What We Like

The 14-in-1 modes are it’s biggest highlight. You’re not just getting a convertible fridge, you’re getting a refrigerator that adapts to your lifestyle. Need extra freezer space during ice cream season? Done! Hosting a party and need extra fridge space? Switch modes! Going on vacation? Turn on holiday mode to save energy.

The system – featuring 1-hour Icing technology, is perfect for unexpected guests. Simply place your drinks in the designated cooling zone and they’ll be chilled in just 60 minutes. We’ve tested it multiple times, and it actually works.

Its capacity is the game changer. For example; my colleague buys groceries and stocks up every 14 days and even living with a joint family, he never feels the lack of space.

What Could Be Better

This 2-star rated model can be a bit concerning when considered in terms of energy consumption. Compared to a 5-star model with similar capacity, this fridge will add Rs. 2000-3000/- to your annual electricity bill and will increase your expenses by Rs. 20,000-30,000/- over the fridge’s 10-year lifespan.

It’s large size also means you’ll need to create a similar amount of space in your kitchen. Measure your kitchen layout carefully, as it won’t fit in compact spaces.

Some users have complained that the ice-making capacity, it’s decent, but isn’t proportional to the overall size of the fridge. If there are large parties, you may need backup ice trays.

Real Talk

It’s great for those with 5+ family members and prioritise capacity and versatility over energy efficiency. Also, it’s ideal for those who host guests frequently or run small home-based businesses.
