1. Single chamber. Such a refrigerator does not have a freezer. The ego needs to be supplemented with a separate freezer, which is placed next to it.
2. Two-chamber. A refrigerator and a freezer compartment are provided in one housing.

A single-chamber appliance is an option for a large family, which has a separate freezer. But it is worth considering that it is not suitable for long-term storage at a low temperature - you will not be able to freeze anything. Devices with two cameras are often bought.
