A refrigerator is not just a household appliance. It is a guarantee of the freshness of food, an assistant in hot weather and a necessary element of every kitchen.

But how to choose a refrigerator that is suitable for the climate of Uzbekistan, will not let you down in the summer and will last for many years?
Loretto shares a complete guide: from volume and energy efficiency to modern technologies and life hacks when buying.

1. Types of refrigerators — which one should I choose?

🧊 Classic two - chamber

• One chamber is a refrigerator, the other is a freezer

• The most common format

• Convenient for families of 3-5 people

• The freezer can be on top or bottom

❄️ Side-by-Side (American style)

• Two doors: one is a refrigerator, the other is a freezer

• Volume up to 600 liters

• Ideal for large families and country houses.

• It often has a water dispenser, an ice maker

🧺 Single - chamber

• Refrigerator compartment only (or a small freezer inside)

• Suitable for offices, cottages, students

❄️ Freezer chest

• High volume, freezing only

• An excellent choice for those who buy groceries for the future.

2. How much volume is needed?

Have important:

For the climate of Uzbekistan, it is better to choose models with reinforced thermal insulation, especially if the refrigerator is in the kitchen with a sunny side.

3. Freezer compartment: top or bottom?

👉 Conclusion: if you often use a freezer— take a model with a freezer from below.

4. Cooling system: No Frost or Drip?

❄️ Без заморозков

• Automatic defrosting

• No ice is formed

• Uniform cooling

• Slightly noisier and more expensive

💧 Drip system

5. Energy efficiency
