Refrigerators Types
Single-Door Refrigerators are the most affordable type, and its compact body makes it great for space saving.
Two-Door Refrigerators either have freezers located at the top for convenient access to frozen storage, or have freezers at the bottom for easy access to fresh foods.
Side-by-Side Refrigerators make good use of space by splitting the ref between fresh food and frozen food compartments. Most side-by-side models allocate a bit more space for the fridge. Adjustable shelves also provide more storage flexibility. Side-by-side units also require less clearance to open the doors, making it ideal for compact kitchens.
