Battle of the Built-In Refrigerator

The built in refrigerator market has more competition out there now than ever in the past five years. SubZero still dominates the market and has an all new redesigned BI-Series of refrigerators. I was very impressed with the first glimpse of these models on the features added that might keep them ahead of their competitors. SubZero put on your boxing gloves and get ready for a battle this Summer.



Miele is one of the new players to the built-in refrigerator market in the Unites States and they really made a statement with their user friendly design. Miele offers fully sealed temperature and humidity controlled crisper drawers which makes it easy to store fruits, vegetables, meats, and seafood at optimum temperature. Miele refrigerators are Energy Star for those who want to save money on their electricity bill.



SubZero knew what the customers wanted and delivered a all new redesigned BI-Series refrigerator. SubZero has been a leader in built-in refrigerators for over 60 years and they always had their signature dual compressor system. SubZero promotes the dual compressor system that you will never get odor transfer between the refrigerator and freezer compartment. SubZero state of the are air filtration system does not just clean the air it eliminates bacteria, mold, and viruses. The temperature inside the refrigerator is kept within 1 degree of where you set it and defrost cycle based on consumer usage patterns.

There has been an intense battle for many years with the built-in refrigerator manufracturers developing new designs to compete against the SubZero. Thermador refrigerators have been very popular with their integrated design which gives you flush installation design with your cabinets. The important choice is to buy a refrigerator that fits the design of your kitchen and gives you the best value for the money.
