Samsung's new French Door Refrigerator is the largest so far

The latest French Door Refrigerator is vying for the world's largest spot with a volume of 29-cubic-feet and 16% increase in useable space while keeping the same form. Model RFG297 manages extra volume within the same overall size by using high-rate urethane insulation technology which reduces wall thickness from 2.04 inches to 1.38 inches and provides an extra 4 cubic feet of storage or 16%. Specs include the company's Twin Cooling Plus System, this allows the main body and the freezer section to be cooled separately so that odors from the compartments do not mix. Features include an external filtered water and ice dispenser, wine rack, power freeze and power cool functions, a door alarm, LED lighting and is 2008 Energy Star Rated - which is 20% more energy efficient than the standard DOE requirement for refrigerators.

The French Door Refrigerator from Samsung (Model RFG297) will be available from next month; it will come in stainless platinum, stainless steel, black and white finishes. The fridge weighs 238 lbs, and measures 35" x 68" x 33".
