TOP 5 energy efficient refrigerators for a large family

Bosch is a German company that has earned worldwide recognition due to the constant introduction of innovative technologies into production. The KGN39VL45 refrigerator is the perfect combination of functionality and practicality with a laconic "Bosh" design.

The total useful volume of the refrigerator is 366 liters, of which 87 is in the freezer, which allows you to freely place a large amount of fresh food and ready meals.

The interior space of the refrigerator completely repeats the ergonomics of another German grandee Siemens KG39NXW306: 4 glass shelves, a metal bracket for bottles, 2 drawers for storing fresh food (freshness zone), a container for vegetables and fruits, 4 door baskets and 3 drawers for freezing.

The similarity does not end there. In Bosch we see all the same functions and technologies as in Siemens: NoFrost, Super freeze (up to — 24 °C), multi Air flow, Air Fresh filter, VitaFresh, providing optimal conditions for storage/defrosting/freezing of various types of products.

However, there are differences in almost twins. And they are essential. The price of Bosch KGN39VL45 is an order of magnitude higher than Siemens KG39NXW306, but they also have a significant difference in electricity consumption. Bosch KGN39VL45 has a higher energy consumption class A+++, which provides a modest power consumption of the unit — only 182 kW/year. In addition, the noise at work is as much as 3 dB lower than that of his countryman.

As a result, we have, in fact, an analogue of the above-mentioned Siemens model, improved in terms of energy consumption and noise of the compressor, but under the equally popular German name Bosch KGN39VL45.

The products of the Gorenje trademark are represented in more than 90 countries of the world and account for 4% of the volume of all household appliances presented in European markets. Gorenje ORK 192 is an impeccable combination of original design and innovation.

The "chip" of the model is its retro design and a rich palette of colours, of which there are as many as nine, thanks to which the ORK 192 can serve as a stylish addition in any interior. But getting such beauty, you will have to sacrifice the possibility of hanging the door.

Inside, everything is quite modern. The refrigerator with a volume of 227 liters contains 3 glass shelves and 3 height-adjustable door balconies, as well as a bracket for bottles. Under the lower glass shelf there is a FreshZone compartment that allows you to store fresh food (meat, fish) at a temperature from 0 to 3 °C. In addition to FreshZone, the refrigerator compartment is equipped with a CrispZone container for vegetables and fruits with the function of self-adjusting the humidity level.

But the absence of NoFrost was somewhat surprising, especially since the price of the model is higher than many analogues with the presence of this technology. More precisely, NoFrost that is, but only in the freezer.

There are also 3 boxes of different sizes in the volume of 95 liters. The box located in the centre, XXL SpaceBox, allows you to freeze a large bird (goose, turkey) or a large piece of meat entirely.

Thanks to the proprietary DynamiCooling cooling system in combination with IonAir technology, perfect air circulation is provided in the refrigerator compartment, eliminating up to 95% of various bacteria.

AdapTech's unique adaptive technology remembers the user's habits and independently regulates the temperature regime of the refrigerator, deliberately lowering the degree before each door opening.

The freezing capacity in this model is quite small — only 4.5 kg / day, but the thermal insulation is one of the best among such refrigerators — 30 hours of cold preservation after a power outage.

It is noteworthy that in volume and height, the ORK 192 is inferior to competitive models, having a total capacity of 322 liters in dimensions 194x60x64 cm. At the same time, despite the "stunting", the A++ energy consumption class provides not the most impressive indicator of the annual electricity consumption of 232 kW.

Nevertheless, Gorenje ORK 192 is the optimal choice for a family of 3 — 4 people, as well as an original solution for an office, coworking or lounge area.

LG Electronics products have long been loved by east european users. Stylish design, the use of advanced technologies — that's what makes this brand recognizable. The refrigerator model GA-B499TGBM is a unique combination of style and technology, which will not disappoint.

GA-B499TGBM is available on the market in three colours: black, grey and red. Thanks to the mirror finish of the door and LED lighting, the refrigerator will become the highlight that will decorate any interior. The dimensions of the unit are standard in its niche 200x60x69 cm, and the capacity will please any owner — 360 liters of useful volume.

The refrigerator compartment harmoniously accommodates 4 glass shelves, a box for vegetables and fruits and a container for storing fresh food. One of the shelves has the possibility of folding, using which you can place high pots or cans in the refrigerator. There are 4 baskets on the door, the upper one is closed, the lowest one is designed for storing bottles. The glass container can be conveniently placed on the built-in metal bracket.

The freezer compartment has a useful area of 105 liters and accommodates three drawers, an ice tray and two grate shelves. In terms of spaciousness and ergonomics, the model is at its height.

But with energy consumption, not everything is as smooth as we would like.The annual consumption of GA-B499TGBM is 246 kW, which is an average for refrigerators with energy consumption class A++, and it loses almost 100 kW to the three pluses.

A unique feature of the model is the possibility of remote control via Wi-Fi connection. With the help of a phone or tablet, the user can change the temperature in the chambers, turn on the freezing / defrosting mode, and also receive a message about an open refrigerator door.

Using the Smart Diagnosis function allows you to minimize the trips of the owner of the refrigerator to the service centers, since information about the malfunctions of the device will be sent to the technical support employee directly via the Internet.

As a result of multi-flow cooling of LG Nature FRESH, the same temperature conditions are created in every corner of the refrigerator, which allows you to store any products on any shelf.

Thanks to the FreshBalancer technology, it is possible to independently set the humidity level in the fruit and vegetable box based on what is planned to be placed in it. The freshness zone is also endowed with a useful FreshConverter function, which allows you to set a certain storage temperature for various products (meat, fish, vegetables). A set of useful functions could not do without the Total NoFrost system. It works on both cameras.

LG GA-B499TGBM will undoubtedly appeal to connoisseurs of modern technology, aestheticians and people who are very scrupulous about the quality of the contents of their refrigerator. However, you will have to pay pretty decent money for all this.

Each refrigerator model from Liebherr is the realization of many years of experience of German specialists and constant modernization of production. The CNP 4758 model is a worthy representative of energy—efficient premium refrigerators.

CNP 4758 consists of refrigerator and freezer compartments equipped with separate lighting systems.

The refrigerator compartment with a volume of 220 liters accommodates 5 shelves (one of which is for bottles), 2 door shelves, 2 VarioSafe containers that provide convenient storage of small containers, tubes and packages, and a BioCool vegetable box that allows the user to independently adjust the humidity level in it.

The freezer compartment with a record volume of 129 liters in its class, consists of 4 drawers and is equipped with 2 cold storage batteries that slow down the process of defrosting products when the power supply stops abruptly.

The refrigerator is controlled by a 7-inch touch screen with digital temperature indication.

The innovative SmartDevice system used in the model supports the Smart Home technology and allows you to control and control the refrigerator remotely.

The refrigerator compartment is equipped with the PowerCooling FreshAir system, which guarantees not only a uniform temperature distribution in the chamber, but also, thanks to the built-in carbon filter, ensures the absence of foreign odours in it and an perfect freshness zone.

Like most refrigerators, this model is equipped with an open door indication, but, thanks to the SoftSystem shock-absorbing door closer, a situation in which you forget the door is open and it will not close will simply not arise. But this is not all the buns that CNP 4758 pleases. The model is literally packed with technologies, among which, in addition to those already listed, NoFrost and VarioSpace (a useful volume adjuster in the freezer that allows you to manoeuvre free space).

In addition, despite the high freezing capacity of products — 16 kg / day, and the impressive volume of the freezer, the economical energy consumption of the device — 145 kW / year pleases. After all, this is the lowest indicator in the A+++ class.

In general, Liebherr CNP 4758 is such an perfect refrigerator in all respects that even its high price does not upset the balance.
