The Reason You Shouldn't Think About Enhancing Your American-Style Fridge Freezers
American Fridge Freezers
American fridge freezers are a fantastic addition to any kitchen. They are sleek, large and have a lot of storage. They can even fit a whopping 38 shopping bags of food!
A majority of models include water and an ice dispenser which can provide chilled, filtered water. There are also models that are not plumbed in case you are having difficulty accessing your water pipes.
They're huge
If you're after a fridge freezer that has a wow factor, then an American-style model is worth considering. These models offer twice as much storage space as a standard fridge-freezer, making them perfect for large families or those who like to batch cook. Alongside a large storage space, they're designed to make a chic design statement in the kitchen. They come in a range of contemporary, sleek colours to ensure you find the perfect style for your decor.
We have a wide selection of American fridge freezers from top brands such as Samsung and LG. Some are integrated, while others are freestanding and have double doors that run from top to bottom. The most well-known feature of these models is water dispensers that provide fresh, filtered water at the push of the button. Some models can even dispense crushed-ice, ideal to serve a refreshing drink on a hot day in the summer! You can choose between models that are plumbed-in or non-plumbed, so you can choose the one that is best suited to your home.
Some American-style fridge freezers also boast a raft of other clever features, such as Total No Frost that prevents ice from building up inside. You'll never have to manually defrost which will save you time and effort! Some have zerodrawers for fruit and vegetables that ensure your fresh produce is at its best and help ensure that it lasts longer. There are fridge freezers that feature a clean deodorizing function that gets rid of smells and freshens the inside.
These larger appliances aren't cheap, though. You can expect to pay approximately PS500 or more for an American-style fridge freezer, and more if it comes with additional features, such as an ice or water dispenser dispenser. Before you make a choice, you should consider your budget. These are significant purchases.
It is essential to measure the doorways and tight spaces that the delivery vehicle will need to pass through prior to ordering your new American refrigerator freezer. This will ensure that your new appliance fits into your home and can be easily opened and closed.
It's chic
American-style
refrigerators and freezers are a great option to add style and elegance to your kitchen. They provide more storage space than a standard refrigerator or freezer. They are also a great addition to any family kitchen because they are available in a wide range of designs and colours.

As well as their huge capacity, american-style fridge freezers also tend to come with a variety of useful features like Total No Frost technology to stop any ice building up and water dispensers so you can enjoy crisp, chilled water on tap. A majority of models have an additional wine cooler for keeping all your wine as well which is an excellent addition.
Of course, with all these extras, American-style fridge freezers do come at an expense. They're generally larger than standard fridge freezers, generally around 90cm wide and can be up to 10cm deep which means you'll require a bigger kitchen to accommodate them. They'll require you to plumb them in too so they can be connected to a water supply, which could limit the areas you can put them.
If you're looking for more compact option, we have some slimline models that are ideal for spaces with limited space. You can also pick from a wide range of colors to match your decor. We have shimmering silver and minimalist white, as well as sophisticated black to fit seamlessly into your kitchen.
As we've already mentioned, American fridge freezers are an investment, however they can make a statement in any kitchen. If you are thinking about installing one in your kitchen, measure the space and any doors or hallways it will need to pass through. Some models are mounted on a pallet, and require a handyman to lift them into place. If you're concerned about this, don't worry as we offer a full installation service for an additional cost.
It's practical
If you want a fridge-freezer that will make an impact in your kitchen, then an American style model is the right choice. These models are not just able to appear impressive but also provide more space than traditional refrigerators and freezers.

There are models that include integrated dispensers for water and ice and electronic displays. There are also models with additional holiday modes, extremely fast freezing settings, and electronic displays.
You'll find both plumbed and non-plumbed American fridge freezers, so if you choose one equipped with a water and ice dispenser be aware that it'll need to be connected to the main water supply, which may restrict where you can place the appliance in your kitchen. If you do not want to pay for plumbing, you can opt for one with an able water container. You'll need refill it when needed. However this will limit the number of many glasses you can drink of chilled water filtered with ice at one time.
The double doors of an American-style fridge freezer typically open wide, allowing you to access all your food items easily. They also have more shelving than side by side refrigerator freezers.

It's expensive
A good fridge freezer will be one of the most important purchases you make for your home. Although they're not the most expensive, American-style fridge freezers offer impressive technical specifications as well as an elegant design.
Many homeowners are drawn by the large capacity of these large appliances. They can hold anywhere between 11 to 38 shopping bags of groceries, meaning you can stock up in bulk and visit the shop less frequently.

These big machines aren't cheap especially if they come with several doors and separate compartments for the fridge and freezer. This is why it's best to do a little research before you commit to buy one, especially if you're going for a built-in model with an individualized installation. It is also important to check the energy rating to determine how much it will cost to run these big boys every month. Additionally, you have to be sure to take measurements of any entrances or hallways to ensure they are safe to transport.
There are some tricks you can use to keep costs down. Many retailers will deliver to your doorstep and take away (and reconnect) the fridge freezer for you at no cost. You can also arrange a pre-installation with the retailer to help determine if your chosen model will work in your home prior to purchasing.
The Siemens IQ700 has retro style, a sleek finish, and a large amount of storage space. It's perfect for any kitchen.

This model is especially well-organized, and has a crisper drawer for salads and wire bottle racks to make space in the freezer. There's a water dispenser that isn't plumbed on the right-hand side of the door, so you can have ice cold drinks in your hand as well as LED lighting for the fresh food and freezer sections.
