Side by Side Refrigerator - Decision Guide

Hello everyone, looking for a new refrigerator maybe you can help me with that.

I have already picked out two RS694N4TC2 or RS670N4BC3 both are from Hisense or NRS9182BX from Gorenje

Or do you have any advice or recommendation

That is rubbish. The brands alone. I would always go for Samsung with SBS, they are really very good. Alternatively Bosch or Siemens

I wouldn’t choose a classic side-by-side either, but rather a "French Door," which in my opinion offers a more sensible layout because it uses the entire width.

As for the brand, I wouldn’t be too critical when it comes to refrigerators. Our last refrigerator was a "Premiere" (belongs to Amica, as far as I know). It’s been 14 years old now and still runs.
When I think about it; I can’t remember ever hearing from anyone that a refrigerator broke down.

Hello,
from today's perspective, I would not take a side by side at all, but two 60cm devices at 200cm height, one pure refrigerator and one pure freezer. Together, even as A+++, clearly cheaper than a large side by side. With the normal side by sides, the freezer part would be definitely too small for me.
Historically, we have two combination devices (with cooling in the upper half and freezer in the lower part). One is in the basement, one in the kitchen. And that is a bit annoying because what you are looking for is always in the other device.

Regards,

Andreas

My girlfriend doesn't like the look of these French doors that much

Yes, if you have the space for it I agree with you, otherwise French door is simply much more practical than SBS
