Samsung refrigerator

Samsung, called the Korean giant, is a popular electronics manufacturer and has a strong position in the home appliance market thanks to its reliable and affordable refrigerators. They come in a variety of colors and designs, whether basic mini-refrigerators, classic models with a bottom or top freezer, or designer “monsters” with a touchscreen display on the door, a suite of programs, and an Internet connection.

Brand Samsung produces many options for refrigerators. In addition to standard models One Door with Top Freezeryou can buy a fridge with the lower chamber and a separate dedicated box - the so-called "zone of freshness"; French Door style version or Side-by-Side model with multiple doors.

Absolutely new model offered by Samsung, this is a smart refrigerator. "Family Hub" with the support Wi-Fi and touch screen.

The cooling unit itself can be equipped with both a classic compressor and an inverter compressor, or a combination of both types of cooling — for example,in the freezer running dry freeze, and in the rest of the space - droplet type cooling.

The inner coating is often made using modern technology "Silver nano"and is antibacterial. In the newest models, a combination of fans and evaporators is used to create an optimal storage mode and maintain the required temperature and humidity throughout the entire internal space.

For all models, the manufacturer gives a warranty period of 3 years, however, such a model as RB32FERMDSA, Received 10 years warranty, which is associated with its reliability and reliability in operation.

Country of manufacture may vary. They collect equipment of this brand both in Korea and in India, China, Thailand and Poland. There are differences in the operation of refrigerators Korean and Polish assembly. The units manufactured in Korea and China noticeably heat up the side walls, which is connected, as experts say, with the principle of heat removal. Polish manufacturers refined this nuance by ensuring heat removal through the back wall of the refrigerator.

In the domestic market, two brands are clear leaders in this segment of household appliances: Bosch and Samsung.

Both manufacturers offer products for every budget, there are low-end models, and there are premium refrigerators. Therefore, first of all, it is worth assessing the set of offered functionality, then compare prices and design.

Both Bosch and Samsung offer “No Frost” in their models, which provides dry removal of frost and condensate. Also, both have a zero camera Vita Fresh, in the compartments of which you can adjust the level of humidity, although the sizes of the compartments allocated for it and their location are different.

As for the level of reliability, then Samsung refrigerators should pay attention to the country of origin. In the reviews, they often complain about the quality of the Chinese assembly units, noting that "true Koreans" have no complaints about the operation. Bosch refrigerators have almost no complaints about reliability; it heads all possible ratings,gaining the maximum number of points for the uninterrupted operation of the compressor in various temperature conditions and for the tightness of the chambers.

The energy consumption class of the products of both firms is at least A, but it is worth remembering that if there are two compressors, the appliance will always consume more electricity than a refrigerator with one compressor. Also, the inverter compressor (in Bosch’s premium-class models) will be more energy-intensive compared to the classic one.

The noise level of both manufacturers will be higher in models with the system "No frost. "

Both companies include in their products such an option as “Vacation"Allowing to save the electric power in the absence of opening of doors of the refrigerator."

Bosch refrigerators have a body made of metal and coated with an enamel coating, having a dirt-repellent effect. Samsung offers luxury stainless steel refrigerators along with this there are budget options, the cabinet of which is made of impact-resistant plastic.

If you compare the price tag, then Samsung offers slightly lower prices, especially in the budget segment of the market.

The characteristics of each specific refrigerator depend on many parameters, therefore the indicators of such a refrigerator, such as Family hub will differ significantly from the budget model.

Consider some of the parameters inherent in various models. In most modern versions of refrigerators Samsung necessarily there is such a function as the presence of a freshness zone, which is a compartment that is equipped with additional ventilation and in which a lower temperature can be setthan the rest of the refrigerator.

At temperatures from -1 to +3, microorganisms cannot multiply in products, thereby prolonging the shelf life of cooled products. For example, in a conventional refrigerator, chilled meat could retain its properties for about a day, and in the freshness zone this period will be 5 days. Likewise, fresh berries will retain their taste qualities much longer.

Another useful feature that distinguishes Samsung refrigerators is the presence of a special compartment in the refrigerator compartment, which is a drawer: Cool Select zone. The temperature in this zone can be chosen at will, and thanks to high-quality thermal insulation it does not affect the operation mode of the entire refrigerating chamber. Usually inside the Cool Select zone the following temperature conditions can be set:

• Thawing mode;
• Zero temperature;
• Easy freeze mode;
• Maintain freshness of products;
• Cooling all kinds of drinks.

The weight and dimensions of the refrigerator differ depending on its model, usually for the consumer indicate its external dimensions and volume, intended for the storage of fresh and frozen products.

For example, FSRNDWW, It is a classic version of a refrigerator with a freezer, the total useful storage volume is 310 liters, while for fresh products 321 liters is provided, for a freezer, 98l. Freezing capacity - 12 kg per day.

The weight of this unpacked model is 70 kg, in packing - 72 kg.

Sizes without packaging - 595*697*1850.

Power consumption - 280 kWh per year (sometimes daily consumption in watts can be indicated); the required mains voltage 220, 50; sound power level - 37 dBA; energy efficiency class is designated as A +.

A feature like "No Frost", exists in almost every modern model of the refrigerator of this company. Another name for this technology is dry freezing, it appeared due to the fact that condensate droplets that inevitably appear when the refrigerant is working, according to this technology, are partially dried automatically, not having time to freeze and turn into the usual frost, and the rest flows into a special container. As a result, the refrigerator and freezer do not require frequent defrosting, which significantly saves housewives time.

To the disadvantages of the system "No frost"include an increase in energy consumption and increased noise from operating fans. Also, the movement of air dries not only condensation drops on the back of the refrigerator, but also the products stored in it, so you need to keep them in closed containers.

Since 2007in the production of Samsung refrigerators used technology "Silver Nano", with which the coating of the inner walls of some models is performed. In accordance with it, the composition of the coating includes silver ions, which, due to their disinfecting properties, have an antibacterial and antifungal effect, inhibiting the metabolism of microorganisms.

Especially good This feature “works” in conjunction with the “No Frost” system.which ensures a constant circulation of air inside the refrigerator, thereby disinfected with silver air is spread throughout the refrigerator. The company's specialists have proven that technology "Silver nano"confronts more than 650 species of microorganisms.

In addition to these technologies, which have already become familiar to the domestic user, the company also offers completely new developments:

1. "Mono Cooling", in which one fan is responsible for evaporation and for the distribution of cooled air flows, thereby reducing the noise of the unit and its energy consumption;
2. "Twin Cooling System", providing separate operation of the cooling of the freezing chamber and the refrigeration compartment;
3. "Multi Flow""responsible for the distribution of airflow inside the refrigerator, in which the storage of food becomes optimal;
4. "Low Frost"which is used in the freezer compartment, allowing the formation of a thin layer of frost that does not turn into a voluminous “coat”;
5. "SpaceMax", which is an improved system for insulating the walls of the device.

The first thing to remember when choosing a place for such a complex household appliance, which is a refrigerator, is the presence of a hard and flat surface on which to place it. In this case, you need to make sure that nothing prevents the door from opening freely, otherwise you need to either mark the chosen installation location or move the doors (almost all Samsung models offer this feature).

Installation on a strictly horizontal floor is required for normal operation of the internal cooling system of the unit. The important point is that in order to maximize the tightness of the refrigerator, it should stand slightly “in tilt” towards the back wall. To achieve this, rotating adjustment legs are provided, fitted with rubber seals (distributors).

The distance from the refrigerator to the walls or furniture should be at least 5 cm, which are necessary for normal operation of the device, more specifically, for air circulation and more uniform heat removal.

After installation, you can configure the refrigerator and start using it. Turning on the outlet of the device in the network, you need to make sure that when you open the door, the interior lighting is triggered, then you need to turn on the cooling controller to full capacity and allow the device to cool the freezer for an hour and go to a stable operating mode. Within a few hours, he will set the required temperature and after that he will work less noisy, only then it will be possible to place the products in it.

You can adjust the temperature and adjust it according to your own wishes with the help of the remote control of the refrigerator. In some models, the remote replaces the touch screen. For the freezer and the refrigerator, the values ​​are set individually.

Service and warranty repair of refrigerators Samsung produced in the service centers of the company, which are in every major city, or in services that have the authorization of the company.

In recent years, refrigerators have undergone significant changes, their outlines have become more impressive, and their efficiency has increased significantly.

If food storage needs are minimal, consider a compact mini-fridge option. The cost of such a model like SG06, does not exceed 5000 rubles. Its weight is about 18 kg, it is equipped with a small freezer and represents classic mini barwhich can be placed in any corner of the room, or, for example, put on a dresser.

The next option is a refrigerator with a top freezer, usually models in the range of 35,000 rubles and above. For example, model Samsung RT35K5440S8 worth 41,990 rubles in the M.video stores. The volume of this model is 273 l + 98 l, digital inverter, there is a system "No Frost "and super-freeze mode.

Among the refrigerators having lower freezers, there are One Door models (having one door) and French Door (French doors).

The price of small budget models, for example, Samsung RB33J3301EF, is at the level of 38,000 rubles. This refrigerator has an average volume sufficient for a family of three or four people (refrigeration compartment 206 l, freezer cabinet 98l), automatic mode of the refrigerating and freezing chambers "No frost", there is a zone of freshness in the form of a 15-liter box, super-freezing mode, graphic display.

In the event that a family needs a larger unit, its price will be in the range of 60-70,000 rubles. As an example, Samsung RB37K63411L model. This refrigerator has a total volume of 367 liters (269 liters for a refrigerated cabinet and 69 liters for a freezer). Inverter type household compressor systemNo frost"in both compartments, superfrost and supercooling modes, fresh zone, mode"vacation ", brackets for storing bottles, there is a folding shelf. The touchscreen display and design of the door using glass and backlight give this model a very impressive look.

Refrigerators with so-called French doors (French door), still called multi-chamber, this is new in the domestic market of household appliances.They offer a much wider storage space for products, spectacular design and premium features. Refrigerator cost French door It starts with 45,000 rubles, it consists of a lower freezer with one door and an upper refrigerated compartment with two hinged doors.

As a sample, you can bring a model Samsung RF 62 UBPN, which has a volume of 423 liters (refrigerator compartment 288 liters and freezer compartment 135 liters). The system of dry freezing in these models implies the separate functioning of the compartments (Twin cooling), which is provided by one compressor. The inner walls are treated with antibacterial coating using technology Silver nanoinstalled deodorizer. The unit is equipped with an additional function of cooling water and dispensing ice.

The most common family refrigerators are models called Side-by-side. These are voluminous units, which have a cost from 85 to 140,000 rubles. An example of such a refrigerator can serve model Samsung RS552NRUA1J , the cost of which in the M.video stores is 94,000 rubles. The volume of the freezer compartment in it is 197 liters, which is two times more than the standard one door refrigerator, the refrigerator compartment is also much larger - 341 liters. Both compartments operate in the dry frost mode "No Frost".

Present system "Twin Cooling Plus", providing cooling with two air streams, supplemented by ventilation technology "Multi Flow", in a complex, it allows the owners of such a refrigerator not to worry about mixing products odors located on different shelves. The freezer is located on the left, the refrigerator compartment is on the right. This model has a “holiday” mode, a super-freezing mode, a freshness zone, an ice generator, and a sound signal for opening the door.

Embedded models are designed to be on par with kitchen cabinets and countertops, and often have decorative front panels that help them fit into the design of the kitchen. Prices for built-in refrigerators are somewhat higher compared to freestanding ones, which is associated with the peculiarities of their operation, namely, with the modernization of the heat removal system, which has been modified. As an example, consider model Samsung SG-12 DCGWHNwhich, with a total volume of 118 liters, has a cost of more than 30,000 rubles. This fridge freezer is located at the top, is 30l. Coating material - plastic. Defrosting the chamber is manual, but there is a dry freezing system in the refrigerator compartment.

In the process of choosing a refrigerator, you should always pay attention to what material the enclosed shelves and brackets are made of, and whether there are any additional accessories.

For most Samsung models, the main shelves are made of tempered glass that has a metal edging, or, as in the built-in refrigerator Samsung SG-12 DCGWHN - made of metal. For such shelves do not need much care, they are reliable, aesthetic look, perfectly combined with LED lights inside the refrigerator. In the event that the hostess needs a large space inside the refrigerator for storing high cans or pans, you should choose a refrigerator equipped with a folding shelf, for example Samsung RB37K63411L.

For convenient storage of such a fragile product as chicken eggs, the refrigerator can be equipped with an overhead container.

Many models have a bracket for storing bottles, some doors are equipped with volume pockets, which even fit a two-liter bottle.

An additional and very convenient feature is the ability to re-hang the refrigerator door at home. Both the master from the service center and the owner himself, who has some technical skills, will be able to cope with this work.
