Very rarely do I get
dancing-in-the-kitchen and squealing like a tween-age girl at a Justin Bieber Concert excited. This was one of those times.
I was selected amongst many other (very deserving) bloggers to be a new Test Drive Mom with Frigidaire Canada and Mom Central Canada.
What does that mean?
I get to "test drive" the Frigidaire Gallery® French Door Refrigerator which means a brand spanking new gorgeous Stainless Steel Frigidaire Refrigerator for my family!
WOOHOO!
You can follow the conversation with us on Twitter at #TestDriveMoms.
I am still reeling with delight and excitement and truly very honoured that I was chosen to be part of this fantastic program for a brand that my family has owned and loved for many years.
It wasn't until we moved into our new home last year that we had to say
buh-bye to our older Frigidaire and settle with the fridge that was already in our new home.
Thankfully the new home included a Frigidaire Oven!
We have a lot of home renovation projects we're thrilled to start within the new few years, the kitchen being one of the main ones, but of course that comes with a hefty budget.
So we have to do it slowly but surely.
Our new
Frigidaire Gallery® French Door Refrigerator was the perfect addition and beginning of our kitchen renovation!
Our current appliances are all white (which is okay) but I personally love Stainless Steel Appliances.
My fridge came in late last week and after getting it into our home (and my giddy prancing around the kitchen while the hubby finished up some quick assembly), I couldn't help but stand there with sheer admiration.
We don't have much space in our kitchen (
small but brimming with lots of heart and good meals!), so it's amazing how much I can get into my new Frigidaire Fridge. So very helpful!
Before I go into details, we have to talk about the
Designer Three-Tier LED Lighting (which you can't see with the pictures).
Upon opening, the lights slowly turn on causing a simultaneous
"oooh-aaahh" effect between me and my hubby.
Stunning lighting with lights from every level of the fridge. It also lights up when you're getting water from the water dispenser. No more waking the entire family in the middle of the night by having to turn on the kitchen lights. You can see everything very well with the LED lighting.
Drinking water will never be the same again.
One of my favourite features on my new fridge is the
PureSource Ultra® Water Filtration.
The PureSource Ultra® Water Filtration System is best in class and removes 99.9% of bacteria/chemicals from your water! For someone like me that can always tell the when I'm being served tap water (
blech!), this is wonderful!
And now, my friends, I take you to a place only those near and dear to me have gone to...
Welcome to the inside of my Refrigerator.
This was a shot taken pre-grocery shopping - there's still lots of space left!
There is way more space in this fridge than the last fridge I owned.
We love to cook (and eat!) in our family and the last fridges we had truly did not measure up with space. Our food was getting suffocated inside causing them to spoil quicker but that's not the case here.
The
SpaceWise® Organization System makes it easy to keep food organized and easy to find when you need it with a
Store-More™ full-width drawer, gallon-size door bins, and
Effortless™ Glide freezer drawers.
I love how how you can slide the shelves out so you can organize better and find the foods hidden in the back without struggle.
And you can easily make room for tall containers with the Flip-Up and Slide-Under Shelves. So cool!
Even cooler? The shelves are made of
SpillSafe® glass, designed to keep spills contained. And if it's happened to you (who hasn't it happened to?), spillage in the fridge is not fun to clean up.
The
Effortless™ Glide Crisper Drawers keep your fruits and vegetables fresh in the crisper drawers which easily glide out, and are designed to effortlessly close.
The large capacity
Cool Zone™ drawer provides enough space to easily store anything from sheet cakes and large platters to snacks and juice boxes.
The PureAir Ultra® air filters effortlessly keep the air in your refrigerator fresh. No more having to include a box of Baking Soda inside your fridge to deodorize! Trust me it works.
We had some Indian Food (we love Indian!) the day after getting the fridge and stored the leftovers inside with no trace of odour after many hours. Sweet!
The
Effortless™ Glide Freezer Drawers glide out smoothly and fully extend, giving you easy access to what’s inside. And again, I can get so much in there with the deep freezer storage and the convenient slide-out adjustable divider.
And finally, last but certainly not least, my ultimate favourite feature of my new fridge - the
Smudge-Proof Stainless Steel!
Real Stainless Steel with a protective coating reduces fingerprints and smudges so it’s easy to clean.
Big check-mark in this home of sticky fingers!
I'm borderline OCD when it comes to cleanliness in my home and even the tiniest little smudge drives me bonkers. Think Monica in Friends... yeah, not even kidding.
Cleaning this fridge is a breeze and the fact that I don't have to worry about the smudges (which is usually so easy to see on stainless steel) is just perfect.
We are really enjoying our new fridge and probably driving my family and friends crazy with how much I talk about it, but if you owned one you would totally get why.
Thank you again Frigidaire Canada and Mom Central Canada for choosing me to be a Test Drive Mom!
