Nothing is quite as fashionable as the French door refrigerator right now. Okay, so you think standard but if you look just a little closer you'll notice a combination of practicality with a little touch of modern flare. The effect is a beautiful yet well-designed and adaptable refrigerator. The dual door design is a major feature of the French door model and is not unlike the general side by side refrigerators commonly seen. Although similar in many ways it stands out with an added bonus of a bottom compartment that acts as a pullout freezer drawer. Unlike most freezers both frozen and fresh produce can be placed in the compartment. With slender doors that extend unusually high above floor level this stylish design allows for those tighter' spots. The French door model certainly makes for a desirable design fitting all size kitchens. The benefit of a dual door design on a French door model is much the same as on a side by side refrigerator. Not to mention features like the in-door ice and water dispenser. But have you ever wondered what it would be like with a TV installed? It must be noted that with the incorporation of some of these wonderful features loss of storage space is inevitable. Another important area to investigate in a fridge is its capacity. Unlike many others French door models are some of the widest fridges on the current market. Large items can now take advantage of the ample space provided by the use of the full width of both the freezer and refrigerator sections. With so much space being used for storage you would assume that a large amount of room would be required on the exterior interestingly this is not so. By cutting' short the design of the dual doors space has been saved by incorporating a bottom freezer. Another added advantage of a French door model is the functional counter deep option. In this case, the extra 5 or 6 inches can create a lot more workspace in your kitchen. Sometimes called the double door or bottom freezer mount refrigerator, French door refrigerators are practical and highly functional. Such designs allow for maximum storage space and the increase in work area. With a unique design it's no wonder most people want to take it home with them.
