How to Choose a 50/50 Fridge Freezer A freezer refrigerator 50/50 is divided into two compartments of equal size for storing chilled and frozen food items. Freestanding fridge freezers are available in a range of sizes that will suit the needs of any family member and come with a choice of colours so you can make it a part of your kitchen. You can also pick a taller integrated model that fits into a housing unit that is fronted by modern doors. These are usually hinged to the left or right based on your kitchen layout. Capacity One of the most important things to consider when buying a fridge freezer is its capacity. This is measured in litres and is useful when comparing models. At AO, we convert this to bags of shopping, making it easier to compare fridge-freezer sizes. Assess your family's needs to find the ideal capacity for you. A 50:50 fridge freezer comes with the same freezer and fridge space, which is ideal for households that prefer to store fresh foods. The appliances offer plenty of shelf space and come with doors and shelves that can be adjusted, as well as a salad crisper that keeps your veggies and fruits fresher longer. The fridge section also comes with an elegant wine rack made of chrome wire that makes it easy to store your favorite bottles. Alternatively, consider a 60:40 fridge freezer if you prefer to stock up on frozen food. These freezers are ideal for busy families who frequently purchase bulk quantities of frozen food items and prefer to keep their fridge space free for yoghurt, milk and freshly cut fruit. They offer more freezer space than the 50:50 models, with ample drawers and a clear front design to make it easy to find. A fridge freezer with integrated features is built to your kitchen, therefore it's important to measure the available space prior to making a purchase. It is important to ensure that it fits comfortably inside the cabinet doors and doesn't interfere with any other appliances in the area. It may also be necessary to leave a little space around your appliance to allow ventilation. The Integrated Fridge Freezer from Candy is an elegant and practical option for your home. The compact appliance offers an impressive storage capacity of 87 litres in the fridge compartment, with four shelves, two door racks and salad crisper that can accommodate all your favourite groceries. The EcoAirflow technology and LED lights with low-wattage help to regulate the temperature and humidity. Party Mode activates the Super Cool feature to chill drinks, and it also makes extra Ice. Energy efficiency The freezers in your fridge consume a lot of energy, which is why you should pick models that have high energy efficiency ratings. A higher energy rating on your appliance could lower your electric bill and also help reduce carbon emissions. These refrigerators may cost more initially but the savings they bring on your energy bills will pay for them over time. The energy efficiency of the fridge-freezer depends on its energy consumption as well as how much heat it produces. To find out how efficient a model is, look for an energy label with a general rating ranging from A to G. Examine the icons on the label to find out what the compartments for frozen and chilled are rated. Refrigerators with an A+++ rating are the most energy efficient. They use less than 150 kWh annually which is considerably lower than the UK average 185 kWh. A+++ model uses less gas compared to other freezers and fridges, making them safer for the environment. You can also make use of EPREL which is a database of EU appliances to assess the efficiency of these appliances. To do this, place your smartphone in the vicinity of the QR code on the energy label. You will be directed to a product page within the database, which provides complete information about the fridge's energy consumption and emissions. Other important factors to consider include whether a model is frost-free, and how easy it is to clean. Fridge-freezers that have an option to avoid frost don't need defrosting. This will save you time and effort in getting rid of and cleaning off the ice. It's also an excellent idea to select an appliance that has a deep freeze function, which can keep frozen food fresher for longer. Fridge-freezers with smart technology features can track how much food is in your fridge and notify you when you're low. Some refrigerators are equipped with cameras that let you see what's inside without opening the door. These are great to keep the track of leftovers and shopping. There are also appliances with innovative features, like LG's NatureFresh technology, which keeps cool air circulating to prevent food from spoiling. Design When choosing a model, the design is crucial as it can impact how easily you can store and access food items. Some models come with features that help keep food fresher longer and reduce waste, such as humidity controls or LED lights. There's also a salad drawer or CrispZone that can be adjusted to accommodate different types of produce. This is particularly useful if you plan to use your refrigerator-freezer's integrated feature in a garage or an outbuilding where the temperature could be lower than a kitchen. The layout of the fridge and freezer compartments will also differ according to model, with some fridge-freezers allowing you to choose between 50/50 splits or 70/30 options in which the freezer is bigger than the fridge. You'll also find fridge-freezers that have doors that can be reversible so you can fit them in any position your kitchen allows. This is particularly useful in kitchens where space is limited. For instance, this frost-free fridge freezer from Beko comes with a huge 185 litre capacity which is enough for around 14 bags of grocery and features reversible glass shelves that you can move upwards or downwards depending on the type of container you own. It also comes with an integrated salad drawer that is designed to hold humidity so your fruit and veg stays fresher for a longer time. You can adjust the door tray so it can fit taller containers and bottles. Another excellent aspect of this fridge freezer is that it features a NoFrost technology, which means you don't have to manually defrost it, which saves your time and energy. It also comes with a Super Cool function to quickly chill freshly added foods and drinks. It is a smart refrigerator-freezer with a variety of styles to complement the decor of your kitchen. It comes with a variety of storage compartments, including a VitaFresh drawer for fruit and vegetables as well as a BigBox in the freezer, and an EasyAccess shelf. Stores When you are choosing a fridge freezer, the capacity of storage is a major consideration. It is important to make sure that it is big enough to hold everything you eat and beverages. The interior space may differ greatly between models and it's a good idea to compare specifications closely. Some models may have more shelves, drawers or doors than others. Consider the flexibility of the storage, since some can be rearranged to accommodate different sizes of bottles and containers. This Hisense model has a 236L gross storage capacity despite its tiny size. Frydge is spread over four glass shelves as well as two door racks and a crisper in the fridge compartment. The shelves are adjustable, allowing you to fit tall items like milk bottles easily. This refrigerator freezer is equipped with Total No-Frost technology, a useful feature that eliminates the necessity of an ice scraper and helps to reduce energy and time. There's even a slide-out shelf on the top of the freezer, perfect to store ice cube tray storage. If you entertain a lot, there's also the option to turn on Party Mode which rapidly chills drinks and makes extra ice. The fridge has an ice-cream drawer that holds moisture to keep fruit and vegetables fresher for longer. Holiday Mode is perfect for families on the go. It helps keep energy costs low and odours at bay when you're away. This sleek fridge-freezer looks stunning in any kitchen. You can choose from a range of colors and finishes to match your decor. Chrome and stainless steel models are contemporary, whereas classic white refrigerators provide an affordable option. Many of these models come with either a one or two-year manufacturer's guarantee that gives you assurance in the event of any problems. There's a range of features, such as air quality sensors and LED lighting that you can pick from. However, some of these features increase the overall price which is why it's worth weighing your budget and personal preferences prior to deciding to make the purchase.
