+ Ice Maker and cool filtered water dispenser are excellent. Fridge is large, plenty of shelves and storgage bins. Controls for freezer and fridge very simple. Its one cool fridge.

- Some of the bins feel a bit femer, opening flaps on bins are not good. When opening the door of the fridge occasionally it pulls the fridge forward with vacumn seal, the fridge is on rollers, the tiled floor i have does not help with this a little wedge sorts this. Had to buy some door stops to stop fridge rollers rolling onto the wall. Maybe some rubber feet would of prevented this.

+ Looks fantastic Solidly built and a real eye catcher. The shelves are sturdy and deep, easy to change the temperature. Ice maker and cold water are fantastic, the water is filtered so that is great.

- A bit fiddly to plumb in the water supply, make sure you have someone who knows what they are doing to prevent disaster. Would have liked slightly more room in freezer, but it is a pay off for having the ice maker .

James, Surbiton , “James Rajah from Surbiton.”

+ Product is very good. If you are looking for an american style fridge/freezer, you will like this. It is what it says on the product details. Enough storage compartments, dual cooling system, ice cubes & crushed ice. Good & attractive lighting inside. Nice shiny black outside. Definitely value for money.

- Does make a noice when dropping ice cubes. Not suitable for smaller kitchens as it takes up a lot of space in your kitchen.

Fridge Freezer Buyers Guide  

Manufacturer's Description

side by side fridge freezer

The black RSH1DBBP side by side refrigerator features SAMSUNG’s unique Twin Cooling technology to keep your food fresher for longer, along with Multi Flow technology to maintain the ideal temperature inside the refrigerator at all times. Also included are a tall water and ice dispenser, total no frost, an external digital display and control panel and an ‘A’ energy rating.

Twin Cooling System™

The Twin Cooling System™ uses two individual evaporators that generate cooling air into the fridge and freezer independently, without any transfer of cooling air between compartments. As a result, a high humidity level of 43% is maintained allowing you to keep your vegetables fresh and crisp, and the freezer retains the natural flavour of food with no transfer of odours.

tall water and ice dispenser

The water and ice dispenser provides continuous filtered water and crushed or cubed ice at the touch of a button, and has now been made even taller to accommodate taller glasses or pitchers. The healthy water filter system ensures that water and ice from the refrigerator will always be clean and fresh, making the fridge more space efficient as storing bottled water becomes a thing of the past.

LED tower lighting

LED Tower Lighting built into the back of the fridge saves space and illuminates every corner, making it easier to identify and locate items within the fridge.

multi flow

Cooling air flows out through multiple outlets on every shelf, providing even cooling throughout the refrigerator, as well as quickly cooling the refrigerator back down to its optimal temperature after the door has been opened. By keeping the temperature steady, your food is kept safely chilled and better preserved.

digital LED display and control panel

The flush-fitted, sophisticated LED display panel not only looks good but enables you to track and control independent temperature changes in the refrigerator and freezer compartments.

big box storage

The big box is a larger storage compartment with a self flip-up lid and LED lighting, allowing for easier access to fruit and vegetables in the fridge and to frozen meat and poultry in the freezer.
