FRIDGE envy is a recent phenomenon in Irish homes, where it seems we can't get enough of the American-style upright with shiny exterior, double doors, ice dispenser and water filter. Undeniably, many white goods, like washing machines and dryers, are best disguised behind matching unit doors, but some appliances are so slickly designed that they genuinely deserve to take centrestage in the kitchen.
Sub-Zero fridges, the number-one choice for show-off foodies, are a case in point with their smart industrial styling and state-ofthe-art technology.
But not all gadget-lovers have the kitchen space to accommodate these behemoths.
Addressing the problem, several appliance manufacturers have developed the two-drawer fridge, a discrete solution that integrates into your kitchen units.
Way cooler than a standard undercounter fridge, brands including Hotpoint, Aga, KitchenAid, GE and Sub-Zero have all produced these drawer fridges, which come with adjustable dividers for customising your storage space.
If you love the concept but hate the idea of hiding your new trophy appliance behind custom panels, you may prefer a stainless steel model, like KitchenAid's Double Drawer fridge (left). Let's see who's got fridge envy now.
It costs 2,299 from C&F Quadrant stockists nationwide (tel 01 630 5757) www. kitchenaid. co. uk.
