Do you like your french door fridge?
Comments (3)We like ours but in my opinion a single door is probably more convenient if you have the space. We bought our french door because we like the looks better than a single door. (same as "theanimala") There were no space issues that required us to buy the french door. I usually know which door to open to get what I want because I am the one that puts things away but my family members tend to open both doors. Not a problem, just different than a single door. In our experience, it's easier for a door to stay slightly ajar on french doors than on a single door model. There is an alarm on the left door that goes off if it is not closed completely, but it only sounds after 2 minutes or so. Having said that, I'd probably buy the FD again if given the chance....See MoreDo you like your single door bottom freezer fridge?
Comments (22)Nope. There just isn't enough freezer space. UGH!! With the pull-out basket, you really lose a lot of space as compared to the old, freezer-on-top, shelf but no pull-out style. Granted, you have to have a pull-out with a bottom freezer (a shelf wouldn't work well), but, it's such a waste of space. If I had a separate freezer elsewhere in the house, I wouldn't mind so much, but as it is, I feel *very* limited in how much freezer space I have -- and that's for just one or two people. If I had to feed a whole family with such a small freezer, I'd really find it difficult -- unless we ate out a whole heck of a lot (actually, I'd just HAVE to put in at least a small chest freezer somewhere in the house!). <:>Um, yes, I *do* like to cook. And buy stuff on sale. Hence the need for a decent-sized freezer. ;P So you might want to consider whether the freezer space will be sufficient for you. I didn't realize how much less space I would have, even though I chose the largest fridge/freezer I could -- *and*, it's larger than my old freezer-on-top, yet holds less frozen food. Sigh....See MoreDo you like your ducasse or shoji slider door?
Comments (3)Doing some research and it looks like these are called "converging sliding doors" or barn doors. Seems like Johnson Hardware has a pretty good system, too....See MorePainted MDF Cabinet Door for Sink cabinet? Scary?.
Comments (1)There is water resistant as well as water proof (exterior) MDF. We use the water resistant type on almost all we do. It does not swell when gets wet. The problem is probably nobody will make you a door using it....See MoreDeck The Halls
