It dispenses ice and water in the door
I really like this refrigerator. It dispenses ice and water in the door.
Hi,
I wonder if I could say "It gives out ice and water" instead of "It dispenses ice and water" in the above. If not, what is its colloquial version? Thanks.

Gives out is wrong. Dispenses is the colloquial version. The fridge has an ice and water dispenser.
