Beko RefrigerationGet to Know Beko
If the name Beko doesn’t ring a bell to you, you’re not alone. Although Beko is widely recognized in European households, it wasn’t until 2016 that the American market got a taste of who this brand is. Beko still has a way to go if it wants to become a top appliance brand in the states, but that’s not a major concern for the group. Instead, Beko has a clear manifesto that is less about consumerism and more about the experience. There are three main pillars Beko focuses on for its appliances:
- AFFORDABILITY → Products from Beko are priced so buyers from low- to mid-end budgets can enjoy its innovations.
- ECO AWARENESS → Beko believes making the lives of its users and the wellbeing of the planet can coexist, which is why appliances from the brand are made with sustainability in mind from the fabrication to the moment they’re used.
- HEALTH → A healthy user is a happy user, so Beko strives to develop groundbreaking features that improve the lives of its consumers.
The complete family of Beko products includes cooking appliances, dishwashers, and laundry appliances. Discover even more about the brand and all its initiatives here.
Beko Refrigerators
No modern home can survive without a refrigerator. Just ask anyone who’s had theirs turn into a lemon. But that doesn’t take away from the fact that refrigerators are one of the biggest energy hogs in the home. So, when buyers realize they can save up to $270 annually by switching to an energy-certified fridge, the dialogue shifts from traditional buying points like capacity and style to “How much energy does this refrigerator use?”
Technically speaking, ENERGY STAR rated refrigerators are required to be between nine and 15 percent more efficient than the federal minimum energy efficiency standard for refrigerators. Beko makes the buying process easy by simply making each one of its refrigerators energy-efficient—complete with the Blue Star logo and all.
In fact, Beko is on a hot streak when it comes to being recognized for its eco-friendly efforts. Recently, Beko was awarded another ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year Sustained Excellence Award, and it’s currently the only brand on the market to achieve the feat consecutively the number of times it currently has.
What Makes Beko Refrigerators So Efficient?
The secret to Beko’s impressive efficiency is smart engineering. In traditional fridges, even if you opened the main compartment for an extended period, the machine would work to cool the entire fridge down—including the freezer. Beko solves that issue by using two evaporators: one dedicated to the freezer and the other to the main refrigerator area. That simple change results in three big payoffs:
✅ Individual evaporators mean each compartment works only when necessary.
✅ Cold air travels a shorter distance with dual compressors, helping to conserve energy.
✅ Beko fridges cool twice as fast compared to traditional refrigerators, essentially cutting energy consumption in half.

Now that you’ve learned why Beko refrigerators are so efficient, let’s take a look at the lineup.
First things first, remember that Beko is a European brand. In other words, appliances made from Beko are a far cry from the large-capacity appliances we’re used over on this side of the pond. We’re talking fridge capacities between 11.4 and 16.4 cubic feet, keeping in mind the general rule is about 4–5 cubic feet of storage per household member. While harder to find, some Beko refrigerators provide over 19 cubic feet of storage, though these models can only be found from select suppliers (like Albert Lee).
Aside from capacity, Beko is just like any other refrigerator manufacturer with popular styles such as French door refrigerators, top and bottom freezer refrigerators, and even built-in refrigerator options. Sizes vary between styles and are available as:
Beko 24” refrigerators–a good choice for single households or smaller kitchens
Beko 27” refrigerators–an affordable upgrade from 24”, offering a little more storage
Beko 28” refrigerators–similar to 27” fridges and also a good alternative if you want to save money but have a 30” refrigerator cutout
Beko 30” refrigerators–for virtually any size kitchen
As we mentioned above, Beko is committed to creating appliances that are accessible to buyers of all backgrounds, which is why Beko refrigerators are reasonably priced between $800 and $3,400.
Best Beko Refrigerator Features
Along with an eco-friendly initiative, Beko refrigerators bring awareness to its #EatLikeAPro campaign, a collaboration with UNICEF to combat world hunger. Food preservation is at the core of every Beko refrigerator, which is why several of the features found on these appliances are exclusive to the line.
Take a look at how Beko deals with energy efficiency and food waste with the following features.
✱ NeoFrost Dual Cooling: Two refrigerator evaporators create isolated climate conditions in the freezer and refrigerator, keeping food fresh at lower energy ratings and virtually no odor transfer.
✱ EverFresh+: A joint feature that also uses Active Fresh Blue Light — a special LED beam that encourages natural photosynthesis — keeping produce fresh for up to 30 days.
✱ IonGuard: Never worry about fresh fish stinking up the refrigerator anymore.
✱ Harvest Fresh: Beko’s newest feature uses three specially designed lights that replicate the sun cycle throughout the day. This helps lock in vitamins and nutrients that can fade in less-than-ideal conditions.

3 Top Beko Refrigerator Reviews
Who knew such a new brand on the market came with so many perks? Let’s take an even deeper look with three energy-efficient Beko refrigerators in three unique styles.
Best Beko Top Freezer Refrigerator: Beko 13.5 Cu. Ft. Stainless Steel Counter Depth Top Freezer Refrigerator
In the words of one product review, this Beko refrigerator has a “Great size, lots of storage options, cools very well.” Sweet and simple, just like its top-freezer design featuring a pocket handle and stainless steel finish ideal for modern homes. Other reviews give this Beko counter depth refrigerator high points for its efficient NeoFrost cooling technology and Active Fresh Blue Light feature that keep food freshly preserved. At 13.5 cubic feet, we don’t recommend this refrigerator for full-size households, but it’s a great (and affordable) refrigerator for coupled households or even as a reliable garage refrigerator.

Best Beko Bottom Freezer Refrigerator: Beko 16.2 Cu. Ft. Fingerprint Free Stainless Steel Freestanding Bottom Freezer Refrigerator
If you want to experience all of Beko’s award winning technology without breaking the bank, consider this bottom freezer model. It comes with a considerable capacity of 16.2 cubic feet, plus EverFresh+, NeoFrost Cooling, and Active Blue Light technology—everything you need to keep your produce tasting fresh.

Best Beko French Door Refrigerator: Beko 19.9 Cu. Ft. Fingerprint-Free Stainless Steel Counter Depth French Door Refrigerator
You can still enjoy style and eco-friendly performance when you store groceries in this Beko French door refrigerator. It features the largest capacity of the lineup at 19.9 cubic feet. That does mean it’s wider than most Beko fridges, measuring 36” wide, which won’t fit some kitchen cutouts. This is also one of Beko’s more expensive refrigerators, but with features like NeoFrost and Active Fresh Blue Light, and a Turbo Ice Maker, we recommend this pick to shoppers who like luxury but are eco-conscious.
Considering refrigerators comprise up to 13 percent of a household’s energy consumption, making the transition to an energy-efficient refrigerator can save you money and the planet at the same time. No other refrigerator brand does energy efficiency like Beko does, and for that reason alone, they’re worth exploring. In the Puget Sound, Beko appliances can exclusively be found at Albert Lee. So, make sure to visit Albert Lee Appliance to discover more about these appliances.
