Top 10 refrigerators in 2020

Workhorse for standard tasks.

This model of the South Korean manufacturer allows us to answer the question of which brand of refrigerators is one of the most reliable inexpensive devices. It has good technical equipment that meets modern selection criteria.

The main advantage of the refrigerator is that it is equipped with the No Frost Defrosting system, which allows the owner to never defrost it. Another plus is the precise temperature setting in the chambers thanks to electronic control.

It is also worth saying that the refrigerator has a modern design and a convenient location with cameras and shelves. And the price, of course, will please any buyer.

First of all, it must be said that the refrigerator has a good capacity of 300 liters. This device is ideal for families of 3 or more people. In addition, this model saves energy during operation, as evidenced by the A + marking.

Another advantage of this device is the modern No Frost defrosting system. As a result, all these characteristics determine the high popularity of this model in the home appliance market.

As for the climate class, such an apparatus belongs to the mixed type and can operate in the temperature range from 10 to 43 ° C. It is also worth mentioning that this model is equipped with an antibacterial coating, which prevents the formation of mold and blocks unpleasant odors.

- The protruding grille on the rear wall

Cheap but cheerful.

This Belarusian refrigerator has a high-tech filling, but is quite reliable. Temperature conditions are observed using electromechanical control. However, defrosting the freezer compartment is done manually, which is not very convenient.

But due to its spaciousness and budget cost, the device fell into our list. The volume of refrigerators in this series is 384 liters, which is 1.5 times higher than that of competing brands. And his freezer is able to freeze up to 15 kg of food per day. Thus, this device is strong and capacious.

I would like to say about additional functions: the LG GA-B489 YEQZ refrigerator has child protection, a “vacation” mode and a modern defrosting system. The device is classified as dual-chamber and has a low power consumption ratio (A ++). The service life of this model is more than 10 years. The volume of the unit’s internal chambers is able to satisfy the needs of a family of 4-5 people (335 liters).

This model also includes the modern No Frost defrost system. Among the additional functions of this device, it is worth noting the display with a temperature indicator, as well as its control.

+ Energy Efficiency Class

- Not very comfortable defrosting

Reasonable price, justified by reliability.

XM 4307-000 includes not only the main unit, but also the freezer, which is located below. In this case, the tank is defrosted manually. The two-chamber refrigerator is mechanically controlled. The total amount of internal space is 248 liters. Thus, this device is ideal for a small family (no more than 2-3 people).

The service life of this machine is about 10 years when used correctly, which also contributes to a high position in our ranking of the best built-in refrigerators.

It is also worth noting that the ATLANT XM 4307-000 is presentably different in design from the competition and is made of high-quality polymer material.

- No automatic defrost

For a very large family.

The main thing you need to know is that the refrigerator of this series of the South Korean manufacturer has a volume of 538 liters.

Devices in this series are thawed using modern No Frost technology. Another advantage of the refrigerator is its low power consumption (class A +).

Among the shortcomings, it is worth noting that users reported insufficient freezing power, which is 12 kg / day. Otherwise, Samsung’s two-door refrigerator is one of the best units in this class.

Structural Classification

Refrigeration units are produced by many well-known companies that try to distinguish their products from other options. This led to the emergence of many products that can conditionally be divided into several types:

  1. European refrigerators. Systems of this type differ in small width, but at the same time their height can be more than 2 m.
  2. American type of devices differs in considerable width, which can exceed 1 m. Often in such devices the freezer is located below and is divided into several separate compartments.
  3. Asian type refrigerators - These are medium sized designs. A distinctive feature of such models is the upper location of the freezer.

General characteristics of wide models

Refrigerators of this type are perfect for large kitchens, as they take up a lot of space. Today designs like "Side-by-Side." Similar designs have several distinguishing features:

  1. The height of the refrigerator varies from 1.7 to 1.9 m - depending on version. The width is significantly different from the characteristics of standard models. This parameter varies in the range of 0.9-1.2 m.
  2. The freezer in such units is divided into several compartments and can be used both for freezing and cooling food.
  3. All wide refrigerator models include several standard features. The most popular of them are the No Frost system, freshness zone, ice maker and others.

The dimensions of these devices are significant, but at the same time they are quite economical. Many of them belong to energy classes not lower than A.

To understand what the "no frost" system is all about, we recommend watching the following video.

Innovations

Manufacturers of wide refrigerators have focused on improving these models. Every year, these systems are supplemented by modern functionality that allows not only to store food in high quality, but also to completely control this process.

It should be noted several new products found in these systems:

  1. Turbo-X Cooling (Daewoo FRS-U20HES). Using this technology, the cooling rate is increased by 1.3 times. It involves the use of powerful air currents that evenly distribute the temperature inside the chambers.
  2. Minibar ("Beko GNE V422X"). It is present in many wide models. Such designs allow you to get drinks without opening the main door.
  3. Backlight freezer. Now the search for food or chilled water becomes more convenient and easier.
  4. Electronic control. This may include the presence of touch screens and a special remote control that allows you to adjust the characteristics at a distance.

German quality

Refrigerators of manufacturers from Germany deservedly occupy one of the leading places in the market. Especially should be highlighted the most popular options:

  1. Bosch "NoFrost KGN49SM22R". The width of the structure is 70 cm, and the depth reaches only 65 cm. The total volume of the chambers is 399 l, among which the freezer occupies only 92 l. Both cameras are defrosted using the No Frost system. Convenient functions - modes of super-freezing, super-cooling and vacation.
  2. Liebherr "CN 5113-21". The width of the unit reaches 75 cm at a height of 202 cm. The freezer takes 115 liters, while the refrigerator compartment has a volume of 338 liters. As a defrosting mechanism - drip (refrigerator) and “No Frost” (freezer) systems. The design provides for outweighed doors, it is distinguished by a heated circuit. Among the positive functions, superfrost can be distinguished.

Perfection in black

Among the models of wide refrigerators with a lower freezer, a qualitative model should be highlighted Hitachi "R-WB 552 PU2 ​​GBK". The device has unique characteristics:

  1. The volume of the chambers is 510 liters, among which 429 liters can be used.
  2. The refrigerator is equipped with a special “Dual Fan Cooling” cooling system and an eco-temperature sensor.
  3. The system includes several cooling, freezing and energy saving modes. A special Nano-Titanium filter is supplied. The refrigerator doors are covered with a special tempered glass to prevent scratches and damage.

Wide refrigerators are versatile devices that are great for large families. With their help, you can optimize the procurement of products, devote more time to other matters.

My rating of models with a width of 70 cm

  1. BEKO RCNE 520E20 ZGB.
  2. BEKO RCNE 520E21 ZX.
  3. BEKO RCNE 520E20 ZGW.
  4. LG GC-M502 HEHL.
  5. LG GC-M432 HQHL.
  6. Hotpoint-Ariston E4D AA SB C.

BEKO is the largest conglomerate in Turkey. Its activity is not only the production of household appliances, but also affects the automotive and energy sectors, as well as the financial sector.

All BEKO refrigerators, depending on the number of chambers, can conditionally be divided into:

  • Single chamber. Refrigerators have one leaf, which opens access for the freezer and refrigerator. As a rule, they have the most compact parameters.
  • Two-chamber. The most popular choice of refrigerators that have two separate doors. They feature a more spacious freezer, as well as the ability to preserve the atmosphere in each of the departments.
  • Side-by-side models. They are considered the most overall, therefore they are not suitable for a small kitchen space. They are distinguished by cameras in the full growth of the unit and the shutters that swing open outward.

How to choose?

Before deciding on a specific model of BEKO refrigerator, you need to pay attention to some nuances:

  1. Dimensions and usable volume of the refrigerator. If the first indicator must be calculated based on the free area of ​​the kitchen, then the second is determined by the size of the family and its needs.
  2. The number of trays and shelves. At first glance, an insignificant criterion can significantly affect the quality of food storage.
  3. Freezing / defrosting system. For the refrigerator compartment, it can be drip type or NoFrost, for the freezer compartment - manual or NoFrost.
  4. By the type of location of the freezer compartment (top, bottom, Side-by-Side).
  5. Additional functions (custom zone, ice maker, quick defrost function).

Advantages and disadvantages

The advantages of BEKO refrigerators are:

  • High build quality,
  • The best combination of price and quality,
  • Possibility of changing the door mounting side,
  • Wide range of products,
  • Modern design.

The disadvantages include vegetable boxes that are inconvenient in some models.
