Sub-Zero makes built-in refrigeration only: fridges, freezers, wine storage and fridge freezers designed to sit flush within your kitchen cabinetry. Most of the range is fully integrated and panel-ready, so it disappears behind furniture doors that match your kitchen. A few stainless steel designs are made to be seen. It suits people planning a kitchen around their cold storage rather than fitting a fridge in at the end.
The Designer Series columns are the core of the range. Each column does one job, so you can choose a dedicated fridge, a frost-free freezer with a built-in ice maker, or a wine column with two temperature zones that takes champagne bottles. Fridge columns come in 610mm, 762mm and 914mm widths, and some have an internal water dispenser. Freezer and wine columns run from 457mm to 762mm. Sub-Zero designs these columns to be combined, so you could place a fridge column beside a freezer column or a wine column to build the layout you want. Most come in left and right hand hinge versions, which lets a pair open away from each other.
If you would rather have one appliance, the Designer Series tall fridge freezers in 762mm and 914mm widths combine frost-free storage with an internal water dispenser. There is also a tall wine unit with refrigerator drawers underneath. For a stainless steel look, the Classic side-by-side models are 1219mm wide and have a plumbed-in ice and water dispenser, either on the door or inside. The Professional fridge freezers come with a solid or glass door and include an air purification system, a high-humidity crisper drawer and a roll-out freezer drawer with an automatic ice maker. A Designer undercounter beverage centre covers drinks storage below the worktop.
A good way to narrow the choice is to decide on integrated or stainless steel first, then whether you want separate columns or a single combined unit. Finally, measure the width you can give to each.
