Application of modern solutions and technologies

Indesit does not position its equipment as having any innovative solutions, fashion trends or exclusive design. Nevertheless, technologies that have already become classic are present in the functionality of refrigerators and freezers.

There is a temperature gradient in the refrigeration compartments: at the top the air temperature is about 0°C, and at the bottom of the chamber it is about 50°C. Thus, the zones for the best content of different types of products are determined.

Sliding System fastening system allows for the shelves to be pulled forward 7 centimeters. This allows you to find and remove products located at the back wall when the refrigerator is densely filled.

In some models, the shelves can be placed at a height convenient for the consumer, which allows you to easily accommodate a voluminous dish.


There are grooves on the sides of the refrigerator that are intended for installing shelves. This will allow the user to adjust their placement and create zones of the desired height

Total no Frost technology is supported by some models, which eliminates the need for manual defrosting.

Low Frost system is simpler and less energy-intensive. It significantly slows down the growth of frost on the walls of the chamber, which reduces the frequency of defrosting of the refrigerator.

Some models are equipped with mechanical controls, and some with touch controls. In both cases, the functions of enabling rapid temperature reduction modes in the refrigerator ( Push & Cool ) and freezer ( Push & Freeze ) compartments are available.


The company produces refrigerators with both electromechanical and electronic control types. The second is more convenient to use, but more sensitive to moisture and violations of the rules of use

The system for changing the position of the shelves on the MySpace allows you to use the chamber space more economically, depending on the geometric parameters of the products often placed there. This design feature is typical only for built-in models.

How to choose a refrigerator? Expert advice + best models of 2021

Basic guidelines for choosing wisely

The list below includes models that are most often found on sale in large stores selling electronics and household appliances, and also have a positive rating based on customer reviews.


Based on the capacity of the refrigerator and freezer compartments, you can choose a model that will suit a family of up to five people. If you need to store more products, it is sometimes better to purchase two separate refrigerators rather than one large one.

Among devices with a classic bottom freezer position, the following models are leaders in their volume segments:

  1. Height 167 cm . Total no Frost function for both compartments, energy consumption class “A”.
  2. Height 185 cm . Model EF 18 – parameters are completely similar to the previous model.
  3. Height 200 cm . Model ES 20: mechanical control, automatic defrosting of the refrigerator and manual defrosting of the freezer are implemented. Energy class “B”.

Thus, it can be stated that the simplest, cheapest models are the most popular.

Among low-size countertop refrigerators, the most commonly sold model is the TT 85 in teak. The control is mechanical, the chamber defrosting system is automatic. Energy class “B”.


Refrigerators with a bottom-mounted freezer receive far fewer complaints than units with a top-mounted freezer, so it’s better to prefer this option

Top freezer refrigerators from Indesit receive a lot of negative reviews. The only model that has surpassed the mark of 4 points out of 5 is ST 167. This is also a simple device with mechanical control, energy consumption class “B” and the absence of the Total no Frost function.

Freezers from Indesit are also in demand. Model SFR 100 with mechanical control and energy class “B”, as well as freezers SFR 167 NF C with three drawers and four compartments, touch screen control and energy class “C”.
