Refrigerator Clearance Sale: Smart Buys for Your Kitchen Upgrade

If you stock up weekly, the 28.2 cu. ft. Samsung RF28T5021SR offers party-platter space without overwhelming your kitchen. We found the built-in AutoFill water pitcher handy for grab-and-go hydration, and its ENERGY STAR rating keeps annual use around 645 kWh. Be aware some owners report the pitcher leaking over time, flimsy interior trays that can chip, and intermittent ice maker hiccups. It isn't a smart fridge, but capacity and convenience are the main event here.

For families, the 27.7 cu. ft. GE Profile PFE28KYNF stands out with hands-free AutoFill that nails water levels and TwinChill evaporators that keep freezer funk out of the crisper. During our review, the fingerprint-resistant stainless stayed tidy, and everyday storage felt generous. On the flip side, some owners report a noisy compressor and early component failures, and a second ice maker is optional. It's ENERGY STAR rated but not Wi-Fi/Alexa-enabled, so you trade smart control for straightforward convenience.

Entertaining families will appreciate LG’s 26 cu. ft. French-door roominess, dual ice makers, and an in-door water dispenser for quick refills. During our review, the PrintProof stainless finish shrugged off fingerprints, and the Energy Star rating kept projected operating costs in check. On the flip side, interior shelf adjustability is limited, and our experience shows the doors may need a firmer push to close reliably. A few owners also report temperature inconsistencies, so plan on a quick calibration and periodic spot checks via the smart app.

KitchenAid's 36-inch, 20 cu. ft. counter-depth French door model gives your kitchen a built-in look without hogging space. During our review, we liked the interior filtered water dispenser and ENERGY STAR efficiency, making daily hydration and power bills easier to manage. The trade-offs: a relatively small, shallow-feeling freezer, ice maker components that intrude on storage, and some owners noting more noise than older fridges. If you don't need smart features, it's a sharp-looking value at a clearance-friendly price.

GE’s 27.0 cu. ft. French-door fridge is a crowd-pleaser if you want big capacity with clean front doors and an internal water dispenser. In our testing, the layout made produce and leftovers easy to find, and the freezer’s built-in ice maker kept a steady supply. Watch for a few quirks: some buyers note operational noise, the internal dispenser’s limited clearance for tall bottles, and concerns about handle durability. Still, Energy Star efficiency and excellent storage make it a smart, family-size pick—just measure your favorite water bottle before you buy.

Bosch's 800 Series B36CT80SNS nails the sleek, counter-depth French door look while maximizing fresh food performance. In our testing, the dual compressors and dual evaporators kept produce crisp and odors from mingling, and the internal filtered water plus ice maker are convenient for daily use. However, our experience shows some owners encounter slow or unreliable ice production and occasional door or drawer alignment quirks, with warranty follow-up not always smooth. Smart features and ENERGY STAR certification round out a premium, built-in style choice.

Looking to make a design statement as well as add capacity? During our review, the 29 cu. ft. Samsung Bespoke 4-Door Flex impressed with its customizable panels, flexible four-door layout, and AI Family Hub that doubles as a smart home and organization hub. We found everyday storage super practical, though some owners report ice maker failures and occasional leaks, and service can be slow. It's ENERGY STAR certified and feature-rich, but plan for potential maintenance downtime if you rely heavily on ice and water.

If you love an integrated look, LG’s LRMVC2306S sits counter-depth for a near-built-in appearance while keeping aisle space open. In our testing, the Dual Ice system was a hit—Craft Ice for cocktails plus cubed and crushed for everyday drinks, all from a convenient dispenser. That said, we’ve seen reports of Craft Ice unit malfunctions and long-term cooling inconsistencies, so we’d budget for extended coverage and keep an eye on temperature stability. Energy Star efficiency and smart controls round out a premium, entertaining-friendly fridge at a strong clearance price.

For a budget-friendly, no-frills upgrade, Whirlpool’s 20.5 cu. ft. top-freezer offers a surprisingly roomy interior in a 33-inch width. During our review, the frameless glass shelves made organizing and cleaning easier, and the humidity-controlled crispers kept greens fresher longer. Be aware the temperature dial can be finicky—our experience shows a simple fridge thermometer helps avoid partial freezing—and the unit can run a bit noisy. There’s no built-in ice maker or Energy Star rating, but it’s an honest workhorse for apartments, basements, or secondary storage.

Looking for efficient basics? This LG 20.2 cu. ft. top-freezer is Energy Star certified and surprisingly quiet, great for open layouts or small kitchens. In our testing, the capacity handled a week’s groceries for a couple with room to spare. Trade-offs include no factory ice maker (it’s an add-on) and a freezer with no interior light, which makes late-night rummaging tricky. A few users also report door alignment or temperature tuning needs, so plan a careful level-and-calibrate setup on day one.

GE's GTE18GSNRSS is a straightforward, ENERGY STAR top-freezer that just works for smaller households or rental spaces. In our testing, the edge-to-edge glass shelves made it easier to clean and use the full width, and the sliding deli drawer helped organize snacks and tall bottles. Keep in mind there's no built-in ice maker or water dispenser, and it isn't a smart/Wi-Fi model. If you value simple efficiency over extras, this budget-friendly pick covers the basics reliably.

Prefer premium food preservation without a full built-in? In our testing, the Bosch 800 Series B36CL80ENS's dual compressors/evaporators and VitaFresh humidity drawers kept produce perky and odors isolated, all in a counter-depth French door bottom-mount design. The internal filtered dispenser is tidy but requires opening the door, and several owners report inconsistent ice production and relatively shallow freezer drawers. It's ENERGY STAR rated with smart features onboard, making it a strong everyday performer if freezer volume isn't your priority.

Seeking a sleek, space-saving upgrade? The Bosch 500 Series B36CD50SNS’s counter-depth French doors give a built-in look with surprisingly roomy storage. During our review, we found it runs notably quiet and appreciated the external water dispenser plus QuickIce Pro for fast, convenient ice. However, our experience shows some owners have recurring ice-maker and control-board issues, and the doors may need a firm push to close—consider an extended warranty. Energy Star and smart features round out a premium package for modern kitchens.

For compact kitchens or a secondary built-in, Bosch’s 800 Series B09IB91NSP delivers a premium fit-and-finish with true cabinet integration. In our testing, VitaFreshPro’s humidity and temperature controls kept produce and cheeses noticeably fresher, and ENERGY STAR performance helps trim utility costs. Trade-offs are real: capacity is only about 8.3 cu. ft., there’s no water dispenser, and you’ll need ice trays or an external maker. Smart Home Connect alerts for temperature and door status add peace of mind if this serves as a wine-and-produce fridge or studio kitchen mainstay.

For small condos or a minimalist kitchen, the 24-inch Bosch 500 Series B11CB50SSS offers a true counter-depth, flush look that maximizes floor space. During our review, the HydroFresh drawer kept herbs and greens crisp, and the included wine rack made clever use of the compact interior. Just know capacity is about 11 cu. ft., with no in-door water or ice maker—ice trays or a countertop unit are your friends. ENERGY STAR efficiency helps offset its smaller size with lower operating costs, making it a sharp, high-quality fit for tight spaces.

Tight on space? The 15 cu. ft. Haier HRB15N3BGS slips into small kitchens and apartments, runs impressively quiet in our testing, and the reversible doors make placement simple. You won't get a built-in ice maker or water dispenser, and the bottom-freezer drawers are on the shallow side and require opening the door fully to access. Still, with ENERGY STAR efficiency and a clean bottom-freezer layout, it's a low-stress, compact upgrade for minimalists.

If you prefer easy-to-see shelving, this 36-inch Whirlpool side-by-side packs 24.6 cu. ft. with generous door bins and full-length freezer storage. We liked the exterior water and ice dispenser for quick drinks, and the fingerprint-resistant stainless keeps the front looking tidy. Be mindful that some owners report the ice maker slowing or stopping and occasional dispenser noise; plan for routine filter changes and occasional resets. A few door-alignment issues pop up in reviews, so check level and hinges at delivery and lean on warranty service if needed.

Value hunters will like the Frigidaire FRSS26L3AF’s big 25.6 cu. ft. capacity and full-height side-by-side layout with an in-door ice and water dispenser. In our testing, storage felt family-friendly, and the ENERGY STAR rating helps keep energy costs reasonable for a standard-depth unit. However, multiple owner reports mention temperature-control failures that can freeze produce or let food warm, plus noticeable compressor and refill noises. Given some frustrating service experiences, we’d prioritize a robust retailer warranty and monitor temps with a simple thermometer in both compartments.
