+ Great space in fridge. Lots of storage in the door. Love the sliding salad tray, bottle rack and the slideout drawers in the freezer. I wasn't expecting the freezer to be all that spacious but it holds more than I thought. Love the chilled water dispenser.

- Ice maker takes up quite a bit of space in the freezer, but works well.

+ Good design. Like the inside layout; the water dispenser and ice cube maker. Fitted perfectly in the space we had available.

- Product initially came with North American plumbing size fittings for water dispenser but the correct part was quickly dispatched to us by Fischer and Paykel.

+ Humidity control for fruit and veg really works and keeps things fresh for much longer. Lots of room in the fridge and a perfect sized freezer with lots of room to store the basics and home made ice lollies and an ice cream maker. The wine storage shelf is excellent too.

- None so far.

+ Extra large fridge and reasonable sized freezer with very good chilled water feature, which does not take away any internal space on the door.

Freezer Stars	4
These tell you how long you can store food for – with 1 star you can store food for up to a week and with 4 stars, you can freeze food for up to a year.

Get cool water at the touch of a button. Great in summer but the device needs to be plumbed into the mains. Water dispensers also tend to take up quite a bit of space and have a filter that needs changing regularly.

Fridge Freezer Buyers Guide

Manufacturer's Description

Active Smart technology has been given a new addition, an integrated water dispenser providing you with chilled filtered water and an internal ice maker for clean, crisp ice cubes on demand. With no impact on space in the freezer or refrigerator door, this is the perfect addition to the Active Smart family.

Active Smart® has two variable speed fans which provide faster cooling and freezing with an even temperature throughout each level. Active Smart continuously adjust the flow of cold air based on daily use and climatic conditions, ensuring it quickly reaches the safe temperature for maintaining freshness.

The Humidity Control System is a slide control which combines with the Humidity Control Lid. This system enables humidity customisation in each side of the fruit and vegetable bin.

Enjoy the healthy benefits of cold, filtered water at the touch of a button though a fully plumbed in water dispenser. Because this dispenser takes up no room in the door, you still have maximum space for food storage.

Clean, crisp ice cubes on demand with no impact on useable space. Ice making volume can be customised to your lifestyle and weve even included an ice scoop for hygienic use of your cubes.

All Active Smarts features can be accessed through the external controls. Freezer Chill provides rapid freezing and Bottle Chill offers a timed chilling function.
