How to Choose Between a Single Door Refrigerator and a Double Door Refrigerator

If you’re going to eat it later, keep it in the refrigerator. If this marvelous creation called the refrigerator wasn't invented, scorching heat and humidity of our nation would spoil our eatables very soon. Refrigerators have seen a great deal of evolution over time. However, with more options, comes the burden of choosing the one that best suits our needs. The first parameter that one may consider is the number of doors. Here's a look at how you can choose between a single door and a double door Godrej refrigerator.

Capacity

Single door refrigerators have just one door for the fridge and the freezer. It has a capacity of 50 to 250 litres. On the other hand, double door refrigerators are available with capacity between 235 litres to 495 litres.

Size of Family

It’s a time for compactness; and we tend to not like oversized and bulky things. The same goes for the size of refrigerator. Single door refrigerators are perfect for a small family of one to three members and double door refrigerators are perfect for families that have three to five members. You can choose the capacity of the fridge as per the family members.

Cooling Technique

There is the direct cool technology with natural convection installed in the single door refrigerator, whereas the double door refrigerator comes frost free with electric fans. Double door refrigerators use more power, while the one door option lets physics play its part and lowers power consumption.

Space Consumption

Space management in modern homes can be an issue, especially if you live in a city. A single door refrigerator occupies less space, whereas double door fridges can be quite large. You may consider placing the smaller fridge inside your kitchen, but even larger houses may not have kitchens that can accommodate a bigger fridge. Double door refrigerators are typically installed in the dinning area.

Power Consumption

In a single door refrigerator, you need to open the main door and then the freezer door to access the freezer. Because of the constant opening and closing of the door, the temperature of the whole fridge rises. Much power is needed to cool the fridge back again. On the other hand, a double door refrigerator consumes much less energy to remain cool, as the freezer door is separate. Overall, single door refrigerators are smaller and consume less power than double door ones.

Shelf Space

Single door refrigerators have less shelves and less space on every shelf. So, bigger vessels or beverage bottles can't be easily accommodated. Double floor refrigerators have more space on shelves. Some have customized separates for eggs, butter, larger water bottles and smaller sauce bottles.

Usually ice needs to be cleaned manually in single door refrigerators. Double door refrigerators come with a built-in defrost option.

Both single and door refrigerators are great choices, especially if you’re buying a Godrej refrigerator from the Bajaj Finserv EMI Store, which offers easy finance options. Don’t forget to check the amazing deals and discounts. You’re sure to find a fridge with the latest technology and aesthetics within your budget.
