Advantages: large fridge
Disadvantages: smaller freezer
we brought this fridge freezer about 6 months ago from the argos after our old one finaly bit the dust, it cost £290 and is only available on home delivery.
The doors on this can be fitted either side so you can choose which side you want them to open from, the light in the fridge is on the top of the inside of the fridge which gives a lot more light in the fridge than my old one used to which was on the side, it has 4 glass shelves inside the fridge that three are adjustable so that you can choose where inside the fridge you want them and you have a salad tray at the bottom, there are 3 trays on the door of the fridge for dairy items that are quite small, one has an egg tray and the others are ideal for tins and butter. there is a larger tray on the bottom of the fridge door that is ideal for milk and pop.
The freezer part has 3 baskets in to store the food which are fully removable for cleaning which is realy easy as it has an auto defrost setting and a defrost spout that makes the job realy easy compared with my old freezer, there are ice trays included that can be clipped onto the baskets.
The overall height of this is 175 cm, the controlls are at the top which is great for me as it means the girls cant mess and accidentally defrost my freezer. it is a class A+ energy rated.
The fridge is huge, way big enough for a family like ours its actually size is 180 liters but the freezer is tiny in comparison to our old chest freezer at only 90 liters of storage but a lot of this is taken up by the baskets so it is not big enough for a lot of items, my frozen chicken takes up a whole basket.
This would be ideal for someone who buys lots of fresh food items but not a lot of frozen items

Nar2 - 22/06/08 What about cleaning the fridge parts though? If it has all those wonderful adjustable shelves and smaller bits like the egg tray, is the design sufficient enough to warrant easy enough cleaning? Much as I love my parents old Electrolux fridge/freezer cleaning it is a nightmare because of the grills and the poor design of the bottle holders.
Also is this fridge freezer noisy in use? Is it frost free? |
