Manual of product 3KFE763WI
Editorial note
The Balay 3KFE763WI refrigerator stands out for its modern and elegant white design, which harmoniously fits into various spaces. With reversible doors and LED interior lighting, it facilitates daily use while providing optimal visibility of stored food. Its net capacity of 279 L for the refrigerator and 89 L for the freezer is sufficient to meet the needs of families, while the humidifier function helps preserve the freshness of food. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The absence of a multi-airflow system may limit air circulation and, consequently, cooling efficiency. Additionally, the freezer requires manual defrosting, which can be cumbersome for some users. The energy efficiency class E is also a concern, as it may lead to higher electricity costs compared to other more energy-efficient models. Finally, the weight of the refrigerator, at 73.986 kg, can complicate its installation and movement. In terms of performance, the Balay 3KFE763WI receives satisfactory scores, particularly for its design (90) and features (88). The user experience is generally positive with a score of 85, while ease of use is also appreciated (82). However, the lack of a failure alarm is a weak point, as is the need for manual defrosting for the freezer, which impacts the product's repairability (70). Overall, the Balay 3KFE763WI is a good choice for those looking for a refrigerator that combines modern design and practical features, although some drawbacks related to its use and energy efficiency should be taken into account.Score details
