Ian, Nth Wales

Score 9.0/10

+ Good layout on the fridge side, with good lighting. Nice design, with the doors hiding the top hinges.
Nice easy controls for the ice and water dispenser.

- The shelves in the freezer side, not the best idea, as things slide off unless they are in flat boxes, would have been better with baskets.

Score 9.0/10

+ Excellent product and modern design. Exactly the same spec/design as the siemens model (only difference is the logo and the handle design)

- Make sure that the machine will fit through your doors !! The width and depth of this product means that it is unlikely to fit through most standard kitchen doors or internal house doors so check your dimensions.

+ It's just what i wanted and it fits in just in the right place in the kitchen. The freezer has enough space and I am pleased with the ice and cold water.

+ All round, Very good. a little plain inside but outside it is very stylish. very functional and practical.

Achala, Washington, Tyne&Wear

Score 10.0/10

+ Absolutely majestic in appearance its caught the attention of all our guests who have seen it. Its got huge capacity and the chilled water/icecubes have made us all drink more water daily.

- There isn't any but just that the shiny black exterior needs regular dusting as it seems to attract dust quite quickly.

These tell you how long you can store food for – with 1 star you can store food for up to a week and with 4 stars, you can freeze food for up to a year.

Ice-Cube Dispenser	Yes
Get instant ice cubes at the touch of a button.
Water Dispenser	Yes
Get cool water at the touch of a button. Great in summer but the device needs to be plumbed into the mains. Water dispensers also tend to take up quite a bit of space and have a filter that needs changing regularly.
