8 years agoI put the Electrolux twins in my new build kitchen. Have used them for 5 months and really like them. My family's first reaction to them was that they are HUGE...need a good size kitchen for them as they do take up a lot of space. I really like them...tons of room and good organization.
although the smudge proof stainless definately smudges...there are always fingerprints around the handle. Not a great pic but at least you can see them installed

Electrolux vs Frigidaire ALL Freezer/Refrigerators
Comments (5)We were able to find the Frigidaire All freezer/frig combo in stock and on display at a appliance store about 70 miles from us - we drove up, took a look at them, and bought them. They are in storage right now, so I have no idea how they will work once installed, but we were impressed with them enough to buy them. Comparing the specs of the Elextrolux, and seeing what looked like more reported problems with them, we were happy to go with the "lower end" Frigidaire. Time will tell if we were right! The other plus is the Enegry Star rating, and the ice maker (we didn't want a water dispenser)...The ice maker is the simple type in the top corner and takes up little space. The best is the price for how much space you gain....See MoreElectrolux ICON fridge/freezer - No or Yes?
Comments (5)Another datapoint. I bought the 36" side-by-side, and then read some of the negative stories reported here and elsewhere. Started to get "net panic" - I hear that there's a similar problem in medicine with everybody self-diagnosing themselves with cancer and brain tumors based on what they read on the web, but I digress. I've had it for 3 months now with absolutely no problems. Biggest negative is that it is really a dressed-up Frigidaire - At the store you can see lower-priced Frigidaire models that are functionally the same - water filter in same place, control panel with temp readout is the same etc, just that the shelves are not as snazzy, and of course much more commonplace in looks. So basically the Icon is a Frigidaire in Sub-Zero clothing. But it looks great, price is right, and mine at least has been trouble-free, so why not?...See MoreElectrolux or Frigidaire full fridge/full freezer Help!
Comments (13)We had our Frigidaire pair for over 5 years. Per GW advice I bought the 4 year warranty which turned out to be a good buy as the freezer has needed repairs once. No issues with the fridge. We are a family of 4 and love love our twin pair. I have both in my kitchen and love the convenience of not having to think about what I can fit in the fridge. I buy a lot of fresh vegies and it keeps them along with plenty of room for drinks and lunches. I am currently doing a remodel where I designed one wall to contain the twin pair. I have the Thermador gas range, an Electrolux dishwasher, a Miele steam combi oven and a Miele convection oven. No they don't all match but I am one to cook in my kitchen and figure that the next owner will replace them all anyways....See Morefrigidaire and electrolux Fridge and Freezer Twins
Comments (0)Hello, Has anyone here of Electrolux icon discounting the side by side fridge and freezer with the long handles? I heard Frigidaire is launching a new set. My fear was last years model of Frigidaire had a lot of denting and oil canning on the front of the doors....See Moremommytofive

8 years agoI didn't compare those brands, but simply got the cheapest pair of twins that fit my requirements: Figidaire. I love them! Its been 3 years now. It's unbelievable how long fruits, even strawberries, stay fresh. The handles look pristine when I'm the only one in the kitchen, but look disgusting when my kids use it. (Honestly, some people's kids...) So there's always a grey microfiber cloth on the handle for quick wipe-ups.

8 years agoI have the Frigidaire Twins and they have been perfect for 8 years. Yes they are louder than I would like but they do keep the food perfectly fresh and are holding up very well inside...look new as I wipe them out each week before I go shopping. They were $1500 for the pair including the trim out pieces.
