My sister did this in her kitchen. (Not with F&P, but a German brand.). It works great! Bonus feature is that when you don't need high capacity, you can put all the food into one side and turn the other side off, saving energy. (My sister does this when they go on vacation.). You can also set the two sides at slightly different temps, to keep some foods (like lettuce) not as cold as other foods (like meats).

I'm with you on not wanting a water or ice dispenser in the fridge/freezer. We don't either! My sister's fridges are paneled to match her cabinets, so she doesn't have those features either. No one misses them!

It can be done with the 25 or 31 models. There is even a trim kit to hold them together. Here is a picture of my 25’s placed together during my remodel. I got the ice maker and water dispenser on one and plain model on the other.

Hi jschlesi!
We’ve been seriously considering the same set up you have with the 2 FP 25 inch refrigerators installed side by side with the joining kit, I’ve been trying to, with no luck, to find out the width and the depth of the interior shelves in the refrigerator and how large of items will fit in the doors. There are no stores anywhere near us that have them on display and I even called their customer service and they couldn’t tell me either. Would you mind measuring the interior shelves both width and depth for me??? I would appreciate it soooo much! we really like the look of this set, but are afraid it might not be enough room. Any thoughts also on the freezer space as well.
I don’t know how long you’ve had your set, but any info you have, both pros and cons would be very much appreciated!
Thanks so much!

We just placed our order and don’t have them yet. Also, we’re getting the 32” models. I will say that if you go on their website and get the model numbers for the units you’d like, you can then go to “help and support” ——> “find a manual” and input the model number. The installation guide and user manuals are available for download and should have all of the info you need. Additionally, I had to call yesterday to ask a quick question for the cabinet maker and the custom service person was very helpful.

We’ve looked at the Electrolux Icon units, which we do like, there’s a whole lot of negative reviews on them though, they’ve apparently revamped them and the new models won’t be out until late summer, early fall and I really need to make a purchase soon, as we are currently using an old garage fridge.
I really like the look of the FP units, I like the sleekness and particularly the handles and that they are both going the same direction.
There are only 2 of us, however our 2 adult children and their spouses and one grandbaby come over regularly for dinner, so we usually keep a very stocked refrigerator at all times.
Each 25 unit has about 9.5 cubic feet each so times that by 2 we were thinking that may be enough space? We just were concerned about the width and depth of the interior shelves as we do use platters a lot.

Brulis thank you for the information, I will try that and see if I can find the interior measurements for the 25 inch models.

We considered the Whirlpool Sidekicks, but the reviews were overwhelmingly terrifying. We like the look of the Electrolux or KA columns, but my husband REALLY wants water in the door and he doesn’t ask for much lol. We have 5 living here and family dinners for 13 every Sunday. With moving our current LG French door to the garage, I’m confident we’ll have plenty of space.

Sorry been offline for a few days.

We have more storage than I anticipated. I would have gone with the 32” but these are more than adequate

Thank you so much for the measurements!
I think 20 inches wide will be more than enough especially since there will be two units instead of just one. Do they operate quietly? Keep a steady temp? I really appreciate you giving me the measurements and feedback as I don’t know anyone who has ever owned a F&P refrigerator, and I really like the look of them so I’d like to get as much info as I can before I purchase a set.
Thanks again!!!!!

They’re fine. I would get the next model up. The pull out freezer drawers would be better. But so far it’s good!!

Thank you, I appreciate all the info you’ve given me on the units. I just may decide to go with the 31 inch models, I have the space for them and I’m sure the extra cubic feet will come in handy as well. Thanks again!!

It won’t disappoint and it looks like it cost double what you spend. I would have gone with 31 but wife was worried about the space.

Are the freezers in the 25 inch model overly small even for a 25 inch model or do you feel it’s just not an overall good design for storage as far as them being a pull out design?
I know noise/loud is subjective to each individual, but would you say they’re quiet or on the loud side? beside obviously wanting them to keep a good temperature, how loud it is is quite important to me as well.
Thank you again for all your input, you’ve been very helpful to me!! It’s greatly appreciated!!

They’re quiet to me. Freezers are not very big and definitely the weaker part of the fridge.

Thank you so much for all your input!
It’s greatly appreciated.
