A freestanding refrigerator can be installed in any available space in your kitchen and even in any other room with a power outlet. In the event of a move, such a standalone unit is also significantly more flexible than a built-in model and can usually be taken to the new apartment without much difficulty. Standalone refrigerators are generally somewhat less expensive than built-in appliances and are now available in many attractive designs and with different door colors.

For easier cleaning, it is best not to place a standalone unit too close to the wall. Additionally, certain models may require some space on both sides depending on the type of heat dissipation. The automatic defrost feature melts ice on the back wall of the refrigerator even with minimal ice buildup, collects the resulting condensation, and directs it to a drain or evaporation container. This prevents a larger layer of ice from forming, which could reduce the cooling efficiency of the appliance and increase energy consumption. Thus, it saves you from having to manually remove a thick layer of ice several times a year while keeping your refrigerator's energy consumption low.
