Types of refrigerators
Side-by-side refrigerators
Side-by-side refrigerators are the ones that put fresh food at eye-level in the refrigerator. When considering a side-by-side, you need to take care of the capacity and interior flexibility. In some models, the compartments are narrower than those you will find in top- or bottom-mount models. As a result you may not accommodate larger items or packages you frequently store. It is better to select a refrigerator with adjustable bins and shelves so you can confirm the available space to suit your storage needs. Models that offer space-saving freezer features such as in-door ice makers that move ice to the freezer door are better options as they free up a lot of valuable shelf space.
Generally this type of refrigerator will require more kitchen space than other types due to the overall size and the area needed to open both doors. Size of standard side-by-side refrigerators range from approximately 31 inches to 36 inches. Depths range from about 28 inches to 34 inches and the heights of most models range between 66 inches and 69 inches, making them taller than top-mounts.
Freezer on top
This type is the most common type of Refrigerators available. It also offers the most extensive style choices.
Standard widths for this type of refrigerators range from 23 inches to approximately 36 inches. Depth, 27 inches to 33 inches, including the door handle. Most top-mount refrigerators are 60 inches to 69 inches in height. Because of their configuration, top-mounts offer more capacity than other model types. Eye-level freezers also offer easier access to food stored in the freezer.
Freezer on bottom
Bottom-mount freezers are not as widely available as other refrigerator types so far. But most major manufacturers today offer at least one model. The bottom-mount design is a good option for those households that prefer fresh food selections at eye level.
The dimensions of bottom-mount refrigerators are generally the same as those of the larger top-mounts
