How to Choose the Smallest American Fridge Freezer

American fridge freezers occupy an enormous amount of space, so it's crucial to measure your kitchen carefully to ensure one will fit. You don't have to leave a space or be at risk of damaging other white goods by hitting it.

Some manufacturers make slim American fridge freezers specifically designed for the UK market. They measure 70cm in width and feature all the fashion storage capacity, modern technology you'd would.

Size

If you have limited space in your kitchen, freezer and you want to add a striking American fridge freezer, opt for one of our slim models. They are smaller and offer more storage space than traditional freestanding appliances. They look great when pushed back against a set of kitchen cabinets for sleeker appearance.

American fridge freezers have larger footprints than their UK counterparts, so verify the measurements carefully to make sure they fit. Note the height, too - some models can reach over 180cm, which is too high for some homes. Use our refrigerator sizes guide to help you compare various models against each other - or ask a sales representative in store to help.

It is worth checking the energy efficiency of any American fridge freezer that you're considering purchasing. The ratings are indicated with letters and vary from A to, with A being the most efficient. Select a model that has an energy rating of 'E' or greater to reduce your energy bills. You might also want to check the annual running costs per kWh in information about the product, as this can provide you with an accurate estimate of the amount it will cost to operate your new appliance.

Capacity

American refrigerator freezers come with a lot of space, so you can put away your weekly food items. Look for models with up to 700 litres of storage capacity - that's enough for most families. You'll usually find separate freezer compartments and an automatic ice dispenser too and digital displays allow you to monitor your energy use and check you've closed the door correctly.

Choose a model that has two cooling systems to keep the freezer and fridge at different temperatures. This stops the cold, dry air that comes from the freezer from causing dehydration of the food in the refrigerator and can help stop smells transferring. It can also be more efficient than a single-zone appliance that can cut down your annual electric bills by 10%.

If you're working with a smaller space in your kitchen slimline American fridge freezers are available for smaller homes. The Hisense RQ560N4WCF is a fantastic choice, with a low-energy rating of 'E' as well as a holiday mode that lets you save energy when the fridge isn't full. It's one of the quietest-running american integrated fridge freezer fridge freezers we've tested, and it's designed to fit in an existing cabinet, making it ideal for kitchens with small or awkward shapes. Be sure to measure your cabinets before buying any white goods to ensure the new fridge freezer will fit, and allow enough space for ventilation at the back, sides and the top too.

Design

The appeal of a fridge freezer in the American style is that it can be either pushed back to fit into an existing kitchen appliance for a more sleek appearance or left as a freestanding piece to create an impressive piece. It is essential to ensure that your new appliance fits the space, if you decide for a standalone design or one which is housed in cabinets. Also note the distance from your cooker so you can calculate the amount of clearance needed to open and close the doors. All refrigerators and freezers need a certain space around them for air flow.

A slimmer option to full-size models, this fridge freezer from Hotpoint is a combination of an upright fridge with a freezer drawer-style.

Features

There are also models with ice makers which automatically make ice in a separate tray with crushed ice or manual ones inside the freezer compartment, where you simply add water and then turn a dial to release a cube.
