They are designed to keep the freshest food which is crucial for meat, fish and dairy products.
Hotpoint models we have reviewed have a neat feature called active oxygen. This releases ozone molecules into the refrigerator, which reduces bacteria by as much as 90% and reduces bad smells. It can also help to preserve food and reduce food waste which is a huge problem in the UK as 70 percent of food waste in households is due to buying too much or food that is past its peak before it gets eaten.
Other handy features include a dairy section that's ideal for storing milk, butter and cheese, as well as an LED light that offers bright, natural-looking illumination of the freezer and fridge sections. The controls are easy to use and read. There's also a super cool button that instantly cools down fresh groceries.
The model also comes with an option for automatic defrost which eliminates the need to manually defrost. The door to the freezer or fridge will sound an alarm if opened for too long. There's also a built-in dispenser for filtered water and a useful door alarm.
Another excellent feature is the reversible door that can be opened to either side of the appliance based on the configuration of your kitchen. The pull-out salad drawer is great to store vegetables since it keeps them fresher longer. There are plenty of storage solutions with baskets, shelves and movable racks.
Design
Hotpoint refrigerator freezers are equipped with a range of innovative technologies that help keep food fresher for longer. There are many options, including absence of frost that ensures air is always circulated within the appliance to stop moisture and ice from forming and active oxygen that reduces the amount of bacteria by up to 99 percent.
This model also has two drawers of storage in the fridge section. The top drawer features a dial that adjusts the humidity, meaning that fruit and vegetables can stay crisper longer. The bottom drawer is designed for fish and meat, and comes with a floor that is ribbed for stability. Both drawers have been made to be more spacious than those found in other models, which means they are easier to fill with groceries. The overcrowding of a freezer can make cold air circulate less efficiently, which can increase the likelihood of heat pockets forming and making the appliance more difficult to operate.
The refrigerator is built with strong French doors that are easy to close and open but they do limit the amount of space that can be used by the door. The left door rack is able to hold six pints of supermarket milk, while the right door rack can hold four pints. There isn't space for anything else in the other two doors. The top shelf in each door can be moved either way by 5.5cm. However, shorter people might have trouble reaching it without a step.
The control panel on the front of the refrigerator cabinet clearly shows all the key fridge and freezer functions including temperature, making it simple to determine if there's a issue. There are also some useful extra functions to simplify life, such as the super freeze button, which quickly lowers the temperature of the freezer to preserve fresh foods and an ice maker which can make up to three kilograms of ice every day.
Hotpoint refrigerators come with a one year warranty that covers parts and labor. The customer service team is on hand to provide assistance and advice if you are experiencing problems with your refrigerator or freezer. They can also arrange for a repairman to visit if necessary.
Energy efficiency
Fridge freezers aren't simply ice boxes anymore, with many models that have a myriad of different options. Nowadays energy efficiency is the primary goal. It is because refrigerators consume a lot electricity and therefore choosing an energy-efficient model is crucial to reducing your energy bills. You can make your refrigerator more energy efficient by reducing its temperature (e.g. to 5 or 4 degrees colder) and taking out items that are going to go bad soon.
You can also take advantage of simple things like purchasing a refrigerator with an A+ rating, which means that it has been tested independently and approved to cut down on energy consumption. This will help you save money and make a little difference to the environment.
The energy rating of a fridge is based on the amount of energy it consumes every day, as well its total energy consumption per year. This is because if the fridge is being used for a long period of time, it will consume more power than if it was only used for a short duration. It's important to read the energy label prior to buying a new appliance.
