Queen City’s Definitive Guide to Bottom Freezer Refrigerators
Welcome to North and South Carolina’s largest selection of refrigerators with bottom freezers. At Queen City, we don’t just sell appliances; we use our decades of local experience to help you find a refrigerator that performs for years.
The bottom freezer refrigerator design is highly popular because it puts fresh food, which is accessed most often, at eye level, improving convenience and reducing back strain. Below, our local experts break down the key considerations for this style.
Why Choose a Bottom Freezer Model?
● Ergonomics
○ Expert Rationale: Fresh food is used 80% of the time. This design places your refrigerator compartment (the most used space) right at eye level, minimizing bending and maximizing convenience.
○ Insight: Excellent for families, seniors, or anyone who values easy access to daily ingredients.
● Space Efficiency
○ Expert Rationale: Unlike side-by-sides, the refrigerator compartment is a single, wide space. This makes storing large items, like full party platters, sheet cakes, or wide pizza boxes, significantly easier.
○ Insight: Better for deep storage and maximizing space utilization compared to French Door models of the same capacity.
● Drawer Design
○ Expert Rationale: Most bottom freezers feature a pull-out drawer. Our Queen City techs find that this drawer design reduces cold air loss compared to traditional hinged door freezers when briefly opened.
○ Insight: Better temperature stability and energy efficiency within the freezer compartment.
