+ Safety glass shelves, compact design, easy access, freezer compartment, plenty bottle space, clear vision of contents, not too heavy to move for cleaning.

- Freezer compartment and tray very flimsy material.

- noisy. door magnet cuses the fridge to pull out. crisper too small to house a lettuce. has already frozen up at recommended setting. lower door shelf needs two hands to place a milk container due to an unfixed retainer.
Makes my previous model seem like a rolls royce. Totally aunsatisfatory purcchase.

- FREEZER COMPARTMENT VERY, VERY FLIMSY AND SHODDY. THE DRIP TRAY WILL BE FORTUNATE TO LAST A YEAR - IT BENDS LIKE THIN CARDBOARD AND THE WATER RUNS EVERYWHERE WHEN YOU TRY TO EMPTY IT AFTER DEFROSTING

Score 5.0/10

+ I bought this product as a cheap second fridge to use for drinks and 'overspill' when entertaining, It is certainly value for money and serves this purpose perfectly - the size is just right. i bought this model for the price and energy rating

- the ice box doesn't keep things frozen very well and ices up quite quickly. Some of the door shelving is not very secure. I wouldn't recommend it as a main fridge

+ We were looking for a small fridge as space was a disadvantage. I was surprised that it held more than anticipated.

- None really. Took out the salad drawers to give us more room to hold bottles.

Richard, Neston, Nr Bath , “Gadget lover”

Score 9.0/10

+ Clean lines, well constructed, LH or RH door opening easy to sort, lightweight, really good for a couple or single person as it is smaller than usual in its overall size compared to conventional size fridges but still delivers good capacity, does tall bottles well in the main compartment and has a clear freezer compartment lid so you can see the contents without opening the freezer up, this also allows you to check for icing really easily.

- Looks a bit odd when you stack it on top of a conventionally sized freezer but hardly a major issue. The single opening door has a lower shelf for milk cartons etc but is let down by the retainer bar which rotates and falls down when you remove the container. Every time you place a single carton or milk bottle in the door, you have to lift the bar which is frustrating - again, not the end of the world.
