Think about it, what part of the appliance do you access on a regular basis? The fridge. Why not put it at the most comfortable access height possible, i.e., on top. I would love to have a fridge of this design. My great uncle had one back in the 70's-80's, and it was much more convenient than the "regular" style.

That's what we have - with the ice maker down there. Truth is, I don't get ice all that often, and the tray it dumps into isn't that hard to get things from. About the ONLY time I'm not crazy about it is when I need something from the back - requiring me to get on my knees. But it's SO much better having the upper part of the fridge - which I use the most - available without bending down all the time.SeaRide said:
HOWEVER -
Given the choice, I'd pick a wide, side by side, with a deep door shelf.

Thanks for the replies. If things goes well with the purchase of the house, I will doublecheck the measurement for the refrigerator space in the kitchen.
My finace think that most bottom freezer/bottom mount refrigerator are always wider than the top mount refrigerator. I think I found a few that has the similar spec size just like most top mount refrigerator.
In the new home kitchen, it has stainless steel side by side refrigerator that looks kinda big. The SS refrigerator now sits in the kitchen against the wall instead of the space between the pantry and the countertop.
To my surprise, C ( my finace) didn't like the stainless steel look and the side by side design also. C and I will talk more once we get the house.
Time will tell. eheh.

Having one these type delivered to new place on Friday. A double door one, pull out on the bottom. Really looking forward in having. No more Side by side type for me, unless the area to have one would be big enough to hold a huge one. Thinking really going to like this type though. I have played with the model a lot at the Sears store.
