In the top mount freezer, the freezer is on the top while the fridge is at the bottom. These are the conventional ones and are mostly used.

Today, most of the brands manufacture refrigerators with an Inverter compressor. The inverter compressor is always on, and just changes its speed depending on the cooling requirement. On the other hand, the standard compressor keeps on switching on & off to achieve the desired temperature. Thus, the standard one fetches more power and the inverter one saves power which inturn saves money.

A refrigerator is rated for power consumption by BEE(Bureau of electric efficiency). This rating is from 1 to 5 stars where more the stars more is the power savings. Thus, if your fridge has a 3-5 star rating then it will save you on electricity bills.

A convertible refrigerator is one that can function in different modes for better efficiency & effectiveness. Some of them enable the freezer to be converted into a fridge and vice versa. If you are not using your fridge then only the freezer is activated. Similarly, if you want to use only frozen food, the fridge is paused to function. Thus, convertible refrigerators help in power savings and efficient operation.
