I've been looking for 10 hours to find a quiet as possible KG, and of at least A ++ has. Internet, e-markets, reviews, etc. and then I came across the Panasonic, the (also in test reports) to be very quiet allegedly (38-36 decibels) but its predecessor. I bought the thing, monster package over 2 meters high had to unpack in the hallway, because the tip was no place for me to come through the door. Delivery almost perfect 2 times delivery changed, but at 90 Kg and 2 meters long and 2 man delivery service, including waste disposal (transport company Top! Third floor without elevator! (Good tip was a must!) Still at least five stars! Now to the Refrigerator, erected and put into the water (not for technicians aligned with the spirit level to the right and left and back to front) and turn. Refrigerator goes on full load and I do not think this thing is not loud like a laptop is idle! So what I met the most important was to 100%, as much for noise. Leek one week in the crisper and the green leaves you can still cancel super! Bottle cage may make sense and also looks good for wine and sparkling wine drinker, but for me as Munich are 5 subjects when I visit then get too little, so out with it. Processing just fine! Conclusion: 1000 Euros is a lot of money for a KG, which is also available for 400 but how quiet are they? PS: I only write about things that are good or bad mediocrity is not an issue for me!
I own the KGK for two years and am still totally satisfied, inaudible at currently 4 weeks at 30 degrees room temperature in the apartment, in bedroom always open, not to hear anything to the kitchen side by side from the fridge (maybe by pianists).
