The model range of Samsung refrigerators will undoubtedly satisfy consumers, both with mid-price models and expensive ones, with several doors, a sophisticated design and additional functions designed for wealthy buyers.
Types and types of Samsung refrigerators. Countries of origin
To purchase the right model, you should understand what types of refrigeration units are available in our country. So, Korean manufacturers produce the following refrigerator models:
- Two-chamber units - a freezer located on top, they are practical and have relatively small dimensions;
- Combi - there is a volumetric freezer located at the bottom, separate cooling of the chambers;

The type of refrigerators of this popular brand depends on their purpose and is divided into the following categories:
- Refrigerator with freezer;
- Freezers;
- Refrigerator without freezer (with inverter compressors).
The products differ in design features, shape, volume, set of various functions, type and type of freezing.
Refrigeration units, depending on the type of freezing system, are divided into:
- compressor
- absorption
The most widely used refrigerator among consumers is the compressor refrigerator. It is safe, reliable and simple, with high performance.
The advantage of an absorption refrigerator is that it is silent, but the disadvantage is its low performance and the risk of poisoning with harmful fumes.
Currently, Samsung refrigerators are assembled in factories in Korea, China, India and Poland. All of the listed factories for the production of Samsung kitchen units produce products of excellent quality.

Internal volume, weight and dimensions.
When buying a refrigerator, carefully study its dimensions, internal volume and weight. Then its installation will not cause unnecessary problems. How are refrigerators classified according to size (dimensions):
Small refrigerators
Usually low with a small freezer located inside the refrigerator. The dimensions of this category of refrigerators are: height no more than 160 cm, width no more than 55 centimeters, depth up to 60 cm.
These small refrigerators are bought for country houses, office rooms and hotel rooms. Most often, the buyers of small-sized models are pensioners and students.
"European" standard
Standard two-chamber models, depth -60 cm and width - 60 cm, height 1m 70 cm to 2 m 05 cm. The volume of the freezer is 260 - 350 liters, optimal for a small family.
"Asian" standard
Refrigerators have a round shape, the freezer is located at the top. They are also sold in a two-chamber version. These refrigerators are 80 cm wide and up to 170 cm high. The useful volume of these refrigerators is approximately 200 - 260 liters. That you can arrange a family of up to 3 people.
Large refrigerators, the volume of which is 350 - 800 liters, refrigerator models are sold with a width of approximately 60 cm and a height of 195 - 210 centimeters.
When buying such a refrigerator, consider how tall your family members are. Small people will find it difficult to use refrigerators.
The choice of refrigerator volume and chamber filling volume depends on the needs of your family, so the choice is yours.
Refrigerator design, appearance, facing materials and color
When choosing your refrigerator, you should take a closer look at its design. The location of the handle, the color, the interior design, it’s nice if its design matches the color scheme for your kitchen. Manufacturers try to take into account the wishes of consumers and the latest fashion trends, producing refrigerators decorated in wooden, metal and glass cases - real works of art!
The color of the case can be any; the creators of refrigerators produce units of almost any color and shade; advanced connoisseurs of refrigerators are attracted to models of the new-fangled high-tech style, made entirely of steel and aluminum.
When choosing a refrigerator, we recommend that you give preference to its equipment, ease of use, color and facing material.
Number of doors and cameras
Modern models of multi-compartment refrigerators have up to five chambers, the number of doors can be two or more. Multi-chamber units love spacious living space and a decent wallet size. They are designed for wealthy buyers.
Freezing system and freezer
No Frost - automatic defrosting NoFrost is a process of optimal freezing and cooling of products, carried out using forced air circulation by a fan, moisture condenses on the evaporator and then automatic defrosting of frost occurs.
If the selected model has a “No Frost” freezing system, then you will not need to defrost the refrigerator, thereby you will be spared the tedious manual defrosting of the freezer, and products blown with cold air will be stored for a much longer time, without changing its taste and original appearance.
Climate class
An indicator of the climatic zone conditions for which household appliance products are developed. To answer the question of what type of refrigerator is suitable for installation in Russian homes, you definitely need to know the air temperature.
The climate class is written in Latin letters. The range of refrigerators suitable for work in Russia, for the most part, have the Latin letter N and are designed to create the necessary conditions for storing food at average air temperatures from 16 to 32 degrees.
Noise level
When buying a kitchen unit, do not forget to inquire about its noise level. After all, the quieter the unit operates, the more comfortable it is to be near it. Imagine, the refrigerator is located behind the wall of your bedroom and at night it hums like a Boeing taking off, creating discomfort, so try to choose a refrigerator with a minimum noise level.
Energy consumption
The indicator characterizes the electricity consumption of the refrigerator model you have chosen.
The energy consumption class is indicated on the refrigerator sticker, and can also be found in the instructions for the refrigerator. It is laid out with a range from A to G, where:
- from A to C – energy consumption – economical;
- D—intermediate value;
- from E to G - electricity consumption is high.
When purchasing the model you choose, be sure to find out the electricity consumption class. This is necessary so that the refrigerator pleases you and does not bring financial expenses.
Autonomous cold storage
One of the main technical characteristics of refrigerators. Storage time for food in the refrigerator when the power is turned off. This value is given in hours and ranges from 0 to 30 hours.
This function is convenient for those customers whose lights often go out in apartments and private houses.
Indication (presence of an open door indicator in the refrigerator)
If your future refrigerator is equipped with open door indicators, as well as an indicator showing the temperature in the chambers, this is very convenient for the owner.
You have not closed the refrigerator door tightly, after a few seconds a beep will alert you.
Thanks to the temperature indicator, you are always aware of the temperature automatically maintained in the chambers; in case of a sharp increase, you will be warned by an audible signal.
Additional shelves and forms: tempered glass shelves
Some Samsung refrigerators have additional shelves, for example, hanging containers for storing eggs, shelves for storing bottles in a horizontal position, and molds for freezing ice.
When choosing a refrigerator for yourself, be sure to pay attention to what the shelves that come with it are made of. The latest models of refrigerators often require shelves made of tempered glass; they require minimal maintenance; shelves made of plastic and metal are also available for sale.
Plastic shelves are very unreliable, they bend under weight and can crack, but they reduce the price of the refrigerator.
Metal shelves are convenient and practical, but they increase the cost of the refrigerator.
"Fresh Zone"
Recently, buyers have paid close attention to the presence of a chamber called the “freshness zone”, where the temperature is constantly maintained from -1 ºС to + 3 ºС. This temperature does not allow harmful microbes to multiply.
In this area it is proposed to store fresh meat products, fish, herbs, sausages, and fresh fruits. Shelf life depends on the freshness and tightness of the packaging of the products you purchased. The duration of freshness of products in this zone increases several times
Let’s compare: in a regular refrigerator, fresh or chilled meat, fish and dairy products are stored for 24 hours, and in the “fresh zone” they will remain in their marketable condition for 5 days. Cheeses and sausages, their shelf life increases. Vegetables and herbs stored in a zero zone with high humidity retain their quality for almost 4 times longer. Raspberries and strawberries can be stored for at least a week.
To increase the shelf life of food, refrigerator manufacturers have equipped the “freshness zone” with a separate fan.
Air circulation
There are the following methods of air circulation in the refrigerator created by the built-in fan:
with natural circulation: With natural air circulation, each refrigerator chamber is cooled by a separate evaporator. Prevents food in the refrigerator from drying out quickly.
with forced circulation: With forced air circulation, the air is absorbed by the fan through the evaporator. Forced air circulation helps maintain the same temperature on all internal surfaces of the refrigerator. Such refrigerators are designated by the term No frost , due to the absence of freezing of the walls.
Reversible doors
If in the refrigerator you have chosen, the door does not open in the direction you want, but it is planned to be able to hang the door, do not hesitate, but buy the model you like, since you can hang it in any direction. The procedure for re-hanging the door can be done independently with a little skill.

Popular myths about the Samsung refrigerator
1. People think that refrigerators with two compressors are twice as noisy. This hypothesis is baseless. The noise level of any model is indicated in the instructions and the number of compressor units has nothing to do with it.
2. Modern No Frost system - promotes rapid drying of products, high energy consumption and noise levels. This is incorrect information, since drying out food is typical for any refrigerator, so we recommend storing food in packaging. The noise level and energy consumption do not depend on No Frost, but are provided for by the technical indicators of the proposed model.
3. Refrigerators with metal shelves can withstand more weight than glass ones. We want to dispel it, tempered glass shelves have the same strength, but they are cheaper.

Setting the knob to 1 in the cold direction will slightly lower the temperature in the refrigerator, while setting the knob to 1 in the warm direction will slightly increase the temperature.
- According to the measured temperature in the refrigerator, move the control by 1 to the “warmer” or “cooler” side. After 5-8 hours, check the temperature again to see if the adjustment has affected the temperature change. If you do not notice enough change, turn the dial to the next number.
- Continue turning the dial and measuring the temperature until you reach the desired temperature inside the refrigerator.
- Make a mark on the control to indicate the ideal setting. If the control moves to the side, you will know how to return it to the desired value.
Adjusting the temperature in a Samsung refrigerator using a switch
- Locate the sliding switch on your refrigerator. There may be a series of numbers at the top or bottom of the switch. Most often, "1" means the coldest setting, while a higher number means warmer settings.
- Move the switch to the left of 1 if you want to reduce the refrigerator temperature. Or move the switch to the right if the refrigerator temperature is too low.
- Measure the temperature after 5-8 hours. If you get the desired temperature inside the refrigerator, then the switch is placed correctly. If the temperature is still not what you want, move the switch an additional notch to the right or left until you get the temperature inside the refrigerator to the desired temperature.
- Use a marker to mark the ideal position of the switch on the wall of the refrigerator. You will always know where to move the switch if it moves out of place.
Adjusting the temperature in a Samsung refrigerator using the numeric keypad
- Find the digital temperature indicator on your refrigerator. The digital indicator is usually located on the top of the refrigerator, just below the freezer.
- Use the arrows to adjust the temperature until it is between 2 and 4 degrees Celsius. If you have a keypad, then simply enter your desired temperature.
- After 5-8 hours, use a thermometer to measure the temperature inside the refrigerator to ensure it is at the correct temperature.
