Other Speciality Types of Fridges
Here is a selection of less-common types of fridges with a few special features.
Refrigerator Styles
The French Door Fridge
This fridge is the combination between a bottom-freezer model and a side-by-side model. The french doors open for access to the refrigerator compartment but take up less space to open than a normal fridge.
There are three-door models, as well as four-door models that provide access to two freezer compartments.
Advantages: Great aesthetic choice. Shorter fridge doors accommodate smaller kitchen spaces. Extremely versatile with many options for organization and storage.
Disadvantages: Despite their advantages, they are some of the most expensive styles of fridges.
Counter-Depth (Full-Size)
Counter-depth fridges are usually similar to the french door style, but they have a shallower profile in order to align with standard cabinetry sizes. This is to help fridges blend seamlessly with a kitchen’s design.
Compact
The compact fridge is a small version of a traditional fridge. They are usually found in dorms, offices, and garages. They are good for light use, but they usually do not include much freezer space. Freezers are usually a tinier compartment inside of the fridge.
Freezer-less
Freezer-less fridges are fridges without any freezer space at all. They are good for people who have a separate freezer or have no need to freeze anything at all.
Wine & Beverage Coolers
These are fridges that are designed specifically for cooling wine and other drinks. They are sometimes known as ‘cellars’ and they come in a variety of sizes ranging from compact to full-size fridges. They are built for easy organization of bottles and drinks. They may contain multiple temperature zones in some of the deluxe models.
