It used to be that the only kind of refrigerator you could get had a full sized door and had a freezer on the top. Now there is a much more convenient type of refrigerator - the bottom freezer refrigerator. The best versions of this refrigerator are the energy star bottom freezer refrigerators, since these also save you money on your energy bill by using 15 to 50 percent less energy than other refrigerators.
The reason many people like the energy star bottom freezer refrigerator design is that most people go looking in the refrigerator for things much more often than they get things out of the freezer. Putting the freezer underneath the refrigerator instead of the other way around puts all the things they most commonly reach for at a very convenient height. This limits the amount of time people spend bending down to get things out of the refrigerator.
Amana, Blomberg, Bosch, Dacor, GE, General Electric, Haeir, Hotpoint, Jenn-Air, Kenmore, KitchenAid, LG Electronics, Liebherr, Maytag, Miele, Profile, Samsung, Siemens, Sub-Zero, Inc., Summit, Thermadoor, and Whirlpool all have options for those interested in this type of freezer-refrigerator. The more commonly known major brands have more choices in this type of refrigerator than most of the smaller or lesser known companies mentioned above, but all are worth looking into if you want to find the perfect refrigerator for you.
These refrigerators usually cost between 0 and ,000, depending on the brand and style of appliance you choose. For those who want to get really fancy there is the KitchenAid 20.5 Cubic Feet Architect Series II Built-In Bottom Mount Refrigerator in Stainless Steel, which costs over ,000. One of the most affordable options is the GE 20.3 Cubic Feet model in Bisque, Black or White for about 0. As you can see, there are options for most any price range with this type of refrigerator-freezer , with the majority of these refrigerators falling in the ,000 to ,000 price range.
You can find most of the options you are looking for when you go shopping for this type of kitchen appliance. You can get full doors, French doors, or armoire style refrigerators. You can get an energy-efficient refrigerator model with a water and ice dispenser in the door. There are a variety of colors available as well, with the most common being stainless steel, black, and white, though biscuit, bisque, platinum, and stainless look colors are also available.
It is important also to keep in mind that most of the major distributors/resellers of these types of appliances have yearly, seasonal sales - in many parts of the country, this occurs during the winter months - so keep in mind that if you can afford to 'wait' for a few months, you can take advantage of further deep discounting. If you know that your existing refrigerator is soon to go out, do what you can to keep it going until one of these major sales comes to a store in your area.
