Fantastic features and functions of fridge freezers
These days fridge freezers do a lot more than simply keeping your food and drinks cold or frozen, and it is important to understand what the different features and functions are so that you can make an informed decision when purchasing a new one. Gone are the days when you had a choice of a couple of fridges and a couple of freezers and here instead is the chance to buy a home appliance that has all the features of the old models and a lot more.
When looking for a fridge freezer, the first thing to do is write a list of must-haves and a wish list of features that are not essential but would be nice to have. Start with the size you have allocated to the fridge freezer, whether this is built-in or freestanding space, and ensure that you are only looking at models that are suitable for the space you have. The sizes available vary dramatically, from small under-counter or counter top fridge freezers, right up to large freestanding American fridge freezers that have huge storage capacity but also take up a lot of space.
Small fridge freezers will tend to have two shelves, storage space for bottles, jars, and eggs in the door, a salad drawer, and a small freezer compartment, and they will be suitable for individuals or couples, but definitely not for families. These are also great for those with limited space or small kitchens as they will not dominate or take up valuable storage space in the home.
For larger families or those who simply like to stock up on fresh and frozen produce, American fridge freezers offer the best option. These types of fridge freezer not only have a large overall capacity, but they are also compartmentalised to ensure that your food and drink is stored in the most space-efficient manner. This means that they will often encompass salad drawers which can be set to a different temperature to the rest of the fridge, they will give you huge amounts of space in the door to store bottles and jars upright, and they will give you three or four shelves on which to store food. The freezer will usually consist of three deep drawers and a specific ice compartment, unless of course there is a built-in ice maker to the front of the unit.
A wide range of fridge freezers and larger chest freezers can be found online, with convenient home delivery you won’t even have to worry about how your new appliance will make its way home.
