QUICK TIPS
Refrigerators
There are three basic types:
- Top freezer with bottom refrigerator
- Bottom freezer with top refrigerator
- Side-by-side freezer and refrigerator
How they compare
The top-freezer model is the least
expensive and tends to be the most roomy. The bottom-freezer unit allows
easier access to the refrigerator but you can’t put a built-in
ice-and-water dispenser in it. The side-by-side offers easier access to
both compartments. It’s not as energy efficient, though, as the other
two and its compartments can feel annoyingly narrow.
