Built-in fridges cost and pros and cons

Question

Are built-in fridges expensive? What are their pros (aside from saving space) and their cons?

William · Accepted Answer

They don’t save space. If anything, you lose space. A 600wide freestanding appliance will have a larger internal capacity than an équivalant size integrated appliance. They do however give a superior look to a kitchen

Joel · Answer

Pros for built in fridge is obviously as you mentioned a space saver, but also good for making the kitchen design consistent throughout.

Cons sometimes it can be a difficult task to remove or replace the door covering.

Craig · Answer

A Built in Fridge is pretty much the same as a stand-alone, but instead you have to pay for the Fridge and the cabinet.  If the Fridge breaks down, you need to buy the same size every time.  If a stand-alone fridge breaks down, you can buy any fridge that fits into the space.

Shaun · Answer

As with all appliances they are as cheap or expensive as you wish to spend. Integrated give a better cosmetic finish, but not necessarily space saving as you still require space for a fridge.

Main pro is aspherics,, built-in looks good with the rest of the kitchen units.. Main con is it requires a certain level of expertise to remove when the fridge/freezer goes bad

Roger · Answer

Built-fridges are more expensive because of the door attached, as Londg as they are fitted correctly with vents at the bottom and air flow at the back.
I fitted an American free standing type fridge/freezer and then fitted the kitchen around it which looks like it’s built in.

Pros - they are hidden in choice of your kitchen enclosed so no space bearing or bulky appliances in your space you have left  in your kitchen 

Cons - can become expensive if require a certain size fridge I.e if you jave a family of 5+ which isn't that uncommon these days  as mostly these enclosed fridge can be quiet slender compared to the offerd fridges we have available these days to purchase
