The most economical two-chamber refrigerators

The LG GW-B509PSAP refrigerator with independent cooling circuits demonstrates good efficiency (173 kWh/year) with optimal internal space (384 l). The noise level is low (35 dB), so the whole family will sleep peacefully. Such advantages are provided by an inverter compressor with smooth power control depending on the current temperature conditions. The manufacturer's warranty on the motor is 10 years. The refrigerator and freezer compartments operate on the No Frost principle, excluding a decrease in efficiency and planned defrosting due to the appearance of frost and ice.

DoorCooling+ and Multi Air Flow technologies ensure an even distribution of air flows thanks to the ventilation hole system, so even when the doors are opened, the temperature change remains within 0.5 °C. The metal plate on the rear wall also contributes to rapid cooling.

The refrigerator compartment is equipped with separate zones. The FRESHConverter box ensures the preservation of food before cooking without the need for freezing under appropriate climatic conditions (-2 °C Meat / 0 °C Fish / 3 °C Vegetables), and the FRESHBalancer takes care of the optimal moisture content of fruits and vegetables. The mode is selected using switches.

Additionally, there is a niche for storing five bottles of wine, and a folding shelf quickly frees up space for large pots and dishes.

The built-in Wi-Fi module allows you to remotely control the device using the LG ThinQ application. The user quickly receives notifications about temperature changes, can activate emergency freezing, diagnose the system and switch to holiday mode for maximum savings. Products remain fresh for a long time thanks to quick freezing with a productivity of 14 kg/day, as well as maintaining the optimal temperature when the lights are turned off for 19 hours.

Gorenje NRC 6204 SXL5M is a truly innovative refrigerator that will meet the needs of a large family. The main feature is the ConvertActive mode, which turns the freezer into an additional refrigerator compartment. In this way, you can get 361 liters of useful volume for storing dishes, drinks, snacks in preparation for holidays and other events. Both chambers operate on the No Frost Plus principle and do not require maintenance or defrosting. A dry microclimate eliminates the appearance of frost and ice, reducing cooling efficiency. The heart of the device is an inverter motor with a low noise level and smooth power adjustment to maintain the required temperature depending on operating conditions. The AdapTech system analyzes the readings, reacts to door openings and adjusts the operation of the motor, compensating for possible temperature changes in the chambers. This way the food always remains fresh. The owner receives an energy-efficient refrigerator that consumes 2–3 times less electricity compared to conventional budget models.

Gorenje NRC 6204 SXL5M is equipped with several useful functional areas. The CrispZone compartment with SmartHumidity function is suitable for storing fruits and vegetables. The Convert ZeroZone drawer maintains zero temperatures, which is optimal for meat and seafood. A separate XtremeFreeze drawer in the freezer allows you to quickly prepare berries, fish and other products for long-term storage.

The MetalCool 360° ventilation system evenly distributes cold throughout the chambers and releases negative ions that kill germs and absorb odors. The taste of products does not change when stored together, even on the same shelf. For products with specific pungent odors, a sealed container in the door is provided.

The spacious Bosch KGE49EICP refrigerator provides economical electricity consumption (about 163 kWh/year and provides users with optimized internal space. The total volume is an impressive 419 liters, and the width is increased to 70 cm for the convenience of placing several large dishes on one shelf. Two independent VitaFresh shelves for fish/meat and vegetables/fruits they maintain an internal microclimate that is optimal for the respective products.

The Low Frost freezer is easy to maintain, but it is not a full-fledged No Frost, so periodic defrosting will still be required (as for the refrigerator compartment). In addition to two regular boxes, it contains a Big Box for large items, such as goose or turkey.

The Fresh Sense system, based on internal and external sensors, quickly responds to temperature changes and returns it to normal levels. Thanks to separate circuits, the process becomes more efficient. Quick freezing is available, although the volume of processed products is only 6.5 kg/day. Good thermal insulation ensures cold retention for a very long time in autonomous mode - 20 hours, which is undoubtedly a plus. The refrigerator does not have optimized ventilation to distribute air throughout all chambers, but thanks to the PowerVentilation system, the entire internal space is cooled quite quickly, which guarantees the safety of the contents.

The Whirlpool W9 931D BH refrigerator is equipped with functional zones and provides food storage for up to 15 days without freezing. The refrigerator compartment contains FreshBox 0°C boxes for meat, fish, seafood and Fresh Box+ with humidity control for vegetables and fruits. The folding Flexi shelf allows you to quickly free up space for placing tall dishes, for example, a multi-tiered birthday cake. An additional shelf with a bottle holder is convenient for storing wine and other drinks.

The freezer has two closed drawers and a quick access shelf with the Fast Freeze Pad function. It is able to quickly freeze food due to the metal plate at the bottom.

Whirlpool W9 931D BH provides effective temperature control and ease of maintenance. Thanks to complete No Frost, the user does not need to defrost and de-ice. The inverter motor constantly maintains the microclimate inside the chambers, ensuring a stable temperature and rapid cooling after opening the doors. It is characterized by low noise level and efficiency, so the refrigerator belongs to energy efficiency class A+++ and reduces energy costs by half.

6th Sense Precision Control technology reads temperature and humidity data using sensors and maintains them at optimal levels when changes occur. When new products are added, the Fast cooling system is activated, which quickly cools them for long-term storage. The freezer with the FreezeControl function guarantees gentle and fast freezing (13 kg/day).

The design eliminates cold loss, guaranteeing its safety for 16 hours after turning off the lights.

The Samsung Grand+ RB34C775CB1 refrigerator stands out for its interesting design in dark colors (graphite), optimized internal space and modern technological solutions for maximum efficiency. The Digital Inverter inverter motor maintains a constant temperature due to a smooth change in power, eliminating increased energy consumption for regular start-up of the compressor, and guarantees a minimum noise level (35 dB). The AI Energy intelligent system automatically analyzes user activity and adjusts the equipment to actual operating conditions. Thus the annual consumption is only 163 kWh. The manufacturer provides a 20-year warranty on the compressor.

The SpaceMax layout has made it possible to significantly increase the useful volume compared to previous generations of devices while maintaining the overall dimensions. The refrigerator compartment offers 4 shelves (one for bottles) and 2 functional drawers. The Optimal Fresh+ Zero freshness box is divided into 2 zones with the ability to independently adjust temperature and size for longer storage of meat, fish, vegetables and fruits without freezing. The Humidity Fresh+ compartment is designed to maintain the optimal level of moisture in vegetables and fruits for several weeks. The freezer offers 3 closed drawers. High efficiency of cooling and freezing is ensured by a metal plate on the back wall with a well-thought-out ventilation duct system for each shelf/drawer (All Around Cooling system). No Frost technology for both chambers eliminates the appearance of ice and frost on products and walls. Overall, the Samsung Grand+ RB34C775CB1 is efficient during standard use, but during a power outage, the normal temperature is maintained for only 9 hours.

For comfortable control, there is a touch display on the doors where you can quickly change all settings. The company also offers an app for mobile gadgets called SmartThings for remote control after connecting the refrigerator to your home Wi-Fi network. Open door indication and child locking will increase the level of safety.
