The Kenmore 79009 is an excellent example of a good bargain fridge. It may not be the most accessible appliance out there; with a cramped fridge, low freezer, and accessibility issues, it certainly has flaws. But despite some physical drawbacks, this fridge really delivers where it counts.

It's a decent fridge, so if you can find a good sale, go right ahead and buy it in good faith.

Impressive temperature control with a sleek, stainless exterior. A few minor quibbles don't keep this from being a great mid-range fridge.
