Looks good in the kitchen.

First one stoppped working after 12 hrs, 2nd one had paint fault, kept 3rd one and it is noisy at times.

I think it may be most noisy when it is self defrosting but it can be loud and annoying if I am in the kitchen.

Looks stylish ...very quiet and has a huge capacity - love it....

The door opening is wider than 600ml ..had to move units to accommodate

Looks good, fits in with the rest of the kitchen - however it's slightly larger than advertised because of the door opening.

Very quiet, maintains correct temperatures at all times (based upon 6 months use through a summer) Fridge design particularly good.

Larger items sometimes difficult to remove from freezer drawers. Ice cube tray provided with the fridge freezer is totally inadequate and I suggest is withdrawn.

Very pleased overall with very good value for money

Looks very stylish, keeps food cold.

There is no side handle on the doors and the top tray doesn't open very far, making it difficult to get larger items in and out.

I am pleased with my choice.

Excellant large fridge with glass shelves so that everything is viewable. Perfect for what we needed at a great price. Highly recommended if you like a large fridge but not such a large freezer.

You cannot reposition the direction in which the doors open. It can be a little akward to get things in and out of the top drawer in the freezer compartment.

Great value for money.

eye level fridge allows you to see the food in the fridge. I also like the glass shelves as they are easy to keep clean.

I find the drawers in the freezer area difficult to remove when i want to look in the back of the drawers.

Good product for the money, we wanted an eye level fridge area to add to the below the work surface fridge we already have. This fits the bill perfectly. Thank you.

The glass shelves prevent cracking which tends to occur in plastic shelves. Deceptively spaceous.

The freezer does not include a separate ice tray or compartment.

Overall a very good buy for the money and I love the fact I can alter the temperature or the freezer and fridge. Bought on internet.

We use as an additional fridge. The split between fridge and freezer is fine.

It had quite bad teething problems and the fridge section did not work on 2 occasions. The engineer was called out twice and eventually discovered what was wrong. A defective part was replaced.

At one time we wanted the fridge replaced as we had to throw away a few items of food that had gone off ! We are satisfied now that the fridge has been effectively repaired...

Plenty of space in the fridge as well as a good-sized freezer. The doors open lightly and easily.

Not sure if it is a bad point or a good one; it's strange but funny for pure novelty value, it emits a strange "mooing" noise on opening and closing.

Overall, we have been well satisfied with the quality of the product, and it looks really good too.

A fine fridge freezer, plenty of space, and a nice modern design. None of that awful white facing that grubbies over time.

The machine is a bit noisy, and makes strange sounds sometimes that I presume (hope) are normal. But I lived with my last machine for 14 years, so maybe forgot how noisy that was at the beginning.

Plenty of space in the Fridge section and the Freezer Drawers are very useful. I am also very pleased with the cooling ability of this appliance as the cool air is direct around the fridge and into each of the freezer drawers.

The top freezer drawer can be a little annoying as the fridge door blocks your ability to get bulky items (e.g. Ice Cream) without either opening the fridge or pulling the drawer out fully.

Quiet running and spacious. Has a large crisper in the fridge that has a moveable/removeable divider. Looks great and doesn't show fingerprints like other stainless steel finishes we have seen. Adjustable door compartments.

Advertised as 60cm wide and had heard reports that it comes up a little bit bigger. We did manage to get it into a 60cm gap but with rather a struggle. The fact that it has small wheels on the back meant we were able to manage it in the end. Top drawer of freezer isn't easy to access because fridge door protrudes quite a long way but this hasn't been enough of an issue to bother us.

Really large interior for the overall size of the unit. Keeps everything really fresh, I like the veg drawer that has a moveable divider as you can take it out if you have loads of fruit & veg. The safety shelves are nice aswell as I have had a spillage and it contained it on one shelf instead of dripping down to the others.

A shame that it didnt have the antibacterial lining that some new fridges have. Also no wine rack as that always frees up space on the shelves.
