Size
It is important to consider the size and capacity of the refrigerator freezer before you choose one. We offer freestanding models that can sit on top of a counter, and integrated models that can be tucked into the cupboard or under the sink. If you choose an integrated design, it's important that your fridge freezer fits in the cabinet you already have and that there is enough space left to allow for ventilation. You should also consider whether you're seeking more space for frozen food or chilled food since some models have separate compartments for each. You can pick from models that have reversible doors, so you can choose whether you want the fridge to open either on the left or right side, based on the layout of your kitchen.
Both French door and side-by-side refrigerator capacities vary but most will range between 20 and 28 cubic feet. Certain models let you rearrange refrigerator and freezer storage space to maximize the capacity to meet your needs, like this Whirlpool refrigerator with Infinity Slide Shelving.

This can vary depending on the brand you select. Certain refrigerators are capable of holding more than others.

Energy efficiency
The energy efficiency of a refrigerator freezer can be a big factor when making your final choice. The energy rating label will tell you how much it costs to run on average per year. This figure is calculated based on the amount electricity it consumes over a test period - and this is measured with the fridge or freezer partially filled, just as it is in real life.
side by side refrigerators that have higher energy ratings are believed to be more efficient - although this doesn't necessarily mean that they're cheaper to run than models with lower ratings. Generally speaking, larger fridges draw more electricity than smaller ones, regardless of their energy rating.
Refrigerator dimensions can vary based on style and capacity however, there are standard measurements for both French door and side by side configurations. Both are available as freestanding units and also as built-in (also known as integrated) refrigerators which can be concealed behind cabinet doors.
If you prefer quick access to fresh food or fresh produce, the French door model may be a good option - with its double doors and wide layout that keeps more cold air in and provides a clear line of sight to all the fresh food on offer. However, this design comes with a higher price point than side-by-side models.
