The equipment is top and met up after a few weeks now use in every respect fully our expectations. While it is not "whisper quiet" because you would have probably already investing significantly more for an appropriate cooling-freezer. The combination is with us in the kitchen and also with the door open to the living room, my wife and I, when the device switches on no problem. I would like to highlight the very easy operation from outside, measurements showed that, depending on the temperature setting matches 100% with the respective manufacturer's instructions. For our purposes, the setting of +7 degrees for cooling and is - 17 degrees during the freezing part perfectly adequate. For energy consumption * and durability I can logically say anything after the short period of use. At present we I can only recommend the device for a 2-person household! * One can calculate times how long it takes for the extra cost of an A +++ have armortisiert be ??? !!!
