Total capacity

The total volume of a refrigerator is the sum of the volumes of all its compartments, which can vary in specific capacity between different models. It's important to consider this when choosing a refrigerator.

A larger volume for a refrigerator can be beneficial for accommodating more food, but it can also increase the price and size of the appliance. This is especially important to consider if you plan to build the refrigerator into a specific space.

Number of shelves

The amount of shelves in a refrigerator determines the division of space within the refrigeration compartment. Larger refrigeration compartments generally have more shelves, but there are also various configurations available even within the same volume (3 shelves, 4 shelves, 5 shelves and more). It is worth considering that they are mostly removable, which allows you to adjust the height of the shelf. And if necessary, you can buy more.

Fast cooling

Forced cooling mode is available in some refrigerators, and it significantly increases the cooling intensity of the refrigerator compartment. It's important to note that fast cooling needs to be turned on and off properly to avoid overloading the compressor. Some models have an automatic shut-off feature, but it's important to check for this feature separately.

LED lighting

The presence of a LED lighting system in the design of the refrigerator.

LEDs are currently the most advanced type of household lighting due to their high efficiency, providing bright light with low power consumption. They emit minimal heat, making them ideal for refrigerator lighting. Their compact size also allows for even distribution throughout the interior, illuminating all shelves, which is not the case with incandescent lamps that can only shine in one location, leaving some areas poorly lit.

Freezer capacity

The primary function of the freezer is to store food in a state of deep freeze, which helps preserve perishable products such as meat, vegetables, fruits, etc. for extended periods of time. The necessary volume of the freezer depends on the planned amount of food to be stored and the length of time it will be stored. A larger freezer is particularly useful if you plan to store food for several months. A compact freezer is relevant for short-term storage (for a day or two) or for seasonal devices (for example, in the village). It is best to ensure that the freezer is not overloaded and has enough space for proper circulation of air to maintain the desired temperature.

Number of freezer drawers

The quantity of freezer drawers in a refrigerator affects the optimal organization of frozen foods. A larger number of drawers allows for better separation of different types of frozen products. However, in the majority of standard two-compartment refrigerators, there are typically three freezer drawers.

Freezer temperature

The lowest temperature provided by a refrigerator freezer.

The lower the freezer temperature indicator, the more advanced the freezer is considered to be, and the better it is suited for long-term food storage with wider capabilities. It's important to note that the standard operating temperature for a fully functional freezer is -18 °C, which is suitable for both storing and freezing pre-frozen foods. Some refrigerators are designed with a temperature indicator of -24 °C, but this is mainly achieved through the quick freezing mode (see "Functions"), and the standard operating temperature is still -18 °C. However, if you plan to freeze food frequently and store it for extended periods, it's better to choose a model with a temperature of -24 °C and consider the freezing power as well.

Less expensive refrigerators have a less advanced freezer with a modest minimum temperature of -12°C or even -6°C, which is only suitable for storing pre-frozen foods, not for freezing fresh food. Although they are much more affordable.

To indicate the temperature of the freezer, markings in the form of asterisks (snowflakes) are often used, each of which means a decrease in temperature by 6 °C. For example, the mentioned -18 °C will correspond to 3 asterisks (***).

Fast freeze

The forced freezing mode briefly lowers the temperature inside the freezer to as low as -24 °C or -32 °C. This fast freezing function needs to be turned on in advance and has a limited operating time. Some models do not have automatic shutdown, so it's important to clarify these details. It's worth noting that drawers or quick-freeze zones are not considered as this function.

Energy class

The energy class that the refrigerator corresponds to.

Energy consumption classes were originally designated with Latin letters from A (the most efficient) to D (least efficient), but with technological advancements, more advanced classes such as "A+", "A++", etc. were introduced to indicate increasing levels of efficiency. The more pluses a device has, the more economical it is. This was necessary due to the correlation between energy consumption and decreasing efficiency.

For modern built-in refrigerators, the efficiency indicator at the level of class A can be called average, A+ — not bad, A++ — good, A+++ — excellent. Energy consumption rates B and C are rare and mostly found in outdated or cheaper models. Achieving high efficiency requires design innovations, which results in higher device prices. However, these prices can be justified by the resulting reduction in electricity bills. It's worth noting that some built-in refrigerator models are available in different energy consumption classes, allowing customers to choose the best option for their budget and energy efficiency needs.
