Frost free fridge freezer

is Hisense better than Beko. I do not like the bottle rack with the bosch, that’s what putting me off buying it. It’s more expensive but a brand I know, Thanks

I bought a Hisense Fridge freezer 8 years ago and its still running fine (frost free fridge and freezer) so pleased with It I have bought 2 Hisense TV's and both have been running fine for many years;

Hisense Group is a Chinese multinational major appliance and electronics manufacturer headquartered in Qingdao, Shandong Province, China.[2] Televisions are the main products of Hisense, and it is the largest TV manufacturer in China

Looking to replace my hotpoint fridge/ freezer. Do not  have a lot of choices as need one with a depth of no more than  57 cms.. As am restricted with the depth size can only buy beko or bosh.Seen a Beko at £329 and a Bosh at £449: they will both fit in the space. Undecided which one to get, will the bosh be a better buy. Not sure about Beko brand ! Thanks

is it to be built in or ?

I'd suggest looking at the RDO website, not necessarily to buy as their prices aren't the best but they have the best filters. 

For freestanding and being able to go to 57.5cm it adds a few more brand options, if it's under 57cm then Hisense is another option. Many more options if it's integrated instead of free standing. 


According to the chap we know who does appliance repairs Beko go through cycles of being great quality for the price and being poor quality. Bosch and their sister brands are more consistent but the name adds costs so better can be gotten for the same price. 

Freestanding , is Hisense better than Beko. I do not like the bottle rack with the bosch, that’s what putting me off buying it. It’s more expensive but a brand I know, Thanks

In the UK they are only really known for their TVs which are low-middle market but well priced. Annoyingly they use different model numbers in different countries and aren't against using the same model number to represent different models in different countries... a few people have been caught out buying TVs based on US reviews but the UK item with the same model number is a very different beast. 

Used some Hisense appliances when outside of the UK for 6 months and they seemed fine but cannot comment on which is better between them and Beko, in principle their propositions of good value items is similar.

Good thing about Bosch products in general, is they offer a good back up service is something does go wrong in the warranty period. At least in my experience with a WB boiler and a Bosch fan oven. 

In practice most companies use the same subcontractor. The chap in question has 15+ jackets in the back of his van so he's wearing the right branding when coming out to do the job. Have had him sent out by Bosch, Samsung and Hotpoint each time with the right jacket. Only time had someone out in this area and it wasnt him was a Miele in warranty repair and for all I know he's his colleague (though he did say he personally doesn't do Miele)

I did not know that, but I still say the actual response each time was good ( no quibbling & quick) 

Most big companies have their own service teams in liveried vans, I used to work for one. You'll see plenty of Bosch, Hotpoint, Hoover/Candy, Miele, etc. vans about. Smaller companies will use local contractors.

I got a free standing Hisense frost free fridge freezer delivered about 3 weeks ago from AO. Depth was what drew me too it, not familiar with Hisense myself but so far so good.
