Overview
This HTS category, 8418.10.00.85, encompasses "Other" combined refrigerator-freezers that are of the compression type, have a refrigerated volume of 382 liters and over, and do not fall under the specific descriptions of French door or top freezer compartment configurations. These appliances are designed for both refrigeration and freezing and are characterized by having separate external doors or drawers for each compartment.
This classification distinguishes itself by including those combined refrigerator-freezers that do not precisely fit into the more specific sibling categories. For instance, it captures models where the freezer compartment might be located on the side, or in a less common configuration that doesn't align with the "French door" (typically two doors for the refrigerator section over a bottom freezer drawer) or "top freezer" (freezer compartment situated above the refrigerator compartment) arrangements. The key distinguishing factor is the absence of these specific structural layouts.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 8418.10.00.85 remains on the physical configuration of the doors and drawers, the type of cooling mechanism (compression), and the overall refrigerated volume, ensuring that items not explicitly defined in more granular sibling categories are appropriately placed.
