I have to go with the 54'. Not just because I own one, but because I think the grille is hands down the sharpest of the 53'-56' range. (Just my opinion of course. lol)

I have a 51 and a 58, but I got to say the 56 is my favorite, they just look great... Dad had one when I was growing up, which probably explains a lot. The refrigerators look good, I like them because they are seldom seen, and the 48-51's are cool just because.
