If you’re okay with a single-door fridge, you can get a bit more for your money with a standard two-door option like LG’s fridge. It holds 25.5 cubic feet, sports a bottom freezer and still has plenty of room for all your food, including an extra full-width drawer along the bottom.
If you’re going for the gusto, four-door fridges offer a full-width drawer in between the standard fridge chamber and the freezer. Samsung calls this their “FlexZone” drawer since you can assign a different temperature in it than in the main fridge. Their model gives you 27.8 cubic feet and offers several other niceties, including an auto-filling water pitcher, ice maker, and a “food showcase” door for quick access to your in-door storage.
Not everyone’s a fan of the bottom freezer drawer. If you prefer the layout of a tall, skinny freezer, a more traditional side-by-side fridge is still a great choice. GE’s model, totaling 25.3 cubic feet, features adjustable door bins, three interior drawers and an external ice and water dispenser for easy access.
While a lot of fridges cost $1,000 or more, Frigidaire has you set for a reliable option that won’t break the bank. Their affordable model clocks in at 13.9 cubic feet — it doesn’t have as much space as the other options on this list, especially in its top-mounted freezer, but it'll do the job admirably for the price.
