Funny, we were just refrigerator shopping today. There is a whole new bevy of bells and whistles that I consider unnecessary.
Bear in mind that I don't even want an ice maker. I've spent several hours helping friends fix theirs. It's just not that difficult to fill up an ice cube tray or keep a jug of cold filtered water in the fridge.
Our problem is that they've all gotten huge and won't fit in the space we have, 35 wide by 68 and 5/8 tall. Plus, I want a bottom freezer and do NOT want French doors.
@Mik We had all of Covid waiting for our new fridge. Then after the container ship arrived, ours was given to someone else. I forget what we ordered the 2nd time up with because they discontinued it. So the store upgraded us & ours came via Mexico toward the end of Covid. It has French doors with single bottom drawer .. a Frigidaire. Loads of door space & logical shelves. We wanted No water, No ice maker. We don’t miss these things at all. And I never worry about the hardwood floors.

Why not?
Three reasons
- More points of failure for the seal
- Much less door shelf space
- Harder to see what’s inside, more hands needed to open. Y

I'm waiting for someone to invent DeLorean style refrigerator doors. Till then I just eat non-perishables.
