When I do my shopping, I like to stock up for the whole week. I prefer to buy a stock of products on offer. That's why it's nice that I have enough space for the groceries of 3 or 4 people with this fridge-freezer combination. I keep my fruit and vegetables crispy for longer thanks to the EasyFresh crisper drawer. I throw away apples and pears less quickly. The refrigerator is very sturdy, but the door opens a bit heavy. I use a little more force because of this, but I quickly get used to it.

First impression
When I open the refrigerator, I notice how spacious it is. With the 3 adjustable shelves, I can choose a convenient layout myself. When I have a birthday, I make extra space for, for example, a jug of homemade lemonade. I put my favorite wine in a stable position on the plastic bottle holder, which has room for 3 bottles. That way my white wine doesn't roll away. I see that I connect the fridge freezer combination to my smartphone with an app. It takes some time to connect these, I use the online manual for this.

Longer fresh
At the bottom of the fridge I find the EasyFresh drawer, a fresh zone for fruit and vegetables. This keeps my bunch of carrots fresh and I retain vitamins for longer. Thanks to the tight closure, my grapes do not dry out either. This way I prevent food waste, which is better for the environment and my wallet. At the end of the month I have more money left because I don't have to go to the supermarket as often.

Quiet in use
I also notice that I am not bothered by noise much. Occasionally I hear buzzing, but that's normal. With a noise level of 35 decibels, I can also put the fridge-freezer combination in a small or open kitchen. This way I can watch a movie or series in peace and I don't mind extra noise.

Ice-free thanks to NoFrost
I divide frozen products over the 3 freezer drawers at the very bottom. The largest drawer has room for 3 large pizza boxes. The transparent drawers allow me to see exactly which snacks I still have in stock. I have to defrost my old fridge-freezer combination a few times a year, but I don't have to with this one. With NoFrost, the freezer remains ice-free and I have no maintenance. That saves a lot of hassle.

Need more power
Due to the lack of a lever handle, the door opens a bit heavy. This causes the door to draw more vacuum. I therefore need more power, but I actually get used to it. For the design I like that this handle is not there. When I look at all the pros and cons, I am very pleased with this spacious fridge freezer combination.

Very nice fridge freezer, would buy it again. You do have to download the manual online, because the supplied booklets are meaningless. You set the temperature for the refrigerator and freezer manually, independently of each other. You have to confirm each entry with a button. The temperature has only been set when the number flashes. If it doesn't blink, it's waiting for your confirmation. And then you can wait a very long time for the refrigerator to cool.
