Bob, Market Drayton

+ Good Icemaking dispenser although it scares the dog and is quite noisy when it loads the ice into the dispenser.

- does not sit level on the floor. Seems to lean back and there is no little adjustment to level it.

+ Good price for specifications. Large port for water/ ice dispenser

- Same exterior dimensions as other makes but interior capacity is smaller, eg door shelves in fridge are aren't deep enough for large soft drinks bottles etc. Difficult to maintain ideal temperature, only 5 levels available

Steve, Ashton-in-Makerfield

+ I really like the style of the fridge and the fact you can have crushed ice as well as cubes and ice cold water.The beeper which goes off when the fridge is open too long is also a very good idea.

- The freezer side isn't really big enough but we have another freezer in the garage to compensate for that.

Andrew, Southampton

+ This fridge/freezer is superb it has an easy to use ice/water dispenser, large fridge area with internal temperature controls so different products can be used at different temps, ie keep your veg fresh longer, the doors are deep and can fit bottles of cordial and sauces in with ease, the freezer capacity is adequate however as all of these designs the ice machine takes up some room, but it is well worth it in hot weather

- None that I have found yet

Richie, Liverpool

+ nice looking, on castors, easy to plumb in, ice maker & water dispenser fantastic. Plenty of space in the fridge for bottles, cans etc. Excelent value for money does the job brilliantly

- The Freezer part is Tiny, i dont have a problem because i use a Chest freezer and dont keeep much in it anyway, and i would rather have the ice maker. A family may struggle though as there is not much room for frozen food at all.
Drawers in the fridge would be better being shelves for me personally as i dont buy much fresh meat or salad stuffs.

+ Easy to use. Products last longer past sell by date. Esay to keep clean. Great overall design for what we want. Easy to plumb in.

- Ice machine is a little brutal. (on or off)
Could use a drain off point for dispenser tray (if you can plumb in to water, you can plumb the waste).

+ 1. Good storage and capacity
2. Ice and cold water dispenser

- 1. There is a slight bend on the freezer door seal. Can be removed by stretching the seal.
2. Mid point on the temp scale the fridge was probably a little too cold. Meat in the lower section froze.

Shona, Milton Keynes

+ Looks great. Love cold water and ice. Not too huge like some merican style fridge freezers. Good door space that can have larger size bottles. Like the little space in freezer where i put bread an having door freezer space too! I plumbed it in myself too... and I am just a girlie who has never done anything remotely like plumbing before. Just love it really. Fantastic value for money!!!

- Lots of fridge space. Less freezer space, so for a large family I would recommend having another freezer too.

Ice-Cube Dispenser	Yes
Get instant ice cubes at the touch of a button.

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.
