Choosing the perfect Fridge / Freezer
There are several things to consider when buying a new fridge, freezer, or combination fridge-freezer. These helpful tips are aimed to get you the best product for your budget.
Styling
Depending whether you go integrated or not, the fridge is probably the largest appliance in your kitchen, so it’s important that you are happy with the style and colour. The MIELE KD28032 ws is White but there are potentially other colour options available. The same goes for the BOSCH Serie 4 KGD36VI30G.
Size
Dimensions are key, particularly if you’re limited by space. The majority of fridge freezers will come in the standard 60cm width, but there are many different variations available from retailers like Currys. The Miele MIELE KD28032 ws has the following dimensions 1817 x 600 x 630 mm (H x W x D) and the Bosch BOSCH Serie 4 KGD36VI30G is 1860 x 600 x 650 mm (H x W x D). Use these to measure up in your kitchen and be confident that it will fit. Also consider the space required for opening the door. You can find the size including door openings above in the spec table.
Noise
An often forgotten about consideration, the noise of the fridge. As technology has developed they have become much quieter in recent years, but there’s no doubt they still make a noise. This is more of a consideration for people who’s bedroom is located close to the kitchen, for example smaller flats. So keep an eye on the noise rating if it’s important to you. The MIELE KD28032 ws has a decibel rating of 40 dB(A) and the BOSCH Serie 4 KGD36VI30G is 42 dB(A).
