Who this American fridge freezer is best for

This model is ideal for larger households, regular bulk shoppers and anyone who likes to keep a well-stocked fridge and freezer. The 634-litre capacity comfortably handles a big weekly shop – Samsung reckons around 35 bags – so it suits families, home cooks and keen entertainers.

It’s a premium purchase rather than a budget choice, so it makes most sense if you value smart tech, convenience and design, not just cold storage. If you’ve got an open-plan kitchen and want a statement appliance that genuinely earns its space, this fits the bill.

The RS90F64EETEU also suits tech‑savvy buyers who like smart home integration. With Wi‑Fi, Bixby and SmartThings, it’s an easy fit if you already use Samsung devices or want app-based control and energy monitoring.

You will need a suitable mains water connection, so it’s best for homes where plumbing in an appliance is straightforward – for example during a kitchen refit or where there’s already a cold water feed nearby.

What we like

The standout strength here is sheer capacity. With 389 litres of fridge space and 225 litres in the freezer, there’s room for fresh produce, batch cooking and frozen favourites without constant juggling.

Total No Frost, all-around cooling and multi-flow air circulation work together to keep temperatures even and prevent icy build-up, so you don’t have to defrost and food stays fresher for longer. The dedicated Fresh Zone and twin vegetable drawers help keep salad, fruit and meat in better condition.

The plumbed water and ice dispenser with Dual Auto Ice Maker is a genuine everyday luxury. You get chilled water, cubed or crushed ice on tap, ideal for families and for entertaining, without manually filling tanks.

On the tech side, Wi‑Fi connectivity, SmartThings support and on-door touchscreen with Bixby voice control make it unusually smart for a fridge freezer. You can tweak temperatures, activate power cool or holiday mode and keep an eye on energy use from your phone.

Noise levels are impressively low at a rated 35 dB, helped by the inverter compressor, so it should blend into open-plan spaces without constant background hum.

Where it could be better

You pay a clear premium for the design, capacity and smart features, so it won’t suit tighter budgets or those who just want a straightforward fridge freezer.

Because it’s plumbed, you’ll either need an existing water supply where the appliance will sit or be prepared to pay for installation work. Renters or those unable to alter their kitchen may find a non-plumbed model more practical.

The quoted energy rating is E, which is fairly typical for a large American-style unit but not outstanding. AI Energy Mode helps, yet running costs will still be higher than a smaller, more efficient fridge.

Finally, the two-year manufacturer warranty is decent but not exceptional for a premium appliance. Some rivals offer longer cover on certain components, so it’s worth factoring this into your long-term plans.

Everyday use

Living with the RS90F64EETEU should feel straightforward from day one. The side-by-side layout gives you full-height fridge and freezer columns, so everything is at eye level and you’re not constantly bending down to rummage in drawers. Four fridge shelves, twin salad crispers and multiple door balconies make it easy to organise bottles, jars and fresh food.

The LED interior lighting is bright and even, so you can actually see what’s lurking at the back, and there’s interior lighting in the freezer as well. Adjustable shelves mean you can reconfigure space quickly for taller items like large bottles, cakes or batch-cooked dishes.

The on-door touchscreen keeps everyday controls in one tidy place. Changing temperatures, activating fast freeze or switching on holiday mode becomes a couple of taps, rather than hunting for buttons hidden inside. If you prefer, you can use voice control via Bixby or adjust settings through the SmartThings app from the sofa.

Maintenance is refreshingly low effort. Total No Frost and auto defrost in the fridge mean no more scraping ice off the freezer walls, and the inverter compressor plus metal cooling help the fridge recover quickly after the door’s been open – handy when you’re loading a big shop. The only ongoing inconvenience is remembering that it’s plumbed: once installed it’s easy, but moving it later may be trickier than a non-plumbed alternative.

Performance and features

As a core cooling appliance, the Samsung Series 9 RS90F64EETEU covers the fundamentals very well. The large total capacity is backed up by all-around cooling and multi-flow air distribution, designed to keep a steady temperature on every shelf rather than hot and cold spots. That’s particularly useful when it’s fully loaded, as food at the back is less likely to get too cold or forgotten.

The freezer offers a full four-star rating and 225 litres of space, which is ample for long-term storage. Power Freeze and fast freeze functions quickly drop the temperature when you add a big grocery haul or want to lock in freshness for meat and frozen veg. On the fridge side, Power Cool helps bring drinks and fresh food down to temperature faster, which is great before guests arrive.

Smart features are a real point of difference. With Wi‑Fi and SmartThings, you can monitor and adjust settings remotely, receive alerts if the door is left open, and take advantage of AI Energy Mode to help trim running costs by optimising how the fridge operates. On-device Bixby support and web browsing via the touchscreen lean into the “AI Home” positioning, turning the fridge into more of a kitchen hub than just a white good.

The plumbed Dispenser system with Dual Auto Ice Maker pushes convenience further. You get filtered water and a steady supply of both cubed and crushed ice, and you never have to remember to refill a tank. For families who use ice daily or love iced drinks and smoothies, this quickly becomes a must-have rather than a nice extra.

With a low 35 dB noise rating and an inverter compressor, it should run quietly and smoothly. The climate classification from SN to T means it’s built to operate reliably in a wide range of room temperatures, from cooler utility rooms to warmer kitchens, which boosts confidence if your appliance isn’t in the most insulated part of the house.

Value for money

This is clearly positioned towards the premium end of American fridge freezers, both in terms of price and specification. You’re paying for more than just size: the smart platform, plumbed ice and water, inverter compressor, Total No Frost system and generous storage all add to the package.

If you simply want basic chilled storage, there are cheaper American-style models that will do the job. Where the RS90F64EETEU justifies its price is with day-to-day convenience and long-term ease of use: no defrosting, excellent organisation, plentiful ice on demand and smart controls that make it easier to manage.

The strong owner rating of 4.8 out of 5 suggests most buyers feel they’re getting good value despite the premium cost. For households that will fully use the capacity and the smart features, the extra outlay looks like a solid investment. For smaller homes or more occasional use, it may be more than you realistically need.

Our verdict

The Samsung Series 9 AI Home RS90F64EETEU is a highly capable, feature-rich American fridge freezer that’s clearly aimed at larger, modern households. It combines masses of storage with clever cooling, plumbed ice and water, and some of the best-connected smart features you’ll find in this category.

Its main drawbacks are the premium price, the need for a plumbed water supply and an energy rating that, while acceptable for its size, is not cutting-edge. If you’re on a tighter budget or don’t care about smart features, a simpler model will make more financial sense.

However, if you want a statement appliance that can genuinely make everyday life easier – from always-cold drinks and ice to hassle-free storage and app control – this Samsung makes a compelling case and is clearly well liked by existing owners.
