Which American Style Fridge freezer to buy?

[HelpMeFridge]

My Siemens Am Style FF has given up after 10yrs. I need to replace and my goodness things have changed since we last bought one. We currently have a plumbed line into our old fridge so FF with ice and water dispenser that is plumbed is preferable. Samsung seem to have the widest choice and with lots of extras ( auto tag expiration dates, meal planners etc!) but reviews are very mixed. What is a good brand to buy?

We were in a similar position but once we started reviewing, realised many of the new fancy models would not fit the space we have. We ended up with a relatively basic Samsung which is excellent actually so I am pleased I wasn’t seduced by the gimmicks!

We had a specific space it needed to fit.. Went with Beko. Had it 4 years now problem free.

We have a Fisher and Paykel, also plumbed in, and love it. It replaced a Maytag when we redid our kitchen and I was glad to see the back of it due to the overflowing watertray on the front of it. New FF has an internal icemaker and we no longer need the water dispenser as we have a filtered water tap.

We like Samsung, as they do metal doors for reasonable prices (as opposed to silver coloured plastic). We also like that they do ones with flush handles as I am a bit wobbly and tend to bump into almost anything sticking out even a tiny bit. Got our last one from AO as reasonably priced and excellent delivery service
