    Great fridge
    We had an old model Electrolux this size. The base warped during a cross country move and it leant left when all corners were on the floor. We sold our house. The buyer wanted the fridge. We agreed. This model has a better layout and seems more spacious, despite being the same capacity. We remain happy with the brand.

    Exceptonally quiet and energy efficient refridgerator
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this new Electrolux fridge last month to replace our old model that served us very well for 15 years. The layout inside both the fridge and freezer cabinets are well designed and very functional. It is extremely quiet and electically very efficient. Cannot fault it in any way

    Questions & answers

    Can this fridge have a left Hinge on the doors? Kathryn · 2026-04-16
    Hello Thank you for this product question. This model is only available in a right hinge side opening and cannot be reversed. Hope this helps. Kind regards, Appliances Online Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    Our space is 890mm wide- is this enough to get the drawers in the fridge at least halfway open? We don't need it to open fully. And is the bottle shelf on the fridge door removable? Nnnnn · 2025-11-30
    Hello there, 890mm is enough to get the drawers to open fully, and the bottle bins on the door can be removed =) Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Hello - what is the size of the delivery box? Chris · 2025-11-18
    Hello there, the pack dimensions are 1770x830x767mm (HxWxD). Hopefully this helps =) Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
