Whirlpool is now a global manufacturer of house hold appliances such as washing machines, refrigeration, tumble dryers, dishwasher, air conditioners and microwave ovens.

As all the fridge freezers on the market at the minute Whirlpool has a little gem which makes their fridge freezers different from the rest. Whirlpool has decided to use 6^th Sense Technology – this is a cutting edge feature which gives your fridge freezer a mind of its own. The way it works is simple; the technology detects when there is a difference in temperature in certain areas in the fridge. When the area has been established the chilled air is then directed to the affected area and makes sure that the levels are correct.

In cooperation with Microban Whirlpool and incorporated the Anti-bacterial filter into their products. This stops the horrible odours that you get from the bacteria in fridges and purifies the air which is circulating round.

Another innovative design is the Easy Twist Ice and Storage, this has been taken on board by a lot of manufacturers because it saves using ice trays, ice bags and getting your hands all cold. This is an effortless way to get ice, you put cold water into the storage and the ice cubes form, once this is done you twist the knob and the ice is released.

Cooler compartments are becoming very popular also because it is specifically intended for meat and fish to keep it fresh for longer. These are important produce that cannot be at the wrong temperature.

Another great concept is the Pizza balconies these are the best way to store that Friday night pizza or ready meals. The balcony is a part in the door which can sit a pizza upright, this can then make sure that it does not take up any room in the main freezer compartment.
