Remember that American models are generally more deep than UK models. Take a look at your kitchen before purchasing. Some models are too deep to pass through the front door or even through internal doors.

American fridge freezers are typically larger than the typical UK fridge freezer. This is due to their enormous storage capacity.

Water/ice dispenser
An American refrigerator freezer that comes with a water or ice dispenser will give you immediate access to chilled, filtered water on demand, which is ideal for keeping everyone hydrated. You can choose to have models that are plumbed that require plumbing into your home, or manual models where you manually add water into a reserve inside the appliance.
Depending on the model you choose the dispenser can be either an automatic ice maker which produces cubes or crushed ice or an ice tray that fills up manually and released by turning the knob. You may also see some models have a separate ice box in the freezer, which can provide an additional supply of frozen cubes.
It's not always the case that an American refrigerator freezer that has a water dispenser and ice maker is costly to run. Many models come with energy ratings of A or above, so are relatively inexpensive to run given their size.
