One of my most popular 60cm freestanding fridge freezers. This Samsung model offers a multitude of great features at a very competitive price point.

Key Features: Slim walls for maximized storage / Separate cooling systems for fridge and freezer / CoolSelect+ Zone
With its sleek, ultra-modern design, this Samsung fridge freezer looks good in almost any kitchen.

The fridge and freezer portions are also cooled independently, giving you more control over temperatures while nixing the possibility of odour transfer between the fridge and the freezer.
It even has a power freeze function for when you need to get your food frozen quickly. Perfect for when you’ve been stuck in traffic on the way home from the supermarket and need to save the ice cream fast!
Incredibly well made, jam-packed with the latest features and technology all wrapped up in a stylish design make this model my ‘best design‘ pick. I love it!

SMEG FAB32RPB5UK 60cm Retro Frost Free Fridge Freezer
Dimensions: (H)196.8 x (W)60.1 x (D)72.8
Capacity: 331 litres
Frost Free: Yes
Energy Rating: D
Key Features: Retro look and feel / 3 freezer drawers / Salad crisper drawer / Acoustic and visual open door alert
Looking for something a little different? Spice up your kitchen with this 50’s-style retro model from Smeg. Available in a variety of colourful options – I just happen to like this pastel blue.
The marvellous throwback design stands out in any modern or traditional kitchen, but this model offers more than just a walk down Memory Lane. You’ll also get 3 freezer drawers, including a highly versatile fast freezing drawer, and a salad crisper drawer for keeping your lettuce and other vegetables nice and fresh.
The open door alert gives you visual and audible cues so you won’t forget to close either door.
Keep in mind that this particular model is hinged on the right-hand side. Check if you want a left or right-handed door before buying as they are not reversible. Also, make sure there’s plenty of space (a gap of 175mm is sufficient) to allow the chunky retro rounded door to open.
While it’s certainly not the cheapest fridge freezer on my list it definitely has the most character and adds a certain wow factor to any kitchen!
