Features Should be the Expectation not the Exception
Many of the built-in refrigerators currently in homes across America were designed for
storage capacity more than they were designed for ease of use and functionality.
If you want a lot of room for storage, they may be the right choice for you. If you want the
same features that are available with even modestly priced refrigerators, you need to look
away from them and towards a built-in system designed by a company who understands
consumer expectations and convenience.
Some of the common expectations for a refrigerator include spill-proof shelves, adjustable
door storage and ample lighting. Some customers want through the door ice and water
dispensing.
These types of features are incorporated into the built-in refrigeration products as well as
some less common features.
Not only is illumination ample, it is exceptional. There are six lamps in the fresh food
compartment alone. Four at the top and one behind each FoodSaver™ drawer. This will put
an end to the search for something in the dark rear corners of a refrigerator compartment.
While not often thought of, it is not unreasonable to expect a crisper drawer to hold a head
of lettuce. While this may not be possible in some of the competition’s crisper drawers, most
average heads of lettuce will fit just fine in the FoodSaver drawers. In fact you should be
able to fit in three or four heads with a bag of carrots, radishes and some green onions. Who
needs salad in a bag when it all fits just fine in the FoodSaver drawer and with the superior
storage performance, it will still be fresh when you need it.
A deli tray that keeps a hold of the contents might seem like a prerequisite for a drawer. We
have come to expect that a deli drawer is made of plastic and will contain any minor leakage
that may occur. One of the last things someone wants is meat juices dripping from the deli
drawer onto other products in the cabinet.
Some manufacturers think that a wire basket will do the job just fine. In reality the contents
are exposed to too much air and the contents dry out. If something were to leak, the
leakage is destined to make a mess elsewhere. The Dacor Built-in Refrigerators include
plastic Food Storage drawers. Wide drawers with room for lots of deli products. Wide drawers
that allow you to easily see the contents. To top it off, if one Food Storage drawer isn’t
enough, you can get two.
Meeting the Expectation of a Tall Cool Drink of Water
A feature more commonly found on current refrigeration products is through the door ice and
water dispensing. The Dacor Built-in Refrigerators offer this feature. The user has the choice
of water, cubed ice or crushed ice.
All of the water is filtered before going to the dispenser or the icemaker. Like any type of
water filter, the filter cartridge needs to be replaced on a regular basis. The control system
monitors the amount of water flowing through the filter and recommends when it is time to
order a new cartridge on the control panel. The cartridge itself is mounted in the equipment
compartment on top. By placing the filter above the cabinet, valuable storage space isn’t
used in the fresh food compartment for the filter.
If a customer already has a reverse osmosis system for filtering their drinking water, the
lower pressure often present with this type of system could cause slow dispensing or hollow
ice cubes. Since the reverse osmosis system is a better filter than the cartridge filter, a
bypass cap is provided to eliminate the cartridge altogether. This bypass cap could improve
the dispensing speed and help to reduce the hollow ice cube complaint. For the customer
who wants to reduce the number of times the cabinet door is opened to retrieve chilled
water of ice cubes this dispenser will meet their expectations. For the customer with no
desire for a dispenser, the product is available without the dispenser and the customer can
choose whether they want a built-in icemaker by choosing the right combination of shelves
for their needs.
