The Beko ASD241 is the cheapest American-style model we’ve tested, and one of the most affordable on the market, in fact. But while the price is low, the feature count is certainly not. This refrigerator configuration is loosely termed “French Style”, with a wide refrigerator space at the top featuring doors that open like a wardrobe. The fridge is properly cavernous at 289-litres, with four full-width shelves and two big salad drawers. V12 Finance and AppToPay is a trading name of Secure Trust Bank PLC, Yorke House, Arleston Way, Solihull, B90 4LH.
Last year we said Hisense’s FMN432A20C offered great features and impressive performance at a very attractive price. The new RQ560N4WC1 builds on the four-door French-Style theme with outstanding flexibility, excellent lighting in the fridge and freezer, and a new chilled-water container with handy dispenser on the front door. Secure Trust Bank PLC (register number 204550) is authorised by the PRA and regulated by the FCA and the PRA.These fridge freezers look great. We have a fantastic range of colours and styles, which means side by side models can become the centrepiece of your kitchen.
As with all fridges, if you have a hot kitchen or a family that are accessing the fridge and freezer all day long, these figures will climb significantly. However, in our repeatable base-line energy tests this Hisense came out very well indeed. This fridge freezer also claims to have frost-free multi-airflow cooling, which should minimise maintenance. Fuss-free and intuitive control of the entire operation is via a touch control on the left-hand door. Read the full review Simply fill the internal reservoir with fresh water and get perfectly cooled water at the touch of a button with our built-in water dispenser. Both freezers offer three drawers, the upper of which is an open-style bin for easy access. The lower left drawer houses a removable “twist and serve”-style ice cube maker and both compartments offer LED illumination – which we so rarely see in a freezer. Top marks all round, Hisense. Hisense RQ560N4WC1 – How much can you fit in?
Manual
With its stainless-steel effect finish, water dispenser and sophisticated-looking touch controls, the Hisense RQ560N4WC1 certainly makes a statement way beyond its price point. The good news is that this four-door fridge freezer has a roster of features to match its high-end look.
The Hisense Super Freeze functions rapidly stabilise the temperature of food as soon as you've put it in your freezer, which means it retains more nutrients and moisture, tastes great and stays as fresh as possible. The large fridge fared very well, with a narrow spread of temperatures from top to bottom and a mean average of pretty much 4 oC. Both salad drawers averaged just below 4 oC, which is ideal for salads and fresh fruit, and varied by just +/- 1 oC throughout. Given the sheer size of the freezer overall, though, these open top bins actually proved super-handy, so they got a thumbs-up in the end. The drawers below were fairly basic and, like the salad bins in the fridge, take a good solid tug to open and close when fully loaded. Twist ice cube trays can make a large volume of ice at once. A simple rotation will result in the ice cubes to drop into the ice box below. So even if you fancy a cold drink, your drinks will be beautifully chilled.We measured just 39dB on average, with an occasional peak to 40-41dB. That 39dB average is a superb figure and up there with some of the more affluent cutting-edge tech fridge freezers that use linear compressor motors. As with all traditional compressors they’ll become a little nosier over time, but only by a couple of dB… probably just about enough to get up to the figure of 43dB stated on the energy label.
