Martyn, London Colney

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Attractive design. Ease of use. Just set the desired temperatures and its installed. Large fridge which keeps food fresh for longer than I was used to with my old fridge. Slightly smaller dimensions than some allowed it to fit better in my kitchen. Open door alarm a useful feature.
Bad points:: Freezer smaller than I was used to ( 4 adults in my house) but this does mean that I have to consider what I buy rather than just filling it with food that I may never eat.

Score 10.0/10

Good points:: It's brilliant the amount of food you can get in the fridge and the freezer - particularly the freezer. Previously we had a very small freezer and didn't really use it because of that.
Bad points:: I don't really have any bad points with it, not that I have noticed as yet.
