Which fridge

olb81

This one has 30 off and good reviews and totally fits the gap I have of 84x55x59

However there is a cheaper option with ice box, but it will leave a small gap at the side and reviews are mixed

Any opinions? Or any others you know of. It's just me alone in the house.

Do you need and ice box? It will take up space in the fridge or maybe you could just have an ice box and not a freezer as well.......If you have a freezer in the kitchen I don't see the need for another ice box, if not it may be handy if a freezer is in a garage for instance.
A fridge will need to have some circulation space for air around it.

The narrower width and I've box both mean the actual fridge space in the second one is quite a lot less. I'd get the first one unless you actually need an ice box or your budget just won't stretch.

Don't need an icebox I guess.
Only thing I would like is frozen berries, but can I defrost these and leave them a few days in the fridge? Like eat them over 3/4 days?

As an aside, I have 3 friends/colleagues who’ve all bought from appliances direct and regretted it, but maybe they were all just unlucky

Oh, if you have no other freezer then absolutely get an ice compartment if it's something you'll use!

Could the answer be that neither of those is the right fridge for you?
