These top-rated models will help you select the perfect French door refrigerator with an ice maker for your home. We spoke with experts, including Ladina Schopf (interior designer architect, architect, and founder of LS Projects), to pick models that are stylish and practical, but also affordable.
They provide enough space to store food items for a family. They also have refrigerators as well as smart shelving that you can rearrange, and humidity-controlled crisper cabinets. They are sleek and stylish to match any kitchen aesthetic.
GE Counter Depth French Door Refrigerator
The GE GWE19JYLFS counter-depth French-door refrigerator blends seamlessly into kitchen cabinetry to create a seamless design. It has plenty of storage space in the refrigerator compartment, two humidity-controlled drawers and a large shelf for frozen foods. It is also ENERGY certified by STAR for its energy-efficient performance.
The sleek slate finish makes this one of GE’s most appealing models. Its understated design is ideal for modern kitchens. The fridge is also available in stainless steel if you want a shinier version. The touch panel is easy to use and has a simple design that blends in well with the slate finish. I am impressed by the way GE has opted for an autofill water dispenser, too, instead of a more flashy touchscreen like some other fridges have. It’s also a fantastic feature because it prevents your fridge from overflowing.
It’s a little smaller, but still plenty spacious for most people. french door refrigerator freezer can store up to 23 bags and comes with a flexible and deep bin in the freezer that is ideal for large items like cookie dough trays, or pre-packaged food items. The freezer comes with separate climates, too which can help keep food fresh. Overall, it’s an excellent choice for anyone seeking a top-quality French door fridge that won’t break your budget.
The GE Cafe Series includes some of the most beautiful matte appliances available on the market. The PYE22PYNFS is sure to fail to impress. It’s part a new line of appliances that includes a range, oven, dishwasher, and many more, all in a lovely matte black or white finish. It’s a great option to anyone who is looking for a luxurious appliance at a low cost that will instantly upgrade their kitchen. I like the way they’ve paired the matte finish with some of the best features offered by GE, including a convenient autofill water dispenser as well as settings to make hot drinks.
Bosch Counter Depth French Door Refrigerator
This Bosch refrigerator is minimalist and sleek design that is ideal for modern kitchens. It’s affixed to the countertop and conceals its feet and hinges, making it a subtle design upgrade.
The refrigerator is also energy efficient when compared to the other French door refrigerators we’ve evaluated. It uses 568 kWh per year, which could save you some cash on your electric bills. It also performed well in our fridge tests and scored above average for temperature uniformity. This is the measure of how well refrigerator and freezer maintain temperatures.
With a capacity of 20.8 cubic feet the Bosch fridge is spacious enough to provide space to store your groceries, drinks, and leftovers. The spacious drawers with crisper edges and adjustable shelves allow you to easily organize food items and maximize storage space. The fridge also has a convenient door-in-door ice and water dispenser that won’t take up valuable shelf space.
VitaFresh, a Bosch technology, keeps food fresher up to three times longer than conventional refrigerators which rely on temperature controls. The system balances both the humidity and temperature based on food settings to ensure you don’t waste food and keep your grocery items tasting great. Other food-preserving features are also available, like Eco-Mode to cut down on cooling costs and Holiday Mode to preserve foods during your vacation.
The fridge is equipped with a few user-friendly features, like an easy-to-use LED light which displays the temperature in the present and lets you select your desired setting. It’s also equipped with an easy-to-clean stainless steel interior that’s more durable than traditional chrome finishes. A handy deli tray and a huge freezer that can store pizzas or frozen meals, are also nice features. You can even track the fridge’s performance from your smartphone using the Home Connect app. This is especially useful in the event that you fail to close the fridge after consuming food or drinks, as it will notify you if your door was left open. The reviewer was offered promotional incentives or a sweepstakes entry at the time they wrote this. The fridge is not currently available for purchase.
LG Counter Depth French Door Refrigerator
This sleek refrigerator has lot to provide. Its slim design means it will fit in the majority of kitchens and the mirror-like InstaView panel gives a classy look to any space. The refrigerator is also ENERGY STAR certified and is energy efficient. It has plenty of space. Additionally, it comes with a door-in-door that lets you grab snacks without opening the refrigerator, and the ice dispenser can produce both cubes and crushed ice.
The only issue with this model is its price, which is a bit too high for a counter-depth french-door refrigerator. If you are able to afford it, we would recommend this LG fridge due to its superior storage and smart capabilities. You can control the fridge via your smartphone, and you can program it to remind you to change the filters. You can also make use of the built-in application to keep track of your food’s temperature and expiration dates.
The LG Counter-Depth MAX refrigerator has a door in a door compartment, just like other refrigerators we’ve reviewed. This allows you to keep items in a separate door in the freezer compartment of your refrigerator. This feature makes it simple to access food on the go, but we weren’t sure it offers any additional convenience. The temperature of the Door-in-Door was slightly warmer than other refrigerators and we didn’t believe it was necessary to open another door to store food items.
In addition the fridge is an excellent option when you’re looking for a counter-depth French door fridge. Its spacious interior has plenty of room for fresh food and drinks and has a water dispenser, dual ice makers that can make four types of ice, and adjustable shelves. It also comes with a few smart features that we think are useful, including night mode and the ability to control the fridge with your smartphone.
Take measurements of the space in which the refrigerator will be placed and compare its dimensions to your current fridge to make sure it will fit. Jessica Petrino Ball is an appliance education specialist with AJ Madison. She says that you should also make sure it fits through your hallways and doors.
Frigidaire Counter Depth French Door Refrigerator
This Frigidaire counter-depth fridge is a great choice for kitchens that are a bit tight on space. With a smaller depth than other models, it won’t extend out as far beyond the countertops or eat the floor space. The refrigerator is packed with plenty of storage space, including large bins in the door to store larger items and adjustable shelving racks to hold taller condiment containers. If you’re looking to change the look of your entire kitchen, this refrigerator is available in a stainless steel finish. It is easy to clean and smudge proof.
The Gallery FGHC2331PF comes with a single-access door that makes it easier to get everything in one. This also lets the fridge hang more of cold air and decrease energy consumption and food waste–during regular use.
The fridge is equipped with a Custom Flex Temp drawer which allows you to set temperature independently from the freezer and refrigerator compartments. This means that it can be used as a place for meat/seafood or cold drinks and snacks, or chilled wine. The drawer is a fantastic feature, but it is generally cooler than the other compartments. This can be frustrating for users seeking a specific temperature.
In our performance test, the FGHC2331PF was warm in almost all its interior areas (the spots orange in the heat map). This is a major setback particularly since it’s priced lower than its rivals from Electrolux which performed better in the test and have a good reputation for durability and high-end quality.
The fridge’s other notable features include a dual-ice maker, PureAir RAF-2 air filter and a large crisper that straddles the line between conserving enough moisture to keep your fruits and vegetables fresh and removing excess humidity to prevent spoilage. It’s the only counter-depth model we’ve tested to offer a sliding shelf that lets you adjust its height for the best storage space. It’s an excellent choice for those who prefer the French-door layout, but don’t have more than $2200 in their budget.
