This 21-cubic-foot refrigerator consumes less energy than a 100-watt light bulb (about $47 per year). Microprocessors, an adaptive defrost schedule, dual refrigeration and independent controls combine to make this appliance very efficient. Cold controls are electronic and precise, maintaining temperatures within two degrees.

An alarm beeps to warn you when the triple-pane glass door is ajar. The cabinet's interior lighting can be adjusted to low, creating a warm, soft light for the kitchen. The bottom-mount freezer has a two-tiered drawer with an automatic icemaker. Available in several finishes, this cabinet-depth refrigerator is 24" deep, 84" tall and 36" wide.
