SubZero refrigerators are about three times as expensive as your average fridge, however
are four main reasons why we think it’s worth
the investment.
Everyday at Designer Appliances, we help customers pick the best appliance for their kitchen and lifestyle.
When it comes to talking about Sub Zero refrigerators, often times we get asked
the question, are they actually worth the price tag?
After all if you're in the middle of a kitchen renovation, and your'e trying to stick to a budget,
are there other high end finishes that might be a better investment.
The answer to that is, when you purchase a Sub-Zero you’re not just buying a refrigerator,
you’re investing in a long term lifestyle for the heart of your home.
It’s where your homegrown, freshly picked strawberries and lettuce are
stored.
It’s where you keep ingredients for that homemade dinner recipe your friends
and family love.
As long as there is Sub- Zero, your food's goodness will stand the
test of time, as will the beauty and performance of your kitchen.
So there are many reasons why we believe these units are worth the price, but here are
the four heavy hitters: food preservation, quality and longevity, design flexibility
and home resale value.
First, lets talk about food preservation.
Sub-Zero prides itself on the ability to preserve food far longer than other leading brands.
On average, a family can save $1500 per year on food they didn’t have to throw away due
to the food preservation capabilities of these refrigerators.
In order to keep food fresh, you can’t just keep food cold, you also need
precise control of the temperature, humidity and
also the ability to purify the air in which the food is being stored.
This is made possible due to its patented vacuum door seal, dual refrigeration system
and air purification system.
When closing a SubZero door, all four sides of the unit activate the vacuum seal to
maintain optimal temperatures for storing your groceries or freshly picked produce.
Two separate vacuum systems are also used to control
the refrigerator and freezer separately which allows the separate compartments to
stay at optimal humidity levels and prevent the
dreaded flavor transfer.
SubZero also has a microprocessor controlled system, which means it can hold a
temperature far more consistently than its competitors.
In fact, Sub-Zero maintains a temperature within one degree of the set temperature
at all times.
This is very impressive when you consider that other refrigerators
see temperature swings of up to 14 degrees.
Simply put, consistent temperature will allow your food to stay fresher, longer.
All SubZero refrigerators contain an antimicrobial air purification system that automatically
scrubs the air every 20 minutes.
Many fresh foods emit ethylene gas which causes foods
to spoil.
By filtering out these gases, along with bacteria and mold spores that are found on
many fresh produce, your food will last far longer.
Next, lets talk about quality and longevity.
The quality standards of Subzero is second to none.
Manufactured right here in the USA , Subzero crafts all their products from the
finest materials, testing each unit every step of
the way.
Their products are also designed to last a minimum of 20 years, which is a relief
considering the price tag.
Besides delivering a world class quality product, if something goes wrong, rest assured it
will be taken care of quickly and efficiently.
SubZero has one of the best factory warranties on the market.
Upon purchase, you receive a full two-year warranty which is all inclusive.
You then carry a full five years on the sealed system, which is essentially the heart of
the unit, including compressors, condensers, evaporators,
driers and even tubing.
You then continue to be covered on the sealed system
with a limited 12-year warranty.
Next, is design flexibility.
No other brand offers as many models and configurations as
SubZero.
Basically, there are three types: Built in, integrated or Pro48.
They also sell wine storage and under counter refrigeration.
So, if design and layout are important to you, you won’t be
disappointed with the variety of options available.
And lastly, your home resale value will increase.
Sub-Zero has more brand recognition than any other appliance in the industry.
If a kitchen has Sub-Zero, it will almost always be mentioned
in real-estate listings because that can become a deciding factor on the purchase.
People know that a kitchen can be one of the most expensive renovations of any home so
as soon as they see the name Sub-Zero, they automatically assume quality across the board.
If these four factors resonate with your lifestyle, we think purchasing a Subzero refrigerator
is worth the price tag and you won’t be disappointed.
