Subcold Eco100 LED Under-Counter White Fridge | Freestanding Refrigerator | Solid Door with Chiller Box | LED Light + Lock & Key | Energy Efficient (95L, White)

Ok, so I wanted to write an in depth review on the fridge for people as there seem to be a lot of fast reviews here, specially considering the sound which I'll go into in depth here too. I bought this to replace my Husky Coca Cola mini fridge which was great but after 4 years the fridge packed in and I needed a new one, which after browsing around this was the one I chose. Delivery - The fridge was delivered quickly and earlier than expected, the packaging of the fridge was great, really well packaged and very easy to get out. The box slides off the top so the fridge is already out as opposed to having to try get the fridge out of a square box, it's really good how it's packaged to be honest and makes it so easy to open up. Location - I have this next to my bed on a carpet which is absolutely fine, I will go into the noise in a bit however the fridge looks absolutely fine next to my bed and works well; it's a double bed with drawers at each side and the fridge is lower than the bed so isn't overly tall next to these things and it looks really nice. Space - There's a LOT of space in the fridge, more than you would expect!! As you can see from the photo's I've taken a few things to give people an idea of the size. The bottom shelf is very spacious, the pint glass (UFC) is a full size pint glass which is metallic within the glass (it's really nice actually from the UFC store) and the bottle is a 700ml bottle of Bailey's so you can get a good idea of the size and space with how much room there still is with those items. The concern for me was being able to fit 2 litre bottle's of pop (Pepsi, Coke etc. if you don't say pop ha) however there is plenty of space for this easily and you can fit a full 2 litre bottle in the door compartment and in the fridge itself, there's a lot of room so you won't have any problem (as long as you haven't packed the fridge with loads of other things) but you can get a lot in there alongside them very easily, it's very spacious!! Coldness - This is fantastic!! I'm really, really impressed with how cold it keeps the drinks as it's much better than my Husky fridge by far (I'm guessing most of you know how good Husky fridges are so this gives you an idea). I have the setting on 5 so just above the middle and it gives them that little extra coldness which is nice! The setting on 4 was ok, the drinks were getting nice and cold but being on 5 just seems perfect really and it's honestly really good! Sound - YES! The fridge DOES make quite a lot of sound BUT a lot of the reviews here are a little over exaggerated in my opinion! When I first got the fridge and turned it on and heard the sound I was also like "Oh no, this is noisy like people were saying" and was concerned about it BUT it doesn't really do it that long and I have noticed since it's been setup for just around 2 weeks now it's kind of calmed down quite a bit and did pretty quickly to be honest. When the fridge makes these noises it's usually for about 5 minutes if that and then the fridge is completely silent the rest of the time, like really silent, you don't hear anything at that point. Bare in mind I'm a very light sleeper and this is next to my bed but even on the first night of it being there it didn't disturb my sleep and was completely fine! You do also get used to it as well so you kind of don't hear it after a while, think of when you have a loud ticking clock in your room and eventually you don't hear the clock anymore, the fridge is like this so where as the first initial reaction for most people (and rightly so) would be that the fridge is noisy, it's really not as bad as you think and it does calm down to the point where you'd first hear the louder gargling noises people have mentioned when you set the fridge up which calms down to just a lower hum, then the rest of the time the fridge is silent; so if initially the sound seems a bit too much for you just give it time to settle and see what it's like within a couple of weeks, chances are you'll be fine with it and it's really not that bad! I also think the sound is to do with the ice box because my Husky fridge didn't have an ice box and I never heard these louder sounds (again, this calms down after the fridge has been settle for a while to just the regular hum all fridges make). I also noticed on the fridge downstairs which has an ice compartment that this fridge does this too which goes to show you only notice this when you listen for it, as otherwise it just becomes background noise but it does settle and it's really not as bad as some people have made out at all in my opinion, I think a lot of these have been initial reviews as opposed to waiting a while and letting the fridge settle. Ice Box - This is really good!! I saw a review earlier saying someone put an ice tray in and two days later no ice, this is baffling because it makes ice perfectly well and pretty fast too! I now have a bag full of ice in the compartment which I've created from ice cubes with an ice cube tray myself in the fridge and it's awesome!! It's not the most spacious ice box (which is a good thing really as you want more space in the fridge) and the door doesn't click shut like you would expect (this is not a bad thing, it's made this way for a reason), it basically rests against the ice box naturally and it's great. I will say however I did notice when putting the ice cube trays in that one or two near the door wouldn't be as frozen but this isn't a problem, just flip the ice tray round for a few hours and those cubes will ice so it's a really great little addition to the fridge where you can store ice cubes for drinks as and when you want them. All in all it's a really great fridge, the noise really isn't as bad as made out and it is quiet most of the time; as well as of course it settles a lot and pretty quickly too so I wouldn't worry about this at all. You're not going to get a fridge that's completely silent but you don't even notice it, unless of course you are specifically listening out for it but that is the case with anything really. It's very spacious, it's packaged and delivered well, it's very cool inside and really lovely for drinks (again, much better than my Husky fridge and that was good!) but I am really happy with the fridge and would recommend it. It also looks really nice and very stylish, plus the bonus of having a lock is pretty cool to stop anyone stealing your food and drinks so I'm really happy with it. I wanted to leave it a couple of weeks before writing this review to help people, specially with the noise thing that seems to be the thing it's criticised for the most however I hope this has helped a few people in regards to if they want to purchase this or not. If anything changes, I will amend my review however as of now it's been really good, works really well and as I say, I'm really happy with it and for £90 too at the time of this review for the 50 litre fridge, it's an absolute bargain for money, so I hope this helps :-)

I have had this fridge for about a month now and I am seriously impressed with it. Even with the thermostat at the mid point (3), the fridge keeps a constant 2-3 degrees inside. My milk and drinks come out lovely and chilled! It is the quietest fridge I have ever owned, you do hear a click when it comes on and goes off but it is very difficult to make out a sound from the fridge itself. I thought it had a little freezer at the top because I didn't read the product description properly, which is my fault entirely. The box at the top is a chiller box that will keep water based things frozen (such as ice cubes, ice lollies and ice cream), however it will not keep food frozen such as meat, vegetables etc. It seems the fridge hardly ever needs to come on so I am going to save a fortune on my electric bills. The fridge has plenty of room for one person, but any more than that might struggle for room. The only criticism I can come up with (and it isn't a biggie), is that the salad drawer in the bottom is extremely narrow. You can put fruit and loose vegetables in there but I did struggle to get a whole lettuce in it. I would certainly recommend this fridge and only time will tell how long it lasts.

Although the first fridge I was sent was DOA, SubCold were extremely helpful and responsive, and despite the defective unit arriving Saturday of a bank holiday weekend, by Wednesday I had a working replacement, the defective unit had been collected, and a refund for the defective unit was on its way. Top customer service. The fridge itself is very good. As others have noticed, although it looks quite compact from the outside it is surprisingly roomy on the inside. I am using it exclusively as a drinks fridge and I was able to easily fit 12 430ml cans, 12 330ml cans, 2 half bottles of wine and 2 bottles of water in it comfortably. if I wanted to be more clever there is still room to pack more, but for my needs it is full enough. The fridge works well. At the medium setting the drinks are all as cold as I need them to be and the compressor rarely needs to kick in; exactly as it should be. Although there is a bit of noise when the compressor kicks in, it is not too loud. Although I admit I notice it when it happens in the evening when the house is quiet, I am sure that within a month I will be so used to it I will no longer hear it. It is another of those noises in the house that one gets used to quickly and never pays attention to again. If I were to list any areas where there is some room for improvement there are two: Firstly, the temperature is not even around the fridge. But this is not a big deal and all fridges suffer this problem to some degree. Certainly it is no worse with this fridge than with other fridges I've used and one quickly learns where the coldest parts are. Secondly, the freezer compartment is a little disappointing. Although it does a great job freezing an ice cube tray sat at the bottom of the freezer, it does less well with additional trays stacked above the first. I have 3 trays stacked on top of each other and only the bottom one freezes, even after several days. The solution I found is to rotate the trays after the bottom one has frozen. Eventually the bottom and middle trays are and remain solidly frozen, and the top one ends up about 90% frozen - the ice cubes sit in a thin layer of liquid water. This is good enough for my needs, but I wish the freezer section worked just a little better so as not to need all the fuss to get 3 trays to freeze. The good news is the tray on the bottom always freezes. I haven't tried setting the fridge to a colder setting to see if it improves freezing, as it is more important to me that the fridge runs at its optimal efficiency. Tl;dr A very good fridge, very much recommended. If I ever needed another small fridge I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one of these.

I'm really pleased with the fridge a bit smaller than I expected but that's on me didn't check measurements. Saying that it holds all that my old fridge held. Arrived quickly and well packed, easy to set up don't know about the noise of it as I'm hard of hearing. All told well worth the money.
