Manual of product RT 242 203
Editorial note
The Gaggenau RT 242 203 refrigerator stands out with a modern and elegant design, featuring a white finish that harmoniously integrates into any contemporary kitchen. Its net capacity of 189 L provides sufficient space for daily food and beverage storage needs. Additionally, its practical features, such as automatic defrosting and open door alarms, enhance the user experience, appreciated for its ergonomics and quiet operation at 38 dB. However, this model has some limitations. The lack of No Frost technology requires manual defrosting, which can be tedious for the user. Furthermore, the freezer capacity of 15 L may prove insufficient for large families or consumers buying in bulk. The absence of a multi-airflow system may also affect food preservation, leading to temperature variations inside. Regarding value for money, although the high price may be a barrier for some budgets, the reputation of the Gaggenau brand and the quality of manufacturing partly justify this investment. Finally, the available user manual makes it easy to use, but the lack of a door panel limits customization options. Overall, the Gaggenau RT 242 203 offers a positive user experience with an attractive design and practical features, while being sensitive to certain shortcomings in performance and capacity.Score details
