Samsung RL33SBSW ( RL33SBSW1_XEE )

large capacity fridge with loads of shelf and door storage space

Freezer drawers don't open all the way - can be hard to put big items in and out,

Loud running sounds

A very well designed easy to maintain fridge/feezer. Particularly like the automatice defrost. Design makes excellent use of space and it is surprising how much food can be accommodated. Also very easy to keep clean.

Although it is quite quiet in operation it does make some very alarming clicking and cracking noises. To be fair the operation manual makes reference to these but they are much more frequent and louder than expected. If you buy this freezer be prepared...

Cheap, easy to use, well laid out, plenty of space.

Quite noisy - thermostat kicks in often. Sidewall heats up quite a bit.

Warning bell when door left open,

Doors are not reversable

Not too tall; quiet; economical (25% reduction in electricity used compared with Bosch predecessor measured by energy tracker), uses no power when not running. Salad drawer divider keeps small items from getting submerged.

Lip on door shelves wastes space. Egg rack fiddly. Freezer drawers need both hands to slide; not easy to access larger items in and out of top drawer.

Only had it 3 months and sheets of ice building up in the bottom of freezer section - we periodically have to chip out the large sheet of ice ! Also noisy and often sounds like a clockwork model some of the noises it produces. however we were warned of...

Clear fronts to the freezer drawers, good use of door space in fridge

Could be more flexibility in heights of fridge shelves.

Excellent space, cute and practical adjustable shelving.

Freezer compartments sticking from day one - bad design fault.

low energy

very loud noise, and not much freezer room and doors for freezer are very flimsey
