Samsung Versus Frigidaire Refrigerators

Whirlpool, LG, Samsung, and Frigidaire are just a few kitchen appliance brands that make refrigerators. If you’re looking for a new fridge, you’ve probably realized there are so many different brands and models that they all begin to seem the same! The best way to start narrowing down your fridge search is to compare the major brands to see which might have a fridge suited to your kitchen, personal preferences, and budget. Here’s a comparison of Samsung versus Frigidaire refrigerators.

If there’s a certain design of fridge you know you want in your kitchen, then that’s a great way to start limiting the scope of your search. Samsung and Frigidaire sell top freezer fridges, side-by-side options, and french door fridges. They also both have 4-door options, but Samsung’s 4-door fridges contain a flex zone that can act as a fridge or freezer. Frigidaire 4-door has two fridge and two freezer sections.

Samsung also has its Bespoke product line, which allows you to customize your fridge with various color and finish options. If you need a professional, large one-door fridge, Frigidaire has you covered. Besides those differences, you’ll find similar design options when comparing Samsung versus Frigidaire refrigerators.

No matter the brand, top freezer models tend to be the most affordable for shoppers looking for a small solution or a straightforward model with a low price tag. The most affordable Samsung fridge is the 18 cu. ft. Top Freezer Refrigerator with FlexZone.

For $849, you’ll get 12.7 cubic feet of fridge space and a 4.9 cubic foot freezer. The freezer is a flex space, so it can also be used as a fridge. This model is Energy Star Certified, has Twin Cooling technology for even temperatures and less freezer burn, and is equipped with LED lights.

At $879, the 13.9 Cu. Ft. Top Freezer Refrigerator is Frigidaire’s most affordable model, not counting the compact fridges. It’s Energy Star Certified, has LED lights, uses EvenTemp cooling technology, and has a flexible interior storage system.

It’s comparable in price and features to the Samsung model, but it is $30 more and four cubic feet smaller. The freezer is 3.9 cubic feet with a 13.9 cubic foot fridge. If you’re looking for a refrigerator for a small space, this may be a good fit. But if you want more space for your money, you may want to look at Samsung’s model.

The average cost for a fridge is $1000 to $2000, so let’s compare a Samsung and Frigidaire model from the middle of that range. For Samsung, that would be the 19.5 cu. ft. Smart 3-Door French Door Refrigerator. This French Door style fridge costs $1699, is Energy Star Certified, and has LED lights and an ice maker. It also can connect to WiFi so that you can control the temperature and monitor your fridge from the Samsung SmartThings app. It is a 12.9 cubic foot fridge with a 6.6 cubic foot freezer.

Though Samsung had a better-priced budget top freezer, Frigidaire may win in the mid-range category. The Frigidaire 25.6 Cu. Ft. 36'' Standard Depth Side-by-Side Refrigerator costs $100 less at $1599, comes with a PurePour Water Filter and Dispenser, and provides about six more cubic feet of space. The fridge is 16.6 cubic feet with a cubic foot freezer. So for less money, Frigidaire gives you more space and a water and ice dispenser. The only thing it misses is WiFi connectivity.

There’s no doubt that Samsung wins in the smart fridge category with its Family Hub technology. Fridges like the 26.7 cu. ft. Large Capacity Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Touch Screen Family Hub have a touch screen right on the fridge door that allows you to share photos, stream music, and control other smart devices right from your fridge! This model costs $2332 and is also Energy Star Certified with LED lights. It also has plenty of space, with a 17.2 cubic foot fridge and a 9.5 cubic foot freezer.

Frigidaire doesn’t have a smart fridge like Samsung’s family hub, but fridges like the Frigidaire Gallery 22.3 Cu. Ft. 36'' Counter Depth Side by Side Refrigerator has a touch screen that allows you to control the fridge, freezer temperature, and other functions.

There’s no conclusive winner when comparing Samsung and Frigidaire refrigerators. They both make great, energy-efficient fridges but have different strengths. Samsung has the most affordable and largest budget top freezer fridge and offers unrivaled smart fridge technology. Frigidaire makes more compact small fridges if you’re tight on space. Plus, they have the best value mid-range fridges that are spacious and packed with awesome features.
