Fridges

We've tested over 50 fridges on food safety, temperature, and much more. Find the right fridge for your needs with our test results.

A new fridge should last 10 years or more, so it's important to make the right choice. Check out the top questions and features to look for from our fridge buying guide.

• Size and space: Make sure your fridge is the right fit for your kitchen.

• Energy Rating Labels explained: These labels can help you spot the energy-hungry models that can end up costing you more. We explain what Energy Rating labels are and how to read them.

• Interior layout: Finding the perfect fridge isn't just about exterior - it's also about the interior layout to suit your storage needs.

• Noise: The fridge is one of the few household appliances that is always running. This means a loud one can become a major annoyance.

• Buying second-hand: We tell you what you need to look for when buying a second-hand fridge.

We’ll only recommend fridges you’ll love to own, that work well and keep working well for a long time.
