Beko refrigerator
Modern life dictates its own rules, and we accept them, acquiring new and new habits. Someone can not imagine their life without a comfortable car, someone can not take a single step without a mobile phone. But there is something that all people need. This home appliances. Few people remember that cleaning a room without a vacuum cleaner, or a kitchen without a gas or electric stove, and, of course, food storage without a refrigerator.
The foods we eat have a direct effect on our body. The fresher the food, the more vitamins and nutrients it contains, which means we feel great. But if the refrigerator does not cope with the obligation to preserve the freshness of the products, then you should not risk and eat suspicious freshness food. In order not to throw away spoiled, and not to spend extra money on a constant visit to the store for new and new products, it is important to choose the right refrigeration unit.
To date, represented by so many different models of refrigerators that the eyes diverge. Manufacturers have stepped far forward and offer an assortment to the most demanding taste. Any color, size, and run-up prices from minimum to maximum - all this can be found in any hardware store. Today we turn our attention to the model range of the company Beko.
Features and benefits
The Beko company began its activities thanks to the engineer Wehbi Kochi in 1955. True, he was more interested in the production of materials for construction, but he had to quickly abandon this idea. The production of pasta and canned food, too, did not bring success either to him or to the company. And then it was decided to start producing light bulbs. This decision was wrong and the company began to climb up.
Beko was originally part of the Koç Holding Durable Goods Group. The country in which the headquarters of the organization is located is known to everyone - this is Turkey. Initially, the company produced a wide variety of electrical appliances, and in 1959 the first refrigerator was created. By 1977, the company's refrigerators conquered the domestic market of the country, and it was decided to create a separate plant for the production of these appliances.
After a short period of time, by 1990, the corporation entered the international market. It was then that Beko became part of a large company Arçelik A.S. Currently, the company produces the entire range of household appliances, widely known not only in Europe, but also in more than 100 countries.
As for Russia, the first Beko products appeared here in 1997. After 2 years, an official representative office opens, and at the end of 2006 the first plant in the Vladimir region is launched.
Today, the manufacturer produces all new models of refrigerators that meet the needs of people. The company's engineers seek to create devices that will satisfy the most demanding and demanding taste.
The manufacturer has earned its fame thanks to the convenience of manufactured devices and their very compact size. For the most part, they all have a fairly roomy freezer at the top. Specialists took care of creating an anti-bacterial camera coating and using P600a as a coolant. Convenient and simple control does not cause problems.
The refrigerating chamber is designed for a large volume of products, shelves and drawers are provided in it for easy storage.
The company takes into account the influence of modern trends.For example, the emergence of the system "No frost"was taken into account, and after a while it was applied in almost all units.
The noise level of the device is slightly higher than that of other manufacturers, but this does not negatively affect its operation.. Another feature of Beko refrigerators is that the manufacturer is still did not foresee the possibility of hanging the device’s doors to the other side in all manufactured models. However, taking into account the development trends of the company, it can be assumed that in the near future these problems will be eliminated.
Specifications
Technical characteristics of the device largely determine its choice. Therefore, they should pay special attention when choosing. For the convenience of consumers, they are all listed in the technical data sheet of the device.
Undoubtedly, everyone wants to get the most modern device, which has absolutely all the functions. But not all of them you will use. So, what should I pay attention to:
- Spaciousness of products. For different people, this figure may vary. For example, if you are used to making large stocks of vegetables, berries and meat for the winter and not only, then you need a unit with a large freezer.
It should also be remembered that for a large family the volume of products will be many times more than for one person.
- Dimensions. Before going to the store and buying the device, pay attention to the place where it will stand. Otherwise, it may simply not pass into your house. And here you need to know not only the dimensions of the doorways, but also the area where it will be located: whether there is enough space to pass, whether the doors open freely, whether the electrical outlet is close.
- Number of cameras. Decide if you need a freezer. If you need it, it is better to choose a two-chamber refrigerator. If you do not tolerate freezing and prefer only fresh food, then you need a single-chamber refrigeration appliance. Also, you do not need a freezer, if you already have a separate freezer cabinet.
- Energy efficiency class. This is perhaps one of the most basic selection criteria. In total, there are 7 energy efficiency classes: A - the most economical, G - the most consuming. This is the number in kW, it shows how much energy the device uses during operation. The higher the class, the more economical the device.And this will significantly reduce the cost of paying for electricity. In addition to class A, there are currently subclasses A + and A ++, which are even more economical.
- Design. When choosing a refrigerator, its external and internal appearance plays an important role. Every customer wants the device to fit harmoniously into the interior. As for the internal design, attention should be paid to the presence of shelves, drawers, their material and location. The shelves should be made of durable glass, they should be removed for washing without any problems and you should be able to rearrange them at your discretion.
The boxes should also be of high quality materials, be sufficiently spacious, conveniently located.
- Thawing. With the emergence of the system "No frost"this question has practically disappeared, since the very need for manual defrost has disappeared. But not all models have such a function. Therefore, if you don’t want to waste your time on manual defrosting, then make sure that this function is present in your chosen device. But you do not need to reset bills need to wash and clean the machine from time to time.
- Price. This is the last decisive factor on which the decision on the acquisition depends. The price takes into account the cost of each item. Therefore, if you know the list of basic functions that the device you need should possess, then pay attention to the lack of additional functions. These include: an unusual design, built-in TV or display, accessories included.
Knowing clearly what parameters the device should have for your comfort, you can make a choice that you will be satisfied with.
How to setup
The next step, after purchasing the refrigerator, is to install and configure it. With the installation, everything is more or less clear: clean the device from foreign objects, rinse it inside, adjust the height of the legs and plug it into the network. But when setting up the device, you may encounter some issues and difficulties that may prevent the correct functioning of the device. To avoid this, you should take some time to study the instructions and configure the device.
After switching to the network, the device will start working. This is evidenced by the inclusion of a light bulb inside the refrigerator, the hum of a compressor.So, after a few hours you can put the products. But there is also a nuance that directly affect the operation of the device, this temperature regime chambers.
When first turned on, as a rule, the average temperature mode is automatically set. It must be adjusted according to your requests.
The temperature in the refrigerator should be selected in such a way as to preserve the freshness of the products and the dishes prepared from them.. The optimal range for this is the interval from 0 to +5. At temperatures below zero, the food will freeze.that will not particularly please you when you want to cook something.
At temperatures above +5, your products will quickly deteriorate. Therefore, set the desired using the temperature controller.
The freezer should quickly turn food into a “stone”, but at the same time there should not be a crust of ice in the chamber, otherwise there will be a frostbite. The most optimal temperature is -18, since with this value the product quickly freezes, retaining its beneficial properties, and the power consumption will be minimal.
Thus, the duration of the freshness of your reserves, the economy of energy consumption and the service life depend on the correct installation of the device and its settings.
From time to time it is necessary to check the temperature balance and, if necessary, to regulate it.
The lineup
The Beko brand has long won its niche in the production of household appliances, in particular, refrigeration units. Modern technologies have made great strides forward, and the variety of manufactured equipment cannot go unnoticed. A wide range of models allows you to choose a technique that will harmoniously fit into your life. So, let's get acquainted with the most prominent representatives of Beko refrigerators.
Let's start with a review of models Side-by-side. This is a two-door device with a fairly large size. One door hides the refrigerator compartment, the other - the freezer. The device provides filters and air ionizer, which destroy microbes and microorganisms, due to the action of which food spoils. But despite the fairly large size, the energy class corresponds to A, A +, which is very economical. Thanks to the "No frost", which is present in both chambers, you need not worry about defrosting, because ice does not form in the chambers. Products are protected from damage if there is an unexpected power outage, because the high quality of materials allows you to keep the temperature for 21 hours after turning off the power. In addition, the manufacturer has provided the possibility energy savings, thanks to the mode of "vacation." The design is concise, modern. Colors: white and silver.
For small families or for the country house is perfect single-chamber refrigerator.
It has a small size, but despite this it contains a sufficient amount of products.. The freezer compartment is located in the upper part and the “No Frost” system is not installed. This means that you will have to manually defrost. The refrigerating chamber is equipped with shelves which can be put on the discretion. Energy class meets type A, A +, which saves costs. A nice extra feature was the ability to re-hang the door on the other side. The appearance of the device is classically strict, and the color is white.
As noted above, in almost all models the freezer is at the top. But there is a series CN, where the freezer is located at the bottom. Devices in this series have an energy efficiency class of A + and can maintain an operating temperature of 17 hours after a power outage. Both cameras are equipped with a "No frost", the cooling systems are independent of each other, which does not allow odors to penetrate from the compartment into the compartment. The shelves are made of glass and can be adjusted in height. The colors are slightly more varied: white, silver, black.
If the kitchen space does not allow you to purchase a large device, then turn your attention to a narrow fridge.
Its width will be no more than 55 cm. The manufacturer has created several narrow series, which differ in the number of chambers (two or one), defrosting system (manual or No Frost). But there are common features, in addition to dimensions. This is a single-circuit cooling system, quiet operation, a large amount of accommodated products, white design, high-quality materials and a high energy efficiency class A (A +). In some models, it is possible to change the direction of opening the door.
I would also like to mention the company the novelty "Beko" - the system "Active Blue Light". It is intended to increase the shelf life of vegetables and fruits. This is ensured by having a separate blue light source in the compartment.. It is due to this light that photosynthesis processes take place, thanks to which vitamins and useful trace elements are better preserved. This system is actively used in the newest models.
Components and accessories
The refrigeration device, regardless of size and series, can be supplemented with various accessories. Some of them may be in the basic configuration - ice cube maker and so on, and some can be purchased independently.
In almost all modern models, much attention is paid to the hygiene of the internal space.
Therefore, the presence of an antibacterial filter is no surprise. Thanks to him, all germs and odors are destroyed.
Retractable shelves of high quality glass allow you to organize the inner space to your taste. The presence of bumpers will avoid the spread of accidentally spilled liquid to other shelves.
The handle of the refrigerator door can be integrated, that is invisible to the eye, or external location. Their design may vary in size, shape and color.
Depending on the model, the package may include:
- folding containerthat allows you to store small foods or snacks;
- bottle holder - securely hold the bottle, not allowing them to roll or break;
- water dispenser and ice - allows you to get cold water and ice without opening the door of the refrigerator;
- swivel container - A special device that allows you to get any thing out of it, regardless of its location;
- retractable freezer container - the presence of such containers allows the most convenient and optimal use of the volume of the chamber, and it is very convenient to get them, fill and wash them.
- mini bar - a special compartment with a folding door for drinks.
