Manual of product KIR38A42
Editorial note
The Bosch KIR38A42 refrigerator stands out for its integrated and modern design, allowing for a seamless integration into the kitchen while offering an elegant aesthetic. With a net capacity of 308 L, this model is ideal for standard use, although it may prove insufficient for large families or those who buy in bulk. Its tempered glass shelves add a touch of sturdiness and elegance, while the reversible doors provide appreciated installation flexibility. However, there are some drawbacks to consider. The energy efficiency class A, while satisfactory, is lower than the latest models rated A++ or A+++, which could lead to higher electricity costs in the long run. Additionally, the lack of a door panel limits customization options, and the refrigerator only has a single vegetable drawer, which may not be suitable for users who store a large quantity of fruits and vegetables. The overall performance of the Bosch KIR38A42 is good for standard use, with practical features such as automatic defrosting. However, the integrated design may complicate future repairs or replacements. In summary, while this refrigerator has many advantages, it is essential to consider its limitations, particularly in terms of capacity and energy efficiency, before making a choice.Score details
