I had a french door fridge in CA and enjoyed it, though it was difficult to reach the back of the top shelf for me....I'm not very tall. Hubby loved it, especially having the freezer on the bottom. It didn't have water/ice in the door, but the ice cube maker was easily reachable when you opened the freezer. I didn't care for the freezer because you stacked things on top of each other...same for top freezers. Here we have a side by side and solved the narrow freezer issue by buying a small chest freezer that fits in my laundry room. Hubby is the one who "hunts" for whatever it is that we need out of the freezer...and that food item generally has worked its way to the very bottom of the freezer. I didn't know food could migrate!...
French door fridge/freezers are very good looking and have
LOTS of fridge space in my estimation, but personally, I prefer the side by side I have right now.
