First 2 points that I did not like:
1 - I had the combination ordered in stainless steel and paid. However, only the doors in stainless steel, the sides are somehow gray / silver painted. And I had taken in the description on the "chrome stainless metallic / anti-fingerprint" was listed. Maybe I ought to have "stainless steel look" tick !? - I do not know ...
2 - The order was on 1 April (no joke) and the delivery was announced April 8. So far everything is OK.
Then I get an email about the Tracking expected date of delivery and 5 April. Great ...
The Altgerätentsorgung was agreed with, and so I have the old device in the evening before or removed and cleaned provides to pick. Since I'm working on Saturdays, I had to "organize" someone who was present during the day to take the unit to receive. Of course, the unit came on April 5, but as announced on April 8 - hence I was by Fr. - Tue without a fridge! :(
Normally I see about little "ailments" of time, because nobody is perfect, but I think that already was a serious gaffe but for which the unit has earned no penalty!
+++++
Now we come to essentially the Freeze- refrigerators.
The unit is just great, looks good and has plenty of space. The stainless steel surface (unfortunately only the door so) can really hold very facilitated clean, or clean. All mechanical components are very valuable and also the plastic parts and drawers feel very comfortable (not as cheap plastic).
The safety glass of Abstelflächen has, I think a non-slip effect, and does not rattle so if you put a glass top. (As if it were easily gummed)
The vegetable bin on wheels is optical, as well as virtually a "looker". When I open the refrigerator the eye falls immediately on nice fresh salad and vegetables that keeps much longer than our old device.
The door can be integrated beverage surfaces and carafes stowed and secured by the pressing device against rattle and slip. Here I count 1.5 Ltr. Bottles and special sizes are not standard!
Also in the freezer you through the transparent boxes everything in sight. Very pleasant is the separate temperature control. However, I have asked the temperature of the refrigerator instead of the delivery temperature of 4 ° to 6 °, 4 ° because I was personally too cold. The standard temperature of 18 ° in the freezer so I left.
Noise - YES, the Freeze- makes noises ...
When the unit delivered, installed and connected was - the supply and Altgräteentsorgung on the 1st floor, incidentally, was impeccable - we have taken the device after 6 hours at night in operation. The combination was clearly heard and would in the long run have been determined uncomfortable.
The next morning was heard on "Bertiebstemperatur" and hardly sounds anything. The combination makes other noises as
our old built-in refrigerator. Not more sonorous hum this, but slight gurgling sounds or slight fan buzz.
Therefore, one should be prepared for this "other" sounds and the old "hum" forgotten.
Personally, I think that I can forget these new sounds safely in our living room because:
- Our AEG convection oven is noisy in operation.
- Our SENSEO is loud during operation.
- Our SIEMENS dishwasher is noisy in operation.
- The kitchen radio is loud during operation.
- Every conversation is louder.
- The food processor .... (no need for discussion)
I have a great device purchased in any case about which I can not report anything serious negative. Therefore, I give 5 stars and you - as long as you do not mind "another soundscape" in refrigeration equipment - a strong buy recommendation.
+++++
Addendum of 07/17/2014:
As before, I am enthusiastic about this fridge freezer, especially since I now have more information regarding usage.
I compared my utility bills from April, May, June to the values of last year and made a very pleasing reducing my electricity cost of 12-15 euros per month note. :)
The beer at World Cup was also pretty cold ... (It fit 2 table kegs of 5Ltr. In the lower compartment lying in)
:)
