The trend for a healthy lifestyle does not lose popularity. And this is not just fashion: most progressive-minded people understand that the quality of life depends, among other things, on the attitude to one’s health.
Fortunately, eating right is not a problem today: most products, including fresh vegetables and herbs, can be bought in supermarkets or ordered from delivery services.
True, there is a nuance: everything bought still needs to be stored and cooked properly. And here, modern household appliances come to the rescue, with new functions and technologies appearing regularly. They make storing and cooking dishes as efficient as possible for proper nutrition and a healthy lifestyle.
It is best to evaluate these capabilities using specific examples to build our educational program based on advanced models of kitchen appliances from the world-famous Hisense brand.
Refrigerator Hisense
In short, this is a modern three-chamber refrigerator with a total useful volume of 544 liters and a Total no-frost system, eliminating frequent defrosting. But it also has technologies that can surprise you.
Fast freezing and cooling
When we load products into the refrigerator or freezer compartments, time passes before their temperature drops from room temperature to the temperature required for storage. We are not talking about minutes but about hours. To speed up this process, manufacturers use special modes. For example, Hisense has them called Super Cool for the refrigerator compartment and Super Freeze for the freezer compartment. The faster the products cool, the more useful substances remain, and the longer they can be stored.
Universal storage area
Sometimes, you would like a larger freezer, for example, if you freeze your garden harvest or just buy some meat. And sometimes there is not enough refrigeration, say, if you have to prepare many snacks for a reception.
The Hisense is good because one of its chambers is universal and can maintain temperatures from -18 to +5 °C. It can be used as a freezer or refrigerator to store strong-smelling products. And then fresh cottage cheese will not smell like the catch you just brought back from fishing.
Monitoring usage
And again about the correct storage temperature. Imagine: in the morning, all family members are getting ready for work or school. At this time, they often open the refrigerator door and let warm air in. Only after some time does the temperature in the compartment drop to the required level again.
Hisense has thought about this operating feature. The model can analyze the door opening time. If it does not change much daily, the refrigerator lowers the temperature in the compartments in advance by the required time. This way, it is possible to maintain it optimally even with frequent door openings.
Interactive Features
Technology is becoming “smart,” and refrigerators are no exception. Hisense has a Wi-Fi module and works via the ConnectLife mobile application. It allows you to control the temperature in different compartments and run diagnostics if something is wrong with the refrigerator.
However, interactive technologies have other uses, too. For example, you can make a shopping list on the large screen of your refrigerator—it will be displayed in your app. It’s easy to assign a shelf life to all the products inside. When the shelf life is about to expire, the device will send you a notification.
Electronic recipe book
Hisense is not just a refrigerator but also a generator of ideas. If you do not know what to cook, you can always open the built-in recipe book, which contains 151 dish options, right on the big screen.
Ice dispenser
Ice is used not only to cool drinks but also for various preparations. To get it, you usually pour water into molds and put them in the freezer. But with Hisense, everything is simpler: a dispenser is built into the refrigerator door, capable of producing up to 2.2 kg of ice in half a day. Just press a button, and the cubes will pour into the glass. You don’t even have to open the device.
Hob Hisense
Induction hobs are one of the most progressive types of kitchen surfaces. Hisense works exactly on this principle and has convenient touch control, but the set of interesting functions is not limited to this.
Automatic hobs linking
Sometimes, cooking in non-standard cookware, such as steaks in a long rectangular frying pan or poultry in a duck pan, is necessary. In such cases, advanced devices provide for unifying adjacent heating zones.
Hisense went even further: the model automatically detects larger cookware and, if necessary, combines two vertically adjacent burners. Due to the very close location of the induction elements, the dish is cooked evenly at the desired temperature.
Programs for different cases
Experienced housewives know at what temperature to melt butter or what power to set so that the dish “comes to life.” But sometimes, they make mistakes. The preset modes in Hisense are guaranteed to be accurate. Although they solve completely different problems, they are united by the common name Smart Cooking.
- Gentle Melt mode – maintains a temperature of 42°C, ideal for melting butter or chocolate and defrosting food.
- Keep Warm mode keeps the dish hot (70 °C) so that it can be served anytime. This is convenient when you are waiting for late guests or children from school.
- Rapid Boil mode – turns on the most intense heat to quickly boil water or sear a steak.
- The Move Zone function creates a zone with two temperature settings. One part (closer to the user) is used for cooking, and the second (further away) maintains heat so that the dish does not cool down.
- Smart Simmer mode is ideal for stewing as it maintains the temperature just below the boiling point of water.
- Smart Grill mode is useful for steak lovers as it offers four levels of doneness and helps prevent burning.
Hisense Oven
What could be unusual in an oven? In fact, modern technologies are also welcome here. The Hisense model is a step towards professional ovens that chefs use in restaurants.
Fast heating
Almost all recipes begin with the instruction, “Preheat the oven to XX degrees.” Hisense BI65346PDBGWIFI takes a minimum of time: it will heat up to 200 °C in just 5 minutes. This means that the future dish will immediately reach the desired temperature.
Temperature control probe
The ideal way to determine the degree of doneness of meat is to measure the temperature inside it. Special temperature probes are available for this. Hisense has one called a Food Sensor. It connects directly to the oven body and provides important information about the temperature inside the food being cooked.
Healthy Cooking modes
The model has 22 built-in automatic programs and a separate “Meat” mode. Among them, for example, there is an optimal one for preliminary defrosting of products. Another is designed for baking pizza (the temperature reaches 300 °C, so the pizza is baked as quickly as possible). It is not often that ovens have an option to add steam. In Hisense BI65346PDBGWIFI, this mode is called Steam Add Plus. Steam allows you to achieve an appetizing crust on baked goods or when roasting meat.
Pyrolytic cleaning
Let’s face it: sometimes you don’t want to bother with baking because then you’ll have to clean the oven from greasy stains on the walls. But with Hisense BI65346PDBGWIFI, everything is simple: the design of this model greatly simplifies its maintenance. The pyrolytic cleaning system allows the oven to heat up to 500 °C, at which point all dirt simply burns off. All that remains is to wipe the inner surface with a damp cloth when it cools down.
Wi-Fi Control
Hisense BI65346PDBGWIFI can be connected to a smart home system and controlled via the app. This is convenient: for example, you can start heating remotely or download a favorite recipe to the device’s memory. In addition, to change the oven’s operating parameters, you no longer need to go to the kitchen—just open the app.
