Matibay At Matipid Sa Kuryente! 7 Best Inverter Refrigerators, According To Moms

• A refrigerator is perhaps the most important appliance for any family home. Because they’re expensive, moms want reliable, energy efficient options that can last many years.

  Inverter refrigerator vs traditional refrigerators

  We asked our parenting community, Smart Parenting Village, to recommend their top brands for refrigerators. Surprisingly, many of them recommended inverter types because it is “matipid sa kuryente.”

  Traditional refrigerators have compressors that operate at full speed when it needs cooling down and then stops completely when the temperature is already low enough. Inverter compressors, on the other hand, start slowly. It increases its speed until it gets to the desired temperature, then decreases again to maintain it.

  In a sense, inverter compressors are smart enough to tell when it needs to start operating at a higher speed to compensate the loss of cold air (for example, when you are loading food inside the fridge and the door is kept open for a long time) and when it needs to slow down (at night, when there is little to no activity).

  The no-frost option is convenient, plus it has an anti-bacterial protector technology where the “circulating air inside is constantly sterilized and deodorized so hindi nagiging mabaho inside,” according to one mom. The moist fresh zone keeps fruits and vegetables fresher longer and it also comes with a 10-year warranty for the compressor.

  Parents love the brand because it is durable — “proven na matibay. From elementary until may kids na ako, yan na ang brand namin,” says one mom. Try this one with a bottom freezer, which they say is more convenient and easier to organize since “para lang siyang drawer cabinet.”

  The chiller zone comes with an adjustable temperature control and it also has a power off memory that prevents food spoilage. The LED touch panel makes it easier to manage the temperature, too!

  6. Beko GN163122S

  Apart from a reliable kitchen companion, you’d also want a brand that offers excellent after sales service. One mom says she found it in Beko.

  If you have the budget, try this option with French doors — it has wider shelves and larger door bins than traditional units, which means more storage. You’ll also have ease of access and be able to organize food more effectively.
