• Designer versus Classic differences

Answer:

The key differences between the Designer (DET, DEC) and the Classic (CL) lines are as follows:

Designer (DET, DEC) Series:

Designer models are all panel ready to accept custom panels. This helps create a seamless look with other cabinetry.

• Designers typically select models from the Designer line, as the Designer look helps appliances blend into the kitchen.
  

Classic (CL) Series:

With Classic models, the presence of the refrigerator in the kitchen is more apparent.

• The Classic line expands on the traditional look that Sub-Zero has had for decades.
• Some Classic refrigerators are panel ready and accept custom panels, while others have stainless steel exteriors.
• If the unit will be freestanding, or the sides of the refrigerator will be partially exposed, Sub-Zero recommends the Classic line.

To visually compare different models, refer to the Sub-Zero Refrigeration Product Page.
