    Smeg Fab28 is a nice looking fashion fridge, but useless build. Door lining shelves can't take normal use, and no easy repair, have to buy new door at over £200. Ice box door bust, another expensive item. Serves me right for listening to the missus and going for looks instead of functionality

    For such an expensive fridge I am very disappointed. The parts are flimsey and expensive to replace. Both our door seals have gone after 18 months wear and the only option is new doors which costs more than the fridge itself!!!

    FAB28 is the most beautiful refrigerator I have ever seen. My kitchen now looks like a new one!! All my friends, when entering in my kitchen make me compliments. The fridge inside it simple but is functional. I am also happy with the quality of the appliance, I never had a problem (I bought it 4 years ago). This product really improved my quality of life, happyness flows into my veins each time I look at it !!! FAB28 I LOVE YOU. This is a fantastic product. I suggest this product to every family ...

    It really is a good looking fridge but I wouldn't have another. The quality is poor and the Customer Service department haven't been helpful when calling.

    We purchased the Smeg Fab28 refrigerator because of its looks. We are now on our third fridge due to problems with the door seal going, which leaves the light on inside all the time. My third fridge has frozen up at the rear, and it then decided to defrost all over the kitchen floor! Another phone call to Smeg and another engineer call out! Probably another fridge too. Where will it end? Customer services are very helpful, but they can't make the product any better.

    I have had the Smeg Fab28 fridge for 5 years, and it cost a fortune. I expected to have it for at least 15 - 20 years. Living in Ireland, it would cost 600 Euros for a new door and then the cost of fitting it. It would be cheaper to buy a new fridge.

    Like other reviewers, I purchased this Smeg Fab28 Refrigerator on the basis that it looked great and had a large capacity. However, it is without doubt the worst purchase I have ever made. I have been plagued with problems such as the door seal going (you have to buy a whole new door at a cost of £300 plus labour to have this repaired!), the compressor going (another £200), permanently iced up freezer compartment and plastic egg holders etc...that crack with the slightest knock! If y ...

    Less than 3 years since I bought this Smeg Fab28 fridge, it is heading to the tip. It will have a sign on it, informing any passers by, not to buy a fridge of this type.

    This is the most over-priced, unreliable electrical appliance I have ever purchased. Having spent nearly £900 I was expecting a quality product that was durable, reliable and most importantly fit for purpose. After 6 months, and considerable wastage of food items that had perished because of inadequate temperature cont ...

    Smeg Fab28 Fridge - I expected a product of this cost and supposed quality to be a good workhorse as an household refrigerator. However, since day one the fridge temperature was unresponsive to the controls and the lightbulb was replaced several times in the first 2 years, packing up altogether in month 25. Unsightly browning appeared around the door light activating control panel after a few months.
    The panel finally blew after 26 months, with widespread blackening in this area.
    SMEG have off ...
