Full review

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 were badly misaligned and one adjuster was not fitted correctly 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.
