How to choose a built-in fridge with a price/quality ratio?

When buying a built-in refrigerator you should pay special attention to the following parameters:

1. Dimensions. It is necessary to choose carefully, if the kitchen set is already purchased.
2. Class of energy consumption. Built-in appliances consume a small amount of electricity. The optimal class - A+, the most economical - A+++.
3. Defrosting system. Refrigerators equipped with the system "No Frost" - the ideal solution in modern conditions. The fact is that drip systems can leak, which can ruin furniture as a result.
4. Total volume. In homes where 1-2 people live, a refrigerator with a volume of up to 150 liters is enough. If the family consists of 4 and more members, it is better to stop at a more capacious model.
5. Noise level. In order for the refrigerator not to cause discomfort at night, it is necessary to choose with an index of up to 40 dB.
6. Additional features. These include: regulating the level of humidity, various signals alerting about certain problems, the presence of a display, temperature control, etc. Before buying, you should carefully study the technical specifications of the refrigerator. This will help not to make a wrong choice.
