Written by Alex Carter

Alex compares cold-storage appliances around the practical bits buyers notice after delivery: fresh-food space, freezer split, door swing, kitchen depth, noise, running costs and whether the drawers suit real shopping habits.

Our winner

Hisense Fridge Freezer 50/50 Total No Frost - Black - RB327N4BBE

The Hisense is the one we would look at if freezer space that is not treated as an afterthought.

The 171L capacity is the number to pay attention to. In practice, that decides whether the weekly shop fits comfortably or whether you are still playing shelf Tetris after delivery.
