The storage space for refrigerators is measured in total litres rather than the physical dimensions of each compartment.
- 100 – 250 litres - if you have a small family (1-2 people), a refrigerator with this capacity will give you enough space to store a week's worth of food.
- 200 – 450 litres – this capacity fridge will be perfect for a medium sized family (3-4 people)
- 450+ litres - if you have a large household (5 people+) you will probably need a fridge with this size total capacity.

You can choose a built in model, freestanding or built under depending on what space is available and what style you want to achieve in your kitchen.
- Built in models – these will fit behind an existing furniture door and the front of the appliance is not on show.
- Freestanding models - tall upright models will fit wherever you have a space and it is important to consider colour as the whole front of the appliance will be on show.
- Built under model - designed to slot underneath a work surface.

All refrigerators are now rated by the EU to let people know how much energy is needed to run them. The energy ratings go from 'A' to 'G' with 'A' being the best. A fridge with a good energy rating will save you electricity and money on your energy bills. Some manufacturers have models which have a better than 'A' rating;
- 'A+' energy rated models will save you money by achieving up to 10% reduction in energy consumption, compared with 'A' energy rated models.
- 'A++' energy rated models are designed to help you save up to 20% more on your energy bills, than 'A' rated models
A good way to work out just how much money buying an energy saving refrigerator will save you is to calculate how much it costs to run over a year. To help you we have calculated how much it costs to run your refrigerator depending on how energy efficient it is.
