GE Monogram® Introduces Built-in All-Refrigerators and All-Freezers, Re-imagined with All-New Style Options and Interior Features

April 20, 2008

Completely re-imagined with new style options, improved lighting, and interior storage features, GE Monogram® All-Refrigerators and All-Freezers offer new possibilities for food preservation and kitchen design.

Wide-Open Fresh Food Storage, with Brilliant Illumination on Every Level
Opening the door of the 36-inch All-Refrigerator sheds brilliant light on the difference these units can make in the home. A halogen-lighting system recessed into the ceiling of the refrigerator casts a glow over all contents, without compromising space. A slimmer control panel also frees up space.

Adjustable, spill-proof glass shelves easily accommodate baking sheets and party platters, and gallon-size door bins make room for large containers.
The Monogram 36-inch All-Freezer offers the same brilliant interior lighting. Additionally, the all-new ice drawer in the freezer provides easier access to ice — for everyone in the family, including the kids. The All-Freezer also features slide-out baskets and gallon-size door bins.

Advanced Features that Can’t Be Seen or Heard
All models also offer advanced features that make a substantial impact in the kitchen, without making themselves visible. Hidden discreetly behind the hinged overhead panel is GE’s water filtration system, which provides clean, fresh-tasting water for the freezer’s icemaker without taking up valuable space in the fresh food section. A variable speed compressor allows quiet operation and energy-efficient performance. In fact, Monogram’s All-Refrigerators and All-Freezers meet 2008 ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency.

Sleek Sophistication, with Ease of Installation
Monogram has drastically reduced trim kits in the All-Refigerators and All-Freezers. Now, all models can be built into cabinetry and installed together without the need for additional kits. Depending on your lifestyle needs, you may prefer to keep the All-Refrigerator close at hand in the kitchen, while installing the All-Freezer in the pantry or near other food-preparation zones.

Also designed to coordinate with other Monogram products, new All-Refrigerators and All-Freezers are now available in three distinct styles:

Professional models — The premium-grade 304 stainless steel exterior conveys both a sense of solidity and beauty with heavy-duty tubular handles, louvered grille and chamfered, hand-finished edges.
Integrated models — Heavy-gauge 304 stainless steel extends completely across the doors, wrapping beautifully around the edges. Long, slim tubular handles enhance the overall look and feel.
Custom models can be personalized to match the cabinetry in your kitchen and include your choice of handles.
The estimated retail prices* of Monogram built-in All-Refrigerators are $6,049-$6,249 (professional) and $4,899-$5,899 (integrated and custom). The price ranges of the Monogram built-in All-Freezers are $6,249-$6,449 (professional) and $5099-$6099 (integrated and custom).
