Toshiba refrigerators have been known for a long time in Russia . The technology of this brand has its admirers and connoisseurs. Every year there are more and more of them. The famous corporation from Japan asks for a rather high price for its products, but at the same time offers the highest quality products made using the most advanced technologies.
It is worth remembering that the history of the brand began with the production of refrigerators and equipment for them. Toshiba Corporation in 2011 proposed to the Russian buyer ten models of refrigerators (freestanding). All of them are combined, eight of them are Top Mount form factors widespread in Asia, which have a freezer compartment at the top, and two models are multi-door (as they are called in the company). This was rather risky, since models with an upper freezer are not very popular in Russia.
Hybrid Plasma System
One of the key developments of the company, experts consider Hybrid Plasma - a system of destruction of ionization and bacteria. It is designed to preserve clean air in the refrigerator, the decomposition of ethylene, which greatly accelerates the spoilage of fruits and vegetables.
Obvious traces of such a gas effect on the products were observed by almost all housewives. The vegetables frown, blacken, the peel crack. Hybrid Plasma breaks down ethylene into water and carbon dioxide. The ions (negatively charged) that are generated by the system completely destroy the bacteria.
The Cool Air Wrap system simultaneously creates a stream of purified air that cleans the refrigerator of odors. All this allows the products to stay fresh much longer than in conventional units.
LED lighting
Toshiba refrigerators have long had no incandescent lamps, which many companies continue to use for lighting. As it turned out, they do not consume as much energy as they seem and emit heat that is unnecessary for technology. Toshiba engineers and designers in their mechanisms replaced them with LED lighting. It does not produce heat and consumes dozens of times less energy than traditional light bulbs.
In addition, the corporation specialists found another original solution. They found it possible to combine LED innovation with UV Fresh Guard - a system located in the freshness zone. Its ultraviolet light emitting diodes destroy up to ninety-five percent of bacteria in fish and meat products, allowing them to retain their beneficial properties for much longer than in conventional refrigerators.
All Toshiba refrigerators have a No Frost system that cools without frost and does not require defrosting. Even the most powerful and largest Toshiba refrigerators have a low noise level (42 dB). This is a very good indicator. It is somewhat alarming that Toshiba refrigerators belong only to climate class N, which involves the operation of this equipment at a temperature not exceeding + 32 ° C. This looks like an anachronism, given that many manufacturers produce their products in two, and often four classes.
If this is important for any of our readers, we are reporting that Top Mount is being sold in our country, which are assembled in Thailand, and Toshiba multi-door refrigerators are brought to us from China.
The company divides its refrigerators into three categories - medium, large and “glass”. Let's get acquainted with some models in more detail.
Toshiba refrigerator GR-R47TR
The Japanese corporation classifies this model as medium in volume. Nevertheless, this "average" has a volume of 446 liters. Refrigerators in this category have an unusual depth for us (72 cm), and the GR-R59TR has a width of 66 cm (height 175 cm). These refrigerators have a catchy design. It can be called strict, made in the classical style. A special detail of the design is the massive-looking, characteristic of Toshiba devices, as if handles are soldered along the entire length to the doors. They are a small drawback of the refrigerator - they can not be hung on the other side. These models are available in three colors - golden, golden champagne and silver.
Multi-door refrigerators
Consider two models that are completely different from the previous ones. We have already said that in the corporation they are called multi-door. This word can combine model data. Since the Toshiba refrigerator GR-L42FR belongs to the French Door form factor, but the GR-L40R accessory is difficult to formulate. He almost completely copies the original futuristic design of his brother, but at the same time six centimeters deeper, and the main compartment is closed with an ordinary door, and not with two oar.
Both refrigerators are non-standard and interesting for their original layout. The dimensions of these machines are very impressive, which is typical for all Toshiba equipment. The total volume of 300 liters. The Toshiba refrigerator GR-L40R has five doors and drawers, and GR-L42R has six. There are much fewer color solutions - golden steel.
The Toshiba 5-chamber refrigerator (like its 6-chamber counterpart) has two very spacious refrigerators. The first (volume 224 l) at the top, small (77 l) is for vegetables, located between two compartments - the lower 81 l and the upper 17 l (for fish and meat). Next to it is another compartment - for ice (14 l). It is filled with an automatic ice machine.
Toshiba refrigerator GR-D62FR
This model at first sight fascinates with its design. 483 liters of the working volume of the refrigerator are divided into six zones, each of which is equipped with its own door. This creates optimal conditions for storing different products and provides a high level of energy saving. All six cameras operate on a single generator in No Frost mode.
From the foregoing, it can be concluded that Toshiba refrigerators are an unusual and original technique. It is intended for those who love everything technically perfect.
Customer reviews
According to people who already have Toshiba refrigerators, these are very convenient and reliable units. Quite spacious shelves on the doors easily accommodate two-liter water bottles, due to this, shelves are shortened inside the refrigerator. Many are satisfied with the huge capacity and the presence of various compartments that allow you to properly store products.
Buyers note the excellent operation of the freezers and the long warranty period.
