The Samsung Food Showcase refrigerator provides easy access to on-the-go items. The exterior showcase gives you instant access to drinks and condiments, while the inner case lets you store large, fresh food items. Perfect for frequently used items, this refrigerator lets you easily organize your food by type or family member.

Bought this bad boy on Memorial Day weekend sale when they had a Samsung promotion for $300 off for Best buy members. We went into the store thinking of getting the French door models as those seems to be the current fashion trend but the wife doesn’t like the middle insulation bar on the French door models so we went back to the tried and true side by side model.
Being a “showcase” model, this one definitely attracts attention at the showroom floor once people realizes there is the extra special door to open other than the typical two doors. While we were doing the paperwork to pay for our purchase, it was funny to see the various reactions of people’s reaction to the special showcase door. If you have small kids, having the showcase door will be easier for them to reach their snacks front and below on the bottom.
If you don’t need the “wow” factor of showcase features, you can save yourself few hundred dollars in getting the non-showcase model as the interior functioning isn’t that much different than the other high end Samsung or other models. You are paying a price premium for the new technology/design.
If you care what exact temperature the refrigerator and the freezer is at any given time, the LED display will tell you anytime the door is opened and you can program it to reach a specific number, not just turning a knob on a scale of 1 to 5 a la some other models.
Personally not having the door handles like a typical side by side gives it a more clean cut look as there is nothing that protrudes out but that is more of a personal preference
Keep in mind this is a fairly big refrigerator. It barely was able to squeeze into our front door and into the kitchen via a long walk around loop. So be sure to measure the dimensions of not just the kitchen area but the path to get to the kitchen form the front door. The 35 plus inch depth will preclude it from closing in via the other smaller doors (like the door into the house form the garage door).
For some odd reason, Best buy/Samsung is pricing the larger 28.7 cubic feet the same price as the smaller 21.5 cf model. So as long as your kitchen can fit it, get the bugger size as you have a much deeper refrigerator to store the food.
My Best Buy number: 0557268373
What's great about it: Has high "wow" factor if that's important to you
What's not so great: Higher cost for the new technology
I would recommend this to a friend!
