Super-Size Your Summer Entertaining
Whirlpool brand introduces industry's largest side-by-side refrigerator
BENTON HARBOR, Mich., July 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- With gallons of milk, snacks, frozen foods and produce for an entire family, you need a refrigerator that can fit - and organize - it all. With many family members home from work and school and the height of the summer entertaining season upon us, Whirlpool brand introduces its newest side-by-side refrigerator - large enough to hold all of your party platters at once or enough food to feed the favorite tastes of the entire family.

The industry's largest capacity side-by-side refrigerator* can hold multiple party platters, store produce in the industry's largest crisper** and keep up to 10 gallons of milk or juice cold. Key features include:
-- Storage space - The side-by-side refrigerator features the industry's
largest crisper** with an extra-deep drawer design that can hold 85
medium sized apples and up to five gallon door bins that will each hold
two 1-gallon containers. And with wide open doors, consumers will never
have a problem housing summer party leftovers like apple pie or
quenching their thirst for a cool drink on a hot day.
-- Counter depth - The side-by-side refrigerator combines counter depth
styling with a full capacity refrigerator allowing consumers to put the
appliance virtually flush with their counters and save up to 5 ft. of
kitchen space. More room to party!
-- Spill Control - With so many hands in and out of the fridge, Whirlpool's
MicroEdge(TM) spill control shelves give your fridge 25 percent extra
shelf space*** and exclusive spill control to help prevent leaks.
-- FreshFlow - All those leftovers can leave a funky odor. Whirlpool's
FreshFlow(TM) air filter is 15 times more powerful than baking soda at
removing common food odors by circulating air through a carbon-based
filter. For optimal performance, replace your filter every six months.
"The side-by-side is great for large families who love entertaining and feeding large groups," says Clara Spaanstra, Senior Brand Manager, Whirlpool Kitchen. "With the growing trend of buying in bulk to save money, Whirlpool is committed to providing consumers all the space they need for their favorite groceries."
And don't forget, an organized fridge operates more efficiently and saves you time. The experts at the Whirlpool Institute of Kitchen Science recommend the following:
-- When in doubt, throw it out. Use the three "E" rules as your guidelines
- if it's expired, empty or makes you say "ew," toss it.
-- Location, location, location. Group similar items together. Keep
proteins towards the bottom of the refrigerator, since this is the
coldest part in the appliance. Condiments and dressings are perfect for
the door, as these items can tolerate temperature changes caused by
opening and closing the door.
-- Save some green and the environment. Purchase reusable water bottles for
family members and make use of the easy to access ice and water
dispenser. You can save up to $600 per year when you change your PUR
refrigerator water filter twice a year compared to buying the same
amount of leading brand bottled water.
July is Whirlpool's Change Your Refrigerator Water Filter month. To celebrate, Whirlpool will be hosting a Twitter party on Tuesday, July 26 from 7:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. EDT. Use the hashtag #filterfresh to join the conversation and enter for a chance to win a brand new Whirlpool side by side refrigerator. Whirlpool brand side-by-side refrigerators are available at retailers nationwide. For more information visit http://www.whirlpool.com or http://www.facebook.com/whirlpool.
