Hey folks! Today, I’m stoked to introduce you to Samsung’s mid-to-high-end BESPOKE four-door refrigerator—a sleek, ultra-thin model with a zero-gap flush design that’s about to revolutionize your kitchen space.

Size Matters, But Not Like You Think

With a whopping 501 liters of capacity, you’d expect this fridge to be a colossal beast. But guess what? Its dimensions are just 32.8 x 27 x 75.6 inches (that’s 834 x 686 x 1920 mm for my metric friends). Other fridges with similar capacity are either wider or chunkier, hogging up your precious kitchen real estate. Samsung’s model is thinner overall, designed to maximize vertical space and minimize floor space. It’s like the skyscraper of fridges!

A Touch of Glass and Zero Gaps

The front sports a matte glass finish reminiscent of the Samsung Z Fold5—smooth and oh-so-touchable. Now, let’s talk about this zero-gap flush design. What does that even mean? Well, the fridge’s cooling system is front-mounted at the bottom, so you don’t need to leave extra space on the sides or top for ventilation. It can snugly fit into your cabinetry with just a 2 mm gap—basically seamless. And “flush” means it sits perfectly aligned with your cabinets without awkwardly sticking out. Even with this snug fit, the doors open fully without banging into your cabinets. It’s a dream come true for anyone obsessed with a sleek kitchen aesthetic (looking at you, interior design perfectionists).

Thin Walls, Big Space—It’s What’s Inside That Counts

Thanks to Samsung’s space optimization tech, the fridge’s inner walls are thinner, giving you more internal space compared to traditional fridges of the same size—and they even squeezed in three evaporators! Basically, it’s all about that thin crust, big filling vibe. Pulling this off is no small feat in the tech world. Oh, and did I mention? It also has an auto-open feature for the fridge compartment—just a light touch, and voilà!

Triple Cooling System: Because Two Isn’t Enough

So, what’s a triple cooling system anyway? At the heart of a fridge is the circulation system made up of a compressor and evaporator. In single-cooling fridges, there’s just one evaporator, and both the fridge and freezer share the same cooling system. It’s like having one AC unit trying to cool two rooms—inefficient and prone to mixing odors. Dual-cooling fridges step it up with two evaporators, separately controlling the fridge and freezer temperatures.

But Samsung took it up a notch with this fridge—it boasts an independent triple cooling system. That means three separate evaporators: one for the fridge compartment, one for the freezer, and one for the lower right wide-range variable temperature zone. Each zone gets its own climate control, which means better cooling efficiency and no funky odor mixing. Paired with the smart inverter compressor’s flexible temp control, you’re getting precise temps, high efficiency, and low noise. And let me tell you, that separate wide-range variable temperature zone in the lower right? Super handy.

The Magic of the Wide-Range Variable Temperature Zone

This fridge’s wide-range variable temperature zone can adjust from a chilly -9°F all the way up to 37°F (-23°C to +3°C for those metric folks). Basically, it can be an extra freezer for all your frozen goodies. But if you’re not big on frozen foods and need more fridge space, you can flip it to act as an additional fridge compartment. There are six cooling modes in total, including a “soft freeze” that’s somewhere between traditional freezing and refrigeration.

I used to just chuck raw meat into the freezer and toss veggies into the fridge—simple as that. But when I saw this fridge’s multitude of temperature modes, I did a deep dive and discovered that different foods have wildly different ideal storage temps. Who knew, right?

Take me, for instance—I absolutely love blueberries and Chilean cherries. Fun fact: Chilean cherries hit the market during their summer (our winter up here in the Northern Hemisphere). So after New Year’s, they’re pretty much gone. That’s when I stock up and stash a few boxes. But here’s the kicker—cherries and blueberries don’t last long, and they need different storage temps. With this fridge, I can set the variable temp zone to around 30°F (-1°C to 0°C), which is perfect not just for storing fish and meat but also for fruits like cherries. Once I’ve devoured all the cherries (which doesn’t take long, trust me), I can dial it back down to around -4°F (-20°C), like the left freezer compartment, and use it for frozen meats and such.

Speaking of meat, there’s a whole science to storing it. I always thought freshly slaughtered meat was the best for cooking. But after some research, I learned that meat that’s been quickly frozen and kept at 32–39°F (0–4°C) in cold-chain storage (a.k.a. chilled meat) is actually better for cooking. So, while I’m stashing ice cream and frozen dumplings in the freezer, I can use the wide-range variable temp zone to set a specific temp just for chilled meat.

Turns out, a good fridge not only keeps us healthy but also seriously ups the deliciousness of our food. Of course, the fridge and ingredients are just the starting point—you still need those cooking skills! If you’ve got family members who love seasonal fruits, or maybe grandparents who like to store tea leaves and grains, this fridge can flexibly adapt to your cooling needs. It’s like effectively boosting your fridge’s freezing and cooling capacity—a real win-win.

Real-World Test: The Spinach Challenge

At the bottom of the fridge compartment, there are two special freshness drawers. One’s perfect for storing fruits and veggies that need that extra humidity to stay crisp. The other’s ideal for precious dry goods like tea leaves, nuts, or even sea cucumbers (if that’s your thing). These drawers have automatic magnetic closures—just push them, and they snap shut, sealing in the freshness. Plus, keeping your fresh produce separate from other foods means no weird flavor mingling.

Many fruits and veggies need temps around 32°F (0°C) and over 90% humidity to stay their freshest. So, let’s put this fridge’s preservation power to the test! We’re using spinach as our guinea pig—monitoring its water loss and spoilage over time. We’ll place three bunches of fresh spinach in a 68°F (20°C) room, on the fridge shelf, and in the moist freshness drawer, and record their appearance every 12 hours for seven days.

• Day 1: The room-temp spinach started wilting and darkening, while the spinach on the fridge shelf and in the freshness drawer looked the same.
• Day 3: The room-temp spinach was a sad, shriveled mess. The fridge shelf spinach was doing okay, but the freshness drawer spinach looked like it just came from the market.
• Day 7: The room-temp spinach was a goner—yellow and spoiled. The fridge shelf spinach had minor wilting, but the freshness drawer spinach? Still standing tall and fresh as ever.

So even if you’re a once-a-week grocery shopper, this fridge’s preservation powers mean you can store your veggies without worry. You’ll come home each day to fresh fruits and veggies—no more sad, wilted produce!

Joining the Samsung Smart Ecosystem

This fridge also plays nicely with Samsung’s smart ecosystem. Just use your Samsung phone to scan the QR code inside the fridge, and you can add it to the Samsung SmartThings IoT hub with a tap. Swipe down in your phone’s control center, open device control, and you’ll see your fridge’s status. From there, you can remotely adjust temperatures, activate quick cooling/freezing modes, choose specific preservation modes for the variable temp zone—you name it!

I mean, it’s trendy for big international brands to go green these days. Not just our pals over at Apple—Samsung’s fridges are riding that eco-friendly wave too. In the phone’s Energy menu, I can check out the fridge’s energy usage, costs, and even activate the AI energy-saving mode. It’s like using AI to smartly adjust energy consumption, giving Mother Earth a bit of a break. Talk about an AI-powered super fridge!

The Final Scoop

This fridge is the latest in Samsung’s BESPOKE series, and like previous models, it comes in four color options. With its ultra-thin dimensions, zero-gap flush design that saves space, and ultra-thin inner walls optimizing storage, it’s a sight for sore eyes. The smart inverter compressor paired with the independent triple cooling system and the wide-range variable temp zone packs a punch on the inside too.

It sips just one kilowatt-hour of electricity per day and integrates seamlessly into the Samsung smart ecosystem. With the AI super energy-saving mode, it’s even more energy-efficient. Plus, the smart inverter compressor comes with a whopping 20-year warranty. It’s the whole package—stylish, practical, and gives you peace of mind.
