American-Style Fridge Freezers

There's a lot to like about an american-style fridge freezer - they're big and bold enough to make an eye-catching fashion statement in your kitchen. They're also extremely practical, with lots of storage space and various features such as ice and water dispensers.

It's still worth keeping a few things in mind before you buy one.

Size

American fridge freezers tend to be larger than UK models. This means that you will have more space to store your groceries. The average size can hold up to 38 bags of food items and is ideal for families who have an appetite and often entertain guests. Choose a model with an integrated water and ice dispenser for convenience in having chilled drinks available on demand. Our range includes slimline models for small spaces, as well as larger double-door options to fit your family.

You can also find American under counter fridge freezers with different colors to match your kitchen. You can choose from sleek silver, elegant black minimalist white or more striking finishes.

We have models from the top brands which means you can be sure that the quality is of the highest standard. Our collection also includes fridge freezers with an A rating for energy efficiency, so you can be confident about the environmental impact of your new purchase, while saving money on your electric bills.

When selecting your American fridge freezer, you must determine the area you plan to position it before making a purchase. Check that the fridge freezer is able to open and close its door easily. Also, verify if there are any shelves or drawers inside. We recommend planning your way to the kitchen with the appliance in place, so you know if there are tight spots that might be difficult to maneuver around. Also, you'll want to make sure you can still reach all the snacks you love!

Aesthetics

American-style fridge freezers don't just talk about their size, though. They are often a fashionable design element in kitchens and can be an impressive way to show off your wealth and taste to your family and friends. They also tend to have a number of features that other fridges do not have, like ice and water dispensers with digital displays, as well as fancy fruit and veg drawers to ensure freshness for longer.

The color options for refrigerators are also more diverse than the other appliances. This means that you can choose a model to complement your kitchen. The brushed stainless steel models are the most attractive, since they blend seamlessly into the kitchen, creating an elegant and stunning design statement.

The most recent American-style refrigerators are also fitted with a range of smart technologies that help reduce food waste, and simplify your life. For instance, the Samsung Bespoke line of refrigerators (which made its debut at CES in 2021) can be custom-built to your specific needs with an array of colors and sizes. You can also download an 21.5-inch Android Tablet that provides access to the internet and a variety of apps, such as shopping lists, calendars, recipes messages, images, timers, etc. It will recognize your voice and answer questions, just like Hal 9000 in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Of of course, not everyone would like an elegant fridge. You may prefer a less flashy, however, equally functional one like the iQ500 by SMEG. It is available in a variety of classic retro colours. It comes with a non-plumbed water dispenser, which lets you dispense cold, clean water and instant ice.

Storage

American fridge freezers are bigger than their British counterparts. This lets you store more food items and keep it chilled until you are ready to consume it. They're perfect for large families, frequent house guests and anyone who wants to stock up on bargain buys or bulk purchases to avoid waste and make more manageable shopping trips.

You'll find a broad assortment of storage options inside an american-style fridge from drawers to shelves. Some refrigerators come with adjustable shelves, which makes it possible to modify your fridge to fit different sizes of drink and food containers. Door racks are great for storing jars filled with nuts butter or pasteurised juices and condiments like ketchup or mustard as well as freezer drawers that are ideal for frozen meats, frozen vegetables and bread. It is recommended that milk is not stored in the door as it may spoil more quickly due to temperature fluctuations.

A well-stocked, organized fridge is a stunning sight. However, aside from looking good, a fridge well-organized can help you save money, prevent food wastage and reduce annoying fridge smells. It's easy to achieve with the right kitchen appliances.

Utilize storage containers and containers with clear labels to create an orderly system for your food items. So, you won't find the jar of hummus or wondering what that strange green blob at the bottom of your freezer is. Use clear plastic containers, baskets and bins to keep the different kinds of food. Also, consider investing in fridge door racks ($13 on Amazon) to organize jars and bottles.

Energy efficiency

American fridge freezers are a great way to bring a modern style to your kitchen. Their large storage capacities will allow you to fit in a lot of your weekly shopping, while also keeping food fresh for longer. However, they can be expensive to run due to their energy consumption. The good part is that you can drastically reduce your electric bill by choosing an appliance with an energy efficiency rating that is higher. Models that have an A or A+ energy rating use less power than those with lower ratings.

Energy efficient refrigerators can save you a substantial amount of money in the long run. A fridge that is low in carbon emissions will also aid in reducing the impact of your home on the environment. Some models also come with the holiday mode, which automatically changes the freezer in the fridge to a power-saving setting when you're away.

You can find many energy-efficient fridges with features like an automatic ice maker or twin cooling systems. The latter helps to improve energy efficiency by separating the freezer and fridge sections, which prevents the warmer air in your fridge from causing freezing issues at the freezer's bottom.

Slimline models are perfect for those who want a compact American fridge freezer. These models can be as tiny as 70cm wide and are ideal for UK homes with small space. These models are typically placed in a row, and include a freezer compartment on top of the fridge, so you won't need to stoop to the ground to access your frozen food items. They are available in a variety of styles, such as stainless steel and silver.

Buying a new fridge freezer

American fridge freezers are an excellent addition to any kitchen and provide lots of storage. If you're a foodie who prefers to have a variety of fresh ingredients at hand or a parent with an hungry family to feed or an avid entertainer with an audience to impress, these freezers will let you keep everything from snacks and fizzy drinks to leftovers from meals and parties.

There are models available in a variety of shades, including sleek black that can enhance the overall look. Many models also have a range of door racks that allow you to store larger containers and bottles upright, freeing up space on shelves for other items. There are also a variety of plumbed dispensers of water and ice which allow you to get instant ice cold drinking water or crushed frozen ice to serve cocktails on demand.

The choice of a model that is energy efficient is also important with American refrigerator freezers. They are usually open all day, so they need to be energy efficient to lower your household expenses. Look out for the Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) label, which is displayed on all of our models. A higher EER rating will be more efficient.

Don't forget to take into consideration the delivery and installation of your new appliance. It is important to measure the width and height of your entryway, as well as any steps or doors it will have to go through to enter your kitchen. You can then compare these measurements with the dimensions of your chosen model to ensure that it will fit before purchasing. You can also hire a handyman or strong man to help you move it up and down the steps.
