If you are looking for a top of the line refrigerator of the highest range to complete your kitchen arrangement, I highly suggest paying attention to Sub-Zero’s surprising Pro 48 model. Available with or without a glassed-in door, this model should first charm you by its sophisticated estheticism and then by giving you a very good conscience energetically.
Actually, despite its 800lbs of muscular stainless steel, this giant turns out to be a very respectful little being for energetic consumption. According to the manufacturer, this refrigerator uses about 689kWh per year. In other words, in terms of cost, that translates to an amount of $63 (based on a price of 9.06 cents per kilowatt/hour). These energy savings are made possible thanks to a few small and intelligent details added to its design, such as high efficiency LED light bulbs, independent isolated refrigerating environments, an extinction mode for prolonged absence periods and parts built to last.
Firstly, the usage of high energetic efficiency LED light bulbs has the advantage of using about 90% less electricity than conventional light bulbs. Let’s not forget that they also last up to seven times longer and they don’t alter the regulated temperature in the refrigerator. Moreover, they give a chic and modern look to your kitchen.

Then, thanks to its two side-by-side French door compartments, added of four independent conditioning drawers, this refrigerator adjusts the temperature to answer the whims of all the various food types. The ambient temperature of each compartment is clearly determined by a small screen placed on the face of the appliance, which is very reassuring and makes the setting very easy. 
This compartmented way of making appliances is increasingly trendy in the refrigeration domain. The reason for it is quite simple: it’s a way of limiting the futile door openings, thus giving a maximal freshness and temperature constancy to food. It is also with the same idea in mind that Sub-Zero has equipped its vegetable compartment with an isolated glassed sliding door. So you can choose the vegetables you need for your favorite recipe without letting the cold air get out for too long.
For the families who often leave the house to spend time at the cottage, you will be glad to hear that this model is equipped with a special function for vacations. This function regroups the reduced amount of foods in your appliance during this period, inside of a same compartment. This gives you the opportunity of turning the other sections off during a weekend or even for longer without any danger for your food. As it has been proved that an empty refrigerator uses more energy than an adequately filled one, this represents nice savings!
This refrigerator certainly represents an important investment but if you analyze its conception a little closer, you will notice that all its elements are assembled in order to make sure it lasts long. Starting with its simple lines without too much audacity, a neutral style doesn’t risk getting out-dated too quickly and has many more chances of adapting with all the ages of your kitchen. 
Then, you just have to open the doors to see that its drawers and its interior are made out of stainless steel. Resistant against stains and scratches, these elements will stay intact for years. Moreover, you will notice the presence of discreet sliding doors under each shelf that make the arrangement configurations very numerous. The only thing left to do is to get a good use out of it!
Not only this refrigerator will please your eyes but will also save you money due to its low energy consumption for years to come, the Sub Zero Pro 48 really is a model that’s just waiting to be discovered.
