Your household decides the size. Your kitchen decides how much fits.

Question 1 of 2
How many people do you feed?

How we work out the size

About 100 litres a person. Allow roughly 100 litres for each person at home, with a little extra if you batch-cook or shop once a week. A standard 60 cm fridge freezer holds 300 to 360 litres, which suits up to four people; bigger families need an American-style one.

Measure the gap, then add some. Leave a little air around the sides and back so it runs efficiently, check the height under any wall cupboard, and make sure the door can open fully beside a wall.

Measure the way in too. An American-style fridge freezer can be too wide for a narrow door or hallway. Check every doorway on the way to the kitchen.

How we reached this verdict

We compared independent expert reviews with the manufacturer's specifications, then checked it's sold at a major retailer where you live. We don't test products ourselves.
