We’re sure that there are a lot of questions that pop into your head: What size should I get? Which features are the most important? How important is energy efficiency? Chances are buying a new refrigerator could get a little overwhelming. There’s no need to worry, we can help you out by getting these common questions out of the way!

1. What’s the ideal refrigerator size?

As there are many different refrigerator sizes to accommodate living spaces of all sizes, assessing how big your household is and understanding what their lifestyle consists of is a great start to figuring out the ideal refrigerator size. Check out these standard fridge types to determine which would offer enough space for your household’s needs:

Single Door Refrigerator
It’s considered as the most common fridge size in the Philippines due to its compact, reliable, and economical build. Gone are your worries about your electric bills as it’s an energy-efficient refrigerator! It’s small size makes it the perfect match for a household with 2 to 4 members.

Two Door Refrigerator
Often come in different styles: Top and Bottom Freezer and a Side by Side refrigerator. No need to worry about shopping ahead and in bulk as it is built for big households of around 4 to 5 members. It’s designed with a larger storage capacity to help keep your food fresh.

2. What’s the difference between an inverter and a non-inverter?

Energy efficiency is one of the main factors to consider when buying a new refrigerator since it will continue to run around the clock for the next decade or so. Needless to say, it will have quite the impact on your electric bill.

The difference between an inverter and a non-inverter lies within their compressor. An inverter compressor is considered to be more energy efficient since it has the capacity to regulate the temperature of the refrigerator when it has reached its optimal temperature, hence lower electric consumption. Although inverter refrigerators do cost more upfront, the electric savings and long lasting quality will be worth it as the years go by.

3. Which features are worth looking into?

With the constant innovation of modern technology, refrigerators are more than just a place to store perishable goods. Nowadays, a great fridge aims to integrate seamlessly into your lifestyle and provide convenience. Check out some of the features to look out for:

Adjustable shelves help maximize the space based on your needs and make the cleaning process more manageable.

Interior lighting or LED lighting will fully illuminate the interior to make the food more visible and easier to find, especially during those late night snacks you’ve been having.

Dedicated Ice Tray may not be top of mind when choosing a new refrigerator, but it sure comes in handy during those hot summer days or for when you’re simply taking your hosting-levels up a notch with your ice cold signature drinks.
