Score 8.0/10

+ Good storage space for overall size of fridge-freezer and economical too, reasonably quiet

- Difficult to position in a corner as doors oversail the sides by approx 20mm. The colour is more grey than silver and a bit plasticky on the outer components. Difficult to store your booze on top due to lack of flat panel but overall a very good fridge freezer to date!

+ Large capacity fridge, same width as other fridges, it is just taller. Extremely quiet motor, hardly ever running! Good, deep shelves in the door.

- Only bad point, the salad box would be a lot easier to handle if it were in two halves, rather that all in one.

+ Loads of space although could do with a smidge more depth in the door. .

- Only bad thing is that there's no top to the fridge so the few things that we used to place on top have now had to be found a new home. Otherwise it's the best value fridge/freezer we could find and with a good Which report too

+ Large fridge which was want I wanted.Although freezer is smaller (but I knew that )I found it quite deceptive in the amount of food that can fit into it.

- None that I can think of at present unless you count having to find somewhere else to put the things I had on top of my old fridge/freezer.

+ Lots of space considering its not a massive american style fridge.
Simple design.
We wanted a reasonable sized fridge for not too much money and this fits the bill perfectly.

- a little noisy now and again when it kicks in.
Be careful not to accidentally throw the two small screws away to fasten the bottom bit of skirting as they are wrapped in the plastic that its wrapped in
