Our take on the Whirlpool 36" Side-By-Side Refrigerator

This is a 36-inch side-by-side refrigerator with 24.6 cu. ft. total capacity, split into 15.46 cu. ft. of fridge space and 9.11 cu. ft. of freezer space. It has a through-the-door ice and water dispenser, humidity-controlled crispers, LED lighting and adaptive defrost. It is not counter depth, not Energy Star certified and uses a single evaporator, so it is a basic rather than efficient or premium design. The best new price is $1,397.99 at Appliance Solutions as of November 5, 2026, with 5 stores selling it new.
