BENTON HARBOR, Mich., March 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Apartment-dwellers and owners of cramped kitchens rejoice! Space constraints will no long limit style and function in the kitchen.

This means you don't have to remodel or spend a dime on new cabinets, but can still get that stylish look you've been craving. The new model fits in a space the same width as a traditional top-mount model but is still large enough to hold wide items like party platters and birthday cakes. It's the perfect solution for those who want to upgrade their kitchen without a complete overhaul.
But it's not all about style. This new refrigerator is also functional. It includes Whirlpool's patented Fresh Flow Produce Preserver. The Produce Preserver will extend the freshness of produce for up to four days longer than their lifetime in standard crisper drawers, saving money and trips to the grocery store. And it doesn't just save money. The Energy Star®-qualified French door bottom mount uses less energy than a 50-watt light bulb each year. And the Adaptive Defrost will sense and adapt to save 12% more energy, providing improved food preservation by running the defrost cycle only when necessary.
The 30" French Door Bottom Mount refrigerator is available in a variety of models (WRF560SEY,WRF560SMY, WRF560SFY) at retailers nationwide and comes in black, white or stainless steel with an MSRP ranging from $1,499 to $1,799.
The experts at Whirlpool have a few additional tips on how to redefine your kitchen without remodeling:
-- Do a Deep Clean - Often times all a space needs is a bit of TLC. Gather
your family and do a deep clean to the baseboards, cabinets, trim and
appliances. Your kitchen will look shiny and new without ever spending a
dime.
-- Refresh Your Color - A new coat of paint can brighten up an entire room.
Choose a light color for the kitchen that won't show all those food
stains and finger prints.
-- Organize Your Cabinets - According to a Harris Interactive survey
conducted on behalf of Whirlpool, 27% of consumers will shove things in
without worrying about organization. Spend a morning throwing out
expired products and organizing boxes and cans by use. Your kitchen will
feel more open and be much easier to navigate.
With 100 years of innovation, Whirlpool Corporation knows a thing or two about making the refrigerator fit the whole family's needs.
