The new Whirlpool Smart French Door Refrigerator, coming this May, is designed with a pantry-inspired layout, to give families more space and an easier way to organize. It has a unique shelving system. Infinity slide shelves line the perimeter of the refrigerator, so families can move small items to the edges and make room for big, high-use items front and center; industry-first “flippers” that allow families to adjust the shelves up or down without having to clear the shelves off completely; the PerfectPlaces system which allots just the right place for every item-such as Gallon door bins, a small items bin and treasure bin for little items and children’s snacks, and asymmetrical crispers with dividers to display fresh produce like bell peppers up front and store bags of apples in the back, and a full-width “platter pocket” shelf which slides out so families can get to favorite foods easier (especially designed for wide, flat foods such as brownie pans, pizza boxes and lasagna dishes). Among other smart features, this refrigerator can send you notifications when there is a power or Wi-Fi outage and even remind you to change the air and water filters!
