Our Review
The Samsung RM80F23VM 24 cu. ft. Bottom Freezer is a 23.5 cu. ft. bottom-freezer refrigerator from Samsung, sitting in the $1,000–$2,000 range. With a 16.7 cu. ft. fresh-food compartment and 6.8 cu. ft. of freezer space, it's positioned for families of 4-5.
What stands out
This is squarely a mainstream model — Samsung optimizes for value, parts availability, and a feature set that covers what most households actually use. You won't find exotic materials, but everything that ships works as advertised.
ENERGY STAR Most Efficient certification means it sits in the top ~10% of the category for energy use. At ~510 kWh/year, expect roughly $81 in annual running cost at the U.S. average electricity rate — meaningfully less than older models from a decade ago.
Layout and capacity
Exterior dimensions are 35.9" W × 72.1" H × 32.0" D — check your opening, especially the depth with handles extended. Total useable capacity is 23.5 cu. ft., split 16.7 fresh / 6.8 freezer.
Bottom line
The Samsung RM80F23VM 24 cu. ft. Bottom Freezer is a strong mainstream choice — most of what people actually use a fridge for, at a price that makes sense. Service parts are widely available.
