+ freezer drawer space is very good a lot of the freezers i saw had very narrow drawers but this one has three very decent sized drawers.

- so far ive not noticed anything on the negative side, lets hope it stays that way.

Sharon, Chesterfield

+ Surprisingly deep drawers in the freezer section with an added bonus of the ice maker handles on the drawers so no need to be careful with ice trays. Fridge itself is of a good size.

- Haven't had it long enough for it to warrant a defrosting as this is this is not frost-free. No other bad points.

+ The light at the front of the top of the fridge - gives excellent visibility without getting in the way. The temperature setting on the frame rather than in the fridge - prevents accidental changes. The ice moulds in the handles of the freezer drawers. It took me a while to realise what they were but it's great that I don't have to worry about spilling water in the freezer or taking up space in the drawers.

- Bulky design - I don't like the shape of the doors and it sticks out a long way. We needed to reverse the doors and the instructions for this were terrible - plus it wasn't very easy to do.
