Hey Appliance Fans,
I always like sharing big news with you and I know you visit the blog for inside scoops on the appliance industry. Today, hopefully, I won’t disappoint.
Up until now, if you wanted to purchase a 42-inch wide, built-in French door refrigerator, KitchenAid was your only option. Well, those days are gone and after much anticipation, Sub-Zero has just released their own 42-inch French door built-in refrigerator (model: BI-42UFD).
The best part? We have one in the Kieffer’s Appliances Showroom!
Just like their other refrigerators in the BI series, you have a choice of finishes and handles. They break down as follows:
My Kitchen is TOTALLY that clean. (Sub-Zero BI-42UFD/O)
BI-42UFD/O:
This model is ready to accept a custom wood front (see the image above) and does not ship with any handles because the idea is to match the handles with the hardware on the cabinetry. If you want, you can purchase tubular or pro-style handles from Sub-Zero separately.
BI-42UFD/S/TH:
Same model as above, except this unit has stainless steel doors with tubular handles already on the unit.
Like parking a Ferrari in your kitchen.
BI-42UFD/S/PH:
Again, this is the same model but with stainless steel doors and a professional style handle that matches Wolf ranges and ovens.
Those pro handles are extremely comfortable and handle great around tight turns!
No matter which refrigerator you choose, all of the 42-inch French door refrigerators from Sub-Zero feature 24.7-cubic feet of capacity (18.3 in the refrigerator and 6.4 in the freezer). The refrigerator compartment has six adjustable glass shelves, an air purification system, and two adjustable dairy compartments. The freezer features an ice maker with filtered water and a full-extension drawer with 2-tiered wire baskets.
Just like other Sub-Zero refrigerators, the 42-inch French door model is a dual-compressor system meaning one compressor cools the refrigerator and one cools the freezer; you never have to worry about flavors transferring from the refrigerator to the freezer or vice versa. Probably the best part about purchasing a Sub-Zero (besides longer lasting, fresher foods) is the extra year warranty you receive when our certified technicians install one of these bad boys in your kitchen.
The pro handles are gorgeous and all… but where’s the bacon?!
