Multiple reviews mentioned that Grundig GKFI5050 has great user reviews with an average user rating of 90%.
11 Reasons For for Choosing the Grundig GKFI5050
The Grundig GKFI5050 is a 254 total net capacity fridge freezer. That's 4L larger than the Hoover BHBF172UKT (250L), 167L larger than the Igenix IG347FF (87L) and 186L larger than the Magic Chef MCBR240B1 (68L). More ...
'Total Net Capacity' is the total usable (net) capacity of both the fridge & freezer, measured in litres.
A higher capacity means that more food can be stored in the fridge & freezer at a time.
The Grundig GKFI5050 has a noise level of 40 (as does the Hoover BHBF172UKT), but the Igenix IG347FF is a 42dB noise level fridge freezer (2dB louder) and the Russell Hobbs RH55TMFF143B is a 45dB noise level fridge freezer (5dB louder). More ...
The noise level of the fridge-freezer, measured in decibels (dB).
Fewer dB means a quieter fridge-freezer, which means it is less likely to be distracting or annoying as it hums along in the background.
The Grundig GKFI5050 has a holiday function, whereas the Hoover BHBF172UKT, the Igenix IG347FF, the Magic Chef MCBR240B1 and the Russell Hobbs RH55TMFF143B do not have this feature. More ...
A holiday function is a very low power mode that powers the fridge down to almost off and keeps the freezer running as usual, so the device uses far less energy while you're away on holiday and not actively using it. Please be aware that food won't be kept particularly cool and fresh in the fridge, so you'll need to empty it before use.
Turning off your fridge-freezer entirely over a long period can cause unpleasant odours and bacteria to accumulate inside the appliance, and the food in your freezer would defrost and spoil. A very low-power mode keeps the insides cool enough to keep the fridge fresh, but won't use much power, saving you money.
The Grundig GKFI5050 has a Super Cool function, however the Hoover BHBF172UKT, the Igenix IG347FF, the Magic Chef MCBR240B1 and the Russell Hobbs RH55TMFF143B do not. More ...
A 'Super Cool' function is a special mode that temporarily increases the power of the fridge, quickly bringing the temperature down to very low levels.
It is helpful for quickly chilling a lot of food at once, or to re-chill food after a power failure or other problem.
The Grundig GKFI5050 has an anti-bacterial coating, whereas the Hoover BHBF172UKT, the Igenix IG347FF, the Magic Chef MCBR240B1 and the Russell Hobbs RH55TMFF143B do not have this feature. More ...
An anti-bacterial coating is a special covering for the shelves and surfaces in the fridge compartment, which helps kill harmful bacteria that may work its way into the appliance.
An anti-bacterial coating can help prevent harmful bacteria from infecting and causing problems with the food stored in the fridge section.
The Grundig GKFI5050 has an automatic defrost (fridge), and so does the Hoover BHBF172UKT, but the Igenix IG347FF, the Magic Chef MCBR240B1 and the Russell Hobbs RH55TMFF143B do not. More ...
An automatic defrost functionality that periodically activates to remove any ice build up in the fridge.
Ice build up can degrade the efficiency of the fridge, and large amounts of ice may even stop the appliance from working altogether. Automatic defrosting can help prolong the life and efficiency of your appliance.
The Grundig GKFI5050 has a fast freeze function, but the Hoover BHBF172UKT, the Igenix IG347FF, the Magic Chef MCBR240B1 and the Russell Hobbs RH55TMFF143B do not. More ...
The Fast Freeze function is ideal for freezing fresh food straight from your garden or the supermarket. Lowers the temperature of the freezer to freeze any newly added fresh food quickly. This function preserves the flavour, nutritional value and texture of the food, whilst protecting already frozen food.
A fast freeze function is ideal for quickly freezing a large amount of food - it is especially good for preserving the nutrients in fresh vegetables.
Grundig GKFI5050 is 4.25 freezer capacity, but the Hoover BHBF172UKT is only a 3.5kg/24h freezer capacity fridge freezer (0.75kg/24h smaller). More ...
