Water Dispenser
If you’d rather have your water and ice through the refrigerator, rather than via an external dispenser, consider a French door fridge freezer with an integrated water maker that is filtered. They are available on conventional and smart refrigerators (like our top model, the LG LRFLC2706S). The dispenser is operated with just one hand and is triggered by sensors. It produces a lot of ice (3 1/2 lbs per day).

Fridge freezer compartments on French door models are broader than those on side by side refrigerators, which allows them to store larger items such as sheet pans pizza boxes, and casseroles.
A separate freezer drawer is another typical feature of the French door fridge. This allows you to store high-demand drinks and snacks or food items that can be stored at a lower temperature (like wine) than the rest. Some refrigerators, including our top pick, feature a four-door design, which incorporates an adjustable drawer that is located between the freezer and fridge.
The fridge is equipped with a built-in kit for easy installation. It allows you to place the fridge in your kitchen cabinet or wall cutout so long as there’s an even surface and gas and electrical connections.
