Five refrigerators use interior space better than capacity numbers

I looked inside dozens of refrigerators—These 5 models make better use of every inch · livemint.com

A refrigerator can have a large number of litres but still feel crowded.

This happens when shelves, drawers or the freezer use space awkwardly.

The guide examined five refrigerators to see how easy they are to fill and organize.

Bosch and IFB offer smaller models with convertible sections that can change how storage is divided.

Godrej, LG and Samsung provide much larger side-by-side refrigerators.

Their layouts include separate areas for fresh food, frozen food, vegetables and drinks.

Convertible models can give users more refrigerator space when they need it.

The best choice depends on a family’s food habits, container sizes and need for freezer space.
