Frigidaire, Side-by-Side

/fri-juh-dair, sahyd-bahy-sahyd/  n.
  1. 1. A domestic paragon of capacious elegance, featuring dual chilled chambers that stand in ostentatious parallel, prepared to preserve victuals with all the subtlety of a colossus.
  2. 2. An appliance of notable girth, commanding respect and access in equal measure, often seen occupying kitchen territory with unapologetic breadth; esp. one that fits a week's groceries with room to spare.
In a sentence,

"The Frigidaire, Side-by-Side, is the thiccc centerpiece of my culinary domain."

Etymology,

The brand name 'Frigidaire' is derived from the company founded in 1918 by General Motors, stemming from 'frigid' plus 'air'; the side-by-side configuration was introduced commercially by Amana in 1949, doubling the appliance's standing footprint and, with it, its kitchen authority.
