american style fridge freezers (see here now)

A fridge freezer built in the American style makes an impact. They're a lot bigger than traditional models and can store a large amount of food, with some having more advanced functions such as holiday modes and smart displays.

Some also feature dispensers for water and ice that are either plumbed in or with non-plumbed options that draw from an integral tank.

Large capacity

An American fridge freezer is a striking design statement in your kitchen. It has more space than traditional British fridge freezers. This allows you to store the bulkier family's shopping, or even more food items if you're catering for lots of guests.

You can select models with double doors or designs that have two doors above a drawer (also known as French style American refrigerator freezers). These are mostly freestanding, but you can opt to purchase integrated versions that are flush with the cabinetry.

As well as having a massive storage capacity, these large american fridge freezers models often come with extra features which will make life easier and add a bit of luxury to your kitchen. For example, you could choose a door-mounted cool water and ice maker that will supply unlimited chilled water or crushed ice that you can pour directly from the fridge.

Naturally, these accessories can take up space and mean that the fridge freezer is bigger than the standard model. This could limit the places you can put it, or in the event that it's delivered and you're not sure how easy it will be to bring it into your home! Before purchasing, it's a great idea to determine the doorways and other areas where the refrigerator freezer needs to fit. This includes your front door and any other doors that it will have to traverse.

Convertible zones

Alongside offering a huge amount of storage space, American fridge freezers have many features to ensure that your food is at its peak. Models with convertible zones will allow you to change the freezer compartment between fridge and freeze depending on your requirements. This is great for the holiday season when you require more space to store wine. You can also find energy efficient options with an E rating like the Hisense RQ560N4WCF, our top pick in this range thanks to its holiday mode and dual cooling system that separates the fridge from the freezer to stop drying freezer air from damaging your chilled foods.

These American refrigerator freezers come with water and ice dispensers built inside the doors to save space. They are usually plumbed into and should be close to your water supply, so take note of where this is in your kitchen before buying. Before you purchase a fridge freezer, ensure that you measure it accurately and consider any corners, stairs or hallways involved. If possible, it's worth hiring someone to help you out if necessary.

Water & ice dispensers

Most American refrigerator freezers include an integrated water dispenser that can serve crushed chilled, filtered, or crushed frozen ice at the touch of an button. It's an excellent way to help your family members to drink plenty of water and adds to the fun factor, especially for children.

Depending on the model, this feature might require plumbing or limit the location you can put your appliance. It also requires a water filter that needs replacing every six months.

Apart from being an excellent convenience, the ice and water dispenser can also help prevent drinks and food from becoming cold or spoiling. It's also less messy than having to empty and refill the trays with ice cubes on a regular basis.

These freestanding models are stylish and ingenuous. They have received numerous favorable reviews on Mumsnet forums.

American-style fridge freezers are an excellent option for people with large families or with lots of food items to store. They are available in a variety of finishes. Many models are able to be customized, like reversible doors and alarms when the door is opened.

For those who need a little extra help in keeping their food fresh, you should look for models with a glass panel on the freezer's door that flashes when you knock on it. This allows you to look inside without having to open the door. It also prevents ambient air from escaping, saving you money.
