliance. It is crucial to determine the width and height of your entrance and any doors or steps that it will need to pass through to enter your kitchen. Compare these measurements to the dimensions of the model you're contemplating to ensure it's a good fit. You can also hire a handyman or a strong man to assist you in moving it up and down the steps.
