There are so many brands of refrigerators in the store that people are dazzled and even unable to start. So how can I buy a good refrigerator? There are many factors you need to consider, such as size, appearance, structure, quality, price, brand and so on.
Strong freezing ability
With the accelerated pace of modern life. People's consumption behavior has also changed, and centralized procurement has become a new trend. On the one hand, the sales of large-capacity refrigerators look good, and whether refrigerators have large freezing capacity has become a key issue that people must consider when purchasing refrigerators. Without strong refrigeration capacity, the refrigeration speed of the freezer is slow, and the largest freezer can only be a large storage room, which can only be stored in large quantities but cannot guarantee the quality of frozen food. At present, the freezing capacity of refrigerators in the domestic market varies greatly, ranging from about 25 square meters to 18 kg, and the best product reaches 22 kg. Consumers must read the product introduction carefully. After the fresh-keeping performance of refrigerator solved the problem of food and clothing, modern people began to pay attention to the quality of life. Ordinary storage cabinets and refrigerators can no longer meet the needs of consumers for food preservation and nutrition. What kind of refrigerator can keep fresh? This should start with the principle of food preservation. The spoilage of microorganisms and the decomposition of enzymes lead to food deterioration. Only by controlling the temperature in the box at a constant low temperature can the activities of microorganisms and enzymes be fully inhibited, so that the freshness and nutrients of food will not be lost. Judging from the three types of refrigerators in the market, such as computer temperature control, electronic temperature control and mechanical temperature control, the computer temperature control refrigerator can accurately measure the actual temperature in the cabinet and send the information to the control center. The whole process is fully computerized, which really ensures that the refrigerator always keeps a constant low temperature ring pit. A computer-controlled refrigerator can keep food fresh and nutritious.
Climatic refrigerator
The climate type of refrigerator is a sign to measure the ability of refrigerator to adapt to seasonal changes and regional differences, which is directly related to the refrigeration performance of refrigerator in four seasons. If the climate type of the selected refrigerator does not match the local climate conditions, consumers are likely to encounter the phenomenon of "cooling in winter and turning off in summer". Moreover, this kind of "fault" comes from design, which can not be solved by any after-the-fact maintenance. Here, consumers, especially those living in areas with changeable climate and distinct seasons, are advised to buy refrigerators with wide climate zones. In this way, whether it is hot summer or cold winter, there will be worries. At the same time, consumers are reminded that because "width" is a relative concept, some manufacturers have taken advantage of this ambiguity and introduced the so-called "wide climate design" refrigerator. When buying, be sure to check the nameplate on the back of the refrigerator. Only refrigerators marked with "SN-ST (sub-temperature-subtropical)" climate type are truly "wide climate design" refrigerators.
Low energy consumption, environmental protection and economy.
In addition to the one-time investment of several thousand yuan when purchasing the refrigerator, extra people will be invested in the process of using it for more than 10 years, mainly including electricity and maintenance fees. Consumers should fully consider these two aspects before buying. In particular, there is the possibility of rising electricity prices, and we can't just pay attention to the cheap price of refrigerators and ignore the high electricity bills in the future. Because of the different models and volumes of refrigerators, consumers often have no way to compare them. If you use the following formula to calculate and compare, you can simplify the complex and make a decision easily:
Power consumption per 100 liters of refrigerator = daily power consumption/net volume of refrigerator xl00 (the smaller the value, the more power will be saved).
Some manufacturers refer to the advanced energy consumption standards in Europe, assign energy consumption grades to their products, and put corresponding energy-saving labels on refrigerator doors, among which Grade A is the most energy-saving product. Consumers can use it as a reference when buying products.
At the same time, energy conservation and environmental protection are also closely linked. At present, our country mostly uses manpower to generate electricity, burning a lot of coal to generate electricity, which not only pollutes the atmosphere, but also accelerates the depletion of non-renewable resources. In order to protect the earth and our common home, you and I can start by choosing energy-saving products.
In addition, consumers may encounter some specific problems when buying refrigerators:
1. refrigerator volume: professionals suggest that the per capita volume is 60-70 liters, and it is ideal for a family of three to choose a refrigerator of about 200 liters. Of course, families with large population, good economic conditions and large housing area can choose large refrigerators accordingly.
2. Refrigeration mode of refrigerator: There are two refrigeration modes of refrigerator: direct cooling (with frost) and air cooling (without frost). Direct-cooled refrigerator has good fresh-keeping and moisture-retaining performance, and the price is relatively cheap, but it needs to be defrosted frequently, and it is most suitable for dry northern and inland areas in winter. Frost-free refrigerators have the advantages of automatic defrosting, relatively uniform temperature in the freezer, uniform distribution of cooling capacity and outstanding freezing effect, and are more suitable for coastal areas, Yangtze River coasts and southern areas with high air humidity. It is worth mentioning that there is a direct-cooling refrigerator with a fan in the cold room on the market now. This advanced dynamic refrigeration technology from Europe not only solves the problem of uneven temperature in the cold room of ordinary direct-cooling refrigerator, but also effectively ensures the humidity in the box, and gradually becomes the new favorite of consumption.
3. Brand selection: A brand reflects the comprehensive level of an enterprise and is usually a sign of product quality and reputation. This is why people pursue famous brands. In fact, from small products to large enterprises, it needs a process of continuous development and improvement. International companies with a long history and high reputation certainly have obvious advantages in this respect. Smart consumers choose refrigerators from the perspective of cost performance according to their own needs. They are neither superstitious about foreign goods nor blindly pursuing famous brands. In fact, most imported refrigerators under 300 liters are not produced locally in the importing country.
4. Structure of refrigerator: The trend of modern refrigerator is to develop into multi-temperature zone and multi-door. In addition to the usual freezing and cold storage area, there are ice temperature area, rapid cooling area and even temperature change area. These functions can not only improve the quality of food refrigeration, but also be convenient to use. Multi-door refrigerators not only make refrigerators more luxurious, but also make food refrigeration more scientific, reasonable and hygienic.
5. Refrigerator quality: Refrigerators are durable consumer goods, so choose refrigerators with reliable quality. At present, with the upgrading of the refrigerator industry in China, the difference in manufacturing quality of refrigerators of various brands has been very small. To measure the quality of refrigerator, we might as well consider it from two angles: technical level and raw material use. Refrigerator is a kind of household appliance with complicated manufacturing process. Its design level and production technology have a great influence on the quality of refrigerators, and the quality of refrigerators produced by manufacturers with high technical starting point is guaranteed. The choice of parts, especially the key parts, has a great influence on the service life of the refrigerator. High-quality refrigerators generally choose high-quality parts such as pure copper pipes and imported coated steel plates to ensure the service life of the refrigeration system and the rust-proof ability of the refrigerator.
6. After-sales service: Generally, refrigerators will have a certain repair rate, so it is very necessary to choose products with good after-sales service. At present, domestic refrigerator manufacturers have their own set of after-sales service standards. We might as well measure the after-sales service level of manufacturers from real factors such as maintenance cost, warranty period, maintenance speed, comprehensiveness and thoroughness of maintenance service. Don't blindly listen to high-sounding and innocuous rhetoric, such as how many "star-rated" service forms. Might as well ask people who have enjoyed the after-sales service of manufacturers what their real after-sales service level is. Generally speaking, under the same conditions, in terms of after-sales service, domestic goods are more assured than foreign goods, and domestic goods are more assured than foreign goods. May you buy a satisfactory refrigerator!
