I can't sleep so I have been thinking about how to update my kitchen. I really would appreciate some input on which type of fridge-freezer to buy.

I want a FF with cold water and an ice dispenser. I would prefer to get it plumbed in but it is not essential. It has to be a frost (or is it ice) free machine.

Are the American For Funks Sake better than the tall ones? The flat is old and it has high ceilings but I think I could fit either in.

Any help with this is much appreciated. The FF that came with the flat is a good one but it is far too small for me.

I've just recovered from the ordeal of getting my bathroom refitted. :-)

That'll learn you to use abbreviations :-)

Aren't American fridges tall anyway ?

Can't answer you question as I've little experience but I had intended to get an American type when I first moved in to my place. But my woman gave me her old chest freezer, as she was buying new, and so I never got around to buying one.
American fridges are tall, traditional fridge freezers may be an extra 12 cm tall or so. Depends what style you prefer and if you have a gap wide enough for the wider American style
Can you get fridge/freezer together in one appliance if you go for an American style one?
One with an ice dispenser sounds a great idea , particularly in this weather but I would guess it has to be plumbed in.
Is there somewhere like a Curry's near you, I must admit I like to see appliances etc for myself, I am useless at visualising stuff via the internet, even if I later buy on line
They don't have to be plumbed in, Rosetta. Some have tanks that have to be manually filled.
I had a water connection put in especially for the FF I failed to buy :-O

I wasn't keen on having to fill the water container all the blessed time. Plumbing was going to be prerequisite.
Bloody-hell, nearly six and a half grand for a fridge-freezer.
Yeah, but it's only that low price because you're getting it direct.
I would recommend a Samsung.

Thanks, everybody.

Nobody said that the American Fridge Freezers were pretty looking but not worth the money or badmouthed a standard FF.

I will see how much space I can find on that side of the kitchen and decide which to get. My kitchen is a strange shape and there seems to be too much wasted space.

Just be sure whichever fridge/freezer you decide on will fit in the designated space and has the capacity in both fridge and freezer that you need.
I have to large upright freezers in my garage and a standard undercounter fridge in my kitchen. It works for me. At least if the fridge or freezer breaks down the other will work.
