The new generation of refrigerators is here. Here are six incredible features you won't believe you ever lived without.
1. The Family Hub Fridge
This latest and greatest technology in refrigerators brought to you by Samsung is simply amazing.
Who would have thought that your fridge could be connected to Wi-Fi? How cool is that?
The built-in cameras allow you to see what is in your refrigerator from your smartphone (very handy when grocery shopping).
You can browse the web for any recipe you desire.
Family pictures can be uploaded as well as your favorite apps not to mention live streaming your music while you cook.
Check your calendar or leave a note for another family member before you leave your house.
2. Door-In-Door Refrigerator
Put your go-to-favorites front and center when you choose a Door-in-Door refrigerator from LG.
Whether you're grabbing a cool drink or a quick, healthy snack, the Door-in-Door fridge feature has the ideal space for your family's busy lifestyle.
3. Flex Zone Drawer
Samsung's FlexZone Drawer is the small drawer that you find between the refrigerator and freezer compartment on some models.
This intermediate drawer provides a lot of added flexibility you will never get on a regular fridge.
The FlexZone drawers provide four separate temperature settings to provide you with flexibility for how you would like to use the drawer.
I firmly believe most households will benefit from this feature.
4. Dual Ice Makers
Having enough ice in your house is very important.
The Whirlpool WRF993FIFM and the LG LFXS29766S are models that come with 2 ice makers.
GE offers several models that you can put in a second ice maker in the bottom freezer of a French door refrigerator.
With ice makers being conveniently located in the door nowadays, the ice maker does not have that much storage space.
A second ice maker is nice for larger families and households that entertain guests.
5. Twin Chill Feature
GE offers this technology. What is it?
Dual evaporators maintain separate environments in both the fresh food and freezer compartments to manage temperature and humidity levels and keep foods fresh.
Cold, dry air stays in the freezer compartment to prevent freezer burn, and more humid air stays in the fresh food section to keep fresh food fresh longer.
6. Smudge-Proof Stainless Steel Finishes
Who wants to see fingerprints all the time? Not me.
Smudge-Proof Finishes allow you to keep your fridge looking sharp without the constant maintenance.
The Frigidaire Gallery Series offers this feature at a great price.
Also, Maytag and Whirlpool have recently unveiled and made available models that are fingerprint resistant.
High-Tech Fridge Features
As you can see, the refrigerator has clearly moved into the 21st century.
