Best 42' or 48' Side By Side Refrigerator?
Comments (3)I have the Thermador columns in an 18x30 freezer/fridge combination. We have been very happy with them and I'd put them in the place of Viking on your short list. You can save a few hundred dollars by going with the Bosch versions if you don't need the elevator shelf and are okay with the trim variations....See MoreBest 48" Side by Side Refrigerator?
Comments (7)We've had the Jenn-Air side by side, (built in and paneled) for over 6 years now. It has been trouble free with the exception of the ice maker, which failed after about 5 years. A new ice maker cost me about $145 and took me about 10 minutes to change it. We like the fact that 3 different temps can be set in the fridge compartment, one for the meats, one for the veggie and fruit keeper and one for the main fridge. Being older, we like the fact that the stuff we use the most, in either the fridge or the freezer can be kept at height that is convenient for us. We like the crank up and down shelves, the digital readouts for temperatures (4 of them) --meat keeper, veggies, main fridge and freezer. It is very quiet, and the first time I have ever heard any noise whatsover out of it was a few weeks ago after cleaning the condenser area and changing the water filter. I did not get the cover back on correctly and it was blocking air, the fan for the condenser kick on to full speed, still not very noisy but I could hear it. I put the cover on correctly and all was well, again and silence. The JA uses a variable speed compressor as I think most fridges in the Whirlpool family do, along with Miele and Liebher. These allow for better temp control, are more efficient and quieter than the old on/off compressors. In fact, I believe that Jenn-Air now quotes a temp accuracy, (being able to stay at a set temp) of +/- half a degree "F". This of course is "Overkill" but it does give you an idea of what some of the new technology can do. Good luck with your decisions. The best way is to go and look at them in person. that's what we did and the JA won out over the SZ and GE, which back in 2005 were the only 48" built in fridges made.

Comments (10)I actually like having a fridge that doesn't impose a particular type of organization on me. We have a commercial refrigerator in the garage. It's essentially just a big rectangular stainless steel box with adjustable shelves. So, in many ways it is very similar to the Pro 48. We love it. We bought a bunch of plastic crates/boxes to add organization, as appropriate for our use cases. Takes getting used to; but once you do, it's hard going back. The one thing we noticed though was that we had to buy one extra shelve, as commercial fridges are optimized for bulkier items. Sounds as if that wouldn't be a problem with the Pro 48. If money isn't a problem, and if there is sufficient space in the kitchen, then I can see the Pro 48 being a great refrigeration option. If space is more critical, then split into two separate towers, or into a tower and some drawers....See More48" Side by Side or 42" French Door Refrigerator
Comments (3)Suzanne, in case you didn't realize it, the SZs can also be installed flush. See this recent thread. [sub-zero-fridge-built-in-vs-integrated[(https://www.houzz.com/discussions/sub-zero-fridge-built-in-vs-integrated-dsvw-vd~5428214?n=19)...See Morechazas
