About Side-by-side refrigerators

• The most economical fridges are the top-mounted
  freezer models.
• These largely basic machines offer the most
  storage capacity for the money, with models
  falling in the 500 to 700 range.
• If youre tall, especially, you may not
  appreciate bending over every time you need
  something from the more heavily trafficked
  fridge.

Factors to be consider while buying side-by-side
refrigerators

• Energy efficiency

• Reliability

12
Energy efficiency Side-by-side fridges consume
more electricity than both top- and bottom-mount
configurations (discounting French).
13
Reliability These components have a less than
stellar track record. Worse, the dispensers can
increase the appliances energy consumption by as
much as 20.

About Top-mounted freezer

• The most economical fridges are the top-mounted
  freezer models.
• These largely basic machines offer the most
  storage capacity for the money,with models
  falling in the 500 to 700 range.
• If youre tall, especially, you may not

Energy efficiency These models lack in
convenience they make up for in energy
efficiency. Compared with side-by-side fridges,
even those bearing the Energy Star seal,
top-mounted fridges consume about 10-25 less
electricity.
17
Reliability Outfitted with troublesome water
dispensers give them solid reliability ratings as
a class. The most likely component to cause
trouble is the automatic ice maker.
18
Factors to be consider while buying Bottom-mount
Refrigerators

• Energy efficiency

• Reliability

19
About Bottom-mount Freezer

• Bottom-mount freezers, including the popular
  French door style, are near the top of the fridge
  price pyramid.
• Both the single-door and French door
  configurations offer the convenience of a fully
  accessible upper fridge compartment above a roomy
  pull-out drawer freezer.

20
Energy Efficiency Bottom-mounts, French
door-style fridges behave more like side-by-sides
when it comes to efficiency. Having two doors
where theres normally one decreases overall
efficiency, raising average annual operating
costs by about 10.
21
Reliability Bottom-freezer types tend to
experience more repair issues than top-freezer
models, particularly in units with automatic
icemakers.
