There is no need to explain that in modern conditions, living without a refrigerator is practically impossible. Even those who, as they say, try “not to make a cult out of food,” cannot do without technology that can preserve food without losing its quality. What can we say about large families or those who have chosen to live away from the bustle of the city and convenience stores. Or maybe you just don’t like wasting your free time going to the store and prefer to buy provisions once every one or two weeks? In any of these cases, buying a large refrigerator becomes not a whim, but a necessity, which will significantly facilitate the domestic side of everyday life.

If you have decided to purchase a large home refrigerator, first of all evaluate the size of the room in which you plan to place the equipment. Will the technology interfere with your presence in the room? Does it have enough free space for installation?

To make it easier for you to navigate the calculations, we suggest getting acquainted with some of the nuances of choosing a large refrigerator. Today, three types of refrigerated cabinets are considered the most spacious and multifunctional:

1. Side-by-Side refrigerators are two-door hinged designs in which the chambers are located side by side, and not above each other, as we are used to. Such refrigerators have an impressive volume and a full-size freezer, allowing you to store a large stock of food.
2. French Door refrigerators (French door) are equipped with two hinged doors to the refrigerator compartment and a pull-out or horizontal freezer located below. Such devices are less bulky than the previous version, but are also spacious due to the increased internal space.
3. Classic models of two-chamber refrigerators with regular side doors are rarely very spacious. Larger sizes are more common in the line of built-in appliances. These are quite expensive products, the cost of which can be several times higher than a free-standing structure with similar parameters.

• equipment dimensions;
• volume (including the ratio of total to useful);
• type of cooling system (number of compressors) and defrosting;
• energy consumption (nominal energy consumption);
• design;
• availability of additional options;
• expert opinions and reviews from real customers.

When choosing a refrigerator, everyone wants it to last a long time, not break down, operate silently, and at the same time have a low cost. These can be said to be the main criteria by which the search for a suitable model is made. In addition, it is important that the purchased unit matches the color of the interior, is economical and comfortable to use. If you can find a model that satisfies these requirements, then you have done a really good job of analyzing parameters and the best models. In this article we will tell you how to choose a refrigerator for your home and which brand is durable in 2017. At the end of the article, a rating of the best refrigerators by price, quality and manufacturer will be provided, so we strongly recommend reading to the end.

Main settings

First, let's briefly look at the most important criteria for choosing a refrigerator for your home. So, the first thing you should decide before purchasing is:

1. Equipment dimensions. There are one-, two-, three-, four-, five- and even six-chamber models. As a rule, each manufacturer has its own dimensions of its products, but they are all close to the standards and can differ from each other by no more than 5-10 cm. To choose the correct size of the refrigerator, you must first decide where it will be installed, then measure this place with a tape measure and, based on the measurements obtained, select the appropriate option in terms of height, width and depth. The most popular are two-chamber units; they have similar freezer and refrigerator compartments. They are followed by Side-by-Side, single-chamber, and then multi-chamber.
2. Camera location. Everyone is accustomed to having a freezer at the bottom, but there are models with a top freezer. There are ones without it at all, so when choosing, pay attention to this point. We also advise you to take into account the ratio of the chambers; it happens that the freezer compartment is almost the same as the refrigerator compartment. This is very convenient for those who want to choose a device with a large freezer.
   
3. Useful volume. To choose the capacity of the refrigerator you need to know one simple thing - for two people a device of 180 liters will be enough. For a family of 3 people, you can buy a 250-liter model, and if you have a large family (for 5-6 people), we recommend choosing equipment with a useful volume of 350 liters or more. Don’t forget about the dimensions; the volume of the camera directly affects the size of the case.
   
4. Type of defrosting and freezing. We will not go into details, but will only highlight the most important information for you. Freezing can be thermoelectric (silent), absorption (noisier) and using compressors (highest noise level). In turn, defrosting can be manual (as before, unplug the equipment, wait until the chambers are defrosted, then wash the walls and wipe them dry), drip (moisture flows into the pan along the back wall) and No Frost (no frost) - auto defrosting . Most often, all clients find it difficult to decide which refrigerator is better to choose for their home - with drip defrosting or no frost. If you do not defrost the device often, we recommend choosing a more modern and reliable No Frost system. In turn, the drip system belongs to the economy class, so the equipment will cost less.
   
5. Climate class. The choice depends on the operating conditions of the unit, as well as the temperature in the region in which you are located. The most popular climate classes are presented in the table below. You need to select the appropriate temperature range for your own conditions.
   
6. Energy class. If you want to choose an economical refrigerator for your home, pay attention to its energy consumption class. The lowest class (i.e. economy) is A+++ in 2017. Further along the alphabet and number of pluses are units with higher energy consumption (A++, A+, A, B, etc.).
   
7. Functions. You must understand that the more multifunctional refrigerator you want to choose, the more you will have to pay. We recommend choosing the least sophisticated device for your dacha. But for an apartment or house, you can already invest in a model that, in addition to standard functions (for example, temperature settings), has an open door indicator, super freezing, ice maker, long-term storage of food, rapid cooling and freezing of food, antibacterial protection, etc.
   
8. Compressor type. In 2017, it is better to choose a refrigerator with an inverter compressor, because... it is more economical, silent and also durable. The only thing is that the inverter is afraid, so you will need to additionally protect the equipment.
   
9. Number of compressors. Inexpensive refrigerators have one compressor, higher quality models have 2 compressors, which are better because they are cheaper to repair, more economical, and also allow you to turn off one chamber (for washing or something else), while the second one will work.
   
10. Control method. Electromechanical control is more reliable and also cheaper. Electronic allows you to more accurately adjust the temperature regime, therefore it is better in terms of comfort in using the equipment. Most modern models are equipped with electronic control.
11. Noise level. One of the most important parameters, because Almost everyone wants to choose a silent refrigerator and at the same time, it should be inexpensive but of high quality. In this regard, our recommendation as experts is to choose equipment with a noise level below 40 dB. With this indicator, the device will operate in quiet mode.

Expert advice

This is all advice regarding the correct selection of technical characteristics of refrigerators. Below we will look at the little things that you should pay attention to before purchasing.

What else should you pay attention to?

So, to choose a really good unit for your home, we recommend taking into account the following nuances:

1. The shelves must be glass. Transparent glass will allow you to quickly find the right products in the refrigerator compartment.
2. The seals around the perimeter of the door should be elastic and fit well when closing. Before choosing the option you like, make sure there is no damage, otherwise you will encounter a problem such as.
3. Your new refrigerator and freezer shouldn't smell like cheap plastic. An unpleasant odor indicates low quality plastic, and therefore the dubious reliability of the manufacturer.
4. Handles recessed into the door allow you to save some free space. This is especially true if you want a small kitchen.
5. Many models, especially from Liebherr, have the ability to hang the doors on the other side. Very convenient, especially when rearranging the house.
6. Make sure the legs are on wheels (must have at least 2). This design option will make it more convenient to transport equipment from place to place by simply tilting the body.
7. Built-in models are well suited if you do not want to spoil the interior of the kitchen.
8. There are many color options for refrigerators. You can always choose a suitable design to match the tone of the kitchen. In addition, there are designer models that will become the highlight of the interior.

Important Details

That's all I wanted to tell you about how to choose a refrigerator and which brand is durable in 2017. We hope you found the expert advice and videos provided helpful!

A refrigerator is a very expensive household appliance, so they buy it for several years, and sometimes for decades. When choosing a refrigerator, you should approach it very responsibly and thoughtfully, consider various parameters and performance qualities of the equipment so that it lasts as long as possible and is convenient to use.

What parameters do you pay attention to when buying a refrigerator?

There are quite a lot of criteria associated with choosing a refrigerator, all of them must be taken into account, but there are factors that cannot be avoided without taking them into account:

• Overall dimensions of the equipment: on sale you can find models with the number of cameras from one to six. First you need to think about where exactly the refrigerator will be located, measure the area allocated for it, and then start choosing sizes. The most popular models among users are dual-chamber devices;
• The location of the chambers relative to each other - standardly the freezer is located at the bottom, but there are models that do not have a freezer at all. The volume of the freezer can be different - larger, smaller or equal to the refrigerator compartment;
• Capacity is selected depending on the number of people living in the apartment. For example, for a family of two people, a design with a volume of up to 180 liters will be quite sufficient, but if there are more people, then the refrigerator should be as spacious as possible;
• Freezing-thawing technology. There are several similar methods - they work approximately the same, but with different noise levels. In addition, such technologies differ from each other due to the need for defrosting;
• The climate class directly depends on the conditions in which the equipment will be used;
• The class of electricity consumption affects the efficiency of the device;
• The presence of various additional functions - door open indicator, ice maker, quick freezing, antibacterial protection. Any additional feature will increase the cost of the equipment;
• A type of compressor - modern models are equipped with inverter devices, which are quieter and last much longer. Their main disadvantage is the fear of power surges, so the home network will need to be protected from them by installing a stabilizer;
• The control method can be completely electronic, mechanical or electromechanical. Each of them has its own positive and negative qualities;
• Noise – modern models emit almost no extraneous sounds.

When compiling our rating of the best home refrigerators, we not only took into account all these points, but also additionally researched user reviews to understand which models they prefer. We hope that our rating will help you take a comprehensive look at the presented models and choose among them the most suitable one for you.

Large refrigerators are for large families and people who love to eat. The largest total volume of refrigerator chambers is 1163 liters, however, such models are most likely not for domestic needs. Below we have presented the best and largest household refrigerators - this rating is based on customer reviews.

1st place – Liebherr SBS 7212

A very expensive but excellent side-by-side refrigerator. There are 2 compressors and the total volume of the chambers is 651 liters. Of course, this model is for very large families. This unit costs $1480-1500. Of course, this price is high for a refrigerator, but in this case it is justified.

In terms of functions, the refrigerator is not bad: it also has an alarm, super-freezing and defrosting functions. Among its analogues, this refrigerator is the largest. With all this, it is really high quality. All the drawers in the freezer are perfectly arranged - they move perfectly. The ratio of freezer and refrigerator volumes is ideal. The thin stacks without any loss of cold are very pleasant.

This is a worthy and expensive model, so we confidently recommend it. It also received first place in the TOP of refrigerators with spacious freezers (review by).

2nd place – Liebherr SBSesf 7212

And again a refrigerator from Liebherr, this time model SBSesf 72124.0. This device costs $2,000. This is a side-by-side model. And in general, almost all devices with a large volume of cameras will have this type. By the way, about the volume – 561 liters. We’ll leave out the functionality - it’s standard here and doesn’t interest us much.

It’s better to pay a lot of money once and forget about the possibility of refrigerator breakdowns - that’s what buyers say about this model. This is a reliable device with high build quality and quiet operation. The handles of the device do not have height adjustment, and their quality is questionable - buyers are responding, but this is a trifle. In any case, this is one of the best refrigerators with a large volume of internal chambers.

3rd place – Samsung RSG5FURS4.0

$1660-1670 is the approximate cost of this side-by-side refrigerator. The total volume of its chambers is 637 liters, which is EXACTLY for a large family!

This is a quiet and spacious refrigerator that consumes little energy. There is an ice maker and a cold water supply system. And in general this device is of high quality. Judging by the reviews, it has been working for 4-5 years without any complaints. This is a fairly old model, which allows us to judge its reliability.

4th place – Liebherr SBSes 7165

And again a refrigerator from Liebherr. This model is extremely expensive. Depending on the seller, the cost can range from $4,550 to $4,600. This is a two-compressor Side by Side refrigerator with three chambers: one refrigerator and two freezers. Of course, there is a wide range of functionality, including super freezing and defrosting using No Frost technology. The total volume of the chambers is 602 liters.

This model is completely German, so it is of high quality in terms of assembly and components. With all this, the device is functional and almost silent in operation. No wonder it costs so much.

5th place – Panasonic NR-F555TX-N8

An excellent refrigerator from the manufacturer Panasonic worth $2,300. Its chamber volume is 467 liters. This is less than the camera volume of previous models, but still a lot.

Despite the large capacity, the dimensions of this model are not very large. Judging by customer reviews, the device is of high quality and almost silent. However, there is also a drawback. The manufacturer claims energy consumption of around 380 kW per year. In fact, the annual consumption will be approximately 600 kW. Otherwise, buyers have no complaints, so we, for our part, can also recommend it.

We will list other large refrigerators in the following table:

This rating can in no way be considered objective. It is based on customer reviews, so it can display real nonsense, or it can actually show a real rating of the largest refrigerators. In any case, when choosing any household appliance, read the reviews.

Record holder volume

The largest household refrigerator in the world is the monumental giant Grand Froid Miele, whose record volume is 874 liters. Such a monster impressed even the gigantomania-prone American market. The system distributes cooled air in such a way as to ensure uniform temperature in all parts of the refrigerator compartment. Products that are placed in the refrigerator are cooled instantly, as a result of which their optimal level of humidity is maintained. This contributes to a long shelf life while maintaining all the taste.

Unit zoning

The middle part of the refrigerator is the “fresh zone”, which is intended for perishable products - in this case it is the BioFresh zone with a volume of 100 liters, in which the best temperature for storing such products is maintained - not lower than 0.5 ° C and not higher than 3 ° C.

The freezer compartment also has a record size, its volume is 241 liters and can freeze up to 15 kg of food per hour, while no ice forms in the unit, and, therefore, time is not wasted on long-term defrosting. With such a large volume, it is quite possible to rent out part of the freezer.

Also, this refrigerator is classified as highly economical, which is really very important with such a volume. It is firmly packaged in a durable steel casing.
