I will never forget the first side-by-side refrigerator/freezer I bought,
and that was when I didn't have a separate deep freezer. It was an Amana.
I had just finished assembling a frozen key lime pie and opened the freezer
to put it in. The goddam pie plate was too wide to fit in the freezer! I
can't even remember all the times I cursed that damned thing. Large
platters wouldn't fit in the fridge either.

I'm not enamored of the French door models either. I hate the pull out
freezer drawers because they're so inefficient, and also difficult to clean
the cavity. Plus it puts the ice maker on the bottom, and we use a lot of
ice.

I'd just rather stick with my traditional top freezer model, trends and
fashion bedamned.
