Aesthetics
French door fridge freezers look stylish and can make kitchens appear modern. They are available in sleek stainless steel that can blend in with modern homes and a variety kitchen designs. They also have exterior water filters, ice makers, and temperature control options. Some of our french-style fridge freezers also have a special coating that hides fingerprints and other smudges which means they're less likely look worn over time.
What makes these refrigerators stand out is that they feature doors that open in the middle rather than swinging left or right on hinges, like traditional refrigerators. This makes them easier to use and is a good choice for those with limited mobility or physical disabilities. In addition the top compartment of the fridge offers more storage space for refrigerated goods, while the lower freezer has more space for frozen items and ice cream.
Aside from their user-friendly layout, French door fridges offer a more attractive design than side-by-side refrigerators. The double doors give a kitchen a sense depth and dimension, making it appear more spacious. They also feature built-in storage spaces for snacks, condiments and small containers, so they're ideal for those who want to keep their food tidy and neat.
Another bonus of the French-style fridge is that it can easily accommodate larger platters and large food items. This is especially beneficial for families who have children and frequently entertain guests. These units also have adjustable shelves and door bins that allow for more flexible storage. You can store different sizes of items without opening the whole refrigerator, which can reduce the amount of energy used.

We suggest looking through our side-by-side refrigerators as well as bottom freezer refrigerators, and compact French door refrigerators to discover the ideal solution for your kitchen. If you still can't decide our appliance experts are on hand to help you. They will answer your questions and help you choose the ideal refrigerator for your needs.
Space
French-door refrigerator freezers provide ample freezer and refrigerator storage. There are also models with a third freezer drawer located in the bottom section for extra freezer space or to store items that do not freeze well (such as frozen bread). These additional drawers can be a good choice for families with larger numbers of members and aid in keeping food items organized.
The large fridge compartments on top of these French door refrigerators are great for storing items that you use frequently, like fresh fruits and drinks. You can also choose a model that has an entire width drawer for large quantities of food items and meals preparations. This lets you access and store these items without having to open the door to the fridge. This is a great spot to store any meat, poultry, or fish that is raw, poultry, or fish in order to prevent cross-contamination.
Some models even include a second, medium-sized freezer drawer on the bottom which can be used for anything from ice cream to frozen seafood. This drawer's temperature can be adjusted to suit your requirements. These models have smaller freezers than other models however they are adequate enough to meet the requirements of most households.
Look for models that have adjustable shelving or storage options to maximize the size of your French door refrigerator's freezer space. This will allow you optimize the space to meet your needs and make sure that the freezer is fully filled to capacity in order to maintain the ideal temperature for freezing.
Another method to keep your French door fridge freezer running at its peak is to clean it regularly. This means cleaning drawers and shelves with mild soap solutions and thoroughly drying them prior to inserting them. You'll also want to wipe down the exterior of your fridge from time to time to remove any fingerprints and keep it looking clean. If you have a stainless steel model you might want to consider using the stainless steel cleaner to keep it in tip-top shape. In addition to regular cleaning, it is recommended to defrost your freezer regularly (every few months) to prevent the accumulation of ice crystals, which can hinder the operation of your refrigerator and reduce its energy efficiency.
Convenience
The unique design of french door fridge freezer s means that everything you store is easier to access than with other refrigerator models. This makes it easier to quickly grab items that you require throughout the day. For instance, instead of juggling containers, glasses and other items while searching for food from the those crisper drawers in the bottom of your refrigerator, you can open up the french doors and reach it more easily, without much clutter or having to bend to find what you need.
French door refrigerators are constructed with large compartments and wide shelves. This lets you keep your fresh ingredients up at eye-level, while also keeping less frequently used frozen foods in a pull-out freezer drawer. This is a great arrangement for those who prefer to cook more often at home and require large quantities of fresh produce, meats, and seafood in their refrigerator. There are models that have advanced features like outdoor or indoor water and ice, temperature zones specialized for each model, and spill-proof shelves.
French door refrigerator freezers are less convenient however they also have smaller freezer spaces. They're not ideal for those who use their freezers for storage purposes over the long term. They might not offer the same flexibility as a side-by-side when it comes to organizing your freezer. This makes it difficult to store larger items, such as bags of frozen vegetables or leftover pizza.
Some models that have French doors have a door in door' feature that lets you keep snacks and beverages without opening the main refrigerator door. This is a great option for families that want quick access to snacks and drinks without having to open the main fridge every time, but it's a feature that's not available on all models of refrigerators with french doors.
Energy efficiency
A separate freezer drawer that is protected will keep your fresh food in a more convenient location and at a higher level than a top-mounted fridge. This makes it less likely that you'll forget about the produce or let it go bad which is the main reason why a large number of Brits shut off their refrigerators this year.
The dual doors on a French-style refrigerator can also help keep warm air out and cool air in. When you open a regular fridge door the cold air has to be pumped back in each time. This takes up a lot of energy. French-door refrigerators are designed to only open half the refrigerator at any given time. This means that less cold air is lost and the fridge doesn't have to adjust its temperature as often.
Compare the kWh consumption figures on Energy Star labels when shopping for french-style refrigerator freezer. This will give you an idea of the amount of energy that the model consumes during a particular year. You can be certain that you're buying a dependable appliance.
You may also look for features that can reduce your fridge's energy consumption further for example, a hands-free AutoFill water dispenser or advanced water filtration. These will cut down on the amount your fridge needs to work, keeping it operating at its maximum efficiency and lowering energy bills in the long run.
French-style fridge freezers also tend to have wider shelves and more door bins than standard models. This makes it easier to store an abundance of food items at any given moment. This means you won't have to keep rearranging your containers of storage or pitchers to find what you need, which could save both time and frustration.
There are many options available that can fit in with any kitchen. While French-style refrigerators with bottom freezers are great for those who prefer a top-mounted fridge but there are plenty of other options. These include through-the door water and ice dispensers. Other features can include ice makers with higher-end features and drawers with adjustable temperature as well as smart platforms and built-in touchscreens. Consider all the possibilities and pick one that is suitable for your family.
