Good shelf space and storage areas. Excellent access.

The fridge cools quickly when opening the door. One has to be careful to ensure that items do not contact the rear cooling element as it causes condensation and water drips.

Nice and spacious fridge - can fit loads in. Has kept food at a stable temperature, no problems since bought.

Quite bulky - but then it is a roomy fridge!Shelves do not have enough options for placement - either too close to others or not usuable.Could do with a couple of extra door shelves too.

Anything at the back of shelves get frozen and cause a pool of water on the shelf, especially when they touch the back, which is unavoidable. The plastic of the drawers is very flimsy and have broken.
