"This is what winners look like" is the conclusion for the Liebherr test winners. In its current edition of test magazine (03/2018) Stiftung Warentest confirms the superb performance of the Liebherr fridge/freezer combinations. The power consumption, handling, temperature stability during storage, cooling and freezing, troubleshooting, as well as the noises and vibrations, were considered as important assessment criteria.
As an expert on fridge and freezer units, Liebherr-Hausgeräte once again comes out top this year. In the freestanding appliances category, the fridge/freezer combination CN(ef) 4315 took first place with the top mark 1.6. Besides the very high energy efficiency of the appliances, the testers also highlighted the low noise levels and vibrations.
In the case of the fridge/freezer combination CNP(el) 4813, which was awarded the "good" quality seal in the freestanding appliances category, the reliability of the operation also at higher ambient temperatures was impressive. With a "very good" mark in temperature stability, the CNP(el) 4813 proved itself as a first-class appliance in the current test. It is also energy-efficient and offers the customer comfortable handling.
The results from the German consumer watchdog Stiftung Warentest have been an important purchase criterion for customers for over 50 years.

Liebherr is increasing the overall service life of its Fibre ropes from 14 to 16 years, with the decisive period of use rising to up to 12 years. This is based on multi-year ageing trials on test rigs and analyses of ropes already in field. The new ruling applies automatically to all new ropes and those already in the field. This step forms part of Liebherr's ongoing path towards establishing Fibre technology as the new standard in the tower crane market.
