Darren, Bourne

+ Quiet, Bags of Room, Works very well. Temperature setting is only on 1.5 which keeps the fridge well chilled and the freezer ticking over nicely. Delivery was on time and the two delivery personnel were excellent.

- More to do with our kitchen, but the width must be just over what it says it is as it was a very tight fit between a wall and cupboard!

Richard, Aberdeen , “I want value-for-money”

+ It's BIG - I bought it as a second fridge/freezer but it's so big I don't need the other two under worktop units any more.

- No use for small people. The fridge's top shelf is so high if you less than 5'4" your not going to reach the back of this monster.
it's manual defrost - yep in the year 2008!

Eleanor, Northwest

+ It is a good fridge freezer with plenty of space.
The fridge gets very cold, so you don't need it turnned up high.
The freezer is quick freeze, a good feature when making baby food to freeze, as the quicker it freezes the better.
The silver is a lovely colour and matches well with crome products.

- The only thing I think this fridge freezer is missing is a bottle holder!!!

Pete, Nottingham

+ It looks great and is very efficient, the double crisper is a boon especially if you eat as much salad as we do, it keeps perfect for days on end. A lot of thought has gone in to the layout and we have found it perfect for our needs.

- No real bad points, the only thing we would have liked is a little larger freezer compartment, but after looking around for around two years it appears that no manufacturer makes one and the Beko was the nearest to a true half and half unit with looks and interior to match.

under shelf freezing is great for energy saving and equal freezing.

Ann , Rubery Birmingham

+ I love the colour as I have only ever had white before.It looks good. Has a nice shape to it rather than just flat and oblong, some how it dose not stick out like my last one it blends in with the kitchen. Does not show finger marks.

- Not a great deal of room in the freezer draws and the fridge sheelves could do with being slightly wider.

+ Ididn't need a large fridge area so this is ideal for me. I like the deep shelves in the door.

- Instead of having drwers in the freezer compartment it could have shlves, this would give more space for freezer storage.
