Whether you are equipping a new home, switching up with new appliances or expanding your family food repertoire, the design of your home’s kitchen space is of utmost importance. Having the right appliances help us to rethink how we purchase, prepare, and store food in the long run. Regardless of your kitchen shape or size, we can all agree that the refrigerator is one of the most important pieces of equipment in the kitchen that plays a central role that keeps our food safe, cool and fresh for longer to increase its shelf life.
As far as design goes, standard refrigerators are often boxy and boring meant to serve their primary function, but modern kitchen has allowed for more innovative design and out-of-the-box features to match the current lifestyle. One design that has been highly sought-after in recent years is the French door refrigerator, a model that became popular in the late 1990s. Just like the French door it is named after, these refrigerators have two doors that open outward, with the split in the middle – and can be opened a door at a time or together.
So, what makes this refrigerator popular with consumers today?
Innovative & Intelligent Interior Design
The layout of the French door refrigerator is more logical than that of a traditional refrigerator. As many of us do, we are far more likely to open the refrigerator compared to the freezer. The French door design means that everything you will need will be at chest level, so you can easily see and access everything in your refrigerator.
As we shift towards sleeker, more minimalist home designs, the narrow doors on a French door refrigerator will take up less kitchen space when they are open; particularly ideal for you if you have to operate around a tight kitchen space. With doors that take up half the width of the standard refrigerator door, you will appreciate the French door refrigerator as it helps improve your mobility around the kitchen, while making your kitchen space feel larger.
Effective & Efficient Energy Conservation
Many of us have the habit of walking over to the refrigerator just to take few too many quick looks, especially on warmer days. However, did you know that every time you open your refrigerator, cold air escapes and the refrigerator needs to cool itself back down to optimal temperature through consuming energy?
While this also happens for French door refrigerators, opening just one door allows you to keep half of the refrigerator compartment closed while you peruse your snack options. This means that the fridge can stay cool longer even with a door open and will then use less energy to return to and maintain its internal temperature.
Full Shelves & Flexible Storage
French door refrigerators are known for their internal space, and this can be attributed to its overall design. With two doors on the refrigerator on top and the freezer below, there is a lot of space to store food products within. When swinging open the doors, you will find that French door refrigerators usually have wide shelves and larger bins in the doors, making it easy to store bigger, taller items – like large meats cartons of milk, wine bottles, and more.
Furthermore, the freezer at the bottom often features deep, slide out racks, enabling easy organization when needed. This means that you will not need to bend down to rummage through your freezer drawer and can instead just slide out the rack to manage your food needs comfortably.
