Hisense RS694N4ICF Freestanding American Side-by-Side Fridge Freezer - Total No Frost - Plumbed Water and Ice Dispenser - 562 liters - Stainless Steel - F Rated

Pro's - Looks great - Large storage space inside fridge and freezer - Non Plumbed ice machine is a game changer for hot summer days - Crushed ice option is fantastic - Fridge stays really cold -Freezer does not frost, so no more horrible scraping noises - Has wheels on the bottom for easy moving - Fresh food drawers really do work cons - Very large, had to remove door to kitchen to squeeze through, luckily we have double patio doors to back garden and a side alley which made delivery easy. make sure to measure your doors - Initial ice filling takes a very long time - Can randomly just stop making ice, but starts again after holing down some buttons to do a reset and water purge - Vents at top come outwards, meaning less space on top shelf - Water storage for ice takes up about 1/4 of a shelf

Massive fridge freezer. The ice dispenser is a brilliant. Crushed or cubed on demand.

After a very thorough investigation of the best American fridge freezer available on the market in the UK I decided to buy the Hisense RS694N4TBE free standing side by side American fridge freezer with non plumbing water and ice dispenser.The reviews were very positive with a negligible number of dissatisfied customers. The unit arrives superbly packed and extremely well protected and after removing the outside robust cardboard ,plastic covers and peeling off the thin plastic tape the unit revealed itself in all its splendour. The american style fridge freezer dream of my life has finally become a reality, it was majestically standing in front of me like a friendly giant robot ,you might not believe it but I gave it a big hug and my wife did not know whether to call 999 or not. The unit needs to rest for at least two hours before switching it on in order for the compressor liquids to settle but I wanted to be 100% sure so I plugged it the next day. The longest wait of my life I felt like a child the night before Christmas day,I could not wait to unwrap my amazing present. The next day early in the morning with my heart thumping I plugged the unit in and then opened the doors. Uhaaaaooowww the lights came on and the vision before my eyes reminded me of sunny Saint Peter square in Rome on Christmas day,by the way I am Italian from Rome so I know what Sain Peter square looks like at Christmas time. The space is incredible both on the fridge and freezer side with cleverly laid out compartments for fresh vegetables,fruit and lettuce and you have two of those.The shelves above and on the side of the unit expand and increase even further the storing space ,at last I finally have the right place for all my groceries. No more dead and wrotten cucumbers ,oubergines and crougettes and floppy cellery and carrotts not to mention the poor lettuce ,like it used to happen in my previous fridge, and no matter how careful I was in storing them the back always became a frozen graveyard. The very large draws hold cumfortably an enormous amount of vegetables and fruit and the beauty is that they are all visible so you always know what you need to buy. The space reserved to the meat and cold meats is exactly the same so no more rancid parma ham,mortadella or salame. My Parmiggiano Reggiano,mozzarella,scamorza and gorgonzola will also have a five star accomodation with the ample space available to them and what's, more no funny smells. I have already bought the appropriate cheese and cold meat plastic containers for my cheese and cold meat delicacies. The fridge unit can cumfortably host three bottles of wine and on the door side you can easily fit another four of your favourite drinks or mineral water. The freezer side is just as spacious and you can freeze food to your heart contempt with a powerful super fast freeze capability of - 24 degrees that you can use to quick freeze foodstuff that requires a fast freezing process. The cherry on top which makes you feel like a man who has arrived at the pinnacle of his life is the cold water,ice and crushed ice dispenser. Boy what a satisfaction to put my Campari and soda drink, my Aperol spritz or Gin and tonic, under the dispenser unit and just touch the ice or crushed switch and a waterfall of silver clear ice completes your drink in a real, I must say, sexy way. What a satisfaction !!! No more fighting with those flimsy ice bags or half empty ice cubes containers that everybody empties but nobody refillls. The ice and crushed ice perfomance is cleverly completed with a separate cold water despenser as well. The display panel is very futuristic and modern but very functional,easy to use and understand. Take a chair sit in front of it and it is like being in an electric car. The unit is extemely silent you can hardly hear it.Its style and legance will enhance even the most sofisticated and refined kitchens.I chose the black unit and it looks as if a tuxedo has been wrapped around the fridge-freezer,I think I'll buy two bow ties one for he fridge and one for the freezer to enhance and complete its elegance. Hisense offers two years warranty, I must say a little mean on their side,they could have made it at least three. It is all I want fom an American style deepfreezer-fridge,it meets all my expectations and gives me joy and pleasure every time I use it,after all I came into this world to enjoy myself. It is my companion that protects one of my most precious assett in life, food, and you will know what I mean when you go to buy one Kg. of Parmiggiano Reggiano 36 months old. I have called my unit after my best friend Giancarlo hoping that like him it will be as reliable and always there for me. Lello

The delivery was fine but they are not allowed to unpack it for you, which means you need a *lot* of space for the box; it didn't fit through our standard front door so we had to bring it around the back and through the conservatory double doors. After that though, actually unpacking the box was way easier than I thought it would be. The fridge looks good and works well. It's quiet but not silent, especially when ice is dropping into the bucket - only an issue for me late at night. The water tank is very large but water is dispensed a bit slowly - outside of the hottest days of the summer I find my tap water adequately cold anyway, so I mostly just use the ice maker and the tank lasts a long time. The shelves in the fridge door are really good for condiment bottles and the amount of space in this thing is a big step up in general over our old integrated fridge/freezer. The only negative I have is that the glossy black finish picks up finger prints very easily, and it's impossible not to touch it when you open/close the door, so most days we end up wiping them off at some point. A small issue for a huge fridge/freezer with ice maker/crusher at this incredibly low price (bought at £650, if memory serves)!

Water cold as you want great product Will never buy anything else

We bought a Hisense American fridge freezer which is working fine however It has quite a big 2 yr guarantee sticker on the front of the fridge This sticker is glued on so when we removed it it scratched and discoloured the front of the fridge where it had been We contacted Amazon to let them know about it to say we were not happy and they offered us a replacement or refund , we chose replacement as the fridge itself is great The customer service advisor online was very helpful and ordered us another fridge however we did say that they need to take the sticker off the front before delivering it or we would have same problem again Unfortunately once it arrived it had the same sticker glued in same place so we would have same issue We contacted Amazon again to see if they could part refund to help pay for repair and they said all they could do is replace or refund I asked again if they could pay to have it repaired or for us to have it repaired as we like the fridge and everything else was great They said no only refund or replacement They eventually said that they could only give us a £84 part refund which was an insult as we will have to pay double that to have the facia repaired Even though it is a lovely looking fridge and very spacious please be careful when ordering because of this sticker as it is not small and the damage it does is not good
