​A Modular Fridge to Re-Choreograph Your Kitchen Habits

Janelle Zara

In case you somehow failed to notice, your fridge’s crisper drawer is a stroke of genius, a compartment that provides the optimal humidity and temperature settings to keep your organic Tuscan kale stalks as crisp as can be while the milk and eggs chill out on their own on other shelves. But don’t your milk and eggs deserve optimal environments of your own?

If you would indeed like to give the rest of your perishable goods an higher quality of shelf life, U-Line’s Modular 3000 Series is the crisper drawer, evolved: multiple under-the-counter mini fridges that can be touchscreen-set to distinct environments, such as that of a wine cellar (with a drawer at 45°F for sparkling, 50°F for whites, and 55°F for red), a 36°F deli case, a 0°F ice cream freezer, and beyond. Each product in the suite is guaranteed to be 1°F within its displayed temperature.

However many you own, you can place each module exactly where you need it, spatially designing, in the manufacturer’s words, “more efficient kitchen choreography”: the booze and the ice maker can logically go by the bar, the veggies next to the sink, and the kids’ Capri Suns in the playroom — a locale also known as out of sight and out of mind. Glass doors options put your wine and spirit collections on permanent display. And best of all, the Quick Chill setting mean beers go from room temperature to go time in no time. This is going to be great for your social life.

Check out new product launches, including the industry’s first residential built-in modular 24” Frost-Free Freezer, in Las Vegas at the Kitchen and Bathroom Industry Show, January 20–22. And may your entertaining be seamless, and forever freezerburn-free.
