Monogram Professional Side-by-Side Refrigerators: Welcome a Handsome New Addition to the Professional Line

    LOUISVILLE, Kentucky - Home chefs who prefer the pronounced and robust look of a professional stainless steel kitchen will appreciate the latest addition to the GE Monogram professional collection. Monogram now offers a built-in professional side-by-side refrigerator, giving homeowners the option of an entire suite of professional Monogram appliances.

    These refrigerators are available now .

    GE Monogram's professional lineup includes professional ranges, ventilation hoods, cooktops, wall ovens, dishwashers and refrigerators. In addition to the new 42- and 48-inch professional side-by-side refrigerators, Monogram also offers 36- and 72-inch bottom-freezer refrigerators in its professional series. Elegantly framed and finished in premium stainless steel, the new refrigerator is designed with smooth, chamfered edges hand-finished for those who appreciate fine craftsmanship. Professional-style handles are both sleek and substantial, adding an attractive dimensional element to the front of the refrigerator that complements the handles on the Monogram professional-style cooking products. Even the water and ice dispenser looks incredibly polished, featuring instructional graphics that illuminate automatically when approached, and that are programmed to turn off after a set period of time.

    The spacious interior provides room for everything needed for throwing an impromptu dinner party, including ample storage for large platters of cold hors d'oeuvres or the tallest, layered desserts. The delicate flavors and textures of food and ice are protected with an overhead, dual-evaporator design that eliminates air exchanged between the freezer and fresh-food compartment. Precision electronic controls have been integrated into the top of the refrigerator for simple access and to achieve a refined appearance.

    The versatile Climate Control Drawer features customized settings that include ExpressChill for chilling a bottle of wine in just minutes, ExpressThaw for thawing frozen steaks in a few short hours and SelectTemp for keeping foods fresh longer. Sealed pans provide an excellent environment for maintaining the moisture and freshness of fruits and vegetables. These refrigerators are available now at an estimated retail price of $7540 to $8299.
