Some of our fridges also allow for the option of mounting the door on the right-hand or the left-hand side. This customizable freedom means you can adjust the appliance to the space you have, opening the fridge door to either right or the left depending on what is most convenient.

We also read a slew of other refrigerator reviews, info about reliability, and guides on how to pick and install fridges. For previous versions of this guide, we also spoke to several industry experts, including brand representatives, dealers, and repair technicians.

What we can tell you is that after analyzing more than 28,000 customer reviews across 34 different fridges, it is very uncommon to find criticism of fridges for doing a poor job keeping foods fresh, outside of cases where the cooling system was obviously defective or broken.

Among refrigerators from the five major brands, LG fridges seem to make their owners the happiest. In a Wirecutter reader survey, far more real-life LG owners said they were satisfied with their fridges than owners of other brands did, and fewer said they hated their fridges.

The shelving and organization in LG fridges earned especially high ratings in our reader survey, as LG beat the other major brands in satisfaction with perceived capacity, storage ability, and accessibility of contents.

The big caveat with LG refrigerators is that some of its larger fridges are more likely than those of other brands to stop cooling, especially older models. It has been a big problem over the past decade, and although the company seems to have corrected the issue with most of its current models, there are still some side-by-side models with a really poor track record.

In 2020, LG settled a class-action lawsuit regarding faulty compressors that may have affected up to 1.6 million fridges sold from 2014 to 2017, all of which were 33- and 36-inch-wide French-door and side-by-side models.

We did find that LG fridges were slightly less likely to break in minor ways that are annoying (though often tolerable). So with an LG refrigerator, you might be less likely to deal with nuisances like broken shelves, handles, doors, lights, ice makers, or water dispensers. Owners also cited temperature inconsistencies less often and were notably less likely to say that organizing the fridge and keeping track of items was difficult. Consumer Reports puts LG near the front of the pack for reliability, too.

GE is also one of the handful of brands whose customer service seemed to generate fewer negative sentiments among our survey respondents, especially compared with LG and Samsung. GE has its own repair fleet in some metro areas, which might have something to do with it. To be clear, our data suggests that GE French-door fridges need repairs at a rate similar to that of LG French-door models, and we did see some complaints about customer service among the analyzed reviews. Minor problems like noise may be slightly more common, and a small percentage of customer reviews still cite major cooling failures. But you might have a better chance of getting a repair done promptly under warranty.

Small models (10 cubic feet) from smaller brands, such as the Magic Chef MCDR1000WE, start around $400. The customer ratings for these lowest-end fridges tend to be decent, though some models (like this retro-styled Galanz) seem more prone to cooling failures than a typical fridge. You can find even cheaper fridges, but they tend to be very small, almost like mini fridges.

In our reader survey, French-door fridges almost always had better ratings for owner satisfaction than the other two most-popular styles, side-by-sides and top-freezers, in everything from perceived capacity to storage and organization to temperature control to looks. Overall satisfaction is where we saw the most dramatic difference: From our research, it seems like all these little ways French-door fridges seem more comfortable or convenient to use add up to a huge statistical advantage.

Price range: As of late 2022, French-door fridges run about $2,000 for a basic model, $2,400 for through-the-door ice, and up to $4,000 for feature-rich or design-forward models from major brands. Built-in models from luxury brands can cost five figures.

Price range: At this writing, top-freezer fridges start at about $850 for a small, wire-shelf model (sometimes a little less on sale), about $1,000 for larger sizes in stainless finish with glass shelves, and up to $3,500 for retro styles with an American flag or Mickey Mouse finish.

Pros: Top-freezer models are affordable, available in a wide range of sizes, and efficient. No bending required to reach frozen items. These fridges are also more reliable than other types, according to some sources, though we found that they might be more prone to minor, nuisance-type problems.

Price range: At this writing, bottom-freezer fridges run about $600 for the smallest, most basic models, $1,400 and up for larger capacities and better creature comforts, $1,500 and up for narrow but tall European-style models, and $2,000 to $15,000 (and beyond) for built-in models.

Cons: The full-width doors on wider models may be hard to open completely in some kitchens. These fridges also have fewer premium features than other styles. Bucket-style freezers (on some models) can be hard to organize, and swing-open freezers (on other models) are very low to the ground. Retrieving frozen items requires bending.

Mainstream brands often sell standard-depth and counter-depth variants of similar fridges, and the models tend to have a lot in common, apart from the shallower dimensions and smaller storage of the counter-depth versions. Counter-depth models are very common overall: In a Wirecutter reader survey, more than 30% of the 5,000-plus respondents said that they owned a counter-depth fridge.

Often people open up their refrigerators, cupboards and cabinets to find foods that are beyond their sell- buy and use- buy dates. While it is always better to be safe than sorry, the following guidelines and information should help to take the guesswork out of determining whether or not your food is safe to eat.

The refrigerator only has to stay if it is a permanently installed and built-in improvement or if it is included on the Non-Realty Items Addendum to Contract (TXR 1924, TREC OP-M). The One to Four Family Residential Contract (Resale) (TXR 1601, TREC 20-16) signed by the parties controls the conveyance and states that the contract contains the entire agreement of the parties. Statements made in previous negotiations and MLS advertisements that are not contained in the contract will not be enforceable against the seller. This situation is an example of why it is important to ensure that all material elements of prior negotiations are contained in the signed contract.

Buyers agent fault. No ethics issue on seller/seller agent. For all we know, there was a competing offer of same price which asked for the fridge and they accepted this offer because it was a better offer by not asking for the fridge. Buyers agent needs to eat this one as they should have known to put it in writing.
