It is easy to become confused when you are looking for a fridge due to the numerous terms used to describe them. One of the most popular is a fridge called a larder. A larder refrigerator is a fridge which does not have an freezer compartment or icebox, so all of the space inside is reserved for refrigeration solely. This makes it perfect for those looking to maximize their cooling space and also avoid the additional cost of an icebox and freezer.

It is essential to store dairy products (eggs and milk) high in your larder refrigerator. Raw meat should be kept on the lowest shelf of the refrigerator. This isn't only because of temperature, but also to avoid any juices that run off contaminating other foods. Crisper drawers are best for vegetables. However, you should be careful that you do not store any fruits in these drawers since they release ethylene, which can cause the over-ripening of other fresh foods. This can be a problem with foods like watermelons, apples and tomatoes.
