Good fridge freezer

Date: 14 November 2010

Pros:Â Value for money, Easy to use

Cons:Â difficult to reverse the door

"Very pleased so far. Keeps everything much colder than our previous appliance. Generally quite quiet, although you can hear it at times, but then at least you know it is working."

Great fridge/freezer

Date: 10 November 2010

Pros:Â Value for money, Easy to use, Good build quality, Quiet, looks good

Cons:Â none

"I needed a slim fridge freezer and this was the main reason I picked this model, however I'm really glad I did. I had 4 shelves in my old fridge but the 3 shelves in this one has more room. It is quiet, easy to use/keep clean and I haven't had any trouble opening the doors like other users. It is good value for money."

Excellent

Date: 24 September 2010

Pros:Â Value for money, Easy to use, Good build quality, Quiet, looks good

"Very good Keeps temperature in fridge and freezer very well unlike the Old Candy one. I can now use the soft scoop ice-cream without having to use a chisel. very quiet ... Only 1 niggle though. the fridge door is too active on its hinges and opens fully too quickly possibly because of the bottles in door. Have put a sponge to tighten the upper hinge so that it has some resistence, there should be some sort of door fully open stop on the top hinge."

"Early days yet, but this seems a very good purchase.As others have said, it is not the quietest of appliances, and the doors, especially the freezer one, are stiff for the less able to open.Attractive, practical, and well designed, with a good layout."

Competent but freezer capacity disappointing

Date: 31 August 2010

Pros:Â Value for money, Good build quality, Quiet, looks good

Cons:Â freezer space disappointing, freezer door stiff to open

"Have had this fridge freezer a couple of months now. No problems to report. As others have said the doors are quite difficult to open , particularly the freezer. However the fridge interior keeps cool, and the freezer compartment has not frosted up like others have reported. The freezer space was smaller than I expected particularly the top and bottom compartments. However , price and reliability was a key consideration , and so far it has delivered on both counts."

Built to a price

Date: 31 August 2010

Pros:Â Quiet, looks good, green light for on, the switch off feature when the door is opened, the light and the way it comes on

Cons:Â poor quality, shelves; no ridges for bottles

"The doors are stiff to open - and I'm no weakling.
Would not reccomend to anyone frail or with problems with their hands.
The shelves do not have any ridges for bottle storage, the bottles can "roll around".
The positions of the door shelves are fixed.
The freezer storage baskets are too flimsy.
Holds temperature very well.
Delivered quickly, on-time and by courteous staff."

Pros:Â Quiet, Easy to use, Good build quality, Value for money, looks good

"Wanted a fridge freezer (with frost free) to use for 6-12 months before the idea to rent the appartment and leave the fridge. So didn't want to spend much, but didn't really want to skimp on quality either. What I have is a nice quiet fridge, that has a good storage capacity without the hassle of ice. Would recomend to anyone and well happy with my purchase."

Pros:Â Quiet, Easy to use, Good build quality, Value for money, looks good

"It looks great and for the moment at least anyway we are perfectly happy with it. Space restrictions at home meant we could not order anything bigger.
The only thing I wonder about is the freezer door which does seem to close tightly and requires some pulling to open but time will tell whether it is a problem."

Worst purchase ever

Date: 13 January 2010

Cons:Â poor capacity

"It is as attractive as a any fridge freezer could be and is fairly quiet, the features are good BUT.....the capacity is very very poor. I have no more space than in my previous appliance which was over a foot smaller in height. There is a lot of space wasted particularly in the freezer..........the sloping roof in the fast freeze section, the space taken up by the drawers etc.

The look on the website was very deceptive, had I have seen this in a showroom I would not have purchased it."

So far, so good!

Date: 25 September 2009

Pros:Â Quiet, Easy to use, Good build quality, Value for money

"I really like this frost free fridge freezer although it could be doing with an extra shelf in the fridge section! Only other problem is the plastic trim on the bottom shelf of the fridge (above the fruit and veg boxes) keeps coming off when I pull out the fruit and veg boxes. It's a well built fridge freezer ideal for 2 people but wouldn't think it would hold enough for a family - we have another freezer. The ice cube holders as part of the drawers is ingenious but you have to be careful to only fill one third way up or the water will spill all over the place when you put it back into the freezer!"
