Clare, Axminster
Score 8.0/10+ Good size fridge space, some nice storage features.
- Freezer small but that was the compromise on the height. Might have been better with a basket so items don't get lost at the back!

Score 5.0/10+ It will fit into narrow spaces and therefore is ideal for small kitchens.
- It is not big enough for a family appliance, maybe a family of two.

Score 9.0/10+ Early days but 'it does what it says on the tin'
- Too many plastic attachments inside which we have discarded.

Anonymous verified purchaser , “Basic user”
Score 9.0/10+ The size of the fridge and freezer compartments - both absolute and realtive (to each other): I like a large fridge and a small freezer copartment. The number of shelves. The bottle holder. Rating of the freezer compartment.
- I would prefer the freezer compartment to be on the bottom as this is used less often than the bottom of the fridge.
