When you’re looking to buy a new refrigerator for your home, there are four main things to keep in mind: Capacity, size, type and features you might need.

How to choose refrigerator capacity by family size

Different family sizes have varying needs, and therefore require different refrigerator capacities. Here's a breakdown:
 

Types of refrigerators 

Refrigerators and fridge freezers come in different types, such as: 

Single door fridge 

A single door refrigerator, as its name suggests, has only one door that provides access to both the refrigeration and freezer compartments. Capacity of a one door fridge typically falls between 50 to 250 litres. Some brands such as Electrolux even offers single door fridges with up to 470L. 

Double door refrigerator (or 2- door refrigerator)  

A double door fridge has separate doors for the refrigeration and freezer compartments, typically arranged vertically. They are suitable for small to medium-sized families and sub-categorized into:

• Top freezer refrigerator: Has a freezer compartment at the top and typically offers between 150 to 300 litres.
• Bottom freezer refrigerator: Has a freezer compartment at the bottom, which means your fridge shelves are higher up and easier to reach. Their average capacity ranges from 250 to 450 litres. 

Side-by-side refrigerator

This type of refrigerator comes with fridge and freezer side by side, which makes the freezer more accessible. They can store between 400 to 650 litres, catering to larger families or those who like to stock up.

French door refrigerator (or 4-door refrigerator)

What size refrigerator do you need? 

Choosing the right refrigerator size is about more than just kitchen fit—it's about aligning with your storage demands and lifestyle. Here's a guide to find your perfect fridge size:

• Space: Ensure there's ample room for the fridge in your kitchen, including space for ventilation.
• Usage: Reflect on your shopping patterns. Are your trips to the store weekly or monthly? Do you stock up on frozen items or lean towards fresh produce?
• Family size: Bigger families often need larger fridges. If you're thinking of expanding your family soon, consider opting for a more spacious fridge now to meet future demands.
• Special features: Be aware that certain refrigerators may have additional compartments or features that occupy more space.

Other factors to consider when buying a refrigerator 

Installation 

Installation cost and effort don’t vary much between different refrigerator types, but size of course affects the installation. If you buy a fridge that can be connected to a water line, keep the availability of a connection in mind as well.  

Energy efficiency 

How many watts a refrigerator consumes is a common concern of many buyers. The more energy a fridge can save, the better for our environment.
