Choosing the right refrigerator for you

 

A new refrigerator is a significant investment for your kitchen. In addition to our refrigerator review, here are some key points to consider before purchasing your new appliance.

 

Styles of refrigerators

 

Refrigerators are one of the most prominent features in your kitchen, and the style you choose can greatly impact both functionality and aesthetics.

Here are the main types of refrigerators and their benefits and drawbacks:

• French door refrigerators: These models are popular for their modern look and versatile storage options. They often come with a higher price tag but offer features like wide shelves and in-door water and ice dispensers. However, freezer space may be limited, and you’ll need more space to open the double doors.
• Side-by-side refrigerators: These refrigerators have the freezer and fridge compartments side by side. They save space and keep both fresh and frozen food at eye level. They are usually less expensive than french door models but have narrower shelves, which might not fit larger items like pizza boxes.
• Top freezer refrigerators: Known for their efficiency and affordability, these models keep the freezer at eye level, with the fridge compartment below. They are straightforward with fewer features and a more basic design. Accessing items on the lower shelves may require bending over.
• Bottom freezer refrigerators: These refrigerators, such as the Electrolux 529L model, place the freezer at the bottom in a drawer format, making fresh food more accessible. They offer more storage space but require bending down to access the freezer.

 

Usable space vs. total capacity

 

When choosing a refrigerator, it’s essential to understand the difference between total capacity and usable space. Total capacity is often listed in litres or cubic feet, but this number can be misleading. Shelves, drawers, and ice makers can reduce the actual space available for storing food. Focus on usable space to ensure the fridge meets your storage needs.

 

 

Measuring your kitchen space

 

Proper measurements are crucial to ensure your new refrigerator fits into your kitchen space. Measure the height, width, and depth of the area where the fridge will go, accounting for door clearance and ventilation space. Double-check these measurements to avoid any installation issues.

 

Features and technology

 

Modern refrigerators come with a variety of features to enhance convenience and food preservation:

• Consistent cooling: Features like EvenTemp technology ensure consistent cooling throughout the fridge. Meanwhile TasteSealFlex adapts to the temperature you need, giving you the freedom to store all your groceries with optimal freshness.
• Adjustable storage: Customizable shelves and bins help organise your groceries efficiently.
• Humidity control: Specialised drawers maintain optimal humidity for fruits and vegetables.
• Smart features: Some models include digital controls, door alarms, and frost-free operation for added convenience.

 

Design and aesthetics

 

 

Choose a refrigerator that complements your kitchen’s design. Consider the finish (stainless steel, matte, etc.) and the overall look of the fridge. French door and side-by-side models often provide a modern aesthetic that can enhance your kitchen’s appearance.

 

Energy efficiency

 

Refrigerators are one of the most energy-consuming appliances in your home. Electrolux models incorporate advanced technologies like the NutriFresh Inverter compressor. This technology maintains consistent temperatures, which helps reduce overall energy consumption and keeps your food fresh.

 

By optimising cooling efficiency, these refrigerators help you save on electricity bills and reduce your carbon footprint.

 

Budget

 

Set a budget before you start shopping. Compare different models within your price range, balancing features, capacity, and brand reputation. Premium models like the UltimateTaste 900 offer extensive features but come at a higher cost.
