Get Up to $1,000 Off These Editor-Approved Refrigerators for Presidents’ Day

Date:

Replacing a major appliance on the fly is a real headache—and often a major unplanned cost. No wonder why people put it off until the last minute, hoping to get another few years out of an old model. But if that appliance happens to be your refrigerator, chances are you won’t have much time to price comparison shop before buying. That’s why if you suspect your fridge is on its last leg—or if you want to upgrade to a newer model or style—there’s no time like a major holiday weekend sale to take advantage of big savings.

Presidents’ Day is bringing more than 40 percent off on refrigerator models from top brands, including Whirlpool, GE, Frigidaire, and Samsung. So whether you’re hunting for a top-of-the-line French door refrigerator or a budget garage-ready model for extra storage, we bet there’s one out there for you with a sales price that’s too good to pass up. These are the very best Presidents’ Day refrigerator deals that we know about so far.

Best Presidents’ Day Refrigerator Sales by Retailer

  • Amazon: For deals on wine fridges and mini-fridges, Amazon is the place to shop. There’s plenty in stock, and of course, Prime Members get free shipping on select models.
  • Lowe’s: Lowe’s offers up to 40 percent off on select major appliances, including the best refrigerators; spend $750 and you save $75, and up to $750 if you spend $7,500 or more. Overall, we’re seeing some fantastic Presidents’ Day deals at Lowe’s.
  • Walmart: Like Amazon, Walmart has deals on mini-fridges and wine fridges. The selection isn’t as vast, but discounts are similar.
  • Wayfair: Wayfair is a one-stop shop for stylish home items, plus its selection of appliances is pretty solid. There’s also always a sale happening at Wayfair, and ahead of Presidents’ Day there are plenty of great deals on refrigerators and more.

Best French-Door Refrigerator Deals

French-door refrigerators are the most popular style among fridges: Capacity tends to be larger, they’re designed so all food is at eye level, and there’s usually one or two pull-out freezer drawers.

That’s why we’re always on the lookout for fantastic French-door fridge deals—and we’re seeing plenty this Presidents’ Day. One of the best out there—among any fridge style—is 45 percent off GE’s high-capacity 27.7-cubic-foot model with an ice maker. Another is 51 percent off Frigidaire’s 17.6-cubic-foot counter-depth model.

Best Side-By-Side Refrigerator Deals

Side-by-side refrigerators generally provide more freezer space than other styles and are often priced a bit lower than comparable French-door models. The downsides are that it’s tough to accommodate wide items and you need to bend to access whatever is at the bottom.

Still, there’s a lot of like about this style—and some great Presidents’ Day deals to be had on major brands. For example, you can save an incredible 45 percent off this ever-popular Frigidaire Gallery 22.3-cubic-foot model.

Top-freezer refrigerators are classics for good reason: solid capacity and reasonable price point. Plus many are garage-ready, meaning they’re designed to protect food against extreme temperatures.

If you’re in the market for a garage-ready freezer for a great price, this GE 21.9-cubic-foot model is well worth a look for 36 percent off.

If your household tends to stock up on a lot of frozen food, this style fridge may be right for you.

This Presidents’ Day, we’re excited about a whopping 49 percent off Frigidaire’s 21.5-cubic-foot model and 45 percent off Haier’s sleek 16.4-cubic-foot quad fridge.

There are extra-small mini fridges with 2.2 cubic feet of capacity (or less) and larger models with just over 4 cubic feet of storage that work well in campers or RVs.
