Hotpoint HDR 190 Drawer Fridge
Review of Hotpoint HDR190I by
skwirrel
Advantages: Looks great, Quiet, Can see all contents
Disadvantages: Too expensive, No interior light????, Quality control suspect
Just bought this fridge, didn't realise it was built in Italy or I woulndn't have bothered as I know the cars they build are all looks and very tinny and unreliable. £800 for a fridge inc. the drawer fronts and you dont even get a light inside the bloody thing. Just taken me 2 nights to set this up straight as the drawer fronts were warped and would not adjust up properly. Had to pack them with cardboard to make them line up. Out of the box the drawers ... ...so the attention to quality control at the factory is not up to much.
It looks great fitted but it is definatly not worth the money so if you want my advice pls consider all options before going for this model.
Good points:
1 Looks great
2 Allows more worktop area than an upright fridge and can see contents better
3 Quiet runner
Bad points:
1 Too expensive
2 Quality average
3 No interior light at all?????
Hope this helps. ...

RL175 Fridge - don't bother
Review of Hotpoint RLA 175 by
DavinderY
Advantages: Door fixed so it doesn't swing
Disadvantages: Door shelves too shallow; shelves too few and too narrow
We were given this as a replacement for the RL80 - it is no where near as good -it's going back The long shelves in the door are less deep than the RL80 model and so you cannot stand a large milk container with the handle out; nor can you store margerine or butter tubs right way up - only fit if lying on their side! Their is big capacity, BUT the shelf system is limited to only 4 (previously 7) variations and so you cannot put extra shelves in even ...

Electrolux Fridge and Freezer
Review of Electrolux ERES 31800 X by
ambrigen
Advantages: Appearance and features
Disadvantages: Terrible customer service, product quality and accessory support
...cylinder was ordered from the Electrolux Distributor in Scotland.. after 8 weeks of waiting and several misleading invoices claiming parts had already been delivered, I was told that Electrolux do not provide replacement sparking water cylinders to their UK customers, only to customers in Germany, Switzerland and France. If this is the case, which it does indeed appear to be as no-one knows where to order them from then the fridge should not be sold ...

Electrolux Fridge with Sparkling Water
Review of Electrolux ERES 31800 X by
madammadness
Advantages: Looks nice, Easy to clean, Dispenses cold water
Disadvantages: Cannot get gas for the sparkling water
...existing cylinders. I have contacted Electrolux customer service and they have not been able to help. In fact, they gave me the run around! For this reason, I have to rate this item as "Very Poor", especially when you consider how much it cost. I wouldn't recommend you buy one of these fridges until Electrolux sort out the gas cylinder supply problem, Julie C ...

HOTPOINT RL150
Review of Hotpoint RL150 by
littlemissvicki
Advantages: Stylish, Good Price, Lots of room
Disadvantages: Door does always shut, when slammed
I always wanted a stand alone fridge, especially when I was expecting my second kid, due the space I needed for bottles and as I was now a stay at home mum I bought all fresh foods to cook with and my fridge freezer just didn't have the room. I looked long and hard to fine this product, it is stylish, excellent price and lots of room. I especially like the salad compartment, this is very large compared to others I looked at. This fridge has one less ... ...is very deep you don't need an extra shelve. I usually buy two - three weeks worth of shopping at once, so at the beginning of the month my fridge is completely full and I manage to get everything in, even all my fresh meat that I haven't had time to seperate and freeze. The one down fall is the door, you need to make the feet at the front of the fridge taller than the back otherwise the door will not shut when to push it and walk away it will slam ...
