The silver / black square is delivered well packed, a lot of Styrofoam and cardboard protects against damage. From the shell free, normally propose the suspension of the device for about 24 hours, at least I got this advice from inherited Papa. Coolant and stuff. After that - and after screwing the rod handle - is the refrigerator without any restrictions.
Having trouble? Hardly. The attachment of the door handle is a little tedious, because the internal rubber seal must be removed for it and those that came, screws are down quite short. Carelessness the short screw therefore jammed in the hollow casing of the door and can be placed correctly only with great difficulty. In this respect, could be improved in the production, but the matter is not a particular fracture. A guidance lies with, however, is not very helpful, let alone necessary at all. The operation "shoot power plug in socket" succeed even without instructions, following the controls restrict the refrigerator on a rotating wheel for temperature control (1-5) and a button for the interior lighting.
The other side effects are clear. Initially I took the background noise of the refrigerator unenthusiastic note, but the disturbing hum is complete after a few minutes - namely when the desired cooling temperature is reached. Periodically Cooling switches in the following period to yet, but the whole procedure is identical to that of conventional refrigerators and competitors. Much more important - the cooling performance convinced Stage 4 cools drinks pleasantly drinkable 7-8 ° C. Level 5 would further push this result course towards 0 ° C zone.
Although advertised and declared "Beer Safe", the Klarstein cools naturally across the range of drinks. Even large 2-liter PET bottles found (lying) sufficient space, the fine adjustment of the maximum of three levels can be adjusted at any time to their own desires within the preset slots.
So far everything well, only in a region patzt the device. The energy efficiency is the class B no figurehead, and power consumption of about 175 kWh / year is quite high. All reason enough to deny an otherwise impeccable product the highest rating of five stars.
Conclusion: A pretty, modern & cooling space saver, with a little too much energy claim.
