How to choose a fridge and freezer

1. Type of fridge

What’s your style? Go for a freestanding fridge with a bold design or a built-in one for a sleek, seamless look.

2. Functions

Are there any accessories or features you can’t live without? We’ve got fridges that tick all your boxes.

3. Storage capacity

How much food do you need to store? And how big is your household? We’ve got fridges in all sizes and capacities to match your needs.

Built-in fridges

Want a seamless look? Integrate your fridge or freezer behind the same fronts as the rest of your kitchen.

Under-counter fridges

If you’ve got a small kitchen or don’t cook that often, a handy built-in fridge or freezer fits perfectly between two base cabinets under your worktop.

Freestanding

If you’d like your fridge or freezer to stand out as a statement piece in your kitchen, go for a freestanding option. These models offer more storage and don’t take up any of your built-in kitchen space.

• Measure the height: Measure from the floor to the top of the niche. Take measurements at several points to make sure the space isn’t narrowing anywhere.
• Measure the width: Measure the inside width from wall to wall. Do this at different heights, especially if the niche isn’t perfectly straight.
• Measure the depth: Measure from the back wall to the front edge of the cabinet or worktop. Make sure to measure at the deepest point of the niche.

• Measure the ceiling height: If the fridge will go under a cabinet, also measure from the top of the niche to the bottom of the cabinet.
• Measure the opening: Check the height and width of the kitchen space where the fridge will go. Don’t forget to account for skirting boards or any obstacles at the sides.
• Consider ventilation: Built-in fridges usually need some space at the back and sides for proper airflow. Check the fridge’s installation instructions to see how much ventilation space is required.

• Check the installation requirements: Look at the installation guide for the specific fridge you’re considering. It includes detailed information on niche dimensions, ventilation space, and other important instructions.
• Consider door opening and hinge side: Check which way the fridge door opens and whether it can be adjusted to fit your kitchen layout. Make sure there’s enough space for the door to open fully without any obstacles.

A built-in fridge fan circulates the air to keep the temperature even, so you can store your food anywhere in the fridge.

No more defrosting or scraping! The No Frost feature automatically controls humidity to prevent ice build-up in your fridge.
