I want water and Ice in my door, which typically means a side-by-side.

My Wife wants a Freezer below for space and efficiency.

Is there such a thing as a Freezer below with water in the Door?
(Ice obviously would need to be in the drawer below)

Amana, GE (profile), KitchenAid, JennAir, Maytag, Kenmore,and Whirlpool
brands all offer bottom freezer refrigerators, but I have never seen one
with water in the door. You can check the websites for these manufacturers
to double check. Each manufacturers hosts a website featuring their entire
line of appliances.

I have never seen water in the door with bottom freezer models, but I have
seen bottom and top freezer units with water dispensers inside the frig
compartment.

We bought a GE Profile over/under with the freezer on top (not inexpensive)
about 6 years ago with ice & water in the door. The water wasn't cold and
when I checked the manual it said something like "Water is not chilled. If
you want cold water please add ice". Turned out there was no water holding
tank in the refrigerator so what we got was essentially room temperature
water. The dealer read the manual, said he'd never heard of such a thing
and wondered, as we had, what kind of idiot would design a water dispenser
with no tank for chilling the water. Fortunately he picked up the unit and
replaced it with a side by side from another manufacturer at no charge.
So...before you buy any water-in-door refigerator check to see that the
water will be cold.

Hmmmmm. I've never seen one. It's unlikely, because you'd have to
stoop down to get the ice and water.

I have a GE upper/lower with freezer on top, and it has ice and water in
the door.

Ice and water in the door is not limited to side by side units at all.

Would you mind sharing the manufacturer of the replacement unit that does
have
a tank for chilling the water? (I've never seen one with chilled water
through the door.)

The replacement was a Whirlpool. I believe most manufacturers provide
chilled water, at least in their side-by-sides. A quick web search shows
Whirlpool, Maytag, GE, Amana and Samsung.

That's the same with my Amana. It says that it is a water dispenser, not a
water cooler. I seldom use the water dispenser but I do like the ice
dispenser.

I just saw a print ad for the LG bottom-freezer; sure enough, it has a
water dispenser in the door. It's at their Web site:

Ice in the door, I can see. You keep your kids' grubby hands out of the
ice tray.

Water in the door, by itself, I don't see. It doesn't make any sense.
Usually there's not enough space to get anything but a thimble-sized
juice glass in there, and if you want your water cold...well, grab a
couple ice cubes.


The LG link that sd provided shows that you can put a gallon jug in the
water dispenser. It looks like a nice refrigerator.

yep, you're right. sorry.

No, it says you can put gallon jugs in the door bins. It says nothing
about gallon jugs in the water dispenser.

In fact, look at the picture of the door open and then the door closed.
Look at the gallon jugs in the open door, then look at the water
dispenser in the closed door.

No way. No gallon jugs there.
