Who Should Buy It?
- ✓ A strong fit for buyers who want a statement appliance rather than an understated conventional fridge.
- ✓ Suitable for households that prioritise fresh-food storage and would benefit from a dedicated low-temperature drawer.
- ✓ Worth considering where a freestanding 60cm-width appliance and right-hand hinge suit the available kitchen layout.
- ✓ Useful for homes with varied ambient temperatures, as the stated SN-T climate class covers 10°C to 43°C.
Storage and temperature control
The 244-litre refrigerator compartment gives this appliance a useful emphasis on fresh-food storage, while the 26-litre ice box provides limited frozen-food space for everyday essentials. The LifePlus drawer adds a controlled zone from -2°C to +3°C, making it particularly useful for foods such as meat, fish and cheese.
Fan-assisted Multiflow cooling is designed to distribute cold air evenly throughout the refrigerator. The dedicated fruit and vegetable compartment also has adjustable ventilation and humidity control, giving users more flexibility when storing fresh produce.
Design, practicality and placement
The Sea Salt Green Matt finish, rounded curves and chrome details give the fridge a strong retro character. It is a visual focal point, so it will suit buyers who want the appliance to contribute to the kitchen's overall design rather than blend into the background.
The freestanding format and stated 60cm width make installation relatively straightforward, but the right-hand hinge should be checked against the room layout before purchase. LED light strips on both sides, automatic fridge defrost and an inverter compressor add everyday convenience, while the SN-T climate class supports operation across a broad range of ambient temperatures.
