When buying a fridge freezer for your home, everybody prefers to buy a spacious top freezer refrigerator. This is so because a small size fridge cannot preserve loads of food items. For this, you have to shop for groceries several times a week and it is really challenging to save money by shopping at big stores nowadays.
There is no doubt that various features such as colors, icemaker and stainless steel body greatly impact one’s decision. But more importantly, your fridge freezer orientation matters the most. It means that either freezer is on the side, top or bottom. Obviously, there will be pros and cons for each combination of a refrigerator. Here, our experts will guide you how different refrigerator styles impact your living style:
Top Mount
This kind of refrigerator is the most common that we have been seeing since childhood. In this type, two-third of the bottom area is reserved for preserving perishable food items. While, one-third area on the top is dedicated to keeping frozen items to a height that is beyond children’s reach.
Top mount refrigerators were first introduced in 1940, the refrigerators having freezer compartment at the top such as Haier 15 CFT Top Mount Refrigerator HRF-438TDC. These are conventional fridge freezers and constitute more than half of the refrigerator sales.
Though top freezer refrigerator may not have much aesthetics, yet, they are more likely to be reliable than bottom and side by side refrigerators. Moreover, they are much energy efficient which means that it’s great both from budget and environment viewpoints. Another benefit of such refrigerators is that it occupies less space in your kitchen but have a less storage space too.
Bottom Freezer
When it comes to a bottom freezer, we cannot deny the fact that this refrigerator is greater in aesthetics in contrast to a top freezer. Refrigerators comprising freezer compartment at the bottom are the most energy efficient. In the bottom freezer, you can easily keep all your favored items at eye level.
Refrigerators comprising freezers at the bottom normally have slide-out drawers in the freezer which makes storage of frozen items organized and easily accessible when needed. The compartments in a bottom freezer tend to be larger compared to the top freezer. This lets you store plentiful food items. However, bottom freezers are always higher in price in contrast to the top mount.
Side by Side Refrigerator
As the name indicates, a side by side refrigerator splits your fridge on one side while the freezer on the other side, e.g. Haier 18 CFT Side By Side Refrigerator HRF-568TBG. Though side by side refrigerator occupies more space compared to others, yet the best part is that you can keep perishable frozen and chilled items at eye level, within your reach.
The biggest benefit of a side by side refrigerator is that it comprises different unique features which top mount or bottom freezer doesn’t offer. For instance, Samsung 22 CFT Side by Side Refrigerator RS50N3613SB offers an “Ice Maker” feature which allows you to get chill water in the hottest season, whenever you want. It includes a showcase door so you can keep the most frequently used items at the front. The side by side design allows you to enjoy less space particularly when it comes to opening their doors which makes them ideal for narrow space kitchens.
When planning to buy a top freezer refrigerator, make sure to consider all the possible options so you can choose the one that suits your needs. You can visit various online stores to have your research. Make a comparison based on the features, prices and benefits and how easily you can access fresh and frozen items.
