Features of Bosch refrigerators
Where are Bosch refrigerators assembled? The original country of manufacture of the equipment is Germany, but now Bosch equipment is assembled in Russia. It all began in 1886, and today the company does not stop there: billions of dollars are invested annually in the development of new technologies. Residents of 150 countries use refrigeration equipment from Bosch.
Types and sizes are different, everyone can choose based on their needs and the number of people in the family.
- Free-standing combination refrigerators with a lower freezer are in demand. Since the refrigerator compartment is used more often, you do not have to bend over every time.
- Single chamber cabinet without freezer compartment. With the new technology Vita Fresh 0 ° products retain their nutrients, shape, color.
- Side-by-side refrigerators for large kitchens and families. Two doors hide the freezer and refrigerator compartment. Provide convenient storage and excellent visibility.
- Built-in models for lovers of ergonomic solutions. Appliances will hide in the closet, which is part of the kitchen set.
One and two compressor refrigerators to choose from. The presence of two motors allows you to separately control the temperature in the chambers, as well as turn off one of them if necessary.
Cooling type
Today, manufacturers offer three cooling options:
- Drip (Direct cool). Needs defrosting at least once every six months. Due to the “crying evaporator” the condensate freezes, forming ice on the walls.
- Know Frost (without hoarfrost). The presence of fans ensures an even temperature distribution. Constant air circulation does not allow moisture to accumulate and freeze.
- Low frost This is a new development of the company. The special design of the evaporator minimizes the temperature difference between the compartments. Optimum humidity is maintained, so the food does not dry out.
Energy efficiency
The refrigerator is one of the largest energy consumers in the home. It is better to choose a more expensive model, but with optimal power consumption A + and A ++. Such equipment will consume 23-40% less electricity than representatives of class A.
Some Bosch models are warranted for up to 10 years. The coupon covers repair costs during this period.
Inner space
Cameras hold shelves and storage boxes. Bosch developed containers for long-term storage of individual products:
- Chiller Box is ideal for storing fish and meat products. Maintains cool temperature and low humidity.
- Hydro Fresh - high humidity helps preserve vegetables, fruits, salads.
- Vita Fresh includes two climatic zones: humidity 50% for storing fish, and 95% for fruits and vegetables.
Features and Technology
Operation should be simple and straightforward. Therefore, manufacturers have developed Freshsense technology: a special sensor measures the ambient temperature and adjusts the climate inside the camera. Thus, there is no load on the compressor, in addition, the technology works automatically, without user intervention.
And:
- AntiBacteria. The antibacterial coating allows you to store food in hygienic conditions. Silver ions prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi.
- Vacation mode. Leaving for vacation, you can leave the freezer compartment to work as usual, and in the refrigerator set economical energy consumption.
- IceTwister allows you to quickly prepare ice for soft drinks.

Vadim
He approached the purchase of the refrigerator responsibly. I have only one room in my apartment, so a loud unit would ruin my whole life. The German assembly is good, in addition, reviews were pleased. The KIN86AF30 is really quiet. Although the height is only 1.77, which is very small compared to two-meter devices, everything is organized correctly inside. The shelves are rearranged, so there is room for large pots.
I liked the Nou Frost system. Foods are stored longer, since defrosting is much less common. A couple of hours is enough to turn off and wash the compartments, because the ice does not freeze. The only negative in this model is the price. Not everyone will be able to lay out such an amount on technology. But to find another built-in device of this quality is difficult.
