+ Firstly couldn't really answer energy consumption - as I don't know - I bought it because of the height. It just fits in the maximum space available. The best point for me is how quiet it is - our previous fridge was Samsung and very very noisy.

- Not really a fault - but the door was hinged on the wrong side for us, We found the directions for swopping over quite difficult - but that could have been us!!!!!!!

Product Features

Energy Efficiency	A
The more efficient the product, the less energy it needs and the more you get for your money. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products are the least efficient. The most efficient products can now be identified by new ‘A’ and ‘A*’ ratings.
Number of Doors	2
Width in cm	60
Colour	White
The main colour of the product.
Frost Free	Yes
This will prevent the build-up of ice and frost so that you won’t have to chip away at giant blocks of ice every so often.
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. You need a 4-star freezer to freeze fresh food. With anything less you can store only pre-frozen food except with a 1-star freezer, which is suitable only for ice.
Ice-Cube Dispenser	No
Get instant ice cubes at the touch of a button.
Water Dispenser	No
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.
