The Samsung RS22A5561S9 is a 22 cubic foot (approximately 609 liters gross capacity) counter-depth Side-by-Side refrigerator that stands out primarily for its Family Hub™ smart screen. It’s designed to be a central hub for communication, entertainment, and smart home control in your kitchen.
Here’s a detailed breakdown:
Key Features:
Family Hub™ Smart Screen: This is the defining feature. It’s a large (often 21.5-inch) LCD touchscreen on the right refrigerator door that acts as a digital bulletin board, entertainment center, and smart home controller. Features include:

Calendar: Sync schedules with Google and Microsoft 365 calendars.

Internal Cameras: View the contents of your fridge remotely via the SmartThings app, helping with grocery lists and preventing food waste.
SmartThings Integration: Control other Samsung smart appliances and IoT devices directly from the fridge.
Entertainment: Stream music (Spotify, TuneIn), watch TV (Smart View mirrors Samsung Smart TVs), browse the internet, and even access popular video streaming or social media apps.
Morning Brief: Get daily weather forecasts, food reminders, and calendar updates.
Bixby Voice Assistant: Use voice commands for various tasks.
Recipe Apps: Access recipes and cooking instructions.
Counter-Depth Design: This gives the refrigerator a built-in, seamless look by aligning more closely with your kitchen cabinetry.
Digital Inverter Compressor: Samsung’s signature compressor technology, providing:
Energy Efficiency: Adjusts cooling speed based on demand, saving energy.
Quiet Operation: Runs smoothly and quietly.
Durability: Often comes with a substantial warranty (e.g., 20-year parts warranty on the compressor).
All-Around Cooling: Ensures consistent temperature distribution throughout the refrigerator and freezer, keeping food fresh.
No Frost Technology: Prevents ice buildup in the freezer, eliminating manual defrosting.
External Filtered Water and Ice Dispenser: Provides easy access to chilled, filtered water and dispenses both cubed and crushed ice.
In-Door Ice Maker: Maximizes shelf space in the freezer.
Fingerprint Resistant Finish: Helps keep the exterior clean and minimizes smudges.
LED Lighting: Bright and energy-efficient lighting illuminates the interior.
