Liebherr Side-by-Side or French Doors: what's the difference and which refrigerator to choose?

If the choice is for a large and roomy refrigerator, buyers pay attention to multi-chamber refrigerators such as Side-by-Side< /a> or French Doors. How do they differ, and how to choose the right one?

Features of Liebherr Side-by-Side Refrigerator

The side-by-side refrigerator has two doors, opening like a cabinet. Sometimes one of the doors can be divided and cover two different compartments. The refrigerator and freezer have separate doors and are located parallel to each other: the freezer is usually located on the left side of the refrigerator. One of the cameras, if necessary, can be turned off to save money if it is not used. The temperature is regulated in the chambers separately, and the total volume of equipment can reach 600 liters. The chambers can occupy the same space (the width is about the same), or one of the compartments can be larger (one of the chambers is wider than the other). For example, the capabilities of the Liebherr SBSesf 7222-21 001 model include 8 freezing containers, where up to 20 g of meat can be stored at the same time.

Side-by-Side refrigerators are also distinguished by increased functionality: they almost always have a wine compartment, sections for fresh vegetables, an ice maker, etc.

Features of the Liebherr French Doors refrigerator

The main difference between French Doors and the previous version is the user-friendly location of the refrigeration compartment, always on top in a hinged type. Under the refrigerator compartment there are two drawers: a classic-type freezer and a temperature-controlled drawer that can act as any of the chambers as needed. There may be more boxes, at least two. The lower drawers can be retractable or hinged, as well as the upper ones. Premium models may have a built-in minibar with a transparent glass door.

Another advantage of French Doors is the wide shelves of the refrigerator compartment, where you can place a tall and wide dish like a roasted boar. The total volume can be up to 600 liters, but the share of the cold store is usually higher.
