Tips for selecting a new fridge
>>FROM PAGE 2
door bottom mount (dou- ble fridge doors on top, freezer on bottom), Side by Side (fridge on the right and freezer on the left), Bottom Freezer (single fridge door on top, freezer on bottom), among others. If you have a narrow kitchen, choose a refrigerator type and size that allows the refrigerator and freezer doors to open all the way.
Capacity pro tip: Some fridge models are more suitable for certain house- hold sizes. French door re- frigerators are optimal for larger household sizes, as they offer greater capacity, while a small 24-inch fridge with a bottom freezer might be better for smaller house- holds.
CHEERS TO YOU: ASSESS YOUR BEVERAGE NEEDS
Choosing a refrigerator that keeps your beverages at the right temperature is key, from a fast, reliable
ice dispenser to specialty beverage storage within the fridge. With the Bosch
QuickIcePro System, you can avoid frequent runs to the grocery store to keep your drinks ice-cold. Or, with the Refreshment Center, there’s nothing to “wine” about — it’s like a wine cellar for your re- frigerator, storing bottles at the optimal temperature and humidity.
AMERICA’S NEXT TOP (FRIDGE) MODEL: CHOOSE A DESIGN THAT FITS YOUR STYLE
From timeless stainless steel to bold black stainless steel, choose the finish that makes the right statement in your kitchen. Stainless steel offers a classic/traditional feel; black stainless steel is stylish and functional; cus- tom panel ready refrig- erators install fully flush for clean lines and a uniform style. Some refrigerators are even finished with premium glass over brushed stainless
steel — a great option for a
sleeker look.
YOUR SAVING GRACE: CHOOSE ENERGY-SAVING APPLIANCES
Sustainability is key to a forever home. Be on the lookout for appliances that are energy efficient, sav- ing both the environment and your wallet. Since your fridge will be running 24/7, select a model that is ENER- GY STAR® certified. Some ENERGY STAR® certified refrigerators feature high- efficiency compressors, generating less heat/energy, and an Eco Mode, which au- tomatically adjusts tempera- tures in the appliance.
BACK TO THE BASICS: KEEPING IT FRESH
Consider how your refrig- erator can help you keep food cold and fresh while lim- iting food waste. First, think about your typical trip to the grocery store. What perish- ables do you usually buy, or want to buy? The items in your bag may influence the interior layout and shelving options you’ll want in a fridge — be sure to choose one with greater storage flexibility.
For example, a large, “smart” storage compart- ment is best for fruit and veg- etable lovers. The FarmFresh System from Bosch keeps produce fresher, longer, by automatically adjusting the humidity and temperature based on the food setting se- lected. Wide gallon door bins are best for families that buy multiple milk jugs. A colder chiller drawer is the perfect spot for meat and fish. For smaller items and hard-to- place, tall bottles, opt for a fridge that offers adjustable shelving to maximize space.
