Refrigerators & freezers

Refrigerator buying guide & tips: shop with confidence

We offer a wide variety of large, small and mini refrigerators and freezers in different styles and shapes. Find the one that fits perfectly into your kitchen by exploring our range. We explain the factors worth considering below to help in your purchasing decision.

Full size or mini fridge: Space and size considerations when buying a new fridge

When choosing a refrigerator, size should be the first consideration. Do you need a high cabinet solution with a fridge on top and a freezer below? Or maybe an under the counter refrigerator with a freezer compartment is a better fit? Make sure to check the dimensions to find one that fits your home before coming into the store to purchase or online. To check for correct dimensions, you’ll want to measure the depth, width and length. Be sure to leave some breathing room above the fridge or on the sides.

In addition to measurements, you’ll want to think of the storage space in the fridge, which are cubic feet. Think about how much storage you want or need and if it will fit in the space you have. Small fridges are usually below 20 cubic feet and larger are above. Our French door refrigerators are counter depth which saves you up to 4 inches more space and blends evenly with your kitchen cabinets. If you have any questions, the sales associate at your local store can help.

Our small fridges, or mini refrigerators, can be placed under a counter or between two cabinets – ideal for smaller kitchens with limited space. But they can be just as useful in a guest house, den, basement, as a dorm room refrigerator or wherever you want to keep a chilled snack.

Fridges in the right style and color – stainless steel and white refrigerators

A good tip is matching the refrigerator with your other appliances. For instance, if your dishwasher and oven are white – a white fridge is a complementary choice. If you want to grace your kitchen with modern stainless steel, we also have options for you. You can even add magnets to our stainless steel refrigerators, which brings more personalization to your fridge!

Refrigerators with storage shelves and crisper drawers

Most of our fridges come with practical functions that make your life easier. What about never having to defrost your freezer again? Choose one with automatic defrosting. Want to cool down big quantities of food quickly? Select one with fast freeze and fast cooling.

Our refrigerators offer plenty of food storage both in the fridge and the freezer drawers. Adjustable shelves, multiple crispers and built-in door shelving let you arrange your food storage containers just the way you like. And, with integrated LEDs that light up every corner, you'll be able to see (and find) everything you've packed in — even that jar of pickles in the back.

Nearly all our refrigerators have adjustable shelves, transparent drawers and door compartments to make organizing and storing easier. You can easily customize the space to your needs as well so certain items are visible at a quick glance. Many of our shelves offer clever solutions for storing eggs, bottles, vegetables or other foods.

Some of our fridges also allow for the option of mounting the door on the right-hand or the left-hand side. This customizable freedom means you can adjust the appliance to the space you have, opening the fridge door to either right or the left depending on what is most convenient.

Smart cooling functions means less waste

Efficient cooling is a cornerstone of a sustainable kitchen. The better your fridge and freezer work, the less food you will waste. Most of our refrigerators are ENERGY STAR® certified and packed with smart functions that will keep your food fresher, longer. For example: fan cooling, which ensures an even and consistent temperature; a fast freeze option that quickly freezes large amounts of food; or ice makers that really come in handy when you're hosting a party.

Warranty guarantee and energy efficiency

All our fridges come with either a two- or five-year guarantee, giving you peace of mind. You can read about the warranty on the product page of each fridge.

Learn more about each appliance's energy consumption on the product page as well. This will tell you more about the energy efficiency of the appliance and allow you to calculate how much you can save on energy compared to your current refrigerator. Our range includes ENERGY STAR® certified refrigerators for all budgets.

Easy installation of your new fridge or freezer

We are here to help guide you throughout your journey when looking for new appliances for your kitchen.

• Remember the first task you’ll want to do is measure the space you have for the refrigerator in your kitchen. Make sure to write down the width, depth and height; see more tips on measurement in the previous copy above. It’s helpful to get the measurement in front of the fridge to make space for refrigerator doors whether it opens on either side or pull-out freezer drawers. You’ll also want to keep ventilation in mind for around the fridge so keep some space either on top or on the sides.
• Once you've identified the space you have then you’ll want to pick out the style and color for your fridge.
• From there, view the different features that best fit what you’re looking for. You can either view online or in store and we will be there to help if needed!
