Retro Fridge Freezers

Classic Retro Bottom-Mount Refrigerator

This bottom-mount fridge from Unique Appliances transports you back to the 1950s with its striking throwback design and chrome accents. It's ENERGY certified for energy efficiency, which makes it the ideal choice for smaller areas or as a second fridge in the garage or basement. Bottom-mounted refrigerators are easier to reach than those with freezers on top. This makes them an excellent option for elderly people or those with mobility issues.

With a capacity of 12 cubic feet this retro fridge is able to be used to store frozen and fresh food items. It is available in vibrant, glossy colors like black and cherry red as well as "milkshake"-white and black vinyl. Reviewers online love its compact, sleek design and elegant appearance. They also report that it cools quickly and quietly.

This model also has an additional crisper drawer for vegetables that can be set to a temperature different from the main fridge. This allows you to keep produce at its peak freshness, while minimizing food wastage. It's also a great option for vegans and vegetarians who don't wish to consume any animal products.

A major drawback is that since the freezer is located on the bottom, getting rid of heavy frozen items may require more effort than with refrigerators with freezers on top. This could pose a challenge for those who suffer from neck or back pain and it could create an issue for children who might try to reach the frozen turkey or ham.

The only other drawback is the fact that this retro refrigerator doesn't include smart features such as an integrated touchscreen or Wi-Fi connectivity which could be a major drawback for some shoppers. The fridge has LED lighting and the door has a lock that lets you set a code for access. It's also ADA-compliant, which means that the handles are lower to the ground and easy to use for people who have mobility issues or limited hand strength. The door of the freezer is protected by an anti-bacterial liner to prevent growth of microorganisms.
