Really disappointed. Loved it when it arrived but six weeks later the fridge has completely failed. An engineer has just visited and told me that there's a major problem with the gas so the fridge isn't working at all and the freezer won't be working at the right temperature either. As it's not fixable I'm waiting for a replacement from Smeg (during a heatwave) and I've spoken to Smeg Customer Services but they haven't been able to give me any idea of timescales and say it will be up to them to decide whether they sent a replacement out once they've read the engineers report. For the amount of money I've paid, I feel really let down especially because I have no idea how long I'll be without a fridge freezer. The warranty will cover a replacement or repair (I hope) but I don't get anything towards all the food which has gone off and which has had to be thrown away which is really annoying. I know Smeg have reliability issues but I'm pretty disappointed my brand new fridge freezer only lasted six weeks. The lads from AO who delivered it were super careful when they brought it in.

This is our second Smeg - the first is 16 years old and still going strong but has now been relegated to the garage because we needed a bigger freezer section. I have to say this is a thing of beauty and is super quiet - at most you can hear a gentle whirring. I am 5ft3in and was worried the top shelf of the fridge would be too high but it's fine. The only thing the fridge section is missing is a wine rack (this is an extra apparently) but other than that the storage options are flexible and more than enough for a family of four. The freezer section has three drawers... they have a catch at the back so they don't come falling out but you do have to pull them all the way out to see inside and when you do they sort of tip forwards for easy access. You have to bend down quite a bit to see inside the top drawer when the fridge door is shut (overhang) and the bottom drawer isn't as big as the other two but all three are deep and hold more than you think they will. I've currently got 5 or 6 900g bags of frozen chips/wedges in the middle one. What else to mention... there is an unobtrusive alarm if you leave the fridge door open for too long and the lights in the fridge are like something out of Star Trek. All in all, extremely happy :)

Love the look of the SMEG Fridge Freezer, it really brightens up the kitchen compared to my previous basic steel grey colour (not SMEG). The design is great and the shelves are well spaced. The brand letter detailing on the door compartment is low quality as the letters moved as I removed from the packaging. It is also quite noisy compared to my previous appliance which was less than 1/4 of the price.

A fantastic work of art on the outside and excellent functioning Fridge freezer on the inside.

The fridge looks good and has plenty of space in the freezer and fridge compartments. Could do with a bottle rack but that's not worth a lower score.

I’ve wanted this for years so I was so thrilled when it arrived. Looks stunning in my kitchen and beautiful quality

We had a Smeg Fridge before. We downsized to a smaller house so wanted a combined fridge freezer. With the fridge on top it’s so convenient, no bending down to get stuff from the fridge, it’s all at eye level. It looks fantastic too! The delivery guys from AO were great, putting Smeg in place and taking away the packaging.

What’s not to love about a Smeg. It’s retro, this model self defrosts and it just looks smart. Tall with plenty of room,and after my very old fridge finally giving up, it’s just great to have a new one. If you leave the door open too long an alarm goes of and the light flashes. It’s like a kitchen disco!!!
