Where to buy the Miele KFN 7833 D fridge freezer
🏆 Review & price summary
The Miele KFN 7833 D fridge freezer combines 284 litres of usable storage with DailyFresh humidity control, DynaCool circulation, NoFrost and flexible VarioRoom freezer storage. Its 33dB operation, connected Miele@home functions and comprehensive alarm system make it a polished choice for a tall fitted kitchen. The main compromises are the D energy rating, 70-litre freezer compartment and sliding-door installation system.
✓ Key strengths
- ✓ 284 litres of usable storage, including a spacious 215-litre refrigerator section
- ✓ NoFrost removes routine manual freezer defrosting
- ✓ DailyFresh provides adjustable humidity control for fruit and vegetables
- ✓ DynaCool distributes cold air more evenly across the refrigerator section
- ✓ Quiet 33dB operation with Miele@home connectivity and useful monitoring alerts
- ✓ VarioRoom, FlexiBoard and independent temperature zones improve storage flexibility
Worth considering
- D energy rating is below the most efficient A-, B- and C-rated fridge freezers
- The 70-litre freezer has three drawers, so frozen-food capacity is more limited than the refrigerator space
- The sliding-door connection may not suit kitchens designed specifically for fixed-door mounting
- There is no mains-connected ice or water dispenser

Large integrated storage in a tall format
The Miele KFN 7833 D fridge freezer provides 284 litres of usable storage, split between a 215-litre refrigerator section and a 70-litre four-star freezer. Its 1940–1950 mm niche requirement makes it a tall integrated appliance suited to larger fitted kitchens.
The refrigerator has five shelves, including one FlexiBoard split shelf, three door shelves, a bottle rack and a DailyFresh crisper drawer. The FlexiBoard creates extra room for tall containers without removing a full shelf.
Fresh-food and freezer performance
DailyFresh allows the humidity in the main crisper drawer to be adjusted for fruit and vegetables, while DynaCool uses fan-assisted circulation to distribute cold air more evenly across the refrigerator section.
NoFrost automatically defrosts the freezer, removing the need for routine manual defrosting. VarioRoom allows the freezer drawers and glass shelves to be rearranged for bulkier items, while SuperFreeze supports rapid freezing at a stated capacity of 6kg in 24 hours.
Useful controls and connected features
SensorTouch controls provide separate temperature regulation for the refrigerator and freezer zones, with SuperCool, SuperFreeze, Holiday, Party and Sabbath modes available. The refrigerator section can also be switched off independently.
Miele@home adds connected functions such as cooling tips, remote updates, smart-home integration and push notifications. Door and temperature alarms, plus a freezer power-cut indication, provide useful monitoring when the appliance is unattended.
Installation considerations
This is an integrated appliance using a sliding-door connection, with convertible door hinging and a right-hand factory hinge position. The cabinet needs a 560–570 mm width, 1940–1950 mm height and 550 mm depth niche.
The appliance itself measures 541 x 1938 x 545 mm and weighs 61.6kg. Buyers should check both the cabinet dimensions and the kitchen-door mounting system before installation.
Energy use and noise
The Miele KFN 7833 D fridge freezer has a D energy rating, with manufacturer-declared annual consumption of 180.31kWh. That places it in the middle of the current A–G scale rather than among the most efficient fridge freezers.
At 33dB and noise-emission class B, it should be relatively unobtrusive in an open-plan kitchen. Its LED refrigerator lighting, ComfortClean dishwasher-safe door shelves and automatic defrosting also reduce routine maintenance.
Research note: this BestBuysUK assessment is based on the manufacturer's published specifications and other reputable technical sources. Specifications and retailer availability can change, so verify critical details before purchase.
