I upgraded to this refrigerator coming from my old one that I had in my parents' house, a 30-year-old 70cm wide Pitsos with the freezer on top and not on the bottom like this one. I wanted the new refrigerator to be the same width, but there were also taller and more expensive models.
At 1.85m height, for some people, the last shelf will be inaccessible, at least not easily accessible.
In terms of width, it limits you if you want to put a large dish, but this only happens in rare cases, and you can find a solution.
Now, onto the refrigerator's features.
Negatives:
It doesn't have handles.
Unfortunately, most models don't have handles, some larger ones do. This specific one only has slots on the side along the entire length of the door, not very aesthetically pleasing, but not convenient either when you want to open the door. You have to turn your hand to grab the door from the side.
Refrigerator Space:
The organization is not that great. Initially, there is a huge drawer for vegetables/fruits. It's so big that it will never fill up, wasting space.
The drawer also takes up the bottom part of the door, resulting in the loss of a shelf that could have been used for bottles.
Out of the 3 available shelves on the door, only one can fit bottles or sauce bottles, while the others can only fit small items like jars, etc. An alternative is to remove one shelf to fit bottles.
During the summer, the bottom shelf is occupied by water bottles, so there isn't much space left.
The shelf provided for placing bottles horizontally essentially eliminates the bottom shelf, leaving very little space. And of course, if the bottles are not sealed, they are likely to leak.
So, the shelf was removed.
The lighting is quite good, but it would be better to have it in the back as well, as when the refrigerator is full, some light is lost.
Freezer Space:
For me, as one person, 3 drawers are excessive, while in the refrigerator, I have limited space, and this is standard in all refrigerators of this type.
The drawers are convenient, but having one shelf would be practical for ease of use. It's difficult to prevent the ice cubes from spilling.
In terms of equipment and quality, I expected more. The plastic parts don't seem very durable.
In terms of equipment, it's practically non-existent. Just an ice tray and egg holders, which are practically useless since it's safer to keep eggs in their original packaging.
Positives:
In terms of positives, I can only observe that it is a good new refrigerator, definitely more energy-efficient than the old one.
The control panel is aesthetically pleasing and useful for controlling the refrigerator without opening it.
It can lower temperatures down to -24 in the freezer, which is impressive. However, with the pre-set -18, it is standard for food preservation for a long period of time.
I definitely mention more negatives than positives, but they are mostly related to the organization and comparison between traditional refrigerators and refrigerator-freezers.
Although some things bother me, I prefer the drawers in the freezer over the chaos I had before.
Before buying a refrigerator, take a closer look, think about how you arrange things in your old one and what suits you better, and see the new one up close to determine if it serves you and if it's worth sacrificing some conveniences.
