Guidance for Frigidaire refrigerators. Check the feature and control descriptions against your model.
Specifications & model details
For Frigidaire FFUV2136AV, the source gives width 29.7 in (754.4 mm), height 66.6 in (1,691.6 mm). Measure the narrowest doorway, turning space and final opening using those same directions. These are product measurements; add the separately specified hose, ventilation, door/lid, handle and service space.
Frigidaire FFUV2136AV is listed at 306 kWh/year. Using an illustrative $0.20/kWh, that is $61.20 per year, or $5.10 per month, on the source’s annual test basis. For your rate, multiply 306 by your electricity price per kWh. Compare labels from the same test method; age, actual use, water heating and load choices can change the household result.
Frigidaire FFUV2136AV is listed with Automatic defrost. Use the branch for the listed defrost system. Note whether frost is confined to a door edge, covers stored packages, or returns on an interior surface. Door closure, moisture entry and a defrost-system problem produce different patterns.
Read a refrigerator listing by separating its published specifications from your own assessment of layout, operating cost, fit, features and support.
Category & symptom guidance
A listing can be accurate and still describe a poor choice for your kitchen. Begin by writing down the opening width, height and depth you have measured, plus the space needed for doors and drawers to open. Then compare those observations with the manufacturer’s installation drawing for the exact model and configuration. Do not infer fit from a product photo or from another refrigerator in the same family. Listings sometimes summarize dimensions without showing how handles, hinges, water connections or door projection affect placement. Record each published dimension and the drawing location where you checked it. Your evaluation can then say, for example, that the stated cabinet depth appears workable while the drawing shows a door projection that may limit the nearby walkway. That is a useful, checkable trade-off, rather than a vague claim that the appliance is compact.
Published capacity is a specification, not a promise that every shelf will suit your groceries. Note the refrigerator and freezer capacities separately when available, then inspect the interior images or layout diagram for shelf width, bins, drawers and obstructions. Think about the containers you regularly store: a wide platter, tall bottles, frozen packages or produce bags. If the listing does not publish a usable shelf dimension, do not make one up from a photograph. Describe what the diagram supports and what remains uncertain. A large total capacity may still be inconvenient if the layout divides space in ways that conflict with your routine. Conversely, a smaller stated capacity can be adequate when shelves and bins match what you store. Keep your assessment grounded in the configuration shown for the exact model, not a similar model with different doors or compartments.
Use the energy information for the exact listing and compare like with like. The U.S. Department of Energy’s FEMP guidance explains how efficiency, capacity and energy labels can support refrigerator purchase comparisons. Record the published annual energy use and the label or source that reports it. If you want an annual cost estimate, multiply that annual energy figure by your electricity price per kilowatt-hour; state the rate and calculation so a reader can reproduce it. Your local rate may differ from any estimate displayed by a seller. Avoid treating a lower annual cost as a complete verdict: capacity, layout and fit still matter. Also avoid comparing figures from different sizes or configurations as if they had the same basis. A meaningful review says what the label reports, what assumptions were used to estimate cost, and whether the difference changes your decision.
List features only when the listing identifies them for the exact configuration. For water and ice, establish whether the model has a dispenser, an ice maker, both or neither, and check what the listing says about water connection requirements. For adjustable shelving or specialty drawers, ask whether the feature solves a real storage need. Do not assume a feature is included because a product-family page shows it; sellers may group configurations together. A feature can also add a trade-off: a dispenser may take interior space, while a desired layout may be available only in another finish or configuration. Explain the practical consequence rather than repeating marketing language. If a feature’s operation, included accessory or connection requirement is not stated, label it as a question for the seller or manufacturer instead of filling the gap with a guess.
A useful review closes with support facts and unresolved questions. Find the warranty terms for the exact purchase and distinguish coverage duration, covered parts or labor, and any conditions stated in the document. Confirm who handles service in your area; a brand support page is relevant to that brand’s products, not proof that a seller or third party is authorized for every make. The GE refrigerator support page, for example, is appropriate when evaluating GE support options. State what the source actually confirms. Then weigh your findings: perhaps the layout suits your storage, the energy figure is attractive at your rate, but the installation drawing leaves a door-swing question. That is a defensible conclusion. Avoid calling a product “best” without stating the household needs and evidence behind the judgment, and do not invent customer experiences or present specifications as reviews.
The available published geometry supports a likely fit, though delivery-route constraints may still need checking.
The raw figures are not a fair efficiency comparison for the purchase you are considering.
The feature’s presence does not establish that it can be installed as planned.
It should identify the underlying annual energy figure and the assumptions behind any cost estimate. Electricity rates vary, so calculate using your own rate and compare models on a similar basis.
Only if it identifies the exact model and configuration. Otherwise, confirm the feature with the exact model listing, drawing or manufacturer.
