From larder fridges, fridges with freezer compartments, freezers, fridge freezers, and integrated refrigeration there are so many options when it comes to choosing the refrigerated appliances that meet your needs.
‘The most important things to look out for when buying a fridge freezer today are efficiency, capacity, and usability,’ comments Lyndsey Barrett, Electrical Channel Manager, KAL.
Certainly, energy efficiency continues to be top of your shopping list. ‘Energy efficiency continues to increase so you can save money on electrical bills to spend elsewhere, even with an appliance which is switched on 24 hours a day. Innovations include light sensor modes, which recognize whether there’s sufficient light in the room so internal lights won’t switch on unless necessary. There are eco modes available, too, which help with extra energy-saving and holiday modes keep the freezer at full power while the fridge runs at a lower level for maximum efficiency,’ comments Luke Shipway, Product Manager, Caple.
Laura Jones, Product Manager at Smeg UK also adds, ‘Consumers need to consider the space they have available and therefore the type of fridge they are looking for, but also their lifestyle and requirements. Do they need a higher freezer to fridge ratio in order to store food? Do they have many impromptu dinner parties needing more fridge space for the day? These are all essential considerations, which follow with the design the homeowner is trying to achieve.
