Kitchen cooling appliances
Refrigerators is the plural of refrigerator, an appliance that keeps food and beverages cold through mechanical cooling.
Most households have one in the kitchen.
The informal shortening fridge is more common in casual speech: We need a bigger fridge.
Refrigerators replaced iceboxes in the twentieth century, though some older speakers still use icebox informally.
