15 of the highest quality refrigerators

The refrigerator is a rather expensive thing and is bought for many years. A person over 10 years of life can change a dozen cars, but definitely not refrigerators. The kitchen will show off all the same, "true" old man. That is why each of us approaches the choice of the main kitchen appliances with a special sense of responsibility. Help in choosing a quality model will help our ranking of the best refrigerators.

Choice of climate class refrigerator

The climate class is not the most important characteristic of a refrigerator, but in some cases it is worth looking at. Literally, this characteristic means at what temperature range the device can function normally. The operating temperature range of modern refrigerators is from +10 to + 43 degrees. In total there are 4 designations of climatic classes: N (normal), SN (subnormal), ST (subtropics) and T (tropics).

When should you look at the climate class? If the refrigerator will stand only at home, that is, at normal room temperature (~ 23 oz.), The climate class is irrelevant. It is unlikely that you will bring your dwelling to critical negative or positive temperatures. However, there are cases when the refrigeration unit is purchased for installation in non-residential premises or in summer kitchens, when the temperature in the room, in fact, depends on the weather conditions outside the window. Then you should look at the operating temperature range, because abrupt deviations from the norm can lead to different consequences (from malfunctioning to equipment breakdown).

The best firms (brands) of refrigerators - whom to prefer?

It is no secret that the most reliable and high-quality refrigerators produce famous brands that have dedicated this business for decades. Even if the production is not located in the brand’s homeland, but in China, the technological process remains the same, and this is the most important thing. In the table below we have listed the most famous and purchased brands of refrigerators.

Company name	Brand Country	Date of foundation of the company, year
Liebherr	Germany	1949
LG	South Korea	1958
Bosch	Germany	1886
BEKO	Turkey	1967
Gorenje	Slovenia	1950
Samsung	South Korea	1969
ATLANT	Belarus	1959
Indesit	Italy	1975
Biryusa	Russia	1963

Of course, buying a device from a well-known company does not guarantee absolute reliability and quality. In some cases, we even have to overpay for the “name”. Nevertheless, the probability of getting a marriage and problems with warranty service will be a priori less than in the case of a refrigerator from a little-known brand.

However, recently, little-known manufacturers began to create really high-quality models of refrigerators.They are significantly superior to the well-known counterparts in their characteristics, and often cost less or the same. We offer to study refrigerators of different categories, from “state employees” to the premium class, including in the form of Side by Side.

3 ATLANT XM 6025-031

The product of the Belarusian origin, ATLANT XM 6025-031 refrigerator occupies the third position in the rating of “state employees”. The model can not boast of modern filling.

However, ATLANT stands out with an affordable price and the best capacity of 384 liters - 1.5 times the capacity of its competitors.

In addition, the "Belarusian" has the most powerful freezing - up to 15 kg per day. There are two compressors here - this will allow defrosting the chambers separately, which covers the lack of the “Nou Frost” system.

2 Shivaki BMR-2001DNFX

Beautiful and comfortable model for a small kitchen. In the review, the refrigerator is praised for the spaciousness and good location of the shelves. There is an electronic control with a bright LED-backlit and the ability to outweigh the door.

It has a fairly high net volume - 326 liters. A well-thought-out interior space will allow shelves to be filled to capacity, without at the same time reducing convenience. There are three shelves in the freezer compartment. The refrigerator is able to freeze up to 4 kg of product per day. The supercooling mode works in the refrigerator compartment, so that the products will be intact.

The refrigerator is well built and well thought out. Shelves can be rearranged in height, as convenient. There are special compartments for canned food and bottles, but you can safely put something else in them.

Users really like the model - it has almost no negative feedback. In the reviews, customers note not only the low noise level, but also the high quality of the device as a whole. Among the shortcomings is the drip defrost system instead of No Frost, but this is corrected by Smart Frost technology, due to which frost forms much slower.

• Without power keeps the cold up to a day

Disadvantages:

• Small box for vegetables

More expensive models of refrigerators differ from budget options not only in size, but also in general technical characteristics. As a rule, they are more capacious, have a high assessment of energy efficiency, and are also made using better materials and technologies.

3 Liebherr CNef 3915

Liebherr CNef 3915 rightfully occupies one of the leading positions in its class. Very low power consumption (263 kWh / year, corresponding to the A ++ energy efficiency class), coupled with the high displacement capacity of the refrigerating and freezing chambers, are the main criterion when choosing a refrigerator. In particular, they also note the noble appearance, the low level of noise emitted and the extreme ease of control. Of the shortcomings can be noted dual system defrost. If the modern function No Frost is used in the freezer, then in the refrigeration this role is performed by the drip system, which requires periodic defrosting.

Advantages:

• high energy efficiency class (A ++) - a very economical refrigerator;
• total internal volume is 340 liters;

Advantages:

• Inverter compressor
• Control from the smartphone
• Cellular lid of the vegetable department
• Total no frost
• Air filtration

Disadvantages:

• Ill-conceived door

In addition, the availability of technological control system, which allows you to adjust the temperature not only in individual chambers, but also in different places within the same compartment, is captivating. The main and only drawback of such refrigerators is the high price, but quality always has to pay a lot.

2 Samsung RS-552 NRUASL

A typical representative of Side by Side refrigerators with a total internal volume of 538 liters. Needless to say: the capacity is decent, but not the largest in this class. The peculiarity of the system is the presence of the “Holiday” mode and the function of super-freezing, which applies exclusively to the freezer. Both compartments are defrosted using the No Frost system, so it’s guaranteed that you won’t have to puzzle over the maintenance of the refrigerator. In terms of energy consumption, the situation is also good: consumers really like the economy of a large unit (only 431 kWh / year). However, a small flaw also have a place to be. Freezing capacity equal to 12 kilograms per day. This is not what you expect from a refrigerator of this level.

Advantages:

• low power consumption;
• optimal price;
• availability of the mode "Vacation" and the functions of super-freezing;
• inverter compressor and a complete system of defrost No Frost.

Disadvantages:

1 Liebherr SBS 7212

Liebherr SBS 7212 is a powerful representative of Side by Side refrigerators (side cooler). The peculiarity of the model is that a different defrosting system is used for the freezing and refrigerating compartments. For the freezer, this is the “Nou Frost”, and for the refrigerator - the drip system.

In our review of the best refrigerators, Liebherr SBS 7212 is a clear favorite in terms of capacity. The total usable volume is 651 liters. What can fit in it? Yes, whatever.

According to the freezing rate, the model is also among the leaders, with an indicator of 20 kg / day. To the power and capacity added "pleasant things" in the form of a cold battery and supercooling mode. It is a pity that the price of Liebherr SBS 7212 is one of the highest in the rating - almost $ 2,000. But believe me, the price justifies the quality.
