Looks good
Everything else
I have had a similar experience to the other reviewers. Within a year the railings above the door shelves had broken on my Smeg FAB 28 Retro fridge freezer, meaning now that every time I open the fridge door any bottles in the door fall out - I have broken a lot of bottles of wine this way, and spilt a lot of milk. Also, the freezer door broke off in under a year, and I gave up altogether with the Smeg customer service. We paid for a new freezer door which never arrived (£75), and we were unable to get reimbursed. This must be a design fault that they have never addressed, because it has happened to most people I have met who have a Smeg fridge. So now we just don't use the icebox compartment at all because it is frozen solid due to the faulty door. Also, for a fridge this price, there is really not much room in the fridge at all! It is completely and utterly style over substance, and a total waste of money for the price. Why can't another manufacturer come up with something similar which actually works?
