 Zeb4's recommendation | |
American style side by side fridge freezer, bought to replace two separate fridge/freezers. More than twice the capacity in a slightly smaller footprint. More efficient than those it replaced - it is 'A' energy rated, so should save about £50 per year in electricity cost at 10p per unit. It has a single motor with two compressors, so the fridge and freezer are controlled independently. Nice illuminated panel on front of freezer door makes setting the temperature of each part very easy. It also has Power Freeze and Power Cool buttons, if you need to freeze or cool a large amount of food quickly. It will go through a standard 30" door opening - just!
The middle of the full-length handles were bent inwards on delivery - probably happened in storage. I have carefully (!) pulled them back into shape. Opening the doors as they are so big takes a bit of effort - I now use the other handle as a rest and gently prise the required door open, rather than using just a straight pull. Its worst fault is that it is very noisy when operating. Not so bad for us, but the cats might tell you different! If your doorways are not wide enough, taking the doors off is not particularly easy.
Very imposing presence, too tall to put on all those small items that live on the top of normal fridges. Ours is the the white, fairly basic, model without the optional internal temperature-controlled compartment, although I contacted Samsung UK to ask exactly what the model number indicated and was told that it had the compartment. Needless to say, when it arrived, it didn't! All I got was an apology from them, but I am not impressed. Check carefully is my advice, not necessarily with the manufacturer - a dealer may have more idea.
Bought from our local shop (HBH Woolacott), very slightly more than the big sheds, but delivered on time and installed carefully
No idea about Durability yet, but I assume it should be OK - if not, I'll be back!
