    Top-Freezer Refrigerators (46)

    Top-freezers offer the most storage for their size and are the least expensive. Top-scoring refrigerators usually deliver more consistent temperatures.

    . . .
    Bottom-freezer refrigerators (20)

    Bottom-freezers keep refrigerator items within easy reach. Most models we tested chill and freeze adequately and include pullout shelves or bins, split shelves, spill guards, and room in the door to hold a gallon of milk.

    . . .
    French-Door Refrigerators (122)

    Once you know how much space you have, particularly the width, our recommended models will help you find a refrigerator that fits in that space. Models that have higher energy-efficiency scores use less electricity for their capacity.

    . . .
    Side-by-side refrigerators (48)

    Side-by-sides are ideal for narrow kitchens but are the least space-efficient inside. Higher-end models offer half shelves. And if your household isn't large, remember that a smaller refrigerator is likely to use less electricity overall than a larger model.

    Built-in refrigerators (32)

    Built-ins align with cabinets. Most models we tested chill and freeze adequately and include pullout shelves or bins, spill guards, and room in the door for a gallon of milk. Top-scoring models usually deliver more consistent temperatures.

    When it comes to refrigerators, your options nowadays go far beyond getting a glass of ice water without having to open the door. With custom panels, you can get a built-in that matches your kitchen cabinets. Some refrigerators offer a door-in-door design, allowing you to access frequently used items from the door shelves without fully opening the door. You can even pull out a refrigerated drawer... and find it full of cold sodas, chilled wine, or kid-friendly grab-and-go snacks. Our fridge-by-fridge guide helps you choose the right type for your family, demystifies claimed vs. usable storage space, and helps you to find the quietest models—so that you, and your groceries, can chill out.We’ll also cover everything you need to know when it comes time to buy a new fridge, from the measurements you need in hand to finding models that are still in stock, despite pandemic-related appliance shortages.
