Samsung RB29 vs RB31 Fridge Freezers - what's the difference?

Bogwoppitt

HI, 
I'm looking to purchase a new Samsung fridge freezer to replace the faulty Grundig one that I bought from Curry's (still waiting for the refund).
I'm tempted by Samsung's five year warranty (10 for the digital inverter) but confused by the difference between prices.
The RB29 retails for (on average) £80 more than the RB31, yet the RB31 is larger. 
The RB29 is smaller and is a 60/40 split, yet the taller RB31 is a 70/30 but has the same freezer space as the RB29.
I really don't want to buy the larger one and then find out that the smaller one is better lol

Thoughts or recommendations would be most welcome.

Also absolutely gutted that due to Curry's incompetence refunding me I've missed the Argos sale and the RB31 has gone from £350 to £399

There appear to be several different RB31s at different prices.

I bought an expensive Samsung Freezer for my parents with inverter motor and the 5 year guarantee. Just after 1 year we noticed the plastic inner lining of the freezing breaking away. A Samsung rep inspected the freezer and accused us of damaging the freezer. We got John lewis involved who could did not agree with Samsung. The plastic inner lining was too think and probably not tested and suited for being exposed to freezing temperatures constantly. Samsung cancelled out warranty without explanation.  From then on we have boycotted Samsung products.   
Aside - whatever Freezer you get make sure it has a metal backing not plastic - this reduces fire risk in the event of overheating.

Thanks for the help, I did indeed but the RB31. I've got to say, what a difference in customer service between Curry's and AO - got the fridge for £379 from AO and their service was second to none. It was a bit noisy for the first day but it seems to be getting quieter as it runs. I'm just made up that I don't have curdled milk and butter like I did for 7 weeks with the faulty one from Curry's.
