The 6 Best Freezer

Table of Contents:

In summer it’s twice as important: the freezer – instead of the ice blocks of the past! We’ve long forgotten that: Earth holes in the garden or the brook or pond next to the house had to be enough to cool food or drinks about one hundred years ago. The cellar under the residential building, which was still cool at the time, was also a popular place to store perishable food and beverages. Wooden barrels or earthenware vessels were made more durable with all sorts of goods that would otherwise perish quickly. From about 1930 in the USA and about 20 years later also in Germany, the then still called “icebox” – still quite huge – appliances prevailed. Where to now with freshly picked raspberries, strawberries, blackberries – if they cannot be processed directly? In the freezer, of course – and that’s no longer quite right or more than ten years old? Yes, there must be a new one and there you have a good selection of high-quality devices. Today you get extremely economical refrigerators and freezers whose energy consumption is extremely reduced by the energy efficiency classes from A+ to A+++. If there is enough space, a freezer is the better solution compared to a freezer for households that value good storage. A freezer is also particularly suitable if you have sufficient space in your house, apartment or cellar for a large appliance. If you also have your own garden and can harvest vegetables or fruit yourself, the freezer may not be big enough. The optimum capacity of your new freezer should be calculated according to the people living in your household. Normally 50 – 80 liters per person would be, with generous storage 100 – 130 liters per person should be taken as a basis. A freezer adapted to the needs of your family members is therefore recommended and very important for energy utilisation. The average useful capacity is 200 – 450 litres.

Our Top Freezer Pick

Large electrical appliances: Freezer Video Guide

Your new freezer has energy efficiency, special functions, modern equipment features and today you get a new freezer with many refinements, electronic innovations and a practical interior. The number of baskets is well adapted to the size of the unit. With a height of approx. 86 cm and a width of 110 cm to 150 cm of the freezer it is equipped with 2 – 4 baskets. Even Flexiregs are almost standard with the devices of different manufacturers. Flexireg is a modular system that separates different areas in the freezer by a grid. This ensures greater clarity and effective separation of foodstuffs. A digital temperature display – also called MagicEye – with a digital temperature display and an optical alarm when the temperature rises are very practical. The lighting of the interior of many devices is also almost indispensable. Some companies already offer functions such as low-frost technology or a so-called stop-frost system for their devices, which at least slightly reduce unpleasant ice formation. The NoFrost technology, which is often used in freezers and can save you the trouble of defrosting (up to five years), is still quite rare in freezers – but of course it would make a lot of sense. A great thing is the super-freezing function: By switching on this quick-freezing function in time, the existing temperature is further cooled down. A large cold accumulator is formed in the freezer, which ensures that the fresh food to be chilled freezes super-fast without the previously stored food cooling down quickly. AEG, Beko, Liebherr and Miele already offer freezers with door locks to protect against unauthorised access. So: no lack of good and very good freezers and therefore you save a lot of time and money!
