Beko CDA539F Reviews: Frost Free, Tall, White fridge freezer

+ The two separate salad drawers make it easy to separate food items. The frost free feature is good as so far there has been no build up of frost on either fridge or freezer and the fast freeze compartment is excellent as it freezes food very quickly

+ Spacious, ice drawer

- No handle - you have to open from the bottom of the door

+ the size is perfect for the space in my home i have a very small kitchen and i love the shape but for a small model its amazing how much you can fit in!

+ small size fridge freezer - excellent for a single person

- picture of fridge freezer is deceiving - looks bigger than it is inside. You cannot stand a 2 litre bottle in this fridge - it could fit in the door, but then again, ten litres of liquid plus others hanging on the door hinges cannot be very good for the hinges if you want it to last. This fridge is too small for a family of three.

+ First experience of this brand - and I've not been disappointed. Nice quality and great enery efficiency.

- So far (after 6 months onership) - none.

+ I am very pleased with the fridge freezer it lives up to expectations

+ Good size for the average small kitchen, large enough for family 2 - 4

- Doors are reversible which we had to do and this 'simple' task took much longer and more effort than we anticipated

+ Ideal size for one person or a couple. Attractive design.

- None

+ Because of the reverse position of the (larder) firdge being at the top it is much easier for my elderly parents to 1. See what they have inside. 2. To reach it easily.

- The rear of refridgerators is an open design, various grills, tubes and pipes. Is there no way of covering these in as when being put in position against a wall or skirting board I am fearful of bending or breaking something.

+ Outside dimensions. height was critical.
Frost free.
Interior storage very good,good split between fridge & freezer, ideal for two pensioners.

- Not had it long enough to judge.
Some BEKO products have a poor reputation for reliability.

+ it really suits a family life without a struggle. There is 3 off us in our family and there is loads of space for extras (if needed). Packed lunches etc fit easily too.

+ Balance of freezer space to fridge space is excellent

+ Good priced Frost Free Freezer. No more defrosting. Great!! Very good sized fridge. Plenty of shelves and compartments and the shelves are adjustable.

- Expected the freezer to hold a bit more than it does, but is just about ample for our needs.

+ Ilive on my own and did not want a full sized fridge/freezer .... I also have limited space in my kitchen.. this was one of the few appliances available which would fit in the available space

+ It's a small fridge freezer so obviously capacity is limited. Construction and design appear to be very good. It is too early to know about energy consumption. Noise is not excessive.

- None so far.

+ Good ratio of fridge and freezer capacity - best for a smalller model as most have a huge fridge and a tiny freezer.

+ Looks great, ideal for those kitchens where you cannot fit a taller appliance...
Fairly quiet, ice cube tray...
Frost free

+ Simple, clean design. Good capacity at a good price.

+ Fridge capacity is reasonably good

- Freezer capacity is not proportional to the fridge size, noisy because of the fan in the freezer, if anything is sticking out of the baskets in the freezer it can interfere with the fan & cause lots of noise! The top part of the freezer is not a tray so it's difficult to see what is in the back

+ appearance, built in handles, freezer tray,no frosting

- light in the middle is well sited for illumination but is an obstruction on the top shelf area.

+ frost free freezer means no more defrosting; good capacity of fridge; flexible shelving system in fridge is easy to adapt; ice/soft fruit freezer tray is very handy; quieter than our old fridge-freezer

- overall freezer capacity seems small; size of individual freezer baskets seems small; door of top freezer compartment seems flimsy - not sure how long it'll last

+ Just right for size, design and capacity

- Have not experienced any as yet

+ Neat with clean lines. Quiet. Good capacity for its size. good value.

- Not found any so far!

+ Value for money
Good capacity for size

- Noisy when fan operating
Difficult to reverse doors

+ Fits in the smaller kitchen Ideal for elderly couples. Good value.

- Unable to stand tall items on inner shelves,and fan can be noisy at times

+ Small, compact, and self defrosting freezer. easy to move, reversable doors

- Doors open wrong way for me had to change them around.
Bottom drawer in freezer compartment could be a bit biggerin depth?

+ very pleased with appearance and frost free feature

- took us 3 hours to change door hanging

+ efficient,designed well.

- I would have preferred larger freezer to fridge.

+ Good design, frost free.

- Have to place bottles (1.5L Evian) at 45degree agle to shut the door.

+ It works!

- Could do with a more versatile shelving system.

+ Nice lookin but a litlle small

- Reviewer left no comment

+ I like the size and the quietness whilst running.

- Not enough space options between the shelves for storing tall items occasionally.

+ Quick freezing performance

- Noisy compressor

+ Deep vegetable drawers

- Door shevles too narrow
Thermostat in middle of ceiling

+ Good storage, easy to access

- Reviewer left no comment

+ Attractive appearance with no sharp corners

- Light takes up to much space

+ It's a small well designed fridge-freezer that's suitable especially where space is ata premium.

- Freezer space is limited, so if you are a fatty who eats alot of chips and other freezer food then that will be an issue.

+ Very quiet, large fridge and looks good

- No bad points

+ All shelves in the fridge can be changed around so you can customise it the way you want. Easy to clean because of this and is very quiet compared to my last one..The ice tray gives you valuable freezer space.

- Freezer still a little small but it uses the space well.

+ Love the ice tray compartment in the freezer

- Fridge part could have a shelf to store tall items other than using the door

+ Plenty of space, very effecient and energy saving. Good quality product.

- Nothing to note.

+ It "ticked all the boxes". Compact design with all the features looked for in a frost free fridge freezer. Good value for money.

- Handles would have been preferred for ease of opening.

+ As small as this appliance mayu seem it actually has plenty of room. it is a nice size and very enery efficient.

- Reviewer left no comment

+ Looks good, plenty of room inside both the fridge and the freezer

- None

+ Just the size for the available space
Easily manoeuverable

- None yet

+ I feel the product was good and value for money

- nothing

+ Compact and smart. Quiet. Efficient.

- None really just be sure the capacity is large enough as it would only suit a single person (or perhaps a couple depending on their shopping habits)

+ The capacity is good, most of the things about the frdge freezer are good.

- Switching the door from right to left opening was very difficult, the instructions were terrible. The holes for inserting the screws to hold the door had not been tapped with threads for the screws making them very difficult to put in. Obviously trying to manufacturing costs.

+ It is compact, clean-looking with plenty of space for a family of four.

- 2 icecube makers would've been nice for an ice bank of it's size....

+ Energy efficient, good storage space for a slim model that fits nicely in an awkward corner of an old style house.

- When reversing the doors the upper screws were incredibly difficult to remove and replace.

+ Frost free - reversible doors

- Noisy - doors awkward to reverse

+ Fits compact spaces
Quiet

- Only one salad crisper when advert showed two

+ Easy to change doors

- none

+ Good size fridge.

- Not very large freezer.

+ Clean looking and easy to load with food

- slightly smaller thn expected

+ Like the split crisper drawers in the fridge

- Would prefer the top shelf of the freezer to be a drawer instead of a pull down flap

+ all round size for capacity and fitting in the kitchen area

- none

+ Reviewer left no comment

- Hard to reverse door.

+ Clean lines, sensible storage, easy to clean.

- None that weren't considered as trade-offs with larger models.

+ good buy like the layout good freezer defrosts itself

- door on wrong side for me but I chandeg it around,we always have the door hinges on the left

+ The frost free aspect is very helpful

- Thermostat inside is badly positioned as it is often caught and takes room up in the fridge section

+ compact & quiet

- paint in threads made swapping hinges over quite difficult

+ This is a very good quality and capable fridge freezer for the price I paid. Was reluctant to buy Beko because I hadn't had any experience with the brand, but I have very pleased with it.

- None really, I would have preferred a little more freezer space but it came down to the right size model for my fitted kichen. Am cautious about the fan in the fast freeze section, worried that I could get something stuck in it, but it hasn't happened yet.

+ Great value frost free fridge freezer

- Reviewer left no comment

+ Very economical.

- Rather Noisy. The compressor was initially quiet, but after about three weeks operation it has become quite noisy, far more so than the old fridge it replaced. I left it standing for 15 hours before switching it on to ensure the compressor gases had plenty of time to settle down.

+ Ideal for me as I live on my own plenty of room for everything

- I would have liked it to have the two salad compartments as it stated in the specification i got before I bought it The top shelf is more than usless except for eggs and a butterpack better to leave it out and make room on the lower shelf for taller objects

- Freezer - bottom drawer won,t take any more than one loaf ,it is too small.When the motor is running it is very noisy

+ In perfect condition, good design.

- Reviewer left no comment

+ Ideal for 1 or 2 people. Storage space almost equal to the old much larger f/freezer. Looks good in the kitchen.
Too soon to measure energy consumption but assume it is less

- Controls could have been better placed as they restrict space on top shelf of fridge.

+ Compact, ideal for the smaller kitchen. Feels solid.

- Feel they could have made a little bit more of the freezer space. Had to go down from four drawers (old Hotpoint) to this one that has only three.

+ Good access ,auto defrosting,power rating

- Stainless steel easily stained by hands,would now go for silver finish.

+ Good capacity for young family

- None

+ Excellent capacity fr my needs

- None

+ Fits the small space well.

- Very flimsy construction. Shelves too close together - can't keep large bottles on the shelves.

+ Fridge Capacity and layout

- Usable Freezer Capacity

+ Excellent value for money, plenty of space for the 2 people in my house, frost free. Clear freezer drawers.

- A larger family might need a bigger capacity.

+ I like the separate storage area for vegetables and fruit. Very cold but frost free, which is great.

- Freezer capacity could be a bit bigger.

+ Narrow -- had to fit in a gap between fitted cupboards. It obviously doesn't hold as much as other, wider fridges. But it does hold as much or more than similarly narrow models from other brands.

- Cheaply made and designed. Seals are flimsy. Changing the door to the other side took a long time with lots of moving of bolts. Once set up it seems to work reliably though.
