How to choose a built-in refrigerator?

Large household appliances usually serve for many years, so each of us strives to choose a functional and durable model. There is a wide variety of products from well-known manufacturers on the market, so there are no particular difficulties in selection. It is only important to correctly evaluate the technical characteristics and operating parameters. Keep in mind that customers often have to make compromises – sacrifice roominess, additional features, or something else.

The most important criteria for built-in refrigerators are:

1. the dimensions of the refrigerator itself;

2. energy class;

3. noise level;

4. useful internal volume;

5. the presence of a defrosting and temperature control system;

6. the presence of a freshness zone.

Among the inexpensive built-in refrigerators, one can note the Belarusian-made unit Atlant XM 4307-000. It has a good price-performance ratio, but it sometimes needs to be defrosted, and when the compressor is turned on, there is a high load on the power grid. The Slovenian built-in refrigerator Gorenje RKI 4181 AW is another practical and inexpensive model. But the spaciousness of his freezer will not suit everyone, and he also sometimes has to be defrosted, although not very often.

If you are looking for a high quality built-in refrigerator with a wide range of features, then LG GR-N319 LLC is worth a look. It features high-quality assembly and ease of use. Although at the same time its power consumption is higher than that of cheaper counterparts. Asko RFN2247I, which consumes significantly less energy, can be a good alternative. The disadvantages include the lack of a NoFrost system for the refrigerating chamber. Based on this, the best choice can be made.
